Currency trading with euro/dollar
Currency trading with euro/dollar has been a bit choppy the last couple of days. With euro rising in forex trading against the US dollar yesterday, before falling back, things have been a bit volatile.

And now, the same bit of choppiness is appearing today. The euro is advancing overall against the dollar in FX trading as the ECB remains the same, maintaining the euro's interest rate differential. However, the euro has begun paring gains in forex trading.

The euro is also gaining against the UK pound in forex trading.

UK Pound Continues to Fall in FX Trading

Currency trading with the sterling
The UK pound continues its fall today in FX trading on the currency market. Currency trading with the sterling should consider that the British economy is slowing down at a rapid pace as overstretched consumers become a very real issue.

Some predictions are that the UK pound could fall below $1.93 in FX trading in the coming weeks, setting the sterling up for a "very hard landing" according to Bloomberg.

US Dollar Gains in Currency Trading

Forex trading with the greenback
The US dollar is gaining against the majors in currency trading on the FX market today. Forex trading with the greenback should consider its strength, especially against the euro this morning.

Right now, the US dollar is deriving strength from two main factors:
  1. Worries about demand have oil prices in something of a freefall, with prices below $120 a barrel.
  2. The Fed will announce its interest rate decision today at 2:15 Eastern, and things are expected to remain steady. However, the Fed is also expected to announce a concern over inflation, which should serve to raise expectations of a rate increase in the near future.
