Good morning. Hope all is well! We seem to have had a below average forecast for yesterday with only a 43% accuracy. This was mainly due to the US Dollar gaining momentum instead of letting out some steam. British Pound, Euro, Canadian and US Dollar pairs are on our watch list today on account of the fundamental watch. Both US Dollar and Japanese Yen could be on the weak for today. Adding one hedged pair to offset the risk. Happy Trading!
Forecasts Outlook
US Dollar: Weak
Today we're expecting the EURUSD to proceed Long above the barrier levels of 1.08096 and 1.08420.
