FX.co ★ Forecast for EUR/USD on September 5, 2023

EUR/USD

Yesterday, the euro gained 19 pips despite a relatively muted day. From a technical perspective, the situation has not changed. A close below 1.0774 would pave the way for the bears to reach 1.0692. However, there is a nuance here – it could break the support or a false consolidation to create a distinct convergence with the oscillator rather than leaving it weak as we see it now. On the other hand, it could gradually rise towards the nearest resistance level at 1.0834, then 1.0865, and ultimately 1.0931.

On the 4-hour chart, we have a neutral situation because the price is moving sideways within the 1.0774-1.0834 range. The Marlin oscillator is also moving sideways, and the price is below both indicator lines, and there is no clear direction.

There are no clues on the external side. In the euro area, the composite PMI index for August is expected to fall from 48.6 to 47.0. In the United States, factory orders for July are expected to fall by 2.5%. We await further developments.
