Forex: EUR/USD flat after Italian, EMU data
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The single currency remained muted after the Italian industrial sector extended its negative momentum in February, with Industrial Orders contracting 7.9% over the last twelve months and Industrial Sales following suit, down 4.7% YoY. Further data showed that the EMU Current Account surplus widened to €12.1 billion in February from January’s deficit of €5.6 billion (revised).
Still no news from the Italian elections, as politicians continues to struggle to find the successor of G.Napolitano.
As of writing the cross is up 0.09% at 1.3063 with the next resistance at 1.3096 (high Apr.18) ahead of 1.3202 (high Apr.16) and finally 1.3229 (50% of Feb.-Apr. slide).
On the flip side, a breach of 1.3001 (low Apr.17) would expose 1.2967 (MA21d) en route to 1.2963 (low Apr.8).
