Euro near 1.1256 before US jobs data; dollar the strongest major on the week

RoboForex put EUR/USD at 1.1256 before the payrolls release on 2 October. Mitrade's roundup showed the dollar up about 1.07% against the euro over the week. RoboForex said the probability of a Fed rate rise in October had fallen from 68.6% a week earlier to 26.0%. A Friday closing level was not confirmed, so the right ear shows a dash.

The euro-dollar rate affects the price of US holidays, imports and the value of Irish exports.

A weaker euro makes US travel dearer.
