Merchants are optimistic on the outlook for riskier forex pairs like AUD/USD, NZD/USD, EUR/USD and GBP/USD, in addition to shares and oil, as confidence is lifted by the passage of the US stimulus package deal via Congress, the settlement on a post-Brexit commerce deal between the EU and the UK, and the rollout of Covid-19 vaccines.
