December turned out to be a very volatile month for the major currency pair. Investors had to consider OPEC+ meetings, the FOMC meeting, and the QE program elimination. There was too much fundamental news, forcing a lot of fluctuations in EURUSD and a veritable firestorm of emotions among investors.<\/p>\n<p>This week, the macroeconomic calendar is almost empty. The only active day will be Friday. The USA will report on the Goods Trade Balance and the Wholesale Inventories in November. On the same day, the US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is going to speak. There will be hardly anything else to make the currency market move.<\/p>\n<p>On Christmas Eve and Christmas, no activity is expected on the market, that\u2019s why the major currency pair will probably consolidate in the range. There might be some quick movements on a \u201cthin\u201d market with a handful of investors, such things happen from time to time, but it\u2019s very unlikely.<\/p>\n<p>Looking at the H1 chart of EURUSD, one can see the mid-term correction to the upside. The current short-term decline may reach the support level of the mid-term projected channel at 1.1285, but only after the price breaks the low at 1.1355. In the nearest future, the instrument is expected to start a new pullback towards the resistance level at 1.1420.<\/p><div id=\"inves-3017554248\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EURUSDH1-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-139376\" src=\"https:\/\/www.countingpips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EURUSDH1-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"938\" height=\"625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EURUSDH1-1.png 938w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EURUSDH1-1-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.investmacro.com\/forex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/EURUSDH1-1-768x512.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 938px) 100vw, 938px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><u>Disclaimer<\/u><\/p>\n<p><em><i>Any predictions contained herein are based on the authors&#8217; particular opinion.
