Deviation impact on EUR/USD

Readers can find FX Street's proprietary deviation impact map of the event below. As observed the reaction in case of a relative deviation of +0.81 or higher is likely to be around 29-pips in the first 15-minutes and could stretch to 56-pips in the following 4 hours.

Alternatively, a deviation of -0.73 or less could move the pair higher by around 25-pips in the first 15-minutes and 57-pips in the subsequent 4-hours.

How could it affect EUR/USD?

Yohay Elam, FXStreet's own Analyst explains: “The Technical Confluences Indicator shows that the pair broke above a significant line of resistance at 1.1350 which now turns into support. The move opens the door to higher levels. At 1.1395 we see the confluence of the Pivot Point one-week Resistance 1 and the Fibonacci 38.2% one-month. Further above, the next target is 1.1438 where we see the convergence of the Fibonacci 23.6% one-month, the Bollinger Band 4h-Upper, and the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 2.”

“Looking back down, we see further substantial support at 1.1332 which is the SMA 5-4h, the Fibonacci 23.6% one-day, and the Fibonacci 61.8% one-month,” he added further.
