EUR/USD pares losses, recovers to 1.0875

FXStreet (Mumbai) - The single currency sees modest recovery from fresh session lows versus the US dollar in the mid-European session, with EUR/USD still keeping the red below 1.09 handle. The major struggles to recover losses completely as Fed Lockhart’s rate lift-off comments continue to keep the European currency undermined amid the latest chatter surrounding Greece.

EUR/USD rises from 1.0849 lows

The EUR/USD pair trades -0.10% lower at 1.0870, striving for 1.09 handle. The EUR/USD pair maintains the offered tone, although erased more than half its slide, as the traders continue to favour the US currency ahead of a series of US fundamentals to be published later today.

Moreover, the euro remained largely subdued and continued to trade in a tight range on ignoring the upbeat services PMI readings from across the currency bloc and remaining under pressure on the back of a stronger USD.

Meanwhile, markets now turn their attention towards US macro updates due later in the New York session as the session ahead is likely to bring more incentives for the pair.

EUR/USD Technical Levels
