Post ECB rate decision event review - BNP Paribas
The ECB left policy unchanged and Mario Draghi delivered the maximum level of dovishness at the press conference.
"Specifically, he said that the degree of policy accommodation will be re-examined in December and that all policy instruments are being considered, including a further cut in the deposit rate. He also said the ECB is “vigilant” on inflation – a key word that in the past has been used to indicate imminent action."
"The bottom line is that the December meeting now appears more a question of ‘how’, rather than ‘whether’, the ECB will ease policy further."
For the outlook for the EUR, we notes that the mention of the possibility of a further cut in the deposit rate was important as this is the policy tool that would probably have the most direct impact on eurozone front-end rates."

EUR/USD: levels and targets by Societe Generale
Societe Generale made a weekly technical forecast concerning the EUR/USD:
"Considering a largely negative close this week, EUR/USD will form an evening star, a candlestick pattern that signals possibility of down move. It is noteworthy that this evening star coupled with a shooting star back in August gives bearish connotations."
"As such, SocGen thinks that the current break below 1.1085 means a retest of multi decadal channel support at 1.05/1.04 with intermittent targets at 1.0940 and May lows of 1.08."
"This massive channel remains the decisive level for next leg of downtrend as a move below 1.05/1.04 will confirm that the ongoing correction is not just a retracement of the up move since 2000 but in fact of the whole up cycle since the 1980s."

Morgan Stanley made a fundamental forecasl for this week related to USD/CAD - they estimated for this pair to be reversed to the bearish market condition:
"A more dovish BoC meeting this week opens the way for us to consider a more bearish CAD view in the fourth quarter. Stabilization in macro markets, and the potential for fiscal stimulus from the new government, could both offer near term support for CAD."
