  • The start of the European trading session has been volatile for the euro. After the releases of French flash services and flash manufacturing PMIs, where the actual figures came out higher than the forecasts, EUR/USD tested the 1.1160 resistance level, but inched lower on the disappointing German PMIs and flash manufacturing PMI for the Eurozone. Further attention of traders will be on the ECB meeting at 14:45 MT. If the ECB is hawkish, the pair will rise above the 1.1137 and 1.1151 levels, where it may retest the 1.1160 resistance level. If this level is broken, the next key resistance for bulls will be placed at 1.1172. On the other hand, if the ECB is dovish, EUR/USD will slide below the 1.1130 level. After that, reaching the support level at 1.1120 seems possible. The next key level from the downside will be placed at 1.11.

If buyers continue to dominate in the market, the 108.7 level will be broken. A further rise will be limited by the 108.77 and 108.85.

After that, the $1,483 level will be important. Buyers will be looking for the retest of the $1,493.2 level. Further resistance levels will be placed at $1,495, $1,497 and $1,500.
