The strengthening of the US currency was caused by the publication of favourable data on consumer spending and reduced demand for risky assets in response to the downward correction of US stock indices. Statistics are now important for the market, as the next increase in interest rates is expected next week in the US.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Day&#8217;s news (GMT+3):<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul class=\"list list_type_disc\">\n<li>9:30 France: GDP (Q3).<\/li>\n<li>10:45 France: Consumer spending (Sep).<\/li>\n<li>11:00 Switzerland: KOF leading indicator (Oct).<\/li>\n<li>11:55 Germany: unemployment change (Oct), unemployment rate s.a.

If the hourly candlestick closes below 1.1355, the forecase will be cancelled. In this case, it is worth preparing for a new low of 1.1336.<\/p>\n<p>Of the data mentioned, it&#8217;s worth paying attention to the labour market and inflation report in Germany.<\/p>\n<div class=\"s_invisible_yes\">Source: &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/alpari.com\/en\/hidden_copyright\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">EURUSD: reversal pattern remains in force as Merkel announces end of political career <\/a>&#8220;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Matthew Anthony, Alpari Previous: On Monday the 29th of October, trading on the euro closed down.
