Technicals are likely to trump the news this week

Because the markets are largely sitting on key support and resistance levels right now it makes technicals much more important and critical than some of the fundamentals we may normally be interested in. Market sentiment at these levels can be extremely volatile so I am watching those announcements that are likely to have the biggest impact on forex traders in the short term.

From that perspective it is tempting to get a little over focused on the USD, and with GDP and FOMC releases due this week that temptation is somewhat justified. Traders in general have been increasing their outlook for growth in the US recently as evidenced by the trend in equities. If the GDP prelim. numbers or consumer confidence or even the FOMC minutes appear soft we could get a rejection at resistance on the USD and therefore a continued reversal across the majors. Check out the video for our take on the rest of the week's news and what we think will matter most.
