Intraday Strategies for Beginner Traders on June 3

The dollar continues to weaken — especially against the euro. Losses against the pound are somewhat smaller.

Yesterday's weak ISM data triggered a wave of selling in the U.S. dollar against risk assets and prompted a potential reassessment of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy outlook. Market participants began pricing in a higher probability of rate cuts in the coming months. This, in turn, weakened the dollar, which is traditionally sensitive to changes in interest rate expectations. Another factor supporting the euro was the expectation that the European Central Bank will cut rates for the last time this week and then adopt a wait-and-see approach.

Today, in the first half of the day, the Eurozone's Consumer Price Index (CPI) for May, the Core CPI, and the Eurozone unemployment rate are expected. Market participants will closely analyze these figures as they provide important insights into the state of the European economy and the ECB's monetary policy outlook. A higher-than-expected CPI reading could increase pressure on the ECB to take a real pause in its rate-cutting cycle. Conversely, a lower CPI figure could strengthen the case for further monetary easing, putting pressure on the euro.

The unemployment rate also matters. A decrease in unemployment suggests a strengthening labor market and could signal that the Eurozone economy is resilient to external shocks. An increase in unemployment, however, could raise concerns about slowing economic growth and weaken the euro.

As for the United Kingdom, today's parliamentary session, focused on reviewing the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Report, will inevitably trigger fluctuations in GBP/USD. Traditionally, reports from Bank of England officials to parliamentarians generate significant interest and speculation in the forex market. Market participants will carefully analyze the statements, seeking clues about future monetary policy decisions regarding interest rates and quantitative easing measures.

If the data aligns with economists' expectations, it is advisable to employ the Mean Reversion strategy. Conversely, the Momentum strategy is recommended if the data significantly deviates from expectations.
