The number of Americans asking for new unemployment benefits unexpectedly jumped last week: 770,000 vs the expected 704,000. It seems that everything has been done to improve the indicators of the labor market: $1.9 trillion stimulus package was unveiled and the vaccination pace was really fast. Thus, the fact that the numbers came out worse than anticipated surprised investors.
As a rule, the poor data weakens the currency. But despite this rule, the USD surged and pressed down its peers. EUR/USD has broken through the 50-period moving average of 1.1915, clearing the way down to the recent lows of 1.1890. The move below this support will press the pair down to the low of March 10 at 1.1870. On the flip side, if it jumps above the high of March 15 at 1.1955, it may rise to the 38.2% Fibonacci level at 1.1990.
The US dollar index keeps rounding above the 103.60 historical support level. The buyers have already defended this level for three weeks, highlighting their interest in the greenback. Thus, buying USD looks less risky right now.
On the H4 timeframe, the US dollar index has formed a bullish falling wedge. At the beginning of the trading session, the price is testing the upper border of this wedge. Thus, in case of a higher-than-expected Core PCE Price Index m/m, the US dollar will skyrocket against other currencies.
