EUR/USD trims daily losses after US trade data

EUR/USD edged slightly higher and continued to move off daily lows following the release of disappointing US trade data.

US trade deficit widened in February by 2.6% to a 6-month high of 47.06 billion, from 45.88 billion reported in January and larger than the 46.20 billion expected.

EUR/USD pushed a tad higher and trimmed intraday losses, reaching a high of 1.1380 ahead of the Wall Street opening. At time of writing, the pair is trading at 1.1378, still 0.1% below its opening price.

Later in the session, main data releases include US non-manufacturing PMIs for March (Markit and ISM) and API’s crude oil stock report.
