The euro and the pound are trading within sideways channels, but both currencies are experiencing increasing pressure. Today's key development is expected to arise from the announcement of trade tariffs by the United States, along with relevant details. There are no significant economic data releases from the eurozone or the UK today.

Yesterday's data showing a slowdown in price growth in the eurozone failed to support the euro since easing inflation gives the European Central Bank room to continue cutting interest rates. The market seems to be pricing in more complex factors than just current inflation figures. Traders will seek additional signals from the ECB regarding the future trajectory of interest rates, paying special attention to how the ECB evaluates the influence of geopolitical tensions from tariffs and the energy crisis on the regional economy.

As mentioned above, there are no eurozone releases in the first half of the day, so trading will likely remain subdued. Traders will likely await news from the U.S., where labor market data is expected. These figures could significantly influence the Federal Reserve's decisions on monetary policy going forward. The focus will also shift toward trade tariffs, which are raising concerns over slowing global growth and prompting market participants to remain cautious and avoid risky assets.

If the information about tariffs matches economist expectations, the Mean Reversion strategy is preferable. If the data turns out significantly above or below expectations, the Momentum strategy would be more appropriate.
