EUR/USD bias flipped 20 times to neutral on October 5, 2026
The euro has fallen to a 17-month low and back below the 1.1200 level as U.S. dollar strength dominates and European politics and fiscal concerns, including developments in Spain and France, weigh on the currency. Mixed services activity data in Europe and a weaker U.S. ISM Services PMI have not changed that pressure, with reports noting the euro selloff picking up steam. This matters for EURUSD because repricing around European fiscal woes alongside continued dollar demand is shaping recent trading.
