The upcoming week is expected to be exceptionally intriguing.</p>
<h2>USD: focus on the employment market</h2>

The unemployment rate is expected to drop to 3.7% in September while non-farm payrolls are likely to increase by 167,000, which is lower than in August. The USD has been holding a strong position so far; however, let us await the data releases.</p>
<h2>AUD: awaiting the RBA’s decision</h2>
