Euro Unable to Maintain Upward Momentum, Closes Week on a Bearish Note

Following Thursday's news that Greece reached a deal on an austerity package that would pave the way for a bailout, the euro shot up to a two-month high against the US dollar. That trend drastically reversed itself on Friday, as the combination of demands for additional spending cuts in Greece, as well as political disagreements in that country cast doubts on whether a bailout will be delivered. The EUR/USD closed out the week at 1.3196. Against the Japanese yen, the common currency dropped almost 100 pips on Friday before staging a slight correction. The EUR/JPY pair closed the week at 102.42.

This week, traders will want to closely monitor any developments regarding the current Greek crisis. Particular attention should be given to a meeting of euro-zone finance ministers on Wednesday, which will likely shed some light on the state of current talks to deliver the bailout package to Greece. Most analysts are predicting that Greece will eventually receive the bailout it needs in order to avoid default. The euro may see some upward movement, if and when, the bailout package is agreed upon, but traders should be warned that the possibility for further euro bearishness is still very real.
