Mar 15, 2017 - FOMC hiking...and EURUSD towards 0.9500 ?

...a long awaited "D" day is here again:

EURUSDcrucial for bulls to stay above 1.0505/15 level
Still within the wider range 1.0500/1.0850
Tomorrow’s trading (after FOMC) to show further direction
But wouldn’t be surprised if we stayed range bound again


Base setup – a contrarian view:

ECB can not be dovish going to G20 and on German higher rates hopes
Should Germany want higher rates and higher currency, the Germanexit needs to take place
USD not reacting to strong data doesn’t mean bearish view
Monthly chart setup showing strong demand around 1.0500 level
FOMC can give the confirmation to break the level and head to parity
Than to 0.9500 in medium term
Likely this move will be accompanied by spike toward 1.0750/0850 as market will look for liquidity

Yields expected to spike up but correct in the coming days (as history shows)
10-yr Trys yield likely to test 2.64% level that contained the recent selloff

If Fed not convincing about higher pace of rate hikes due to Trump policy uncertainty
USD selloff to follow what will hurt more then stronger currency
Looks like being bullish USD is an edge and market is positioning for weaker USD

On the other hand ECB and FOMC will need to take into account lower oil prices
And their impact on inflation at some point


...also today:

Dutch elections (polling stations close at 2000 GMT, first exit polls to start right after)

US debt ceiling deadline

Good luck Champs!
