Impact On The Dollar And Euro If The Fed Cuts Rates - Invesco CurrencyShares Euro Trust ETF (NYSEARCA:FXE)

He likes shorting the euro against the dollar at current levels, with a stop-loss at 1.15 and a target between 1.05 and 1.07 by the end of the year.

While the Fed is about to cut rates, the dollar should actually strengthen from here, FXStreet analyst Joseph Trevisani told Real Vision viewers on Trade Ideas.

"The US economy is still doing better than everybody else," he explained to Real Vision's Jake Merl. "And the Fed rate cut at the end of the month, if it happens, is fully priced in. Everybody's priced it in for months now."

On the other hand, the European Central Bank is only beginning to talk about rolling out fresh stimulus, but it's "not at the operational level yet," said Trevisani. "When it starts to loom, it would play to the dollar strength and lower the euro."

Trevisani likes shorting the euro against the dollar at current levels.

"I'm looking at between 1.05 and 1.07 by the end of the year," he said. "Given the trends that we're seeing, both as far as the central bank rates go and also the world economy, that seems likely."

Trevisani said he would put a stop-loss on the trade at about 1.15, adding: "If you get to that point, then there has been a serious alteration in the underlying economics and the underlying rate policy, so something has changed."
