Weekly Technical Update: Greenback Weakened Post Non-Farm Payroll
The USD was in consolidation/ correction mode this week ahead of the NFP. This is in a sense the market's way of paring some overextended USD gains, but also offers a chance for the market to continue with greenback strength. There was some dollar strength immediately after the release, but
USDJPY: Retains Its Broader Downside Bias
USDJPY: The pair continues to retain its broader downside bias as it looks to recapture its YTD low at 83.58 despite its price hesitation. A breach of there will open the door for more downside towards the 82.00 level, its psycho level with a cut through there aiming at the 81.00 level.
EUR/GBP Developing a Double Top; Reward to Risk Assessment
The daily chart shows the EUR/GBP going up against a declining trendline. The market is reacting by pausing the rally at 50% retracement, 0.8350 level. Note the RSI is remaining under 60 for now and is turning lower. The 0.8400 area is 61.8% retracement, and is the resistance zone for
FX Thoughts for the Day
Cable has been moving in a small range of 1.5350-450 and may move within the same region till the US session today. Later today, or in the coming days, we expect the pair to move down towards the Support at 1.5300 (honour it or test it on a weekly basis),

Risk Rebounds on Improving Global Data
The past week began with disappointment stemming from Japan's lack of direct currency intervention and risk aversion looked probable to continue into the week. This was not the case as better than expected Australian 2Q GDP started a ripple effect culminating into a global wave of positive data surprises. Upbeat
Is this an Audacious Obama Hope Rally?
The strong rally in risk into today's close in the US today can't be about this week's economic data particularly as the ISM non-manufacturing index for August showed a steep deceleration. So why the rally? The combination of an equity rally and a lousy ISM resulted in the predictable
The QE Case for Gold & Silver
The case for metals remains not that of outright inflation but that of central banks prolonged liquidity drives. Currencies will gain/fall versus one another, but fresh asset purchases will maintain gold and silver ahead.
