EUR/USD regains 1.1060 and beyond

FXStreet (Edinburgh) - After bottoming out in the 1.1030 area in early trade, a renewed buying interest has lifted EUR/USD back to the 1.1060/65 band.

EUR/USD capped by 1.1090

The pair has recovered the smile following a bout of weakness around the US dollar, dragging it to session lows when tracked by the USD Index (DXY). Absent releases in Euroland and with Greek developments momentarily in the back burner, the pair’s price action hinges almost exclusive on the risk appetite trends and USD-dynamics.

Later on in the session, the FOMC will conclude its 2-day meeting, with consensus amongst traders expecting the greenback could be supported by the Committee’s tone of the statement.
