. USD/CHF - 0.9178... Despite initial dlr's decline fm 0.9164 (Asia) to

0.9138 at European open due to intra-day rebound in eur/usd, renewed weakness in

euro plus rebound in eur/chf cross helped the pair ratchet higher, dlr later

climbed one tick abv Mon top to a fresh 9-month high of 0.9181 in NY.

. Let's look at the daily picture 1st, y'day's rise to 0.9181 confirms the

3-legged MT upmove fm Mar's near 2-1/2 year bottom at 0.8698 has once again

resumed n further headway to 0.9200/02 (psychological lvl n 80.9% projection of

0.9024-0.9146 measured fm 0.9104 respectively) is seen. Abv said upside targets

wud extend marginally, however, anticipated 'bearish divergences' on the hourly

indicators wud prevent strg gain n reckon price wud hold well below daily res at

0.9251 (Nov '13) n yield a much-needed correction later this week. On the down-

side, only below 0.9104 wud indicate a temporary top has been made n risk stron-

ger retracement twd 0.9058 (last Wed's low), then twds 0.9024 (Aug 15 bottom).

. Today, in view of abv analysis, one can buy dlr on dips for marginal

gain after consolidation or sell on next intra-day upmove in expectation of a

minor correction to take place. Below 0.9138 signals temp. top made, 0.9104/07.

Intra-Day Market Moving New and Views

27 Aug 2014 08:43GMT

GBP/USD - ..... Despite a marginal breach of yesterday's low at 1.6539 to 1.6537 at Asian open, lack of follow-through selling triggered short-covering and the British pound rose to 1.6575 in early European morning. However, renewed selling emerged there and pressured the pair lower to 1.6554. Further choppy trading is likely to be seen ahead of NY open due partly to the absence of eco. data releases from UK.

Offers have now been raised to 1.6590/00 and more above at 1.6610/15 with stops building up above there whilst initial bids are noted at 1.6520/30.

This morning trading cable was tricky on Tue as despite an initial rebound from 1.6566 to 1.6595 in Asia, renewed broad-based strength in greenback capped intra-day gain and the pound later fell in tandem with euro to 1.6540 near NY close.

Price briefly weakened to 1.6537 shortly after Asian open on renewed decline in eur/usd, however, bids above Monday's fresh 4-1/2 month low at 1.6535 lifted price.

Bids are noted at 1.6540-35 with stop below 1.6530 but demand fm real money accounts are touted near 1.6500/05. On the upside, offers are located at 1.6560/70 and more at 1.6590/00 with stop reported abv 1.6620, therefore, selling cable on intra-day recovery is the way to go. No U.K. data are due out today, so the pound shud track intra-day move in eur/usd.

 

AceTraderFx Aug 28: Daily Market Outllook on Major -EUR/USD

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK EUR/USD - 1.3193

Update Time: 28 Aug 2014 00:36 GMT

Although euro's rally from yesterday's fresh near 1-year low at 1.3152 (Asia) to 1.3210 in New York signals mid-term downtrend from May's 2-1/2 year peak at 1.3995 has made a temporary low there, reckon 1.3220/24 would limit upside and bearishness remains for further weakness to 1.3120/30 after consolidation.

However, loss of momentum should keep price above 1.3105 today and risk a 'much-needed' minor correction later.

On the upside, only a daily close above 1.3220/24 would shift risk to upside for stronger retracement towards 1.3261 but resistance at 1.3296 should remain intact.

Intra-Day Market Moving News & Views USD/JPY

28 Aug 2014 02:43GMT

USD/JPY- ..... Despite a recovery from 103.79 to 104.00 in NY session, dlr came under renewed selling pressure shortly after Tokyo open n briefly weakened to 103.70 as fall in Nikkei triggered broad-based buying in yen (N225 was last seen down 80 points to 15454).

Although dlr's intra-day breach of yesterday's NY low at 103.75 suggests further choppy trading below Mon's 7-month peak at 104.49 would continue, sharp fall is unlikely ahead of the release of a slew of U.S. data (U.S. Q2 GDP, PCE, jobless claims n pending home sales) in NY morning.

Therefore, trading dlr from both sides of the market is recommended.

Bids are placed at 103.70/65 n 103.55 with stops emerging just below 103.50. On the upside, offers are noted at 103.80-90 n then 104.00 with stops located above 104.10.

Japan's FinMin is to request record 25.8238 tln yen for debt servicing costs for fiscal 2015/16.

Last night despite dollar's brief bounce to 104.16 in Asian morning, selling interest below penetrated Tuesday's NY res at 104.17 capped dollar's upside and price ratcheted lower to 103.79 in New York morning before trading sideways. Offers are now tipped at 104.00-10 whilst some bids are located at 103.80-75 with some stops seen below there but buying interest is located well above 103.50 sup.

Federal Reserve said to hold open meeting on Sept 3 on final rules for liquidity ratio, margin for non-cleared swaps.

Thursdaywill see the release of Australia's HIA new home sales, building Capex and capital expenditure, Germany's unemployment rate and change, Italy's retail sales, eurozone business climate, consumer confidence and economic and industrial sentiment; U.K. CBI distributive trades; Germany's CPI and HICP, Canada's current account, U.S. PCE, GDP and pending home sales on Thursday.

USD/JPY- .... Dlr went through a mini 'roller-coaster' session on Thur. Although broad-based buying in yen due to renewed geopolitical tensions in Ukraine pressured price to 103.56 in Thursday's Europe, release of upbeat 2nd reading of U.S. GDP lifted price to 103.90 in NY morning but only to retreat to 103.65 in NY afternoon.

Today, traders have showed muted reaction to the early release of a slew of mixed economic reports from Japan (including unemployment rate, all household spending, CPI, industrial production and retail sales), suggesting consolidation above said yesterday's 103.56 low would continue, therefore, buying dlr on dips is still the favoured strategy.

Bids are noted at 103.60-50 with stops below 103.50, whilst offers are placed at 103.85/90 and above with stops emerging above 104.20.

Fridaywill see the release of Japan's unemployment rate, CPI, industrial output and retail sales, New Zealand's business outlook, Australia's housing credit and private sector credit, Japan's housing starts and construction orders, Swiss KOF indicator, Italy's unemployment rate, eurozone inflation and unemployment rate, U.S. PCE, personal consumption and income, Canada's GDP, producer prices and raw material prices, U.S. Chicago PMI, University of Michigan condition and expectations.

Intra-Day Market Moving New and Views GBP/USD

29 Aug 2014

GBP/USD - .... 2 pieces of news to suggest selling eur/gbp cross is the way to go after yesterday's downbeat EZ economic sentiment. Earlier on Fri, data from research firm GfK showed consumer confidence edged up in the U.K. in Aug, driven by the fast improvement of the economy during the last year.

GfK's consumer confidence index increased to +1 in August from -2 in previous month. GfK said the improvement in consumer confidence largely reflects a reassessment of the recent past by households, although people are also increasingly optimistic about the future. However, Nick Moon, MD of social research at GfK said 'There is no guarantee how long this stable position will last - a rush of good or bad economic news could set off a marked rise or fall - but things could stay like this for a while,.'

The survey also registered an increase in the consumers' will to both save and make major purchases, such as furniture or electrical goods. These results are consistent with the recent CBI Distributive Trades Survey, which showed a great majority of businesses reporting higher sales volumes, with furniture retailers ranking on top.

Reuters reported, 'Of the 142 firms surveyed in the CBI's distributive trades survey, a balance of +25% of retailers expected their overall business situation to improve over the next three months, which was the highest since May 2002.' 'The CBI added that 51% said sales in August were up on a year ago, while 14% said they were down. That gave a balance of +37%, up on July's +21% n matching Feb's 21-month high.'

Cable swung wildly in volatile session on Thursday. Although the pound rose in tandem with euro n briefly climbed above Wednesday's high at 1.6606 to 1.6615 in Europe, renewed tensions in Ukraine triggered broad-based buying in dlr and cable briefly fell to 1.6567. Later, price rebounded to 1.6599 on cross-buying of sterling vs eur & yen and then chopped inside 1.6567-1.6599 in NY session.

The failure to close above 1.6600 level after a second day testing Thursday suggests consolidation with downside bias remains and selling cable on recovery for marginal weakness below Mon's 4-1/2 is is recommended. Offers from various accounts are noted up from 1.6590 to 1.6610 and more at 1.6630-40 with stops emerging above 1.6650. On the downside, bids are placed at 1.6550-40 and then 1.6525/20 with demand from real money accounts located around 1.6500.

On the data front, U.K. will release the nationwide house prices in August at 06:00GMT. Market forecasts the reading to be unchanged at 0.1% in monthly basis but slightly lower to 10.1% from a year earlier.

A daily close abv 1.3221 wud signal temp. low is made, then euro wud head twd 1.3280/90 next week b4 prospect of another fall.

On the upside, only a daily close above 1.3160 would indicate a temporarty low has been made and risk retracement towards 1.3196 but last week top at 1.3221 should remain intact.

01 Sep 2014 02:22GMT

EUR/USD - .... 2 pieces of euro bearish news on Reuters worth noting which had caused the single currency to open lower in NZ today.

ECB executive board member Benoit Coeure said in an essay published in Greek newspaper Ta Nea on Sat the ECB is ready to adjust its monetary policy further if needed and boost bank liquidity. Coeure said the ECB's measures so far have contributed to stability in the euro zone while its recent decisions have ensured a particularly accommodative direction in monetary policy in the single-currency bloc.

He then said "The ECB will provide additional liquidity to banks on the condition that they increase credit directed to the real economy, n it is ready to further adjust the direction of its monetary policy, if needed."

French PM Manuel Valls reiterated on Sun calls for the ECB to go "further" in tackling the problem of an overvalued euro. Speaking at a Socialist party gathering in La Rochelle, Valls said the ECB's June decision to cut interest rates was a "strong signal" but more was needed.

Euro trades at intra-day fresh near 1-year trough of 1.3122 after opening lower below Fri's 1.3132 low on weekend euro bearish news.

However, selling was not particularly heavy on this Asian Mon morning as markets in U.S. are closed for Labor Day holiday (Canada is also closed too).

Offers are noted at 1.3135/40 n more abv with stops reported abv 1.3200. Some bids are touted at 1.3110-00 with stops below there, suggesting selling euro on recovery is the way to go.
