Nevertheless, several interesting releases are still upcoming.</p>

<h2>USD: in a weak position</h2>

Data on initial jobless claims per week and a report on pending home sales in November are to be released. The USD is in a relatively weak position, with the situation unlikely to change in the short run.</p>

<h2>EUR: no news</h2>

The secondary statistics include data on the CFTC <a href="https://roboforex.com/beginners/info/charts/forex/eurusd/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="35" title="EUR/USD">EUR</a> speculative net positions. The European currency exchange rate is supported by strong market interest in risk, and as long as it remains so, the euro will maintain its secure position.</p>

<h2>JPY: a small volume of significant statistics</h2>

The stronger the current statistics, the better for the <a href="https://roboforex.com/beginners/info/charts/forex/usdjpy/" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c="40" title="USD/JPY">JPY</a>.</p>

<h2>AUD: on the rise</h2>

Australia will not be active in this week&rsquo;s macroeconomic calendar. Among the upcoming releases, it is worth paying attention to the report on the CFTC AUD speculative net position. While the market is ready to risk, the Australian dollar is not in danger.</p>

<h2>GBP: all quiet</h2>
