EU Session Bullet Report – USD trading sideways ahead of Mario Draghi

The Dollar has traded in a tight range versus most currencies after last Friday’s solid NFP data. With little news in the calendar this period, investors will keep an eye on the ECB December 3 meeting. Overnight, US and Asian stock markets also moved broadly sideways following last month’s strong rally. GBPUSD was the only pair making a significant advance yesterday, supported by better than expected jobs data in the UK. AUDUSD is also rising though, after solid employment data as well. The pair jumped from 0.7063 to 0.7140 after data revealed the addition of 58k jobs Vs 15k expected.

Today we have jobless claims highlighting news in the US, however we will also hear 3 FED members talk today. The content is likely to confirm the justification of interest rate hike in December. Aside for the US FED members, ECB President Mario Draghi testifies today in the European Parliament.

Trading quote of the day:

“The policy of being too cautious is the greatest risk of all.”

– J. Nehru
