EUR/USD remains under pressure as surging crude oil prices dominate market dynamics, overshadowing the significance of this week's Federal Reserve and European Central Bank policy decisions. The pair is trading with a bearish bias as the US dollar benefits from safe-haven inflows triggered by Middle East geopolitical tensions, while the euro faces headwinds from Europe's vulnerability to energy price shocks. The US Dollar Index futures are trending higher, reflecting broad-based dollar demand. Both the Fed and ECB are expected to deliver key policy guidance this week, but traders are primarily focused on the oil supply disruption narrative, which is reshaping inflation expectations and complicating central bank outlooks. A hawkish Fed combined with energy-driven inflationary pressures could push EUR/USD toward support near 1.0750, while a dovish surprise might offer temporary relief toward 1.0900. Traders should be prepared for heightened volatility around both central bank announcements, with oil price developments likely to remain the dominant catalyst for directional moves across major pairs.
