EUR/USD fails to hold above 1.1200

FXStreet (Córdoba) - EUR/USD failed to hold above the 1.1200 mark and retreated once again after hitting a fresh daily high of 1.1216 during the American afternoon.

EUR/USD has spent most of the day zigzagging within its recent range but not without making a fresh 1-month low of 1.1154 during the European session. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.1176, virtually unchanged on the day.

In the absence of first-tier data or events, investors seem to have adopted a wait-and-see stance and refrain from taking big positions ahead of the European Central Bank meeting on Thursday and the nonfarm payrolls on Friday.
