It was another positive week for the Greenback as the U.S. President Donald Trump praised the strength of the U.S. dollar after it reached a 14-month high against a broad basket of other currencies. Speaking about the current week, the economic calendar carries only a few major economic events that may help us capture moves in the market. In fact, today we have three speeches from the central bank officials, but this may have a mild impact on the market.
