Here is the preview:  EUR/USD: Trading the German Ifo Business Climate

So far this week, euro-zone publications fell short of expectations, with the  German ZEW Business survey sliding for the first time in 6 months.

However, also US data failed to impress, and the biggest blow came from new home sales. These fell over 11% and sent the dollar into a downfall.

We still have one more important figure coming up from the US: durable goods orders. The indicator was  very weak in recent months.
