• EUR/USD edges lower to near 1.1530 while investors remain uncertain over Iran’s final decision to the US proposal.
• Iran calls on US President Trump to surrender or his allies will return to the Paleolithic Age.
• The US FOMC minutes of the March policy meeting will be released on Wednesday.

The EUR/USD pair ticks marginally lower around 1.1530 during the Asian trading session on Tuesday, but is broadly sideways, wobbling inside Monday’s trading range. The major currency pair consolidates while investors await Iran’s final decision on the ceasefire proposal by the United States (US), which has a deadline of Tuesday, 08:00 PM ET.

As of writing, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback’s value against six major currencies, trades slightly higher to near 100.10.

Ahead of US President Donald Trump’s deadline, an advisor to Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has stated that Trump has about 20 hours to either surrender to Iran or his allies will return to the Paleolithic Age, emphasizing that Tehran will not back down. He called Trump’s threats “delusional” and added that they won’t make up for the “disgrace and humiliation” of the US in the region.

On the domestic front, investors await the release of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes of the March policy meeting, which will be released on Wednesday. In the meeting, the Fed left interest rates unchanged in the range of 3.50%-3.75%.

EUR/USD technical analysis

EUR/USD edges down to near 1.1530 in the opening trade on Tuesday. Price sits marginally below the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) near 1.1560, keeping the short-term tone mildly bearish as the pair struggles to reclaim that dynamic cap.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers in the mid-40s, showing negative but not extreme momentum, consistent with a market leaning lower inside a broader consolidation. A downward-sloping resistance trend line from around 1.1660 continues to limit rebounds, while the recent sequence of lower closes under that line confirms sellers retain the near-term advantage.

Initial resistance is now located at the 20-day EMA around 1.1560, with a break above exposing the descending trend-line barrier near 1.1600 and then the March 10 high at 1.1666. On the downside, the rising support trend line coming from the 1.1410 region underpins the market around 1.1470, with a daily close below that level opening the way toward 1.1410 as the next support. As long as the pair trades below 1.1600, rallies are likely to meet selling interest, keeping focus on whether the 1.1470–1.1410 support band can contain the current bearish pressure.

• EUR/USD rises to near 1.1560 as Iran’s confirmation of receiving the US ceasefire proposal has improved the market mood.
• The USD Index slides below 100.00 as its safe-haven demand diminishes.
• Iran clarifies that it won’t reopen Hormuz in exchange of temporary ceasefire.

The EUR/USD pair trades 0.4% higher to near 1.1560 during the European trading session on Monday. The major currency pair strengthens as market sentiment turns favorable toward riskier assets, such as the Euro (EUR), following confirmation from Iran that it has received the United States’ (US) ceasefire proposal through Pakistan.

An improvement in investors’ risk appetite has diminished the safe-haven demand of the US Dollar (USD). During the press time, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback’s value against six major currencies, is down almost 0.4% to near 99.80. The USD Index was steady above 100.00 in the Asian trade.

US Dollar Price Today

The table below shows the percentage change of US Dollar (USD) against listed major currencies today. US Dollar was the weakest against the New Zealand Dollar.

The heat map shows percentage changes of major currencies against each other. The base currency is picked from the left column, while the quote currency is picked from the top row. For example, if you pick the US Dollar from the left column and move along the horizontal line to the Japanese Yen, the percentage change displayed in the box will represent USD (base)/JPY (quote).

Though Iran has acknowledged the receipt of the ceasefire proposal, it has clarified that there will be no acceptance of the proposal under pressure or deadlines. Tehran has also stated that it will not reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a passage to 20% of global oil supply, in exchange for a ‘temporary ceasefire’.

On the macro front, investors await the US ISM Services PMI data for March, which will be published at 14:00 GMT. The Services PMI is expected to arrive at 55.0, lower than the previous reading of 56.1.

This week, major highlights will be the US Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes of the March policy meeting and the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for March, which will be released on Wednesday and Friday, respectively.

EUR/USD technical analysis

EUR/USD trades higher at around 1.1560 at the press time. The pair sits just below the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) near 1.1570, keeping a mild bearish bias in place while price remains capped beneath this dynamic barrier. A symmetrical triangle formation on the bottom level suggests that the broader trend has turned sideways, and a bullish reversal could be around the corner.

The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) range shift move into the 40.00-60.00 zone from territory below 40.00 signifies cooling upside momentum, with bullish bias remaining in place.

Initial resistance emerges at the 20-day EMA around 1.1570, followed by the descending trend-line region near 1.1600, where repeated failures have formed a tight cap on the upside. A close above that zone would weaken the bearish stance and open the way toward 1.1660. On the downside, immediate support is located at the rising trend line from 1.1408, now intersecting around 1.1500, with a break there exposing the late-1.14 area as the next bearish target. A sustained move below 1.1450 would confirm a deeper downside extension within the prevailing daily downtrend towards the March low at 1.1411.
