March 3rd – 7th
EURUSD pair closed last week’s trading session lower on Trump’s tariff war. As it was expected Mexican and Canadian tariffs will enter into effect this month, although the unexpected decision of president Trump to add 10% tariffs on China triggered a selloff in US equities and this favoured the US Dollar, pushing the pair lower. US PCE came on line with expectation, failing to trigger any significant price reaction. German CPI came out higher than expectations, but, Euro failed to react.

On Friday US Nonfarm payrolls expected to show 133K new jobs. ECB interest rate decision I due on Thursday.
