  • EUR / USD in negative for the week, but firm near highs in years.

He EUR / USD is trading a small rise on Thursday, supported by optimism raised by the possible Brexit deal. The pound is the best performing currency and it also pushes the euro higher against the dollar. The price climbed to 1.2215 before falling back to 1.2185.

This has meant that prices do not register significant variations. In this context, what is happening around Brexit stands out.

He EUR / USD is on its way to end the week with a slight drop. It is trading in the 1.2200 zone. These days it remained within the range of the previous week, consolidating in the zone of maximums in years. The bullish rally is still intact, although it has lost momentum after failing to overcome 1.2270, and after the dollar recovered.
