The EUR/USD bounced back from a three-week low during the overnight session yesterday, reaching as high as 1.2523 before staging another downward correction. The pair is once again trading below the 1.2500 level. Traders can expect significant market volatility today, as a much anticipated EU summit is scheduled to begin.
