The new trading week in the forex market starts with a light economic calendar, and low to moderate volatility is expected, and moderate price action for the major currency pairs.  Later during the week there are two important central banks interest rate decisions, from the Reserve Bank of Australia and Reserve Bank of New Zealand, which should provide volatility for the Australian and the New Zealand Dollar.
These are the main economic events for today in the forex market:

European Session

Higher than expected or rising figures for the Purchasing Manager’s Index (PMI), reflect expansion and increased economic, business activity in the services sector, being positive for the Eurozone economy and the Euro. The forecast is for a marginal decline for the reading of Services PMI for the economy of Italy, but for a larger decline for the figure of Services PMI for the economy of Spain, which can be interpreted as neutral to negative for the Euro. The inflation rate in Switzerland is expected to rise to 0.8%, higher than the previous figure of 0.7% on a yearly basis, a very low reading, which while being positive for the Swiss Franc, it should not be a crucial factor for the Swiss National Bank to weigh on increasing interest rates soon.
