EUR/USD kicks heels before the ECB, above 1.36 again

FXStreet (Moscow) - EUR/USD opened the day at 1.3598, slid to session low at 1.3594, and rebounded to 1.3613 at the moment.

Two-staged moves

The euro is agitated, recovering above 1.36 in expectation of the key events of the day. The day X has come with ECB on the brink of new era of monetary easing. Today the pair may move in two stages, first, reacting to the ECB meeting with a high possibility of lowering of the three key rates; and second, reacting to Draghi comments as only he may present the new non-conventional measures to stimulate economy. Any kind of disappointment with the scope of tools implemented may support the single currency and send it higher with initial target at 1.3627 resistance, followed by 1.3655.
