Current trend
Since earlier this week, the pair is trading in a narrow price range, near the psychological level of 1.0000.
Mixed statistics on retail sales published in the US yesterday had no significant impact on the instrument. The volume of trading fell before the head of the National Bank of Switzerland Thomas Jordan's speech, and the further dynamics of the pair will depend on his comments. Investors are cautious before the second round of the US-China talks.
Today, a large number of macroeconomic publications are expected, which can lead to strong volatility in the market. Investors will monitor the release of data on the consumer price index of the eurozone (11:00 GMT+2), the statement by ECB head Mario Draghi (14:00 GMT+2), the real estate market statistics in the US (14:30 GMT+2). The key event is the speech by the Swiss regulator head at 18:00 (GMT+2).
