EURUSD-

 

EURUSD pared some of its gains ahead of ECB monetary policy. German flash manufacturing PMI in Jan rose to 45.40, while services declined to 47.60 from 49.3. Any hawkish comments from ECB  president Lagarde will push the Euro higher. Investors await the timing of the rate cut by the central bank.

The Canadian dollar lost its shine after the Bank of Canada's monetary policy. It has kept its rates unchanged at 5% and dovish comments from the BOC governor have pushed the pair above 1.350.
