Today, trading will be entirely influenced by the decision of the European Central Bank on the issue of the main interest rate. Inflation in the Eurozone for the year is between 7 and 20% in individual countries, and interest rates on deposits are at levels of 0.75%.
What is expected today is a rate hike to 1.50%, but investors will be waiting for signals on when and by how much the next hike will be, as 1.50% is too little to fight inflation.
The results of today's ECB meeting are expected at 8:15 AM ET.
Then following a series of important data on the US economy, such as Durable Goods Orders(Sep), Gross Domestic Product Annualized(Q3), Nondefense Capital Goods Orders ex Aircraft(Sep) all at 8:30 AM ET, as well as the ECB Press Conference 8 :45 AM and ECB's President Lagarde speech at 10:15 AM.
Until today's important data, hold long positions. After that, investors may not see clear signals for further rate hikes. This could have a negative outcome for the Euro.
