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 readYou watched SOLUSD open Monday at 76.19 and close Friday at 75.59. The weekly high printed at 78.72 on Tuesday and the low reached 75.14 on Friday. Net, price fell about 0.79% across the week, roughly 60 cents off the open, with most of the damage coming in a single Thursday session.
The first three sessions held a tight band between 76.82 and 78.72, with Solana grinding higher into Tuesday. Thursday broke the pattern. Price opened at 77.83, tagged 78.37, then unwound the entire range to close at 75.71. That reversal wiped out the week's gains in one day.
The macro backdrop leaned risk-off. The PBOC set its USD/CNY reference rate weaker than estimate, a signal of a softer yuan that tends to pressure risk assets. Japan core CPI rose 1.6% in June, matching forecast, and left USD/JPY little changed. Neither print gave crypto a reason to bid, and Friday's thin volume of 1,345 against Monday's 12,596 shows how quickly participation drained after the Thursday flush.
The bundle carries no scheduled high-impact economic events for the coming week. That leaves SOLUSD driven by broad crypto flow and dollar direction. Watch the PBOC fixings and any follow-through in yuan weakness. If the fix keeps printing weaker than estimate, risk sentiment can stay heavy and crypto often trades soft alongside. If the fix firms back toward estimate, the pressure eases and Solana has more room to attempt a recovery of the Thursday range it lost.
LHFX client positioning sits at 61% long against 39% short. That is a clear long skew into a week that closed lower. Consensus is still betting on a bounce, which means a fresh leg down would put those longs under pressure and can accelerate selling if stops cluster near the week's low.
The Friday low at 75.14 is the first line. If price closes below it, the round 75.00 handle comes into play and the recent basing area opens up beneath. On the upside, the reclaimed level to prove is 77.83, Thursday's open. If price closes back above that, the Tuesday high at 78.72 is the next obvious test. A rejection there keeps the range capped. Solana's path this week echoed weakness across the majors, and you can track how Bitcoin is holding for a read on broad crypto risk before you decide whether the SOLUSD bounce has legs.
