The euro exchange rate against the dollar forex forecast for EURUSD today 03/10/2019

The futures market in Chicago indicates a decrease in the US Federal Reserve interest rate meeting on 30 October. This will be the third cut in interest rates this year. Over the past five weeks, the Fed bought assets on its balance sheet in the amount of 98 billion.

Pound to dollar forecast GBPUSD today 10/03/2019
 

Good and bad news for the pound. Good news. The yield on 2-year US government bonds, which is closely correlated with the Fed rate is 1.5%, which is 0.375% lower than the discount rate of the Federal Reserve. This factor indicates a decrease in the Fed rates, which is negative for the dollar and positive for the pound. However, not all so simple. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that he has no plan to BREXIT, and must be preparing to exit from ES October 31 without an agreement with Brussels. Of course, things can still change ten times, and we will hear comments from other British politicians, but now, in the short term, for the pound is negative. Perhaps Johnson does not have a plan, a plan may have, and he traded with Brussels at the best conditions for themselves.

GBPUSD recommendation: flat 1.2250 -1.2340
