Sterling is attempting to resume recent rally even though there is no clear break through in Brexit negotiations yet. European Council President Donald Tusk said it may take another seven to eight hours before knowing when Brexit may happen. As news and rumors come in, we may seen more commitment from Pound traders. Meanwhile, Dollar shrugs off rather poor retail sales data and trades mixed. Yen continues to pare back some of this week's losses. Commodity currencies remain the worst performing ones. Technically, intraday bias in Sterling remains on the upside as long as these levels holds: 1.2655 minor support in GBP/USD, 137.51 minor support tin GBP/JPY, and 0.8716 minor resistance in EUR/GBP. Traders might want to tighten up their stops ahead of any Brexit announcements. AUD/USD continues to spiral downward towards 0.6710 minor support. Break will be the first sign of down trend resumption and target 0.6670 low. In Europe, currently, FTSE is down -0.40%. DAX is up 0.33%. CAC is down -0.11%. German 10-year yield is up 0.031 at -0.384. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei rose 1.20%. Hong Kong HSI is up 0.61%. China Shanghai SSE dropped -0.41%. Singapore Strait Times is up 0.59%. Japan 10-year JGB yield rose 0.0111 to -0.160. |
