EURUSD weekly: euro drops 111 pips to 1.14817, 2026-09-14
EURUSD gave up 111 pips over the week of 14 September 2026, with the whole loss landing in a single Wednesday session that broke 1.1500.
4 min readMonday's session for ETHUSD opened at 1951.22 and immediately sold off, tagging a weekly low of 1879.67 and closing at 1889.02. The rest of the week traded quietly higher. The weekly high printed at 1978.34 on that first day, and Friday settled at 1901.90. From the Monday open to the Friday close, ether shed roughly 49 points, a net move of about 2.5% to the downside.
The calendar for the week carried no scheduled high-impact ether events, so the tape leaned on broad currency flows. The dominant story came out of Japan. USD/JPY moved sharply lower on speculation of intervention on 30 July, then rebounded back above 160 after the BOJ decision. That kind of whipsaw in a major pair tends to drag risk assets around with it, and ether's Monday flush lined up with the wider unwind.
Commodity currencies told the risk-on half of the story. NZD/USD and AUD/USD both closed up over 1% on 30 July, and USD/CAD traded to a fresh multi-week low on the same session. Ether stabilised into that same stretch, recovering off the 1879 low and grinding back toward 1900 through midweek.
The bundle lists no scheduled high-impact events for the coming week on ETHUSD. With the calendar empty, price action is likely to take its cue from broad dollar direction and cross-asset risk appetite rather than a single dated release. If the dollar softens the way it did against the antipodeans late this week, ether has room to press the upper part of its range. If dollar demand returns, the recent lows come back into focus. Watch Bitcoin for the lead, since large-cap crypto tends to move together and ether often follows the tone set higher up the market cap.
Client positioning sits at 61.9% long against 38.1% short as of 31 July. That is a clear skew toward the long side. A crowd leaning this far one way means the consensus expects a recovery to continue, and it also means there is a larger pool of long stops resting below the market. If price breaks the weekly low, those stops can accelerate a move rather than cushion it.
The 1978.34 weekly high is the first hurdle on the upside. If price closes above it, the round 2000 handle is the next obvious area of interest. On the downside, the 1879.67 weekly low is the line that matters. If it gives way, the market is trading below the entire week's range and the prior structure comes back into play. Between them, 1900 is acting as a pivot, and Friday's close just above it keeps the balance neutral into next week.
