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 readUSDMXN opened last Monday at 17.4366 and closed Friday at 17.3116, a drop of roughly 125 pips, or about 0.72 percent on the week. The pair spent the first three sessions capped near 17.49 before a firm push lower on Thursday and Friday broke below the prior range. That late slide, not any single midweek print, set the tone into the weekend.
The calendar for the coming five sessions is light. There are no high-impact scheduled events in the bundle for USDMXN this week, so price action leans on broad dollar flows and risk appetite rather than a single data release. That puts the burden on momentum from Friday's break and on how the dollar trades across the majors.
Cross-market cues carry more weight when the local calendar is empty. Headlines around USD/JPY and PBOC fixing behaviour early in the week point to a dollar that is being tested against several counterparts at once. Watch whether that broad dollar tone extends the peso's Friday strength or fades it.
If the dollar stays soft and USDMXN holds below Friday's 17.3116 close early in the week, the prior week's low near 17.3091 becomes the first reference on the downside, and a clean break opens the 17.30 round number. If instead the pair reclaims 17.3432, Thursday's close, the mid-range around 17.44 comes back into view. A broader dollar bid, visible in correlated pairs like EUR/USD turning lower, would favour the second path.
The absence of scheduled catalysts means moves can be quieter and more technical. Respect the Friday range until price proves it wants to leave.
Positioning shows 62.1 percent long and 37.9 percent short as of the start of the week. That skew means consensus is leaning into a dollar bounce even after Friday's slide. A crowded long book can act as fuel for further downside if those positions are forced to cover, so the long tilt is worth watching alongside price rather than treating it as confirmation.
Last week's high at 17.5364 marks the upper reference. Friday's close at 17.3116 and the week low at 17.3091 sit close together and form the immediate downside reference, with the 17.30 round number just beyond. These are reference levels for context, not entry signals. Open an LHFX account to trade USDMXN this week.
