Lack of Greek Deal Sends EUR Tumbling
The euro was largely bearish yesterday, after Greece once again failed to come to an agreement with its creditors to restructure its debt. Losses were seen against most of its main currency rivals, including the US dollar, Japanese yen and British pound. Today, in addition to any euro-zone developments that may occur, traders will want to pay attention to a speech from the US Fed Chairman at 15:00 GMT. Any positive statements could help the USD extend its recent bullish trend.

The US economy created 243K new jobs, whereas analysts' expectations were a growth of 150K new jobs. This reduced the unemployment rate from 8.5% to 8.3%, mainly because many job seekers compromised on part-time jobs, but it is still an encouraging data regarding the largest economy.

Risk currencies struggle on China data; U.S. jobs eyed
The euro and the Australian dollar struggled to make much headway in Asia on Friday as a dip in Chinese non-manufacturing data weighed on sentiment ahead of a key jobs report in the United States.
China's non-manufacturing purchasing managers index fell to 52.9 in January from 56 the month before, prompting traders to lighten positions in risk currencies. That sent the euro to an intraday low of $1.3114, while the Aussie nudged down 0.2 percent to $1.0692.
