Week Ahead December 4 – 9

EURUSD pair closed last week’s trading session lower on hawkish FED’s officials’ speeches. All officials including FED’s Powell commented that is premature to talk about cutting interest rates. FED’s Powell in addition, commented that another interest rate increase is still on the table. Euro-zone inflation came out softer than expectations and this added more downside pressure on the pair as any chances for another interest rates increase is waived as the EU CPI is coming closer to ECB’s target.

As for this week traders and investors will focus on the US non-farm payrolls and ECB’s Laggard speech. If Mrs. Laggard will deliver a dovish speech, pair could accelerate losses.

On the economic calendar we have on Tuesday, the US ISM services PMI pointing higher at 52. On Wednesday, European retail sales expected lower at -0.9%, US ADP employment, expected at 120K On Thursday, European gross domestic product to remain unchanged at 0.1% On Friday, German Harmonized index of consumer prices to remain unchanged at 2.3% US Non-farm payroll expected at 180K and US Michigan consumer sentiment, higher ta 61.8

Technically the picture is positive after last week’s close above (50%) at 1.0880 In this week’s trading session if pair continues on the upside and break and close above (61.8%) could open the road for 1.1300 (100%) If resumes on the downside it will retest 1.0750 (38.2%) Our traders opened new short positions at 1.0960 targeting profits at 1.0700. We are expecting more aggressive short positions on the way up and new buyers at 1.0700
