EUR/USD reacted somehow bearish to the presidential debate hosted yesterday. This is normal, considering the grandiose change that will come to pass in less than a few weeks. The debate was focused on bringing back jobs, prosperity, growth and rising incomes. Improving the economy and the optimistic outlook of both of the candidates boosted only slightly the US dollar.
EUR/USD went from a high of 1.1280 to a low of 1.1239. Price has stabilized and is currently gravitating towards 1.1242. If the current momentum keeps going, bears will drive price down to a possible first target at 1.1150. If bulls turn the tide, first major target is seen at 1.1310.
As to the debate, Mr Trump and Mrs Clinton did not give enough incentives to the market participants in their first debate. Two more debates yet to come.
