Looking ahead key data in the form of Core CPI (Forecast: 0.2%; Prior: 0.2%) and Housing Starts (Forecast: 1015K; Prior: 1006K) is out on Wednesday. Although, focus will soon shift to the FOMC minutes of the Jan 30 meeting in which the members voted for a 50bps cut, for any indication of monetary policy outlooks.

The Euro (EUR) gained versus the dollar ECB member Noyer said he 'remains confident' about France's economic situation despite global economic turbulence. Overall the EURUSD traded with a low of 1.4642 and a high of 1.4757 before closing the day at 1.4733 in the New York session.

Overall the GBPUSD traded with a low of 1.9455 and a high of 1.9541 before closing the day at 1.9487 in the New York session.

The Australian Dollar (AUD) was boosted by hawkish RBA minutes during the Asian session, in which it was revealed that the members had considered a 50 bps rate hike, although the decision to increase by 25 bps on the 5th of February was finely balanced.
