Today, traders are advised to follow constant daily development coming out of the U.S. economy, such as the release of Prelim GDP figure. This indicator might provide for extreme market volatility in the major currency pairs. Traders may find good opportunities to enter the market following this vital announcement at 12:30 GMT.

The U.S. Dollar traded weakly in yesterday’s session as it witnessed depreciation against all of its currency rivals. Plunging toward the critical levels of 1.4000 against the EUR and 1.6000 against the GBP, the greenback’s recent weakness doesn’t appear to have an end in sight for today.
With an expectant worry that today’s data releases will put investor focus on America’s increase in debt issuance, thus resulting in a higher Treasury yield; the market may continue to go bearish on the USD. As expected, higher yielding assets and currencies like the EUR and GBP may then gain significantly from these speculations. Positive economic data in Europe throughout the week has also resulted in dramatic investment shifts towards a diversified portfolio for many traders who wish to increase their risk and pull away from safe-haven investments.

Looking forward to today, forex traders will no doubt be marking the multitude of European data releases as Britain’s HPI housing report may show a sudden return to market weakness, and the Euro-Zone’s M3 money supply report has the potential of showing a drop in the level of currency available throughout the European forex market. In the United States, the Preliminary GDP report is scheduled to be released at 12:30 GMT and may show the U.S. economy shrinking less than last quarter, a sign that the economy could be entering a solid recovery. With a focus on America’s debt issuance, USD weakness is anticipated to continue throughout the end of the week.
