EUR/USD moves sideways amid oversold readings
- The EUR continues to trade in the sideways manner below 1.20.
- The 14-day relative strength index (RSI) shows oversold conditions.
- Bull RSI divergence in the 4-hour chart, so cannot rule out the possibility of a corrective rally.
The EUR/USD pair will likely trade in the sideways manner below 1.20 and could witness a minor corrective rally, courtesy of oversold conditions.
As of writing, the spot is trading at 1.1965 and the daily RSI is holding below 30.00, signaling short-term oversold conditions. Further, the RSI in the 4-hour chart created higher lows even as the spot fell to 1.1910 (lowest level since late December), signaling a bullish divergence.
Hence, a corrective rally could be on the cards. A better-than-expected German factory orders figure (due at 06:00 GMT) and sentix investor confidence (due at 08:30 GMT) could become a reason for a corrective rally.
That said, the focus on the growing Fed and ECB monetary policy divergence will likely keep the gains under check.
