Due to the situation with oil, the future direction is unclear. S&amp;P 500 futures are trading up. Oil prices are correcting following their collapse. This gives us reason to believe that the EURUSD pair will rise to 1.0905. For now, we can\u2019t see it rising any further since all the euro crosses are in the red. This is more indicative of an impending downwards reversal.<\/p>\n<p>British CPI data rose 1.5% year-on-year in March compared to 1.7% in February (forecast: 1.5%). This data sent the pound upwards.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Canada will publish data on consumer prices and housing prices, while Eurozone data on consumer confidence is set to be released. Today\u2019s main event is the EIA crude oil stocks change report. Yesterday\u2019s API report showed stocks had risen by 13.2 million barrels. Considering that WTI oil prices went negative for the first time in history, there can\u2019t be a negative reaction to this news.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>By <a href=\"https:\/\/alpari.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alpari.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Alpari.com On Tuesday the 21st of April, trading on the euro closed 4 pips down at 1.0856.
