Major forex pairs and crosses are staying inside yesterday's range as trading turned subdued. US futures are nearly flat despite mild weakness in European markets. Europe majors are currently the strongest ones for the week, as led by Sterling. The Pound is paying no attention to the deadlock in Brexit negotiations. Commodity currencies are the weaker ones together with Yen. Dollar is also soft with a failed rally attempt. On the other hand, Gold's up trend continues today and breaks 1800 handle. Technically, sustained trading above 1800 in gold would pave the way to 61.8% projection of 1451.16 to 1765.25 from 1670.66 at 1864.76. Elsewhere, we'd continue to see if there is follow through in risk reversal that push commodity currencies lower. In particular, 78.93 minor support in CAD/JPY and 74.32 minor support in AUD/JPY will be watched for sign of more near term decline. Meanwhile, 1.3624 minor resistance in USD/CAD and 0.6901 minor support in AUD/USD will also be watched for near term weakness in Canadian and Australian too. In Europe, currently, FTSE is down -0.36%. DAX is down -0.59%. CAC is down -1.03%. Germany 10-year yield is down -0.0264 at -0.453. Earlier in Asia, Nikkei dropped -0.78%. Hong Kong HSI rose 0.59%. China Shanghai SSE rose 1.74%. Singapore Strait Times rose 0.30%. Japan 10-year JGB yield dropped -0.0214 to 0.018. |
