Details of the economic calendar from June 2
The ADP report on the employment rate in the United States recorded an increase of 128,000 in May. This is not bad data, but they predicted a more significant increase in employment, up to 300,000. Thus, the reason for the weakening of dollar positions took place in the market.
Almost simultaneously with the report, ADP published weekly data on jobless claims in the US, where they recorded a decrease in their volume. This is a positive factor for the US labor market, but it failed to fully compensate for the disappointment of traders from the employment report. Therefore, the US dollar continued to lose value.
Statistics details:
The volume of continuing claims for benefits decreased from 1.343 million to 1.309 million.
The volume of initial claims for benefits decreased from 211,000 to 200,000.
Analysis of trading charts from June 2
The EURUSD currency pair rebounded from the support level of 1.0636. This movement led to an almost complete recovery of the euro against the recent decline, as a result of which the corrective move from mid-May is still considered relevant in the market.
After a short stop, the GBPUSD pair rebounded from the support level of 1.2500, indicating its false breakdown. The rebound was accompanied by a high interest in long positions, which made it possible for buyers to return to the area of 1.2570. In fact, we once again saw a signal about the preservation of the correction in the market.
Economic calendar for June 3
Retail sales data in the euro area is expected for publication today. Forecasts assumed growth in figures, which may provide local support for the euro before the American trading session.
The main macroeconomic event of the outgoing week is considered to be the report of the United States Department of Labor, which predicts by no means bad indicators. The unemployment rate could drop from 3.6% to 3.5%, and 325,000 new jobs could be created outside of agriculture. We have a strong US labor market, which could support the US dollar.
Time targeting
EU retail sales - 09:00 UTC
US Department of Labor Report - 12:30 UTC
Trading plan for EUR/USD on June 3
Based on the recent price change, we can assume that the market has a local signal that the euro is overbought in the short term. This can lead to a slowdown in the upward cycle followed by a rebound. The price area of 1.0770/1.0800 is considered as resistance on the way of buyers.
The scenario of the prolongation of the corrective move will be considered by traders if the price stays above 1.0850 for at least a four-hour period.
Trading plan for GBP/USD on June 3
In this situation, traders consider two possible scenarios at once:
The first one comes from the preservation of rising interest in the market, where holding the price above 1.2600 can return the quote to the resistance area of 1.2670/1.2720.
The second scenario considers the possibility of completing a corrective move, where holding the price below 1.2530 will lead to another attempt to break through the support level of 1.2500. The largest increase in the volume of short positions will occur after the price holds below 1.2450, which will confirm the signal about the completion of the correction.
