1. U.S. stocks fell in early trading on Monday after Greeks overwhelmingly rejected conditions of a rescue package from creditors, throwing the future of the country's euro zone membership into further doubt.
Stock markets globally fell, but analysts said the declines were less than expected due to expectations that the European Central Bank would act to limit any damage.
The ECB's governing council is due to hold a conference call on Monday afternoon to discuss the provision of emergency funding to Greece's banks. The call was originally to be held at noon. A new bailout deal is needed for Greece to meet a July 20 deadline to repay $3.9 billion of bonds to the ECB.
2. The U.S. dollar rose to fresh two-and-a-half month highs against its Canadian counterpart on Monday, as demand for the safe-haven greenback strengthened broadly after Greek voters rejected conditions of a rescue package from creditors on Sunday.
USD/CAD hit 1.2652 during early U.S. trade, the pair's highest since April 13; the pair subsequently consolidated at 1.2650, gaining 0.62%.
The pair was likely to find support at 1.2540, Friday's low and resistance at 1.2668, the high of April 10.
3. Service sector activity in the U.S. grew at a slower pace than expected in June, one month after expanding at the weakest rate in more than a year, industry data showed on Monday.
In a report, the Institute of Supply Management said its non-manufacturing purchasing manager's index inched up to 56.0 last month, up from 55.7 in May but below forecasts for a reading of 56.2.

Here are 4 tips for today's trading. This will help you decide where you should invest and what to look for:
Stock markets are making some nausea-inducing moves Monday as investors react to major developments out of Greece and China.
1. Investors seeing red:
U.S. stock futures are deep in negative territory, with investors taking their cue from Europe and Asia, where nearly all major stock markets are falling.
European stock markets are down by roughly 1% to 2% as traders react to the results of Sunday's Greek referendum. The country voted by a wide margin to reject Europe's latest bailout offer. This raises the risk that the country could now suffer a worse economic disaster and lose its place in the euro.
Yields on Greek 10-year government bonds soared to nearly 17% as investors saw an increased risk that the country will have to dump the euro. Yields on government bonds in Spain, Portugal and Italy are also rising, though the moves were modest. Bond yields in perceived safe havens like Germany and the U.S. are edging lower.
Meanwhile, Chinese stocks remained volatile, despite a series of dramatic steps by officials over the weekend that were designed to support markets.
After opening with a gain of roughly 7%, the benchmark Shanghai Composite lost steam. It closed with a gain of 2.4% Monday. The smaller Shenzhen Composite, which also started the day in positive territory, reversed course and ended 2.7% lower.
2. Keeping up with currencies:
The U.S. dollar and British pound are broadly stronger Monday morning while the euro is weaker.
Traders are reacting to continued uncertainty about Greece's future.
3. Stock market mover:
Rolls-Royce Holdings: Investors are selling shares in Rolls-Royce Holdings (RYCEY), which is one of the world's biggest manufacturers of aerospace engines. The stock is dropping by about 9% in London after the company warned about weaker-than-expected business trends in the first half of this year. The company is also halting its share buyback program.
4. Waiting for an Iran deal:
Investors are waiting for further developments out of Iran. Negotiators from Iran, the United States, China, Germany, France, Britain and Russia are trying to reach a deal to lift sanctions against Iran in exchange for assurances that the country will maintain a peaceful nuclear program.
A June 30 deadline for an agreement has come and gone, so now U.S. negotiators are hoping for a deal later this week.

The euro remained moderately higher against the U.S. dollar on Friday, as investors awaited the outcome of Sunday's Greek referendum and as trading volumes were thin as U.S. markets remained closed for the Independence Day Holiday

In the last few days some surprising events occurred that affected the global markets as well as our signals. The NFP announcement was one of those events which came as a surprise to many, including us. The announcement fell short from the actual forecast which caused the USD to weaken, and investors around the globe to experience losses.
So far, our signals today are doing great as most of them are in the money, and the total payout is $31940.00 (see picture below).
Moreover, as you can see in our website in previous reports, our signals had much better results with 90% success rates, which only strengthen the fact that the recent days do not tell the true story.
As we can see in the poll below, when our users were being asked if the USD would rise following the NFP announcement, 82% said 'Yes' while only close to 18% answered 'No'.
Lately the FOREX market was unstable and more vulnerable. But this is about to change as the Americans won’t let the USD fall, because of the 4th of July celebrations take place this Saturday. We suggest that you register to our services and get our signals to achieve better results in the next days to come.
We recommend our customers that had some bad results in the last few days, to look at the big picture and not get too caught up with them.
If we look towards the future, investors should strongly consider to get more involved in the Commodities markets, especially Crude Oil, Gold and Silver. And to remember, once the EUR and USD experience fallings, be sure to think about trading in Gold and Silver. Also, we recommend to invest in a Stock or Commodity if you sense a serious movement up or down.
Speak with our representatives and trade with better results starting now!
Signals Binary staff wishes you a happy 4th of July!

Here are 4 tips for today's trading. This will help you decide where you should invest and what to look for:
1. Jobs report:
The health of the U.S. economy takes center stage today. June employment and wage figures are due out at 8:30 a.m. ET, one day early thanks to the July 4 holiday.
But pay close attention to the wage figures. Average hourly wages are likely to hold pretty steady at 2.2%, well below the Federal Reserve's 3.5% target. The jobs report is key for the Fed in deciding whether or not to hike interest rates for the first time since the recession began.
2. Greece groans:
Just days before a referendum that is likely to decide the country's future in the eurozone, there are still plenty of surprises coming out of Greece.
European lenders were unmoved Wednesday by the Greek government's surprise bailout U-turn, saying they won't consider any proposals before Sunday's vote.
The International Monetary Fund confirmed that the bankrupt country remains locked out of more support until it pays $1.7 billion owed.
3. China stocks:
Another day, another wild ride for Chinese stocks. The Shanghai Composite closed down 3.5%, while the smaller Shenzhen Index lost 5.6%. Investors in China are getting used to plenty of volatility, despite efforts by Beijing to stabilize the market.
4. Earnings updates:
Food maker McCormick (MKC) and Bassett Furniture (BSET) will release their latest quarterly earnings before the open. Family Dollar (FDO) will report after the close.
