USD/JPY- ..... Dlr rallied to 123.24 in NY on Wednesday as release of a slew of upbeat U.S. eco. data led to broad-based demand for the greenback.

Despite a brief retreat to 122.89 on profit-taking and in part due to cross-buying in yen, dlr rebounded in NY afternoon and rose to 123.43 in Tokyo morning on Thursday as gain in the Nikkei boosted risk appetite (N225 was last seen up 1.18% at 20570).

AceTraderFx Jul 2: Daily Recommendations on Major -USD/JPY

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK

Update Time: 02 Jul 2015 08:17 GMT

USD/JPY - 123.57

Dollar's rebound from Tuesday's fresh 1-month trough at 121.94 and then yesterday breach of 123.19/23 signals decline from June's near 13-year peak at 125.86 has formed a temporary low there and consolidation with upside bias remains.

However, break of resistance at 123.99 is needed to retain bullishness for stronger gain towards 124.40/50 later.

On the downside, only a daily close below 122.61 (previous resistance, now support) would indicate correction is over and yield weakness towards 122.10.

02 Jul 2015 08:20GMT

EUR/USD- ...... Although the single currency recovered after early intra-day fall to 1.1032 ahead of Asian open and then staged a brief rise to 1.1087 in European morning in part due to cross-buying in euro, renewed selling quickly emerged there and knocked price down to 1.1048.

Looks like range bound inside 1.1032-1.1087 would continue ahead of NY open as investors are reluctant to enter large positions ahead of the release of important U.S. jobs report in NY morning.

At the moment, offers are noted at 1.1070-80 and then around 1.1200 with stops building up just above there, whist bids are tipped at 1.1040/35 and more around 1.1020/15 with mixture of bids and stops at 1.1000.

Although cable staged a rebound from a fresh 2-1/2 week trough at 1.5580 in European morning on Thur n climbed to 1.5624 after release of upbeat Markit/CIPS construction PMI, active cross-selling in sterling knocked price lower to 1.5562 in NY morning before broad-based weakness in the greenback lifted price briefly to 1.5640 after tepid U.S. jobs data. Later, cable edged lower to 1.5592 near NY close and then climbed back to 1.5624 in Asia on Friday.

Today's focus for the British pound is on the release of important Markit/CIPS service PMI at 08:30GMT.

At the moment, bids are tipped in 1.5580-60 region with stops building below 1.5550, whilst offers are reported at 1.5630-40 with selling interest from various accounts up from 1.5660 to 1.5680.

EUR/USD - 1.1095

Despite euro's retreat to as low as 1.1032 on Thursday after Monday's strong rally from a fresh 1-month trough at 1.0955 to as high as 1.1279, yesterday's intra-day rebound to 1.1122 in New York morning on tepid U.S. jobs reports suggests further choppy sideways trading would continue until the Greek referendum on July 5.

Above 1.1122 would yield gain to 1.1171 but reckon 1.1200/10 would cap upside today, whilst below 1.1032 would bring further weakness to 1.0990-1.1000 before rebound occurs.

USD/JPY - 123.10

Dollar's retreat after rallying from Tuesday's fresh 1-month trough at 121.94 to as high as 123.75 yesterday suggests the first leg of correction has ended there and choppy trading with downside bias would be seen.

However, reckon price would keep above 122.10 support and bring rebound later.

On the upside, only a move back above 123.75 would signal decline from June's near 13-year peak at 125.86 is still being retraced and yield another corrective up move to 123.99 and then 124.40/50 next week.

EUR/USD - 1.1020

Despite euro's gap-down open on Monday and then a sell off to 1.0969 following Greek 'No' vote, subsequent rebound suggests further choppy trading inside near term established range of 1.0955-1.1279 would continue but only a daily close above 1.1122 would encourage for further gain to 1.1171 and then 1.1244 before prospect of a retreat.

Below 1.0955 would signal early fall from June's peak at 1.1440 has resumed and extend weakness towards 1.0887 but key support at 1.0819 (May's bottom) should hold on 1st testing.

USD/JPY- ...... Despite dlr's 'gap-down' open on Mon to a fresh 1-month trough at 121.70 in NZ as the Greek 'no' vote results triggered active cros-buying of yen on risk aversion, short-covering quickly lifted price ahead of Asian and dlr later climbed back to 122.71 in Tokyo morning before easing.

Although aforesaid intra-day rebound suggests consolidation with mild upside bias would be seen ahead of European open, intra-day weakness in Nikkei index (N225 was last seen down 1.36% to 20261) should prevent sharp gain above 122.00 level and yield retreat later, therefore, whilst buying on dips is recommended in Asia, position traders can look to sell on next intra-day rise.

At the moment, bids are noted at 122.30-20 and around 122.00 with stops located below 121.70, whilst offers from various accounts are tipped at 122.90-00 and then 123.20-30 with stops building just above 123.50.
