Our view was not wrong as EUR rose to 1.1624 before pulling back. Upward pressure has eased and EUR is unlikely to strengthen much further. For today, EUR is more likely to trade sideways within a range of 1.1570/1.1620.”

Next 1-3 weeks: “There is no change in our view from yesterday (14 Oct, spot at 1.1595). As highlighted, the recent weak phase has ended.
