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 XRPUSD open the week at 1.0950, print a high of 1.1621 on Tuesday, dip to a low of 1.0802 on Monday, and close Friday near 1.1080. That is a net gain of roughly 130 pips, about 1.2 percent on the week. The story is not the small net gain. It is the round trip: buyers pushed price more than 660 pips off Monday's low before sellers dragged it back to where it started.
The bundle carried no scheduled economic events for this asset, so the tape did the talking. Momentum built through Monday and Tuesday, lifting price from the 1.0802 low to the 1.1621 high in under two sessions. Volume backed the early move, with Monday at 66,330 and Tuesday at 57,910, then thinned out into the reversal.
The macro backdrop stayed quiet on the crypto side. Japan core CPI rose 1.6 percent in June, matching forecast, and USD/JPY barely moved. A PBOC reference rate fix drew attention but gave crypto no fresh catalyst. By Thursday the rally had unwound to 1.1052 as volume dropped to 43,695 and then to just 7,859 into Friday.
The bundle lists no scheduled high-impact events for the upcoming week. With a thin calendar, price action and volume tend to lead. Watch whether volume returns after Friday's shallow 7,859 reading. A rebuild of participation on an up move would confirm buyer interest. A rebuild on a down move would confirm the sellers who capped Tuesday's high are still active. Absent a catalyst, the mid-week 1.1621 high and the Monday 1.0802 low frame the range you are working with.
Sentiment shows 69.5 percent of positions long and 30.5 percent short as of 2026-07-24. That is a heavy long skew. Consensus is leaning bullish, which means the crowd is already positioned for higher prices. A crowded long book can act as fuel on a break higher, but it also leaves more stops sitting below the market if price rolls over. The reversal from 1.1621 back to 1.1080 is the kind of move that tests that skew.
The weekly high at 1.1621 is the first ceiling. If price closes above it, buyers have cleared the week's range and the character of the move changes. On the downside, the Thursday low near 1.0983 sits just under the 1.1000 handle. If that gives way, the Monday swing low at 1.0802 is back in play. The move you saw this week echoes broader crypto risk appetite, so a look at Bitcoin can help confirm whether the reversal is XRP-specific or market-wide.
