Today, JustForex’s team of financial analysts has prepared a new review of events in the upcoming week.

These events can significantly affect the Forex market.

Choose and track the ones that are most important to you.

Last week, trading activity and volatility increased significantly. The meetings of the Central Banks of the USA, New Zealand and Great Britain were held. The Fed, as expected, raised the key interest rate by 25 basis points to 1.75%. The Reserve Bank of New Zealand and the Bank of England kept interest rates at the same level. The risks of a trade war between the US and China have risen again, putting pressure on the US currency.

In the upcoming trading week, we recommend you to pay attention to the following macroeconomic events and reports.

On Monday, the news feed will be quite calm.

We recommend you to keep track of relevant information regarding trade relations between the US and China.
