Week Ahead February 5 – 9
EURUSD pair closed last week’s trading session lower on better than expected US non-farm payrolls. The US white collar labor market continues to gather strength although the jobless claims points higher. FED maintained interest rates unchanged as it was widely expected and failed to deliver any future policy change. European CPI came out softer than expectations and this kept the pair lower for last week’s session.
As for this week, traders and investors will trade within technical levels. The light economic calendar will be dominated by few speeches from FED’s and ECB’s officials. The lack of any high impact events will keep market moving with tide levels.
