Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. EUR/CHF tested a three-month high Today EUR/CHF tested a fresh 3.5-month high of 1.2180 after a two-day rally. There’s now a correction: the pair slid to 1.2160. Euro went up as yesterday the ECB dampened the expectations of an interest rate cut. Today franc extended a decline after the Swiss December CPI fell more than expected.

Support lies at $1.0525, $1.0500 and $1.0470. On the upside the target is at $1.0635 (Sept. 14 high). The outlook will change to negative below $1.0470. Chart.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. EUR/USD: up we go As we expected yesterday, EUR/USD jumped from the strong support at $1.3030 (50-day MA, Nov.-Jan. trend line support). The ECB Chief Mario Draghi said on a press-conference that there is no need to change rates. Euro is now consolidating slightly down from yesterday’s highs of $1.3270. The technical picture remains positive. Yesterday EUR/USD broke above the strong resistance (now support) at $1.3150. The December highs of $1.3310 came in view. Offers concentrated in the $1.3280/1.3300 area provoked the current selling. In our view, euro could rise above $1.3310 after some more correction. Keep in mind the reversal pattern reminding “head-and-shoulders”, forming on a weekly chart. The complete bullish reversal would confirm above $1.3500. Support: $1.3200, $1.3150, $1.3100, $1.3030.

The pair continues the recovery from 0.9090 (Dec. lows) and is trying to form a bottom. The pair is supported at 0.9200. Dollar may find support on expectations of lowering of the Fed easing volumes.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. Jan. 10: Asian session USD/JPY rose above 88.00 approaching 2 1/2 year-high (88.41) set last Friday. Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has once again urged the Bank of Japan to double its inflation target. BOJ’s Governor Shirakawa said yesterday the central bank was in close cooperation with the government, raising speculation policy makers will boost stimulus when they meet Jan. 21-22. Watch for Japanese current account data released tonight (analysts expect deficit). AUD/USD rose to $0.0550 on better-than-expected Chinese data (Chinese exports rose by 14.1% in Dec. y/y, while imports added 6%). NZD/USD is trading on the upside, at $0.8400. EUR/USD slid to $1.3045. For now the pair is supported by the 50-day MA at $1.3030. Investors remain quiet ahead of the ECB meeting (12:45 GMT) and, especially, the ECB press conference (13:30 GMT). No monetary policy changes are expected, but the euro could be pulled down by the “dovish” Mario Draghi’s comments. According to most analysts, the regulator remains in a wait-and-see mode. GPB/USD is consolidating around $1.6010 (May-Dec. 2012 trend line support). Cable is also calm ahead of the BoE MPC meeting (12:00 GMT). USD/CAD slid from session highs and is trading around 0.9870.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. EUR/USD: news from the battlefield EUR/USD keeps consolidating around $1.3080. Euro hovers around the 200-period MA on H4 chart and is slightly above 23.6% Fibonacci retracement from the recent decline. The pair lacks stimulus to unglue from the $1.3080 mark. As for today’s releases, final euro zone Q3 GDP is likely to come unchanged at -0.1% q/q, while the German industrial production figures are expected to be positive. Anyway, we don’t expect any strong moves before the tomorrow ECB meeting. Monetary policy is likely to remain unchanged, but Mario Draghi may pressure the euro with some dovish comments. UBS: A recovery through resistance at $1.3185 is required to resume strength, opening the way to $1.3310. Support lies at $1.2985/09. Сhart. H4 EUR/USD Have a profitable trade with FBS!

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. EUR/USD: news from the battlefield EUR/USD has bottomed above $1.3000 twice during the past week and tested $1.3140 today. On the upside euro’s limited by important MAs at H4 and H1. There’s also the key resistance at $1.3150. The pair’s influenced by a lot of different factors these days and any may cause significant market moves. Data released today showed that German trade surplus narrowed to 14.6 billion euro in November. The announcement by Japan of its commitment to purchase ESM bonds starting as early as today also helped underpin the single currency. The market’s also awaiting the ECB meeting on Thursday – the speculation that the central bank might refrain from signaling more interest rate cuts when it meets on Thursday supports EUR/USD. All eyes are on the euro zone’s unemployment rate at 10:00 GMT (jobless rate may have increased from 11.7% to 11.8% as the forecasts say) and German factory orders. In US watch comments by Richmond FRB President Jeffrey Lacker at 8 p.m. GMT for hints about the Fed’s approach to easing. There may be more caution among investors as US earnings season starts today. Resistance: $1.3150, $1.3170, $1.3190. Support: $1.3090, $1.3070, $1.3020, $1.3000. Chart. H4 EUR/USD Have a profitable trade with FBS!

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. USD/CHF: Commerzbank, FBS USD/CHF has reached resistance line of 6-month downtrend so far. The pair dipped below 0.9100 for several times, but didn’t close below there. The recent minor new low of 0.9083 francs was not confirmed by the daily or weekly RSI. Technical analysts at Commerzbank suspect that the market is attempting to base – this idea will be confirmed if US dollar closes above resistance of 0.9280/0.9300. If it happens, initial target on the upside will be situated at 0.9430 (200-day MA). Support is at 0.9215/0.9190 and at 0.9090 (recent lows, 100-week MA). We’d like to add that the pair’s still within the weekly Ichimoku Cloud which makes it vulnerable for a potential decline to its bottom (at least around 0.8840), so the bulls will need great effort to break the downtrend.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. Jan. 8: Asian session USD/JPY retreated from the 2-1/2-year highs reached on Friday (88.41) to the levels in the 87.50 rea. Yen gained on speculation recent declines were excessive. AUD/USD slid after data showed the nation’s trade deficit widened to A$2.64 billion, the most since 2008. Aussie’s capped by $1.0500. EUR/USD is trading up for a third day in a row. The pair rebounded to $1.3130 after having tested the levels below $1.3000 last Friday. Euro found support as the Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said Japan will buy bonds issued by the euro zone’s ESM bailout fund. Today watch the German and French trade balance data (07:00 and 07:45 GMT respectively), euro zone’s November retail sales and unemployment rate (10:00 GMT) and German factory orders (11:00 GMT). EUR/JPY is rather steady today having bounced from earlier lows after Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said Japan will buy bonds issued by the euro zone's ESM bailout fund. GBP/USD is consolidating around $1.6110. USD/CAD remains in the same 0.9840/85 range. Today the pair rose to 0.9870. Yesterday Canada published a more positive than expected Ivey PMI.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. USD: estimating NFP results US Non-Farm Payrolls increased by 155K in December (forecast: 150K; previous: 161K). There were minor upward revisions to the readings of the prior 2 months. The unemployment rate rose from 7.7% to 7.8%. The fact that the Fed members are starting to consider ending QE3 in 2013 may be a big driver for USD. Investors will likely be paying more and more attention to US economic releases. If American fundamentals keep improving, the possibility of an end to QE may be taken more seriously. The trade will likely to be quite volatile. Pimco: US jobs report is “solid, but not great”. Capital Economics: The overall picture is that the labor market remains lackluster. If this state of affairs continues throughout most of this year, as we expect, then it is hard to see the Fed dialing back or stopping its quantitative-easing purchases as some officials currently envisage.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. CFTC: US Dollar shorts at highest since October Here are the essentials of the latest Commitments of Traders (COT) report, released on Friday, January 4, by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) for a week ended December 31. The USD net short positions increased to $9 bln in the week ended Dec. 31 from a net short position of $6.49 bln the previous week. It’s necessary to note that the figures cited above are always a week old at the time of their release. Never the less, CFTC data gives a good oversight into how the market is positioned and if/how these positions are being unwound. Although the CME speculators represent a small fraction of trading in the currency markets, their trades are widely seen as typical of hedge fund investors' currency movements.

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. EUR/USD: news from the battlefield EUR/USD slid from the levels in the $1.3300 area and touched $1.3000 on Friday – this is a good support (psychological level; 55-week MA). The selling signals may be false as $1.3000 held initial bearish attack on Friday making EUR/USD bounce up to $1.3090. If euro fails to hold above this level, it will become extremely vulnerable for a decline to $1.2950, $1.2920/2880, $1.2800 and $1.2660. Main resistance lies at $1.3125 (Dec. 5 high) and $1.3150 (the bottom the previous consolidation range). There may be quite many selling orders up there (potential good entry for bears). Today have a look at Sentix Investor Confidence (9:30 GMT) and European PPI. There will be no releases in the US. In addition, demand for euro is limited ahead of euro zone’s employment data (jobless rate may have increased from 11.7% to 11.8% as the forecasts say) and German factory orders released tomorrow. Watch for the ECB meeting on Thursday. It seems that the central bank policy is the most important driver of EUR for now. Chart. Daily EUR/USD Have a profitable trade with FBS!

Market Analytics:FBS Markets Inc. Jan. 7: Asian session USD/JPY is trading just below 88.00. The pair slightly declined after reaching yesterday more than 2-½-year high of 88.41. Yen weakened on the increased speculation that Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe will do more to spur the nation’s growth. According to the Yomiuri newspaper, Japanese government will announce around 12 trillion yen ($136 billion) in fiscal stimulus this month. EUR/USD opened the week not far from Friday’s post-NFP close of $1.3080, but then slid into the $1.3040 area. The pair slid from the $1.3300 highs despite the positive fiscal cliff agreement. Euro keeps depreciating, but for now the losses are limited by the 50-day MA at $1.3030. US dollar has strengthened so far as the minutes of the Fed’s December meeting released last week showed that the policymakers may end $85 billion in monthly bond purchases (QE3 and 4) sometime in 2013. Watch Richmond FRB President Jeffrey Lacker speak tomorrow. AUD/USD is moving sideways with resistance at $1.0500 and support around $1.0400. NZD/USD is trading around $0.8300.
