Forecast for EUR/USD on February 8. Joachim Nagel: rates are not restrictive

On Tuesday, the EUR/USD pair reversed in favor of the euro, returning to the previous level of 1.0750. The US dollar benefited from the quotes' recovery from this level, and today the decline can be resumed in the direction of the correction level of 161.8%, or 1.0614. The likelihood of continued growth in the direction of the Fibo level of 200.0% - 1.0869 will increase if the rate of the pair is fixed above the 1.0750 level.

I can point to two things that happened yesterday that were extremely fascinating. These are Joachim Nagel and Jerome Powell's performances. Powell's speech will be covered in an article on the pound-dollar, while I will concentrate more on the second. According to Nagel, a member of the ECB governing Council, the present rate has not yet reached a restrictive level. The pace at which the economy starts to contract, business activity declines, unemployment rises, and labor market contracts are known as the restrictive level. The consumer price index is also declining at the same time, which is exactly what the ECB wants for the upcoming year or two. If you accept Nagel's assertions, the ECB rate will increase throughout this year, not only twice in March and April. Since inflation is still high, it seems likely that we will discuss at least 4 increases. This feature is advantageous for the euro and creates promising opportunities for 2023. The Fed rate won't be able to see a comparable increase because it is getting close to its maximum. Due to the strong sell signal on the 4-hour chart, the European is currently falling and may continue to do so for several months. But as the year progresses, the euro may once more overtake the dollar as the dominant currency. In particular, it would be useless for the Fed to tighten its rate more if US inflation continued to decrease at the current rate.

The pair is still declining on the 4-hour chart and has managed to stay under the upward trend corridor. Since the pair left the corridor where they had been since October, I believe this moment to be of utmost importance. The current "bearish" trading sentiment offers the US dollar good growth chances with targets of 1.0610 and 1.0201. Emerging divergences are currently undetectable in any indication.

Report on Commitments of Traders (COT):

This image is no longer relevant

Speculators opened 9,464 long contracts and 2,099 short contracts during the most recent reporting week. Major traders' attitude is still "bullish" and has somewhat improved. Currently, 238 thousand long futures and 103 thousand short contracts are all concentrated in the hands of traders. The COT figures show that the European currency is now rising, but I also see that the number of Long positions is over 2.5 times greater than the number of Short positions. The likelihood of the euro currency's growth has been steadily increasing over the past few months, much like the euro itself, but the information background hasn't always backed it up. After a protracted "dark time," the situation is still favorable for the euro, therefore its prospects are still good. Until the ECB gradually raises the interest rate by increments of 0.50%, at least.

United States and European Union news calendars:

There are no noteworthy events scheduled for February 8 in either the economic calendars for the US or the EU. Today's traders won't be affected by the information background's sentiment.

Forecast for EUR/USD and trading advice:

On a 4-hour chart, I suggested selling the pair when it closed below the corridor. The targets are 1.0614 and 1.0750. The initial target has been accomplished, thus the transactions can now be maintained open. On the 4-hour chart, purchases of the euro currency are conceivable when it recovers from the level of 1.0610 with a target of 1.0750. Or when the price is anchored above 1.0750 with a target of 1.0869 on the hourly chart.

GBP/USD。分析與預測

今天,英鎊/美元(GBP/USD)貨幣對在1.3430–1.3435水平盤整,略高於亞洲交易時段登記的三週低點,這是由於市場期待美國消費者通脹數據的出爐。同時,基本面因素支持看跌情景,暗示下一次價格走勢可能是向下的。

2025年7月15日GBP/USD匯率預測

在小時圖上,英鎊/美元貨幣對於週一繼續下跌,到一天結束時已達到1.3425–1.3444的支撐區。從該區域反彈將有利於英鎊,並引導其升向127.2%的斐波那契水平,即1.3527。

儘管可能會回調至其最近的支撐位,但USD/CHF在2025年7月15日星期二仍然有可能恢復其看漲傾向。

USD/CHF - 2025年7月15日,星期二。 由於EMA(50)與EMA(200)之間形成的黃金交叉狀態顯示買方仍佔主導地位,儘管近期RSI (14)處於中性熊市水平,有可能出現調整。

如果歐元兌美元在其第一阻力位守住阻力,2025年7月15日(星期二),歐元兌美元可能再次走弱。

EUR/USD - 星期二,2025年7月15日。 儘管RSI(14)位於55.39(中性-偏多),但EMA(50)低於EMA(200),這表明儘管有向上回撤,但下行的潛在偏向仍然存在。

在從146.11支撐位反彈後,美元/日元貨幣對已達到日線圖楔形形態的上軌,目前目標是148.66阻力位(5月12日高點)。 若能在此水平上方整固,將打開通往151.30的道路。

美元/日圓:分析與預測

美元/日元組合保持在接近三週高點的盤整階段,由於美元走強及市場信號不一的支持。 美國總統唐納德·特朗普威脅從8月1日起對來自墨西哥和歐盟的進口徵收30%的關稅,這增加了對避險貨幣(包括日元)的需求。
