What to look for in the Economic Calendar this Week

Even though the beginning of the week was pretty calm, next days we might encounter a rise in the volatility for the Forex market because of the economic releases. At this point the markets are quite stable. The US dollar is week after the speech of Janet Yellen and the Euro is not that powerful because of the latest rate cut.

Let us take a look over the most important economic publishes of this week:
