EUR/USD slips to 1.1160

FXStreet (Edinburgh) - The common currency intensifies its intraday bearishness on Tuesday, with EUR/USD now visiting session lows around 1.1160.

EUR/USD down from 1.1210

The pair quickly faded the spike to session highs around 1.1210 following the auspicious results from the German retail sales during January. However, the upside lost impetus and prompted spot to give away gains and return below 1.1200 the figure along with the European opening.

Empty docket in Euroland for the rest of the day plus second-tier releases in the US economy will leave the pair to the mercy of the risk appetite trends, with 1.1160-1.1220 the likely daily range.
