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 readThe pair opened Monday at 214.351 and closed Friday at 213.693, dropping 0.658 points or 0.31% across the five sessions. Friday's sharp decline from 215.61 to 213.521 marked the week's defining move, erasing earlier gains.
With no economic releases scheduled in the upcoming five sessions, technical levels take centre stage. The absence of fundamental catalysts shifts focus entirely to whether Friday's breakdown below 214.00 attracts fresh sellers or invites a recovery attempt.
In quiet weeks like this, cross-yen pairs often track broader risk sentiment and movements in related majors. Watch how GBP/USD and USD/JPY behave, as their combined moves typically steer GBP/JPY direction when the calendar offers no guidance.
If buyers defend the 213.50 area early in the week, the immediate resistance sits at 214.75, last week's consolidation zone. A clean break above that level brings 215.60 back into view, Friday's high before the selloff. Below 213.50, the next meaningful support waits near 213.00, a psychological round number that hasn't been tested recently.
Current sentiment shows 54.5% of positions are long versus 45.5% short as of Sunday morning. This modest long skew suggests traders aren't fully convinced Friday's drop marks a trend change. The relatively balanced positioning leaves room for moves in either direction without triggering a crowded-trade unwind.
Three levels deserve attention as Monday's session begins. The 213.50 zone acted as Friday's low and now serves as immediate support. The 214.75 area hosted most of last week's price action before Friday's break. Above that, 215.60 represents the week's high and a clear rejection point. These are reference levels for gauging momentum, not entry signals.
