Good morning. Hope all is well. We seem to have a good forecast for yesterday with 5 out of the 7 pairs conforming to our predictions. EURUSD, USDCHF, AUDUSD, NZDUSD and EURJPY were very close to what we had thought possible. Currencies to keep an eye out for today would be British Pound, Australian Dollar and Canadian Dollar due to our fundamental watch. We could be looking at a strong US Dollar while Japanese Yen could weaken. Adding one hedged pair to offset the trading risk. Happy Trading!
Forecasts Outlook
US Dollar: Strong
Today we're expecting the EURUSD to proceed Short below the barrier levels of 1.33103 and 1.33410.
