EUR/USD extends recovery and climbs to session highs

By FXStreet EUR/USD made an U-turn and climbed back to the upper-side of its daily range after bouncing from below 1.1100 during the American session.

EUR/USD fell through 1.1100 to a low of 1.1065 after data showed US core CPI rose 0.3% in January, the largest monthly rise in over 5 years. However, the greenback failed to consolidate gains and EUR/USD advanced to a session high of 1.1133 where the 100-hour SMA offered resistance.

At time of writing, EUR/USD is trading at 1.1125, now up 0.18% on the day. Should the euro close above 1.1105 it will be recording its first daily gain in six against the dollar.
