EURUSD trading plan:
The European Central Bank is ready to lower interest rates in September. A downward trend in inflation expectations was a cause for concern, and that the euro area’s economic slowdown was likely to be more protracted than expected. While external factors such as trade tensions were driving a contraction in manufacturing that could be a leading indicator for the services sector. Trade war between the USA and China, BREXIT is a high risk for the European economy. The European Central Bank will fight risks by lowering interest rates. This is a negative signal for the euro.
Trading recommendation: Sell 1.1080 and take profit 1.1055.
