Overview of Forex Trading Today: EURO and USD same have a risk

Overview of Forex Trading Today: EURO and USD same have a risk - Last week was tragic weekend for the single currency Euro. Because currencies are going to rise memorandum (Rally) in a row in the last 4 weeks. Strengthening this turns out to end the week were triggered by gloomy economic future of Europe.

What causes the grim future of Europe? Last week ECB President Mario Draghi issued a statement that surprised many on the future of the European economy. The ECB lowered its growth forecast drastically after all this time applying a 0.75% interest rate is the lowest rate for European history. Projected GDP (Gross Domestic Product) declined 0.9% and will only flourish as much as 0.3% next year where it will lead to economic contraction. Draghi said in a speech that the European economy will weaken throughout 2013 and into 2013 as sovereign debt problems are still stuck. ECB expected strengthening of the end of 2013 will occur gradually along with the increasing demand for the global economy. European economic slowdown has led to speculation of impending rate cuts is now the lowest it has been during the history.

Meanwhile, a day after cutting its growth forecast by the ECB, the Bundesbank also issued a forecast that is no less bad for the country of Germany. Germany as the country with the strongest economy in Europe greatly affect the performance of the European currency. Germany has been the key to the economic development of Europe since the crisis began first times, but it looks to be a shield German resistance to other European countries looks begin to fade. If the "champion" of Europe is projected to weaken it will greatly affect the performance of all members of the Euro. Economic Data Industrial Orders and Output in Germany have fallen backwards a few months marked by the fall of export performance. Bundesbank stated that Germany is likely to enter a recession that is likely to occur in the last kwarta 2012 and continued into the first quarter of 2013. Bundesbank also lowered its economic growth the previous year's 1.0% to 0.7% in 2013 and a previous projection of 1.6% to 0.4%. Meanwhile, inflation is expected to fall from 2.1% to 2.0% this year and 1.6% in 2013.

Meanwhile, how is the country of Uncle Sam, the United States? The U.S. dollar got a fresh breath after data NFP (Non Farm Payroll) and the unemployment rate improved this month. Data previously NFP increased 138,000 to 146,000 this month. Un-employments level decreased from 7.9% to 7.7%. This data is really a trigger for the U.S. dollar to skyrocket upwards at the close of trading last week. The U.S. dollar index which last week reached the lowest figure on 79.56 fly to the highest weekly figure 80.65.

But if the United States is in the improvement in the economy. Some have noticed that the U.S. economy will not be as fast and easy as it is out of the current crisis. Still remember Fiscal Cliff or gap? Read more about it here or in the Fiscal Cliff. Until now, both sides between President Obama's administration and Republicans have yet to find the midpoint that can answer the challenge Fiscal Cliff. Meanwhile, if we count the end of December 2012 will come in 22 days then the U.S. will re-run the race of time provide the best solution for all parties and the American people. Some authorities opine that a solution will be reached over finding the midpoint between the two camps than providing a solution that really appropriate and necessary. From the data rate of NFP and unemployment rate in November alone several parties sound pessimistic in assessing the figures released as the numbers are not real. Peter Schiff, CEO and Chief Global Streatigs at Euro Pacific Capital gave the opinion that the U.S. government has set a low unemployment rate by convincing unemployment to employment benefits using them rather than encourage them to work.

EURUSD

EURUSD rally to end long after the fourth week running. EURUSD could skyrocket to the highest value at 1.3125 and price should be much touched at low price at 1.2877 in late trading last week. Cutting economic projections by ECB and negative currents of the Bundesbank has made the European economy became more grim.

Our position on EURUSD next week is Neutral. Last week EURUSD was wracked by deep drop back to levels below 1.3000. But the euro's decline technically still in the corridor correction after several weeks of rallies. EURUSD is likely to move sideways for the next week. The price range would move between support the range of 1.2830 to 1.3000 resistance psychological in that area.
