Forex Market: EUR/NZD daily forecast

During yesterday’s trading session EUR/NZD traded within the range of 1.5752-1.5868 and closed at 1.5794, losing 0.3% on a daily basis.

At 7:37 GMT today EUR/NZD was adding 0.17% for the day to trade at 1.5811. The pair touched a daily high at 1.5831 at 1:30 GMT.

Fundamental view

At 11:45 GMT the European Central Bank (ECB) is to announce its decision in regard to borrowing costs. The median estimate by experts suggests that the central bank will probably maintain its benchmark interest rate at the record low level of 0.15% at the policy meeting today. The ECB cut borrowing costs by 0.10% at its meeting on June 5th. Short-term interest rates are of utmost importance for the valuation of national currencies. In case the central bank is dovish about inflationary pressure in Euro zone’s economy and thus, either puts interest rates on hold, or reduces them, this will usually have a bearish effect on the common currency.

The interest rate decision will be followed by a press conference of the ECB President Mario Draghi, at which he will take a statement on monetary policy. During this event volatility of euro crosses is usually high. In case Draghi offers a more hawkish tone, the euro will usually receive support, while a more dovish tone will have a bearish effect on the currency. The press conference is scheduled at 12:30 GMT.
