EUR/USD staged an impressive recovery from the lows. But can it continue forward? Here are some doubts.
Here is their view, courtesy of eFXdata:
BTMU Research discusses EUR/USD outlook from the risk-premium perspective which has been building in the price as of late on the back of the political developments in Italy.
“The ECB QE announcement created around 7-8 big figures of risk premium into EUR/USD while Brexit prompted roughly six big figures and the French presidential election 5 big figures.
We estimate around 3 big figures of risk is now priced in, which based on past examples could certainly increase further. Our short-term regression models indicate a similar story while the IMM data on leverage short euro positions as a percentage of open interest remains remarkably low – there is certainly scope for this EUR move to extend further lower,†BTMU argues.
