EUR/USD regains 1.1200 ahead of the closing bell
FXStreet (Córdoba) - EUR/USD stretched a tad higher during the last minutes of trading in New York and posted fresh session highs above 1.1200.
After finding support at 1.1150, EUR/USD staged a comeback but was capped by 1.1200 for a couple of hours before gathering momentum to regain the psychological level.

However and despite intraday volatility, EUR/USD seems to be transiting a consolidation phase as investors refrain from taking big positions ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting next week, when some are still expecting the bank to raise rates.
