Euro-USDThe euro retreated against the US dollar on Monday, with losses limited in expectation of FEDs policy meeting on Wednesday.

EUR/USD fell to a session low at 1.3318 during the later phase of the Asian trade, after which consolidation followed at 1.3328. The pair slipped by a mere 0.09% for the day. Support was expected at June 13th low, 1.3277, while resistance was to be encountered at June 13th high and four-month high, 1.3389.
