At 17:30 UTC+4 European Central Bank President Mario Draghi speaks. If the ECB does not take any decision during today’s meeting, we have to wait harsh and aggressive speech against the strength of the euro, particularly against deflation. Thus, direct statement about the cut of the rate in December might be made.

Today the Bank of England publishes decision on key rate and quantitative easing program (at 16:00 UTC+4). The changes are not anticipated.

If data is not in line with the forecasts, we may observe a decline to the area 97.55/80.
