EUR/USD: Euro Back Below $1.12 After ECB Decision Amid Draghi


The single currency was trading off daily highs and was seen flattish against the US dollar, trading near daily lows at $1.1185.

Earlier in the day, the European Central Bank (ECB) left monetary policy unchanged as the main refinancing rate stayed at 0.0%, while the deposit rate was kept at -0.4%.

The ECB further advised today that starting on June 22, it will conduct the first operation in its new series of TLTROs.

More volatility might come during Mario Draghi's presser, which is ongoing.

"We anticipate that Draghi will reiterate that interest rates can go lower (including deposit facility rate) and that further micro tuning of lending facilities is possible - comments that should keep the spectre of easing alive and the euro on back footing. Our view is in contrast to speculation that the ECB has an incentive to signal a pause in cuts," Peter Rosenstreich, chief fx analyst at Swissquote bank, said on Thursday.
