The European economy trudged along with meager growth from the first quarter, lacking the oomph needed to gain momentum. As inflation persists and groceries become pricier, people become more reluctant to part with their hard-earned paychecks. The recent 0.1% increase from the previous quarter falls short of expectations, and the United States isn't faring much better, fueling concerns of a potential recession in the world's largest economy. Luckily, the eurozone managed to avoid a winter recession, partly due to mild weather that eased pressure on natural gas supplies. However, with Russia's reduction in gas supply due to its conflict with Ukraine, European governments and utilities are scrambling to find alternative sources to keep homes warm and industries running. It's an interesting dance the European economy is performing, and as forex traders, it's essential to watch these developments.
There’s been a notable steady decline in the exchange rate of the Euro to the Great British Pound, as seen in the chart above. However, the movement still seems to have a long way to go. This means we may see more bearish pressure on the Euro possibility until the price reaches the highlighted pivot zone.
Analyst’s Expectations:
Direction: Bearish
Target: 0.84626
Invalidation: 0.85993
EURAUD has reached an important demand zone and is stalling in hopes of a strong price movement in favor of either direction. At this time, my sentiment on EURAUD is bullish mainly based on the following sentiments;

Now this analysis is from a pretty high timeframe - the weekly timeframe. As such, it is important to understand that proper confirmation must be sought from lower timeframes like the 4 Hours and the Daily timeframe. The EURJPY chart shows price trading within a rising wedge while approaching an area of resistance. The bearish sentiment is supported by confluences from the resistance trendline, the pivot zone, and the Fair-Value-Gap (FVG) on the monthly timeframe.
Analyst’s Expectations:
Direction: Bearish
Target: 150.276
Invalidation: 159.208
EURCAD started a sluggish bull run a few days ago. The movement is losing some steam at the moment. However, I expect to see a continuation of the bullish movement after the completion of a slight bearish retracement. Though there seems to be just a little to go on, as far as confluences are concerned, the price action on the lower timeframe would judge the final outcome.
Analyst’s Expectations:
Direction: Bullish
Target: 1.45455
Invalidation: 1.43289
