Fundamental view
Annualized retail sales in the Euro region as a whole probably rose 1.2% in April, according to the median forecast of experts, after in March sales climbed 0.9%. In monthly terms, retail sales probably remained flat in April. This is a short-term indicator, which provides key information about consumption on a national scale.
In case the index of retail sales rises at a faster than projected pace, this would have a bullish effect on the euro. Eurostat is expected to publish the official data at 9:00 GMT.
At 11:45 GMT the European Central Bank will announce its decision on borrowing costs. The benchmark interest rate will probably be cut to 0.1% from 0.25% at the policy meeting, according to the median estimate by experts. A cut in rates would have a bearish effect on the 18-nation common currency.
The decision on policy will be followed by a press conference with ECB President Mario Draghi, scheduled at 12:30 GMT. Market volatility during this event is usually high.
Technical view
According to Binary Tribune’s daily analysis, in case EUR/AUD manages to breach the first resistance level at 1.4709, it will probably continue up to test 1.4748. In case the second key resistance is broken, the pair will probably attempt to advance to 1.4780.
If EUR/AUD manages to breach the first key support at 1.4636, it will probably continue to slide and test 1.4606. With this second key support broken, the movement to the downside will probably continue to 1.4567.
