EURUSD Daily Market Report - February 4, 2026

February 4, 2026 • Generated 10:02 AM Neutral 45% confidence

Neutral pre-data; EUR CPI 12:00 vs US ADP/ISM 15:15/17:00 will dictate break of 1.1830 range.

Executive Summary

Why This Bias?

Scenarios

Primary (Range)

Trigger: EUR CPI in-line 1.8% y/y + US ADP/ISM meet/beat consensus; 1.1810–1.1850 holds through NY close

Targets: 1.1820 mid-range retest, 1.1805–1.1810 Asia low liquidity sweep

Invalidation: Break and 4H close above 1.1855 or below 1.1795

  • Neutral macro score + mixed cross-market signals favor consolidation pre-NFP Friday
  • VIX +10.16% off-session spike may fade in NY; watch 1.1830 pivot for intraday mean reversion
  • US-DE 2Y spread Δ7d -15bp narrowing is modest EUR support but needs data catalyst to extend
Alternate (Continuation)

Trigger: EUR CPI core beats 2.3%+ (hawkish ECB repricing) OR US ISM Services <52.5 (growth scare); break 1.1855

Targets: 1.1880 psychological, 1.1910 Jan highs

Invalidation: Failure at 1.1860 + US ADP >60K reverses to 1.1800

  • EUR CESI +2.03 level vs USD -3.73 supports upside if data confirms divergence
  • Market impact -0.86 and WTI +2.04% (EUR pressure -0.62) are headwinds; needs strong EUR CPI to override
  • News headline 'ECB stability outshines USD struggles' aligns with upside scenario but confidence only 83.5%

Session Playbook

Asia
Expectation
Thin range 1.1815–1.1840; consolidation ahead of EUR CPI 12:00 Kyiv
Liquidity
Low conviction; potential sweep of 1.1810 Asia lows if risk-off extends (VIX +10.16% follow-through)
Key Levels
1.1810 support, 1.1830 pivot, 1.1840 resistance
London
Expectation
Volatility spike 11:00–12:00 on EUR PMI finals + CPI flash; initial reaction may fade into US open
If/Then Logic
  • IF EUR CPI core ≥2.3% THEN buy 1.1835 break target 1.1860, stop 1.1820
  • IF EUR CPI headline <1.7% THEN sell 1.1820 break target 1.1795, stop 1.1835
Key Levels
1.1820 London open, 1.1850 resistance, 1.1800 support
New York
Expectation
US ADP 15:15 + ISM Services 17:00 will confirm or reverse London move; expect 40–50bp range post-ISM
If/Then Logic
  • IF ADP >55K + ISM >54.0 THEN USD bid, sell 1.1840 target 1.1800, stop 1.1860
  • IF ISM <52.5 (miss) + ADP in-line THEN EUR extension to 1.1880, buy dips to 1.1845
Key Levels
1.1830 NY pivot, 1.1855 breakout, 1.1795 breakdown

Δ7d: USD -0.93 vs EUR +0.61; levels USD -3.73 / EUR +2.03 favor EUR data momentum
MacroScore 0
neutral
95% confidence neutral call reflects balanced forces; no directional edge from macro model

Rates & Yields

US-DE 2Y Spread +76bp

Spread favors USD but Δ7d -15bp narrowing is modest EUR tailwind
Fed Hike Odds 15%
EUR+
Unchanged Δ7d; low probability limits USD upside from rate expectations
US Curve Inversion -72bp
EUR+
2s10s inversion signals US growth concern; modest EUR support if data disappoints

Cross-Market

Equity Risk-Off
mixed
SPX -0.84%, VIX +10.16% off-session; risk-on score +0.32 conflicts with USD safe-haven bid
WTI +2.04%
USD+
Energy score -0.62 = EUR pressure from oil strength (eurozone energy importer)
USDJPY +0.10%, EURCHF -0.10%
USD+
Correlation score -0.20 implies modest EUR pressure from cross dynamics

News

ECB Schnabel Rate Clarification
neutral
Headline 'I didn't say rates should be raised' dampens hawkish ECB repricing; news score +0.05 neutral
UK Inflation Softness
neutral
GBP-centric (BoE rate cut bets); indirect EUR spillover limited; confidence 83.5%

Risk Events

12:00pm Medium-High
EUR CPI Flash Estimate y/y (1.8% fcst vs 2.0% prior) + Core CPI (2.2% vs 2.3%)
Expected: Miss <1.7% = 30–40bp EUR drop to 1.1795; beat ≥2.0% = 25–35bp rally to 1.1860; in-line = range 1.1820–1.1840
Playbook: Fade initial 15–20bp spike if within 0.1% of forecast; trade breakout if core surprises ±0.2% with 4H close confirmation
3:15pm High
US ADP Non-Farm Employment Change (48K fcst vs 41K prior)
Expected: Beat >55K = 20–30bp USD strength to 1.1800; miss <40K = 15–25bp EUR rally to 1.1850; in-line = muted 10bp
Playbook: ADP often noisy vs NFP; weight ISM Services 17:00 more heavily; use ADP for initial positioning only, tighten stops pre-ISM
5:00pm High
US ISM Services PMI (53.6 fcst vs 54.4 prior)
Expected: Miss <52.5 = 40–50bp EUR rally to 1.1880 (growth scare); beat >54.5 = 35–45bp USD bid to 1.1785; in-line = 15–20bp chop
Playbook: Primary directional driver for NY close; combine with ADP for labor+services narrative; sub-50 print would accelerate EUR to 1.1900+
10:15am–11:00am Low
EUR Services PMI Finals (Spain/Italy/France/Germany/Composite)
Expected: Finals rarely deviate from flash; expect <10bp noise unless Germany surprises ±1.0 from 53.3 fcst
Playbook: Monitor for German beat >54.5 as early EUR bid into CPI 12:00; otherwise ignore and position for CPI
