Dollar rebounds strongly as risk of imminent escalation in US-Iran tensions seem to have eased. It's reported there was no casualties caused by Iran's retaliation strikes against US forces in Iraq. The greenback is additionally supported by strong ADP employment report. Dollar follows New Zealand Dollar as second strongest. On the other hand, Euro is the weakest one for now, followed by Yen, and then Sterling. Gold and oil reversed earlier gains and are both trading lower for the day. Technically, USD/JPY's focus is immediately back on 108.86 minor resistance. Break should confirm completion of consolidation from 109.27 at 107.65. Further rise should then be seen back to retest 109.27 high. EUR/CHF should be finally getting rid of 1.0811 low decisively. Larger down trend is resuming for 1.0648 projection level.
