EUR/USD: Pair Rises Toward $1.13 on Greenback Weakness The euro was bid on Tuesday and the EUR/USD pair rose mainly due to the broad US dollar sell-off, which pushed the EUR/USD pair to daily highs around $1.13.

Looking ahead, traders will focus on today's US durable goods for March, which should improve from -3.0% to 1.9%, while the ex transport measure is expected to accelerate to 0.5% from -1.3% booked in February. These figures might cause some volatility on the greenback.

Later in the day, the US services PMI for April is projected to improve from 51.3 to 52.0, while the consumer confidence gauge should marginally decelerate in April to 96.0 from 96.2 booked in February.

In addition, S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices for February will be released, but should not cause any market reaction.
