Daily Market Outlook on EUR/USD - 1.3659

Update Time: 06 Jun 2014 01:01GMT

Despite Thursday's sell off to a near 4-month trough of 1.3503 after ECB's bold stimulus measures, intra-day swift rally due to active short-covering and subsequent strong gain above 1.3650 res to 1.3670 confirms euro's decline from May's near 2-1/2 year peak at 1.3995 has formed a temporary low there and several days of choppy consolidation with upside bias is envisaged.

As long as 1.3586 (previous sup) holds, further gain to 1.3690/00 is expected later today, however, near term overbought condition should cap euro's upside below res at 1.3734 today.

. GBP/USD - 1.6809... Despite cable's brief jump to 1.6793 in European morning due partly to cross-buying in sterling, price fell after BoE kept its monetary policy unchanged. Cable then briefly dropped to 1.6723 but only to rally in tandem with euro to session high of 1.6825 in NY afternoon.

. Looking at the hourly n daily charts, y'day close abv Tue's high of 1.6782 signals cable's decline fm May's near 5-year peak at 1.6997 (Reuters) has indeed made a temporary low at last Thur's 5-week trough at 1.6693 n as long as sup at 1.6758 (50% r fm 1.6693) holds, gain to 1.6845 n then 1.6883 is likely, being the 'natural' 50% r of 1.6997-1.6693 n May's 27 high respectively, however, as hourly oscillators wud be in o/bot territory on such a move, upside wud falter below pivotal res at 1.6923 (May 21 high) n yield retreat next week.

. In view of abv analysis, buying cable on dips in anticipated of further gain to 1.6860/70 is favoured today but profit shud be taken on upmove. On the downside, only below 1.6723 wud suggest aforesaid correction fm 1.6693 is over n shift risk to the downside for re-test of 1.6693, however, this move is unlikely to be seen today.

.EUR/USD - 1.3647... The single currency remained under pressure initially last week due to mounting speculation of 'bold' stimulus measures fm the ECB. Although euro briefly tumbled to a near 4-month trough of 1.3503 after anticipated ECB's action, short-covering lifted price to 1.3670, then 1.3677 on Fri.

. Let's look at the daily picture 1st, although euro's aforesaid rally fm last Thur's 1.3503 low confirms the decline fm May's 2-1/2 year peak at 1.3995 has finally formed a temporary low there n several days of choppy consolidation is expected this week, as long as 1.3586 (previous low n also good sup) holds, mild upside bias remains for price to stage a corrective rise to 1.3691, this is the 'minimum' 38.2% r of the entire fall fm 1.3995-1.3503, however, as hourly oscillators' readings wud display 'bearish divergences' on such a move, strg gain beyond there is not envisaged n reckon euro wud hold below below previous daily res at 1.3734 (May 19 high) n bring another decline later this week.

. Today, Fri's retreat fm 1.3677 signals 1st leg of correction fm 1.3503 has ended n as many European centres are closed for Whit Monday holiday, consolidation is in store, so trading euro on both sides of the market is favoured.
