EUR/USD uninspired by cheerful Spain Services PMI

FXStreet (Mumbai) - The single currency remained little changed against the US dollar after an improved Spain’s services sector data, erasing gains from the Asian session .

Currently, the EUR/USD pair trades flat at 1.1924 levels, after having posted day’s high at 1.1969 levels earlier in the day. EUR/USD remains unchanged after the Spanish services PMI readings showed that the country’s services sector expanded in December for the fourteenth straight month and left its one-year low hit last month. The services PMI for Spain rose to 54.3 points in December, after recording 52.7 points in the November, the weakest result in a year.

The EUR/USD pair remains cautious ahead of PMI data from other euro zone member nations and from Euro zone as a bloc.

EUR/USD Technical Levels

The pair has an immediate resistance at 1.2008 (Jan 5 High) levels, above which gains could be extended to 1.2070 (10-DMA) levels. On the flip side, support is seen at 1.19 levels, below which it could extend losses to 1.1858 (Jan 5 Low) levels.

Market Movers: Asia PMIs improve, Yen strengthens against the Dollar

The first week of trading saw weakness in the US equities and strength in the Japanese Yen on the back of global growth concerns due to the ongoing decline in Crude Oil. USD/JPY fell below the 119 handle to register a new 3-week low at 118.66, currently trading just above the 119 handle at 119.13, down 0.17% for the day.
