EUR/USD bounces back towards 1.1650

      The EUR/USD pair is seen making minor recovery attempts on 1.16 handle, as we progress towards the European opening bells, with the broad-based USD recovery seen faltering once again near 94.60 levels.

       EUR/USD: FOMC in spotlight
The spot reversed most losses, having found fresh bids at Tuesday’s low of 1.1625 levels, as the European traders resume covering their  ECB decision-driven EUR shorts heading towards the key risk event for today, the FOMC policy outcome.

        More so, fresh selling seen in the US dollar across its main competitors, despite strengthening Treasury yields, also collaborate the rebound seen in the EUR/USD pair. The USD index eases back below 94.50 levels, almost unchanged on the day.
However, further recovery in EUR/USD appears limited, as the demand for the greenback could return to markets on a hawkish Fed statement, with the Dec rate hike already price-in by the markets.

         In the meantime, the pair will get influenced by the sentiment on the European stocks and US dataset slated for release later on Wednesday.
