Yet the bank may maintain its hawkish tone, which could provide some support for the USD. Also BoE is expected to come under the trader\u2019s magnifying loupe as it is expected to deliver a 50 basis points rate hike and maintain a hawkish tone given the cost-of-living crisis the UK economy is facing. In the FX market though we expect the market\u2019s attention to shift towards the EUR, as a high number of high-impact financial releases concerning the single currency are spread in the week and the ECB is to deliver another 50-basis points rate hike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"Fed\u2019s interest rate decision eyed\" width=\"750\" height=\"422\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uqgf02_gwxI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>EUR\/USD maintained a sideways motion on Friday just above the 1.0855 (S1) support line. We tend to maintain a bias for the sideways motion to continue currently yet a change of trend is possible. Should the bulls take over, we may see EUR\/USD aiming if not testing the 1.1000 (R1) resistance line. Should the bears be in charge we may see the pair breaking the 1.0855 (S1) support line and aim for the 1.0715 (S2) support level that held its ground on the 10<sup>th<\/sup> of January.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AUD\/USD remained rather stable just below the 0.7125 (R1) resistance line. We tend to remain in a sideways bias for the pair given that the RSI indicator nears the reading of 50, yet we note the slight bearish movement during today\u2019s Asian session. Should the bears actually take charge of the pair\u2019s direction, we may see AUD\/USD aiming if not breaking the 0.7010 (S1) support line. Should the bulls take over, we may see AUD\/USD breaking the 0.7125 (R1) resistance line and aim for the 0.7256 (R2) resistance level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-highlights-for-the-day\"><strong>Other highlights for the day:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Today we would also like to highlight the release of Sweden\u2019s preliminary GDP rate for Q4, Switzerland\u2019s KOF indicator for January, and Germany\u2019s preliminary GDP rate for Q4, all releases being in the European session. During tomorrow\u2019s Asian session, we note from Japan the release of the preliminary industrial output growth rate for December and the retail sales growth rate for the same month, while from Australia we get the retail sales growth rate for December and China\u2019s NBS manufacturing PMI figure for January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-as-for-the-rest-of-the-week\"><strong>As for the rest of the week<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On Tuesday we highlight Eurozone\u2019s and France\u2019s preliminary quarter-on-quarter GDP rate for Q4, Germany\u2019s preliminary year-on-year HICP rate for January, Canada\u2019s month-on-month GDP rate for November and the US Consumer Confidence for the month of January. On Wednesday we highlight the Fed\u2019s February interest rate decision and the speech from Fed Chair Powell following the decision. Furthermore, we note Eurozone\u2019s preliminary year-on-year HICP print for January, China\u2019s final Caixin Manufacturing PMI alongside Germany\u2019s and Canada\u2019s S&amp;P Manufacturing PMI figures, all for the month of January. Lastly, from the US we note the ADP National Employment figure for January, the JOLTS Job Openings figure for December and the ISM Manufacturing PMI figure for January. On Thursday, we highlight the interest rate decisions from the Bank of England, the European Central Bank and the Central Bank of the Czech Republic. Also, from the US we note the weekly initial jobless claims and the Durable Goods orders for the month of December. On Friday we highlight the employment report for January from the US, with the Non-Farm Payrolls, the unemployment rate and month-on-month Average Earnings figures being updated. We also note a wide array of Services PMIs from Australia, Japan, China, France, the Eurozone and the UK all for January and finally the US ISM non-manufacturing PMI for the same month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-eur-usd-h4-chart\"><strong>EUR\/USD H4 Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"817\" height=\"367\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-119.png\" alt=\"support at one point zero eight five five and resistance at  one point one, direction sideways \" class=\"wp-image-54081\" title=\"eur-usd-four-hour-chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Support: 1.0855 (S1), 1.0715 (S2), 1.0585 (S3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance: 1.1000 (R1), 1.1180 (R2), 1.1325 (R3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aud-usd-h4-chart\"><strong>AUD\/USD H4 Chart<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"831\" height=\"367\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-120.png\" alt=\"support at zerop point seven zero one and resistance at zero point seven one two five, direction sideways \" class=\"wp-image-54083\" title=\"aud-usd-four-hour-chart\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Support: 0.7010 (S1), 0.6900 (S2), 0.6800 (S3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resistance: 0.7125 (R1), 0.7265 (R2), 0.7395 (R3)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1457\" height=\"357\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-121.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54085\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1055\" height=\"605\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-123.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54088\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1227\" height=\"794\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/image-122.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-54086\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"translation-block\">If you have any general queries or comments relating to this article please send an email directly to our Research team at <a href=\"mailto:research_team@ironfx.com\" target=\"_self\">research_team@ironfx.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disclaimer:<br>This information is not considered as investment advice or an investment recommendation, but instead a marketing communication.
