FxWirePro- EURUSD Trade Idea

EUR/USD is consolidating in a narrow range after more than 250 pips decline.  It hits  a intraday  high of 1.14216 and currently trading around 1.13842.

In April 2025, the ECB lowered its deposit rate by 25 basis points to 2.25%, its sixth consecutive cut since June 2024, and lowered the 2025 Eurozone growth forecast to 0.9% on softer US tariff risks and subdued inflation. This aggressive loosening is the opposite of the Fed's prudence, widening the USD-EUR yield difference and fueling expectations for further ECB cuts in 2025. U.S. tariffs would halve Eurozone growth, and while core inflation remains near 2%, falling energy prices and sluggish demand limit the upside. Consequently, the trade-weighted euro index has declined approximately 3% since March 2025, with EUR/USD lingering at 1.10–1.14, bogged down by dollar strength and ECB dovishness.

Technical Analysis of EUR/USD

The pair is holding above short and long-term moving averages in the 4-hour chart.

On the downside, support is seen at 1.1300 any violation below will drag the pair to 1.1270/1.1240/1.1150/1.11000/1.10840/1.1000.
