EUR/USD edges back down towards 1.1139 breakout level

Yesterday afternoon as the dollar tanked the EUR/USD did as expected and took out the December 2023 high, at 1.1139. The move through that level further extended after the release of the July Fed meeting minutes. As covered here at the time, those minutes revealed that several FOMC voters had wanted a July rate cut and the vast majority are indeed behind the Fed boss in wanting to deliver a cut next month. So, the dollar fell and the EUR/USD pushed on to set a high at 1.1174, not long after the release of those minutes. The EUR/USD later closed in the US at 1.1150. The price action so far today has seen it drift back close to that breakout point, at 1.1139. The range thus far has been covered by 1.1140 to 1.1158. The 1.1139 level should act as support, but as usual, it is also possible there might be some weak stops in place just below it. The EUR/USD is currently trading at 1.1141
