Week ahead: ECB rate decision & US jobs

With scheduled corporate news in the background, traders will have a heightened sensitivity to the FX markets. On Thursday there is the ECB rate decision. As IGTV’s Jeremy Naylor explains, it’s not the decision itself after the green light was lit last week, by ECB chief Christine Lagarde, it’s more about whether the cut is one and done or if there are more to come this year. Other rate decisions in the coming week are in Canada and India. Outside of this, once the dust has settled on EUR/USD the spotlight returns to that cross with Friday’s release of US non-farm payrolls.
