Greek Elections - Alexis Tsipras secures clear victory

This is the third time Greeks have voted this year after the January elections which saw Alexis Tsipras coming to power, a referendum in July which was to reject the reform proposals of its European creditors and this time.

Turnout in this poll was just over 55%, down from 63% in January and low by Greek standards.

"The mandate that the Greek people have given is a crystal clear mandate to get rid of the regime of corruption and vested issues. We will show how effective we will be. We will make Greece a stronger place for the weak and vulnerable, a fairer place" - Alexis Tsipras.

Eurozone officials have welcomed the re-election of Mr. Tsipras as the PM of the country after he secured third bail-out deal for Greece in five years.

"Now a solid government ready to deliver is needed quickly" - President of the European parliament, German Martin Schulz.

"From Monday, we are ready to collaborate to implement the programme to reform the Greek economy" - Italy's La Stampa.

"Given how challenging the bail-out agenda is between now and year-end, a return of the previous coalition isn't great news" - Mujtaba Rahman, head of Europe practice at the Eurasia Group.

Currently, the lower arm of the triangle is 119.20, and the upper arm 120.90. If the lower arm of the triangle breaks below, downward movement will lead price to 118.30.

However, if bulls break above the upper arm of the triangle the next levels of resistance will be located at 122.00 and 125.20. Successfull break above that levels will confirm that the correction on USDJPY has now been completed and the price goes back to the uptrend.

China manufacturing PMI falls to lowest in more than 6 years

Activity in China's manufacturing sector unexpectedly shrank to a 6½-year low in September, indicating a sharper slowdown in the world's second-largest economy that could spell more turmoil for financial markets.

The preliminary Markit China Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) fell to 47.0 in September, the worst since March 2009 and below market expectations of 47.5 and August's final 47.3. Levels below 50 signify a contraction.

Global investors and policymakers are on edge over China after the U.S. central bank last week held off from raising interest rates, saying it was unsure if international problems and China's slowdown in particular, will hurt the U.S. recovery - Reuters.

"The weaker-than-expected PMI suggested domestic and external demand remained sluggish. It's almost certain China's economic growth will slide below 7 percent in the second half of this year" - Minsheng Securities.

"The principle reason for the weakening of manufacturing is tied to previous changes in factors related to external demand and prices" - Chief economist at Caixin Insight Group.

"Fiscal expenditures surged in August, pointing to stronger government efforts on the fiscal policy front. Patience may be needed for policies designed to promote stabilization to demonstrate their effectiveness" - Chief economist at Caixin Insight Group.

The Asian Development Bank has cut its estimate for China's growth to 6.8 percent for 2015. It expects the growth rate of the world's second largest economy will fall to 6.7 percent in 2016.

Mario Draghi, European Central Bank President, will speak on monetary policy before the European Parliament’s Economic and Monetary Committee providing insight into whether the central bank is contemplating expanding its bond buying and if so, when.

The Eurozone continues to experience extremely low levels of inflation and unemployment is very high.

The UK manufacturing sector growth stalled for the first time in more than two years, with a stronger Pound and weak exports weighing on the sector's margins and volumes.

The trade surplus in Switzerland contracted in August, as the strength of the Swiss Franc hit demand in the European Union and China.

Crude oil is trading higher at $46.80 as market survey points to fall of crude oil stocks.

Gold is trading lower in the Europe at 1127.06, while Silver is up at 14.79

AUDNZD - a trend reversal or just a corrective rebound?

Since 4 months AUDNZD moves in a consolidation between 1.0900 and 1.1430. On August 24 there was a dynamic upward movement. Within a 30 minutes candle price moves up and fall about 900 pips. Since then the price has reduced the range of its movement. Right now it moves in the consolidation between 1.0900 and 1.1340. AUDNZD now rebounded from the resistance at the indicated level and is heading 1.0900.

Wider view, interval W1

Since 5 years AUDNZD moves in a downward trend but the minimum, which took place at the beginning of April this year, begins to indicate a possibility of trend reversal. Direction of breakout from flag will be very important. Flag is a pattern of trend continuation and it should be break above. Break above will give a chance even to trend reversal. However, if the flag breaks below, then this whole movement will take the form of a rebound and AUD/NZD will come back to the main trend (the downward one).
