Overview: Today RBA has left its cash rate flat at record low level 1.5% leaving bulls unimpressed by uneventful decision. However, the pair has performed moderate growth over the Asia as RBA in its monetary policy announcement provided traders with neutral hints of Australian economic growth. Moreover, positive data from Australian released earlier also has breathed in some bullish sentiment to the pair. Now all focus shifts to data from US that will be released in NY session and Australian GDP that will also set up further pair’s direction. But for now markets will continue to digest RBA monetary policy decision leading the pair in north direction.

The pair has ignored lower-than-expected German data as now all traders attention shifts to ECB Interest Rate Decision scheduled for this Thursday that is limiting pairs’ volatility, as it remains key event of this week. However, euro bears stay strong lately on the back of political instability across the Eurozone as A.Merkel is suffering a defeat in regional elections with upcoming critical referendum in Italy that is impugning its EU membership.

Overview: Seems that the JPY bulls continue to regain lost ground in early Europe as sell-off seen behind the US dollar is pressuring on the pair. Yesterday the pair managed to erase all its post-NFP gained positions moving toward resistance level of 103.00. However, yens growth seems to be fragile as markets are still digesting dovish speech of BoJ Governor H.Kurodas of policy easing measures that is still weakening the Japanese currency. Today due to absence of fundamentals from Japanese side, the pair will keep tracing markets risky sentiments until NY session that will bring some US releases setting up pair’s short-term direction.
