The central event on Thursday will be the publication (at 18:00 GMT) of the minutes from the June Fed meeting. The publication of the protocol is extremely important for determining the course of the current policy of the Fed and the prospects for raising the interest rate in the US, because recently, from the leaders of the Federal Reserve more often you can hear statements that testify to the Fed's inclination to accelerate the rate of interest rate increase.

Volatility during the publication of the protocol is usually increased, since the text of the protocol often contains either changes or clarifying the details of the outcome of the previous FOMC meeting.

Also, market participants will follow the speech of the head of the Bank of England Mark Carney, which will start at 10:00 (GMT). Volatility in the pound trade in this period of time may rise sharply, because Mark Carney is able to unfold the markets with his unexpected statements. If he does not touch upon the questions of the monetary policy of the Bank of England, the reaction to his speech will be weak.

It is also necessary to pay attention to the publication of a block of important macro data from the United States in the period from 12:15 to 14:00 (GMT). Among other data - the publication of the ADP report on employment in the private sector in the US in June. This report usually has a strong impact on the market and the dollar quotes. Although there is usually no direct correlation with Non-Farm Payrolls, the ADP report is considered the harbinger of the official report of the US Department of Labor on the overall state of the labor market in the country. Strong data positively affects the dollar. The number of employees in the US private sector is expected to increase by 190,000 (against +178,000 in May). Reducing the result could negatively affect the dollar.

Thus, on Thursday an extremely volatile trading day is expected, especially in the American trading session.
