EUR/USD made a tepid attempt to recover ground but failed to gather momentum and remained capped by the 1.0975 zone.
EUR/USD retreated from Friday's peak and steadied around the 1.0950 level as investors continue to digest US employment data. At time of writing, EUR/USD is trading at 1.0960, down 0.38% on the day.
Still the week started on a quiet note, as attention turns to the European central bank meeting on Thursday, with investors expecting the bank to launch more easing measures.
On the data front, the Eurozone Sentix index fell to 5.5 in March from 6.0 the previous month and below the 8.0 expected while German Factory Orders contracted less than expected 0.1% during January (-0.1% vs -0.5% expected).
There is no first-tier data scheduled for the rest of the day, with US consumer credit and speeches by Fed's Fischer and Brainard on tap.
