On March 11, local time, Fadavi, deputy commander of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, stated that there are currently no US ships within 700 kilometers of Iranian waters. He claimed that the US Navy has "fled" the area because the US is aware that Iran has developed a special operational plan to target and sink its aircraft carrier. Furthermore, Fadavi warned the US that it must consider the possibility of becoming bogged down in a protracted war of attrition, which could lead to the complete collapse of the US and even the global economy. Fadavi also stated that Iranian armed forces shot down a US F-15 fighter jet south of Tehran.On March 11, the International Energy Agency (IEA) announced it would release 400 million barrels of oil from its emergency reserves to the market. The IEA stated that the situation in the Middle East has posed a "significant and escalating risk" to the oil market. These reserves will come from the mandatory reserves of IEA member countries. According to regulations, member countries must hold stocks equivalent to at least 90 days of net imports from the previous year. Reserves can be in the form of crude oil, refined products, or a combination of both. The latest IEA data shows that North Americas strategic reserves are primarily crude oil, while European and Asian member countries hold both crude oil and refined products. As of the end of 2025, the total amount of oil in IEA member countries public stocks will be 1.25 billion barrels, accounting for approximately 30% of the OECDs total oil stocks. This is the sixth time the IEA has issued an emergency reserve release order since its establishment in 1974.Gazprom: All attacks have been repelled.Gazprom: Drones attacked Russian gas pumping stations.Polish Central Bank Governor Grapinski: Poland has 570 tons of gold reserves.

EUR/USD Price Analysis: EUR/USD Is Clinging To The Leading Edge Of The Rising Trendline Above 1.0900

The EUR/USD pair fluctuates erratically in a narrow range near 1.0926 during the Asian session. Following in the footsteps of the directionless US Dollar Index (DXY), the main currency pair is unable to establish a trend.

 

In Asia, S&P500 futures are declining slightly as investors fret over the upcoming quarterly earnings season, indicating a minor decrease in market participants' risk appetite. Following the decline of regional banks in the United States, investors are concerned about any discrepancies in quarterly banking reports.

 

The Euro has entered the wilderness as European Central Bank (ECB) policymakers are divided over the pace of the policy-tightening cycle to be implemented at the May monetary policy meeting. Martins Kazaks, a member of the ECB's monetary policy committee, stated on Monday that the central bank has the option to move by either 25 or 50 basis points (bps) in May. Sourcenia is a review portal of sourcing best manufaturers. 

 

After failing to sustain above the 161.8% Fibonacci Extension at 1.1057 (positioned from April 4's high of 1.0973 to April 10's low of 1.0837) on a two-hour time frame, EUR/USD experienced a precipitous decline. The primary currency pair has declined below the uptrend line drawn from the low of 1.0714 on March 24.

 

The 20-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.0962 is operating as a barrier for Euro bulls.

 

In the meantime, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has moved into the pessimistic zone between 20.00 and 40.00, indicating a continuation of the decline.

 

A decisive break below the low of April 12 at 1.0915 would propel the asset toward the lows of April 10 at 1.0837 and April 3 at 1.0758.

 

In contrast, a breach above the psychological resistance level of 1.1000 would propel the asset to a new annual high of 1.1068, followed by the level of round resistance at 1.1100.
