Official benchmark rates guide liquidity as central bank steps in
The central bank of Bangladesh has published updated official foreign exchange rates for the Euro, with benchmark levels set at 138.24 BDT for buying and 138.42 BDT for selling, according to Banking Gurukul Edu. This action signals ongoing oversight and transparency from monetary authorities, providing a reference point for interbank and market-driven rates.

Overbought momentum limits rebound amid mixed intraday signals
On the technical front, EUR/BDT is trading below the MA-20 (BDT137.606) and MA-50 (BDT137.875) on the hourly timeframe, while remaining well below the MA-200 (BDT141.935) on the daily chart. The Ichimoku Kijun level at BDT137.78 stands as immediate resistance. Momentum indicators deliver a mixed picture: ADX and Bull/Bear Power are giving buy signals, and the Awesome Oscillator supports a bullish tone intraday. However, MACD is neutral. Oscillators highlight overbought conditions — RSI is at 64.281 (Buy), with both Stochastic RSI and CCI also overbought, indicating risk of a short-term pullback.
Sideways bias prevails unless resistance or support yields
Looking ahead, EUR/BDT is likely to trade within the BDT136.204 to BDT138.26 range over the next 2–3 days. Forecast models suggest a 64% probability for an upward move and a 36% chance of further declines, with the base scenario favoring sideways price action within the established corridor. A bullish move is expected if price breaks above immediate resistance, while violation of the lower support would trigger a bearish scenario.
Earlier, analysts noted that sustained bearish momentum continued to dominate EUR/BDT with downside risks prevailing in the near term. The latest technical signals indicate a potential shift, as mixed momentum readings and overbought oscillators suggest traders should monitor for a possible reversal or volatility spike if immediate support or resistance levels are breached.
