The main things that move the price

The Fed and the ECB

The pair watches whose rate will be higher and who changes course first. The decisions matter, and so do the words of the central bank heads after them.

US inflation and jobs

CPI and Non-Farm Payrolls change what the market expects from the Fed. On those days the dollar often moves the pair more than any news from Europe.

The euro area economy

Inflation and the PMIs of Germany and the euro area show whether the ECB can hold its rate. A weak Germany usually weighs on the euro.

When it is most active

The pair moves most while London and New York are open together and in the minutes after US figures. Asian hours are usually calmer.

Major releases ahead

The next high-impact releases over two weeks. What each means for the market is on its card.
