EUR/USD treading water around 1.3330

FXstreet.com (Edinburgh) -The shared currency keeps meandering around the lower end of the intraday range, driving the EUR/USD around 1.3320 and 1.3330.

EUR/USD hurt by Syrian jitters

The geopolitical unease around Syria continues to weigh heavily on the risk-associated assets, with market participants accelerating their exodus to the safe havens. “For now, the broader trend remains neutral however, with the rough 1.33/34 range still intact. US data and Syrian headlines are the obvious catalysts to keep an eye on today, but we also point out that short term German-US spreads have widened overnight—a move that undercuts some support for EUR/USD. Broadly, we remain better sellers”, recommended G.Moore and S.Osborne, FX Strategists at TD Securities.

EUR/USD levels to consider
