EUR/USD lower on ADP, US data eyed

The pair has faded the rebound to the mid-1.0900s after the ADP report has (slightly) surprised markets to the upside, showing the US private sector has created 182K jobs during October, surpassing previous estimates at 180K. September’s print was revised lower to 190K from 200K.

Next on tap will be the Trade Balance figures, ISM Non-Manufacturing and Markit’s Services PMI, all ahead of Chairwoman J.Yellen’s testimony and speeches by Fed members Dudley and Vice Chairman Fischer.
