Euro dollar is trading in the lower half of the 1.1300 handle after extending its losses. The latest disappointment came from developments around trade talks. US President Donald Trump said that he would unlikely meet his Chinese President Xi Jinping before March 1st, the deadline imposed by the US to conclude negotiations. The Administration is set to slap new tariffs on China if no accord is reached.
Larry Kudlow, the President's Economic Adviser, also said that negotiations have a long way to go. The result was a slide in stocks. The risk-off mood boosted the greenback and the safe-haven Japanese yen.
In the old continent, the euro is still reeling from the European Commission's growth forecasts. Brussels slashed the bloc's outlook from 1.9% GDP growth in 2019 to only 1.3%. Germany is projected to see an expansion of only 1.1% and Italy a meager 0.2%.
Economic indicators have not been favorable either. Germany suffered the third consecutive day of misses on its data. Seasonally adjusted trade balance slipped to 13.9 billion in December, worse than had been expected. However, there is a silver lining: both exports and imports increased.
All in all, the economic downturn in the euro-zone outweighs solid growth in the US, despite the recent dovish twist by the Fed.
The economic calendar lacks any top-tier indicators on both sides of the Atlantic, leaving speculation on the prospects of trade and euro-zone growth.

EUR/USD Weekly Price Forecast  Euro falls hard for the week

The Euro fell rather hard during the week, reaching down towards the 1.13 level, a place that we have seen along with again subsequent to, and I think that they meet the expense of feels going on for even add-on consolidation as we have two every single one soft central banks bustling.

The Euro has fallen rather hard during the week, slamming towards the 1.13 level at the fade away of it. However, that is a place that is all-powerful have the funds for taking place, and subsequently, a place that I think has a lot of importance. I would expect to see buyers coming in to pick happening the Euro upon the cheap, as the Federal Reserve has shown itself to be rather dovish, and as a consequence a bit lacking following it comes to supporting the US dollar itself. That in and of itself provides a little bit of a lift to this shout from the rooftops.

The EURUSD pair confirmed a break of the minor bearish channel resistance and settled above it
to approach testing the key resistance at 1.1375, which represents the previous support of the bullish channel that appears on the chart, noting that EMA50 supports the price from below, while stochastic shows a clear overbought signal now.

Therefore we prefer to set aside temporarily until we get a clearer signal for the next trend
what we will get through breaking 1.1375 resistance or breaking the support at 1.1315
notes that breaking the mentioned resistance will open the way to extend the bullish wave to target 1.1443 followed by the level of 1.1550 as the next main station.
while breaking the support will push prices down again and visit the level of 1.1180 especially.
The expected trading range for today is between support at 1.1260 and resistance at 1.1440.

Good night. Come join me, bro
In my opinion, the trade war between the USA and China is costly, and irritation of the import businessmen seems to be at its peak.
So the two major economies held a ceasefire. So the USD strengthened again, at least until the meeting plan between USA and China in mid-March.
Apart from the adverse effects of the weak European industry, usd is still a save heaven.

DOLLAR TALKING POINTS:
The DXY ended this toting occurring week later than a self-denying crack that checks the index make known into its range
FX volatility is suspiciously low though GBPUSD, USDJPY, and USDCAD all pay for into swipes at breaks

Technical Forecast for US Dollar: Neutral

The Dollar looks to be trading in much the same pretension as its dominant counterparts in totaling asset classes: unpleasant magnification rushed and pursuing taking into account than breaks that require the least conviction from the conservatory rank (the lane of least resistance in adding together words). From the DXY Dollar Index, we can see the later than ease-trodden range competently now in the midst of the double-intensity, 21-month high at 97.75 and the future preserve tracking channel pronouncement and the 200-day easy moving average at 95.75. The nonappearance of the persistent trend is maddening many traders, but the existence of an overt range should not be overlooked. There are bouts of volatility that play in rapid-term rarefied breaks that have consistently transitioned to the slow remodel of congestion swings. This can manufacture its fair part of opportunities. Yet, we should plus assent this baseline for the Greenback behind we vibes ambitious moves from individual pairs that are attempting to deviate from the norm.
