EUR/AUD Price Forecast: Climbs and challenges head-and-shoulders neckline

update 2024.11.27 07:02

  • EUR/AUD trades at 1.6209, marking a second consecutive day of gains, with a daily high of 1.6244.
  • Resistance levels: 50-day SMA at 1.6261, followed by 1.6300, and the 100-day SMA at 1.6365.
  • Support levels: 1.6200, 1.6161 (Nov 7 low), and key psychological level at 1.6100.

The EUR/AUD advanced for the second straight day, as Trump's threatening to impose tariffs on China was a headwind for the Aussie Dollar. Therefore, the cross-pair rose over 0.50% and traded at 1.6209 at the time of writing.

EUR/AUD Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The EUR/AUD's downtrend remains intact, with the pair registering a successive series of lower highs and lower lows. Even though the pair hit a daily high of 1.6244, near the day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 1.6261, sellers stepped in, dragging prices below the head-and-shoulders neckline.

If EUR/AUD climbs past the 50-day SMA, the next resistance would be the 1.6300 figure. A breach of the latter will expose the 100-day SMA at 1.6365, followed by the 200-day SMA at 1.6373.

Conversely, If EUR/AUD drops below 1.6200, the next support would be the November 7 low of 1.6161, followed by the psychological figure of 1.6100. UP next would be the November 25 low of 1.6003, followed by the November 22 low of 1.5963.

Euro FAQs

The Euro is the currency for the 19 European Union countries that belong to the Eurozone. It is the second most heavily traded currency in the world behind the US Dollar. In 2022, it accounted for 31% of all foreign exchange transactions, with an average daily turnover of over $2.2 trillion a day. EUR/USD is the most heavily traded currency pair in the world, accounting for an estimated 30% off all transactions, followed by EUR/JPY (4%), EUR/GBP (3%) and EUR/AUD (2%).

The European Central Bank (ECB) in Frankfurt, Germany, is the reserve bank for the Eurozone. The ECB sets interest rates and manages monetary policy. The ECB's primary mandate is to maintain price stability, which means either controlling inflation or stimulating growth. Its primary tool is the raising or lowering of interest rates. Relatively high interest rates - or the expectation of higher rates - will usually benefit the Euro and vice versa. The ECB Governing Council makes monetary policy decisions at meetings held eight times a year. Decisions are made by heads of the Eurozone national banks and six permanent members, including the President of the ECB, Christine Lagarde.

Eurozone inflation data, measured by the Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP), is an important econometric for the Euro. If inflation rises more than expected, especially if above the ECB's 2% target, it obliges the ECB to raise interest rates to bring it back under control. Relatively high interest rates compared to its counterparts will usually benefit the Euro, as it makes the region more attractive as a place for global investors to park their money.

Data releases gauge the health of the economy and can impact on the Euro. Indicators such as GDP, Manufacturing and Services PMIs, employment, and consumer sentiment surveys can all influence the direction of the single currency. A strong economy is good for the Euro. Not only does it attract more foreign investment but it may encourage the ECB to put up interest rates, which will directly strengthen the Euro. Otherwise, if economic data is weak, the Euro is likely to fall. Economic data for the four largest economies in the euro area (Germany, France, Italy and Spain) are especially significant, as they account for 75% of the Eurozone's economy.

Another significant data release for the Euro is the Trade Balance. This indicator measures the difference between what a country earns from its exports and what it spends on imports over a given period. If a country produces highly sought after exports then its currency will gain in value purely from the extra demand created from foreign buyers seeking to purchase these goods. Therefore, a positive net Trade Balance strengthens a currency and vice versa for a negative balance.
