Mechanically, the rather reassuring news, through the voice of Dr Fauci, gives new impetus to the two currencies, confirming this short-term rebalancing. However, we will get out of it, and the trigger could well be the long-awaited publication of the various consumer price indices in the United States tomorrow (2:30 p.m. Paris time). The appointment is therefore made for the traders.

KEY GRAPHIC ELEMENTS
The short current was strongly reinforced by the break of a technical zone at 1.1530, on marubozu on November 10th. This is a major fact, which resulted in a massive release of selling energy. The short term is aligned with the medium term, bearish, on the Euro / Dollar currency pair, but the entry point is no longer optimal, as the probabilities of the formation of a protest rebound increase at this stage. Traders will temporarily prefer to stay out of the spot while waiting for a suitable entry point. A break from the low points of November would give a signal.
