The ECB Press Conference landed at 12:45 UTC on 23 July 2026, and the euro drifted slightly lower across its crosses. The biggest mover on our feed was EUR/NOK, down 0.119% in the 45 minutes since the event.

Where the euro moved

EUR/NOK led the way, easing from 10.95292 to 10.93986, a decline of 0.119%.

EUR/SEK followed, slipping from 11.10252 to 11.09155, a move of -0.099%.

EUR/CAD softened from 1.6028 to 1.60148 (-0.082%), while EUR/CHF edged down from 0.92972 to 0.92897 (-0.081%).

The emerging-market crosses barely budged: EUR/PLN was virtually flat at 4.32748 (-0.006%), and EUR/TRY was unchanged in practice, ticking from 53.87619 to 53.87806 (+0.003%).

What the reaction shows

The response was contained. All moves stayed well under a quarter of a percent, pointing to a muted overall reaction to the press conference.

What modest weakness there was concentrated in the European and G10 crosses, with EUR/NOK and EUR/SEK showing the clearest downticks. The Swiss franc and Canadian dollar crosses moved in similar, small measure.

By contrast, the zloty and lira crosses were essentially still, registering no meaningful directional shift in the window since the release.
