Today’s big event should be the US ADP employment data released at 12:15(GMT). The previous reading is 18.5, while analysts expect it to be 20.1 which is a positive feedback for the USD index. As Fed’s Interest rate hike is infallible, the market is expecting more positive data. We should take effective measures since trading is becoming uncertain.
Important event: 12:15(GMT) The US ADP Nonfarm Employment Change
EUR/USD
Seen from the 1-hour chart, the long-term average line of the EUR/USD pair has shown an obvious decline, thus eliminating the bullish momentum. In this way, we would view it as sideways and buy call options between 1.1290 to 1.1313. If it breaks through 1.1313, we may continue to buy call options. We won’t buy put option until it plunge to 1.1260. Keep an eye on the big board during 12:00-14:00(GMT).
