Euro declined 1.1 percent week on week on the back of negative global market sentiments along with concerns that talks amongst European leaders to overcome the crisis is coming to a stalemate. European leaders are disagreeing over the banking union, Greece ongoing debate on how to meet the bailout commitments. Further strength in the DX also exerted downside pressure on the currency. The currency touched a weekly low of 1.2919 and closed at 1.2979 on Friday. Outlook We, expect Euro to trade on a negative note on the back of bearish global market sentiments along with strength in the DX. Additionally, the ongoing disagreements amongst the European leaders over the banking union are also expected to pressurize the currency on the downside. However, favorable data expected during the day might cushion sharp depreciation in the currency. Technical Outlook
