Trading in the forex markets remain quiet in Asian session today, with major pairs and crosses staying in yesterday's range. Canadian Dollar is lifted mildly by positive news regarding USMCA, but gains are so far limited. New Zealand Dollar is, for now, the strongest one, followed by Sterling. On the other hand, Yen is the weakest, together with Swiss Franc and Dollar. UK GDP and German ZEW might provide some more volatility. Technically, GBP/USD and EUR/GBP are both losing some momentum as seen in 4 hour MACD. But there is no sign of topping in the Pound yet. Sterling will likely remain firm, awaiting Thursday's UK elections. USD/CHF, USD/JPY and USD/CAD are staying in familiar range, EUR/USD and AUD/USD too. These pairs may wait for tomorrow's FOMC projections before having a decisive breakout. In Asia, Nikkei dropped -0.09%. Hong Kong HSI is down -0.16%. China Shanghai SSE is up 0.06%. Singapore Strait Times is down -0.02%. Japan 10-year JGB yield is down -0.0143 at -0.020. Overnight, DOW dropped -0.38%. S&P 500 dropped -0.32%. NASDAQ dropped -0.40%. 10-year yield dropped -0.013 to 1.829, but stayed above 1.8 handle. |
