Today the EUR/USD pair managed to recover part of its positions, as US bulls have took a breather, allowing investors to lock in some profits after sharp drawdown, led by better-than-expected NFP results. However, the pair met strong resistance at its psychological level of 1.1800, as market participants seem still digesting Friday’s solid jobs data from the US. Positive data from the NFP report led to stronger confidence in the US economy and increased odds for a Fed rate hike in December. As a result, the divergence factor between Fed's monetary policy and the ECB has again come into play, thereby weighing the pair. Nothing important is scheduled in data calendar for today, so broad market trend will remain as an exclusive determinant for the pair at the beginning of this working week.
