Euro is trading as one of the weakest major currencies, together with Canadian Dollar, for today. There is little inspiration from ECB rate decision and press conference. Canadian Dollar is weak on free fall in oil price, with WTI pressing 55 handle now. Australian Dollar continues to be the strongest one for today, as supported by better than expected employment data. But upside is relatively limited. Yen is the second strongest on risk aversion. Global sentiments are pressured after China locks up two cities today to contain the outbreak of the new coronavirus. Technically, EUR/USD is now pressing 1.1066 support. Decisive break there will add to the case of completion of corrective rebound from 1.0879 at 1.1239. Deeper fall should then be seen to 1.0981 support for confirmation. EUR/CHF has already broken 1.0724 support to resume medium term down trend towards 1.0648 projection level. In Europe, currently, FTSE is down -0.41%. CAC is down -0.59%. CAC is down -0.31%. German 10-year yield is down -0.028 at -0.287. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei dropped -0.98%. Hong Kong HSI dropped -1.52%. China Shanghai SSE dropped -2.75%. Singapore Strait Times dropped -0.60%.
