EURUSD trading plan:
Short-dated Treasury yields leapt to the highest in almost 22 months in Tokyo amid bets the U.S. recovery will stay on track despite the risks from Omicron, leading to a Federal Reserve rate hike as soon as March. The two-year yield, which is very sensitive to interest rate expectations, hit 0.76% for the first time since early March 2020, a more than 5 basis point jump from Monday's close. Ten-year yields, by contrast, were little changed at 1.48%, consolidating in the middle of the range of the last several days. Money markets put better than 50-50 odds on a hike at the Fed's March meeting, and consider one by May a certainty. This is a positive signal for the dollar.
Investment idea: sell 1.1350 and take profit 1.1300.
