EUR/USD Technical Analysis: 1.14 could be scaled ahead of the ECB

The EUR/USD pair may find acceptance above 1.14, having witnessed a bull flag breakout on the 15-minute chart a few minutes before press time.

15-minute chart

Flag breakouts usually end up accelerating preceding bullish moves. As a result, there is scope for a rally to 1.1426 (target as per the measured move method, that is, pole height added to breakout price).

Daily chart

The pair closed above 1.1374 (Tuesday’s high) yesterday, validating the bear exhaustion signaled by Tuesday’s “long-tailed” candle.

Indeed, the European Central Bank (ECB) President Draghi is widely expected to sound dovish. The recent drop in EUR/USD from 1.1570to 1.1336 likely indicates that markets have already priced in the dovish turn.  The timing of the first deposit rate hike was pushed back to mid-2020 earlier this month.

Trend: mildly bullish
