Forex Today: Cautious start to the week ahead of US Treasury note auctions

Here is what you need to know on Monday, February 26:

The US Dollar (USD) Index fluctuates in a narrow range at around 104.00 after snapping a five-week winning streak. January New Home Sales Change will be the only data featured in the US economic docket on Monday. Later in the day, European Central Bank (ECB) President Christine Lagarde will be delivering a speech and the US Treasury will hold 2-year and 5-year note auctions.

Wall Street's main indexes ended the previous week on a mixed note as the risk rally seen earlier in the week lost its steam. Early Monday, US stock index futures trade modestly lower on the day, reflecting a cautious market stance. The benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield stays slightly below 4.25% after declining nearly 2% on Friday. Tuesday's economic calendar will offer US January Durable Goods Orders and Conference Board Consumer Confidence Index data for February.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
