Market Notes:
Fitch’s downgrade Greece’s four largest banks from BBB+ to BBB. Moreover, the ratings outlook is negative, which points to the risk of further downgrades ahead.
US GDP was revised up on Friday to 5.9% QoQ mainly due to inventories and probably will be supporting the return of the risk appetite.
Lots of major fundamental data this week: Canadian, Swiss, Australian GDP and Australian, Canadian, British, Eurozone Interest Rate and the Non Farm Payrolls on Friday.

Risk & Use Disclosure – Important Notice
Risk Disclosure
Trading foreign currencies is a challenging and potentially profitable opportunity for educated and experienced investors. However, before deciding to participate in the Forex market, you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. Most importantly, do not invest money you cannot afford to lose. There is considerable exposure to risk in any off-exchange foreign exchange transaction, including, but not limited to, leverage, creditworthiness, limited regulatory protection and market volatility that may substantially affect the price, or liquidity of a currency or currency pair. Moreover, the leveraged nature of Forex trading means that any market movement will have an equally proportional effect on your deposited funds. This may work against you as well as for you. The possibility exists that you could sustain a total loss of initial margin funds and be required to deposit additional funds to maintain your position. If you fail to meet any margin requirement, your position may be liquidated and you will be responsible for any resulting losses. To manage exposure, you will have to employ risk-reducing strategies such as ‘stop-loss’ or ‘limit’ orders.
