03.01.-07.01. US Employment Data is in Focus

Source: Dukascopy Bank SA
The most notable event of the week will be the US and Canadian monthly employment data release on Friday at 13:30 GMT.

However, some might argue that the FOMC Meeting Minutes release on Wednesday at 19:00 GMT might cause a larger move. However, historical data of immediate reactions shows that it is not the case.

In the meantime, take into account the US Institute for Supply Management Manufacturing Purchasers Managers Index on Tuesday at 15:00 GMT.

On Wednesday, at 13:15 GMT, the ADP Non-Farm Employment Change might cause minor USD moves on all charts.

On Thursday, the official US Unemployment Claims at 13:30 GMT could create USD volatility. Later on, on the same day, the US ISM Non-Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index is set to be published at 15:00 GMT.

The moves on the tables are measured in pips by measuring five minutes before and after a data release.
