This pair is now trading at the March 2021 swing low and looks set to test the double bottom set in the autumn of 2020 and the 1.1600 level. With US jobs data picking up and inflation metrics sustaining over several months the market is pricing in the higher probability that there will be rate hikes from the Federal Reserve and a tapering of assets. Higher inflation is bad for the currency but the yields that will no doubt go higher with a higher interest rate become more attractive to forex money managers, as the European Central Bank will remain dovish for some time.
