EUR - Beware of the ECB

Since the last ECB meeting, we have seen more improvements than deterioration in the Eurozone economy. In Germany specifically, consumer spending has been healthy, unemployment rolls have declined, leading to an improvement in business and investor confidence. However the strength was not without areas of weakness. Businesses and investors grew more optimistic about future economic activity but more grim about current activity. Considering that the current performance of the economy is what really matters, the ECB may look beyond everyone's hope for improvement. Also stronger service sector activity in the region's largest economy was offset by a deeper contraction in manufacturing. So as you can see the recovery in the Eurozone is uneven and when combined with a 5% sell-off in the DAX, since the last meeting the ECB has very little to be optimistic about.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Appreciation above the resistance at 1.3015 (R1) might commence new step of the ascending structure. Our intraday targets today are placed at 1.3035 (R2) and 1.3053 (R3). Downwards scenario: Risk of the downtrend development is seen below the support level at 1.2984 (S1). Weakening below this mark might clear the way towards to immediate supports at 1.2965 (S2) and 1.2945 (S3). ECB interest rate announcement is a key factor today.

EUR and GBP Crushed by ECB and BoE

Big moves are happening in the FX market yesterday. The euro and British pound dropped to 5 week lows against the U.S. dollar, taking out key levels in the process. The absence of U.S. traders most likely compounded the volatility in currencies. The European Central Bank and the Bank of England left monetary policy unchanged but Mario Draghi and Mark Carney made it clear that both central banks have a bias to ease. The dovish comments from European central bankers were motivated by the recent volatility in interest rates and a desire to set themselves apart from the Federal Reserve who is on a path to reduce stimulus. The ECB and the BoE wants everyone to know that they are still prepared to increase stimulus if the volatility in the bond markets persist or their economies weaken. In the Eurozone in particular, the EUR/USD dropped through 1.30 and 1.29. The currency started to fall as soon as Draghi said that policy will remains accommodative as long as needed, there are downside risks to their economic outlook and rates will stay low for an extended period of time. The sell-off gained momentum when the central bank took the unprecedented step of forward guidance. The ECB said there is no exit in sight, they are keeping rates low for an extended period of time, their decision will be data dependent and they are keeping an open mind on negative deposit rates. Draghi also reminded everyone that the central bank is "technically ready" for negative rates. They had an extensive discussion about the possibility of a rate cut and unanimously decided that the guidance was needed which included saying that 50bp is not the lower bound. The central bank is screaming their bias to ease from the top of the mountain - they don't want to leave any room for ambiguity because the risk could be a further rise in yields. Having dropped below 1.29, the next support for the EUR/USD should be at 1.28.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: The possibility of an upside price progress is seen above the resistance level at 1.2931 (R1). Evaluation above this mark might initiate bullish pressure and expose medium-term interim targets at 1.2952 (R2) and 1.2974 (R3). Downwards scenario: We placed our support level right above the yesterday low at 1.2881 (S1). Clearance here is required to open way towards to our interim target at 1.2862 (S2) and then final aim locates at 1.2842 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.2931, 1.2952, 1.2974

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Down trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: Nonfarm Payrolls announcement might change overall technical structure. We see potential to overcome our next resistive barrier at 1.5090 (R1). Any prolonged movement above it would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5120 (R2) and 1.5151 (R3). Downwards scenario: Risk of price depreciation is seen below the support level at 1.5024 (S1). A fall below it might prolong medium-term weakness towards to next support at 1.4992 (S2) and any further market decline would then be targeting final support at 1.4959 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.5090, 1.5120, 1.5151
Support Levels: 1.5024, 1.4992, 1.4959

TREND CONDITION : Upward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: Neutral tone dominates on the hourly chart frame. Local high offers an important resistive structure at 100.45 (R1). Any penetration above that level would suggest next targets at 100.68 (R2) and 100.90 (R3). Downwards scenario: Possible downside expansion is limited to the next support level at 100.15 (S1). Break here is required to open way towards to initial targets at 99.92 (S2) and 99.70 (S3).

ECB members had heated clash over last rate decision

ECB Governing Council members had a confrontational approach over interest rates at their latest board meeting on Thursday, according to German weekly Der Spiegel, citing no sources, the MNI newswire reports. Der Spiegel claims to have obtained insights over the dovish views from ECB chief economist Peter Praet, who proposed to cut the benchmark interest rate by 25 bp in the last meeting, an action that ECB President Mario Draghi would have supported.

However, as MNI reports, "seven board members, mainly from northern European member states, were arguing sharply against a rate cut last week, the magazine reported." Der Spiegel reports German Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann, Dutch central bank governor Klaas Knot as well as ECB Executive Board member Joerg Asmussen, as the most notoriously opposed to it. As is well known, the final decision taken by the board was to unanimously keep the benchmark rate unchanged at 0.5% while providing forward guidance on low rates. Draghi's said that "broad-based weakness in the real economy and subdued monetary dynamics" will keep rates at present or lower levels for an extended period of time.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Market players may prefer to stay neutral today during limited tier one macroeconomic data flow, though a break of our resistance at 1.2852 (R1) would suggest next targets at 1.2879 (R2) and 1.2905 (R3). Downwards scenario: Friday low offers a key support barrier at 1.2805 (S1). Only clear break here would be a signal of possible market easing towards to next targets at 1.2781 (S2) and 1.2757 (S3) in potential.

Resistance Levels: 1.2852, 1.2879, 1.2905

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Down trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: Upside risk aversion is seen above the next resistance level at 1.4923 (R1). Appreciation above it might lead would enable corrective phase, targeting resistive measures at 1.4962 (R2) and 1.4999 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: On the other hand, if the pair accelerates on the downside and manage to break our next support level at 1.4853 (S1), it is likely to trigger our next support level at 1.4818 (S2) and 1.4782 (S3) later on today.

Resistance Levels: 1.4923, 1.4962, 1.4999
Support Levels: 1.4853, 1.4818, 1.4782

TREND CONDITION : Upward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish

Upwards scenario: Uptrend evolvement remains in power. Further appreciation above the resistive barrier at 101.53 (R1) is liable to next intraday targets at 101.81 (R2) and 102.09 (R3). Downwards scenario: Possible retracement action might get more stimulus below the support level at 100.87 (S1). Loss here would suggest next intraday target at 100.58 (S2) and any weakening below it would then face final support at 100.28 (S3).

Troika approves next disbursment to Greece

Troika officials struck a deal with Greece this Monday, allowing the debt-laden country to receive its next tranche of funds, totalling The money, totaling 6.8bn euros ($8.7bn). The troika of the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) will be responsible to make the funds available end of the month. Eurozone finance ministers indicated earlier today that 2.5bn euros would come from the eurozone rescue fund and 1.5bn euros, while the European Central Bank will contribute with another 1.5bn euros. It is thought that an additional 500m euros from both the EZ rescue fund and the ECB will be transferred in October. The IMF will add the remaining 1.8bn euros.

The loans are subject to Greece showing a committal approach towards the country's fiscal path, with the Troika demanding further cuts and a faster implementation of its reform programme, one that has brought the country to its knees. Despite so, the Troika continues to underline the slow progress seen so far, as the country continues to struggle through an era of depression.

ECB Monthly Report: Interest rates could be reduced further

The ECB signalized in its July Monthly Report that interest rates could be reduced further, should the price stability outlook warrant it. The recently introduced forward guidance was also included: “The Governing Council expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at present or lower levels for an extended period of time.” There was also some clarification of its time horizon: “The extended period of time over which the Governing Council currently expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at present or lower levels is a flexible horizon which does not pre-specify an end-date but is conditional on the Governing Council’s assessment of the economic fundamentals that determine underlying inflation."

Furthermore, the Council pointed to recent improvements in Eurozone sentiment indicators which suggest a gradual recovery of the economy later this year and in 2014. To support it, the ECB is prepared to maintain the accomodative monetary policy for as long as necessary. The accomodative policy should prop up domestic demand while the recovery in global demand should boost export growth in the area. Additionally, the Governing Council suggested that “the overall improvements in financial markets seen since last summer should work their way through to the real economy, as should the progress made in fiscal consolidation.”

Fitch downgrades France to AA+ from AAA

Fitch Ratings has downgraded France to AA+ from AAA on Friday, keeping a stable outlook on the country's debt. Fitch, which joins S&P and Moody's in removing the country's AAA rating, cited the high level of the French government indebtedness as one of the main reasons of the downgrade. Fitch expects France's general government debt to peak at 96% of GDP in 2014 and decline only gradually over the long term, remaining at 92% in 2017. "The only 'AAA' country with a higher debt ratio is the U.S. (AAA/negative), which has exceptional financing flexibility and debt tolerance afforded by the preeminent global reserve currency status of the U.S. dollar," Fitch said in a statement.

Standard & Poor's has affirmed on Friday Germany's top triple-A sovereign credit rating, with a stable outlook. The rating agency justified its decision saying that “Germany has a highly diversified and competitive economy with a demonstrated ability to absorb large economic and financial shocks.” As far as the outlook on the long-term rating is concerned, S&P's decision to keep it 'stable' reflects their view that: “Germany's public finances and strong external balance sheet will continue to withstand potential financial and economic shocks.”

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: With limited economic data flow today we expect further neutral tone development. However, price strengthening is possible above the next resistance level at 1.3092 (R1). Our interim target holds at 1.3124 (R2) en route to our final aim for today at 1.3157 (R3). Downwards scenario: Current price pattern suggests bearish potential if the pair manages to overcome next support level at 1.3044 (S1). Possible price regress could expose our initial targets at 1.3008 (S2) and 1.2974 (S3) later on today.

Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the next resistance level our technical outlook would be negative. Next on tap is support level at 1.5088 (S1). Penetration below this mark would suggest next targets at 1.5059 (S2) and 1.5028 (S3).

Dovish ECB, soft US retail sales balance each other out. Waiting on Bernanke – again!

Dovish talk from the ECB undermined the Euro before the softer than expected US Retail Sales turned things around, sending the US dollar slightly lower. Markets are likely to be on hold ahead of Bernanke’s testimony to Congress although equities and commodities both looks solid in the short term. A mix of data out of the EU and the US could make it a bit choppy later in the day. Before then, the RBA Minutes will be Asia’s focus.

The Euro has had a choppy but mostly uninteresting session, hanging close to 1.3000 as the northern hemisphere summer doldrums look to be well upon us. Early dovish comments from the ECB’s Hansson, indicating that there is room to cut rates further and that negative interest rates should not be ruled out helped push the Euro lower early in the session, before a bit of a turnaround following the softer than expected US retail Sales, that saw the dollar come under some pressure of its own. Fitch downgraded the EFSF – European Financial Stability Facility- to AA+ from AAA, which, following on from the recent France downgrade, had precisely no effect on the Euro at all.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Next barrier on the upside lie at 1.3092 (R1). Surpassing of this level might enable our initial target at 1.3132 (R2) and any further gains would then be limited to last resistive structure at 1.3171 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, clearance of our support at 1.3049 (S1) is required to determine negative intraday bias and enable lower target at 1.3010 (S2) and then any further market depreciation would suggest final support at 1.2969 (S3).

Possible clearance of our next resistive barrier at 1.5132 (R1) would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5173 (R2) and 1.5216 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: Possible downside expansion is protected by support level at 1.5086 (S1), break here would put bullish oriented traders on hold. Marks at 1.5046 (S2) and 1.5004 (S3) acts as our initial targets today.

Downwards scenario: On the downside our attention is shifted to the immediate support level at 99.62 (S1).

Fed's Bernanke: Asset purchases not 'on a preset course'

According to the prepared text of Chairman Ben Bernanke's speech, to be delivered later today during his Semiannual Monetary Policy Report to the Congress, the pace of the Federal Reserve's bond purchases is not 'on a preset course', as it depends on the current economic and financial situation. The Fed head assured that signs of recovery are visible in the US labor market, but that “the jobs situation is far from satisfactory, as the unemployment rate remains well above its longer-run normal level.” He also pointed out that inflation is still below the Fed's 2% target. That is why “a highly accommodative monetary policy will remain appropriate for the foreseeable future.”

As far as QE is concerned, Bernanke stressed that the decision on when the tapering should begin depends on the Fed's assessment of the US economic outlook. Should economic data improve earlier than forecasted and inflation rise towards the objective, a reduction could be carried out sooner. Otherwise, “the current pace of purchases could be maintained for longer.” According to Rob Carnell from ING: ”This speech neither contradicts nor supports the notion that the taper begins in September. The taper might begin then. But as we have written elsewhere, there are quite good reasons why it may occur somewhat later. Not that it really matters all that much anyway – given that the Fed funds decision is one that will be taken independently from QE.”

Bernanke: Too early to say when tapering will start

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke testified before the Congress for a second day on Thursday. While the introductory statement remained unchanged, investors didn't get new insights from the Q&A session before the Senate Banking Committee. When asked about the time the Fed will scale back its monthly bond-buying programme, he said "it's way too early to make any judgment" as the Fed wants to see sustainable improvement in labor markets. Bernanke also said he has broad support for his policy outlook through the Fed leadership. "We've not changed policy. We are not talking about tightening monetary policy", Bernanke said. He added that none of what the Fed has communicated about winding down its bond purchases implies tighter policy in the foreseeable future. Among other remarks, Bernanke said he doesn't see risks to financial stability from student debt, though he said it could have negative economic consequences in the long-term. "It is not particularly likely to cause any sharp instability of the sort we saw in the last few years", Bernanke said Thursday.

Portugal's president backs coalition government

Portugal president Aníbal Cavaco Silva on Sunday supported the current coalition government, saying they should stay till end of the term, ending weeks of political crisis in the country, which had led international actors to even threaten the country's €78 billion international bailout. "As the national salvation compromise was impossible to achieve, I consider that the best alternative solution is for the present government to remain in its functions, with reinforced guarantees of cohesion and solidity of the coalition, until the end of its term (in 2015)" Mr. Cavaco said. Further headlines were provided by Bloomberg, with Cavaco saying he "laments talks on ‘National salvation’ agreement failed to produce results", and that "agreement will eventually be imposed by reality in future."

Session in the Asia-Pacific to start the week opened with an early move higher in Yen that soon corrected to break even before Tokyo started trading, but then as soon as traders hit the floor the Yen rose again to as high as 99.57 of the USD/JPY pair. The Yen move became in broad USD weakness following Japan PM Abe's upper house win, taking EUR/USD to session highs at 1.3170, AUD/USD to 0.9228, and Cable to 1.5298. Nikkei index opened in the 14750 region but soon eased to break even shy of 14600. Gold and Silver broke higher above key $1300 resistance in case of Gold, while Oil remained above the $108 handle. Local share markets traded mixed with China mainland and Japan in the negative, while Australia and Korea still in the positive.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Apparently market sentiment is positive for the EURUSD as both moving averages are pointing up. Clearance of our resistance at 1.3178 (R1) would clear the way for an upside penetration towards to next visible targets at 1.3201 (R2) and 1.3224 (R3). Downwards scenario: Prolonged movement below the supportive measure at 1.3130 (S1) is required to activate downtrend expansion. Next aim on the way would be mark at 1.3105 (S2) and then final target could be met at 1.3081 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, depreciation below the technically important support level at 1.5246 (S1) might lead to the correction formation on the short-term perspective. Possible targets lies at 1.5213 (S2) and 1.5182 (S3).

Bank of Japan stands ready to inject further stimulus

The Bank of Japan is prepared to provide further easing to the economy should signs fail to emerge about an economic recovery, including an inflation mandate of 2% in the short-run. According to BoJ board member Takehiro Sato, more stimulus is a real possibility if the economy's recovery is threatened, naming a few risks such as slower-than-expected growth in China. "A high degree of uncertainty remains concerning the global economy, and I see risks to the economic outlook as somewhat tilted to the downside," Sato said.

"The BOJ does not exclude the implementation of additional measures and will not hesitate to fine-tune its policies flexibly when unexpected tail risks materialise," Sato added in a speech to business leaders in Fukushima, northeastern Japan. Sato also said the 2% inflation should be seen as a flexible target, subject to change in the 2-year projections, a timeframe which had been repeatedly mentioned by BOJ governor Haruhiko Kuroda in past meetings. "If the inflation rate is projected to stabilise within a certain range, with the median being 2 per cent price growth, the main objective of the bank's policy will have been fulfilled," Sato said. Mr Sato, an economist who joined the BOJ board last year, was nonetheless more optimistic about japan’s economy from a year earlier, saying a recovery was "coming into view", presenting a "window of opportunity" to overcome deflation.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Yesterday high at 1.3217 (R1) limits further uptrend establishment. Break here is required to enable next interim target at 1.3243 (R2) en route towards to final aim for today at 1.3268 (R3). Downwards scenario: Depreciation below the support level at 1.3177 (S1) would suggest next intraday target at 1.3152 (S2) and any further weakening would then be limited to final support level at 1.3126 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.3217, 1.3243, 1.3268
Support Levels: 1.3177, 1.3152, 1.3126

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Up
TREND CONDITION : Up trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: Fractal level at 1.5385 (R1) offers next resistive barrier. Penetration above that mark might trigger upside pressure and expose our next resistive mean at 1.5415 (R2) en route towards to final target for today at 1.5445 (R3). Downwards scenario: Though, possibility of correction is high. Price devaluation below the support at 1.5345 (S1) would initiate bearish pressure. On the way our next interim support at 1.5315 (S2) en route to final target at 1.5285 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.5385, 1.5415, 1.5445
Support Levels: 1.5345, 1.5315, 1.5285

TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: USDJPY remains under the consolidation mode after the initial uptrend formation. Strengthening above the next resistive structure at 99.70 (R1) might activate medium-term bullish pressure and expose our intraday targets at 99.86 (R2) and 100.02 (R3). Downwards scenario: Further downside expansion might face next hurdle at 99.28 (S1). Break here is liable to initiate stronger bearish pressure and validate our immediate targets at 99.13 (S2) and 98.98 (S3) in potential.

Resistance Levels: 99.70, 99.86, 100.02

China sets 7% growth as bottom line, eyes fresh stimulus

Chinese Premier Li Keqiang provided a juicy headline during Tuesday, suggesting the country may have to rethink its 'non-stimulatory' monetary policies should the economic growth fall below 7%, according to local media reports. Mr Li said that 7% is seen as the 'bottom line', and if target not met, there will be other options on the table as the government cannot afford the growth rate to deteriorate further, Xinhua News Agency reported. According to Beijing News, Mr. Li added: "As long as the economic growth rate, employment and other indicators don't slip below our lower limit and inflation doesn't exceed our upper limit we'll focus on restructuring and pushing reforms." As Ambrose Evans-Pritchard from the Telegraph notes: "Mr Li's comments suggest a major shift in policy by Beijing, which has deliberately engineered a slow-down over recent months by squeezing credit. The government has been rattled by upheavals in the interbank market and has begun to heed warnings that the crackdown has gone too far."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Despite the price is tested negative territory today further market strengthening is possible. Clearance of our next resistance level at 1.3230 (R1) would suggest next initial targets at 1.3248 (R2) and 1.3264 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside we put our attention to the next support level at 1.3197 (S1). Loss here is required to push the price towards to our next interim targets at 1.3180 (S2) en route towards to final support at 1.3162 (S3)

Any price action below it would then be targeting support level at 1.5326 (S2) and then final target could be exposed at 1.5305 (S3).

Greece one step away from bailout payment

According to the German finance ministry, Greece has completed 21 out of the 22 measures required by the international lenders in exchange for the next bailout payment. The country still has to implement the “mobility scheme” which involves a transfer or dismissal of 12,500 public workers within a year. The measure is expected to be fulfilled until tomorrow. Ryan Littlestone from ForexLive believes that the Troika will finally approve the next bailout payment for Greece, despite the impediments: “Seeing as they've never backed down from hand over cash to Greece there's little chance of this episode failing.”

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Recent price acceleration on the upside suggests short-term positive bias. Possible penetration above the resistance level at 1.3230 (R1) is liable to open way towards to our initial targets at 1.3248 (R2) and 1.3264 (R3). Downwards scenario: Risk of price depreciation is seen below the support level at 1.3197 (S1). A fall below it might prolong medium-term weakness towards to next support at 1.3180 (S2) and any further market decline would then be targeting final support at 1.3162 (S3).

Upwards scenario: A violation of next resistance at 1.5352 (R1) might call for a run towards to next target at 1.5375 (R2) and any further appreciation would then be limited to final target at 1.5397 (R3). Downwards scenario: Possible downside expansion is limited to the next support level at 1.5324 (S1). Break here is required to open way towards to initial targets at 1.5301 (S2) and 1.5278 (S3).

Upwards scenario: Possible upwards formation is limited to resistive measure at 100.06 (R1). A break above it would suggest next intraday target at 100.18 (R2) and if the price holds its momentum we can expect price increase towards to final resistance at 100.30 (R3). Downwards scenario: In order to prolong downside extension, USDJPY should successfully retest our support level at 99.86 (S1). Below it locates our intraday targets at 99.74 (S2) and 99.62 (S3).

What does Japan CPI rise mean for the BoJ?

In a clear sign of temporary victory by 'Abenomics' radical policies, Japan printed the sharpest rise in core inflation in almost 5 years, with the read out at +0.4% y/y vs 0.3% exp. The rest of indicators were also encouraging. ne of the top priorities by Japan is to end a 15-year deflation cycle, so that the country can start to develop a self-sustaining recovery. In large part, this is the main reason behind the radical ultra-loose monetary policy being currently deployed by the BoJ, which has committed to double the amount the central bank purchases in Japanese government debt. The country will continue to actively assess how these increases in price pressure - still minimal - are having an impact on the mindset of the population, potentially leading to support more credit, spending and rise in salaries. However, as IFR Markets Editor Amanda Tan notes, "a planned sales tax hike in April next year - from 5% to 8% - poses a downside risk to spending & sentiment, particularly if wages don't start to rise."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: EURUSD commenced new step of uptrend formation. Possibility of further market appreciation is seen above the resistance level at 1.3296 (R1). Break here is required to validate next targets at 1.3316 (R2) and 1.3336 (R3). Downwards scenario: Any downside extension is limited now to the next support level at 1.3257 (S1).

Downwards scenario: On the other side, a dip below the initial support level at 98.53 (S1) is liable to trigger protective orders execution and drive market price towards to supportive means at 98.38 (S2) and 98.21 (S3).

Japan's PM Abe rethinks sales tax hike; inflation case strengthens?

Japan's most significant fiscal reform in years, that is, a planned hike from 5% to 8% in sales tax by April 2014, faces the prospects of being delayed or watered down as concerns mount the tax increase may do more harm than good to the delicate economic recovery in the country. According to a report from Reuters earlier on Monday: "PM Abe says he will decide in the autumn whether to proceed with the first part of the two-stage plan after gauging the state of the economic recovery, especially GDP data that is due on Sept 9."

RBA Stevens speech recap: Still some scope to ease after last CPI

Governor of the RBA, Glenn Stevens, is giving his annual speech to The Anika Foundation Luncheon in Sydney, and some explosive comments are now crossing the wires. The topic of the speech is current issues in economic policy. According to RBA's Stevens, long rise in mining investment is now over, saying that coming fall could be "quite big". Stevens said that easing is working to shift investors to taking some more risk, adding that shift in risk taking not yet a serious impediment to further policy easing. Stevens remained dovish on his tone, saying that "still has some scope to ease after inflation data." On the Aussie value, Stevens wouldn't be surprised if it falls further, as "the fall makes economic sense."

Upwards scenario: Medium term bias is clearly negative however we expect resuming of the recovery action if the price manages to overcome key resistive bastion at 98.46 (R1). In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 98.71 (R2) and 98.96 (R3). Downwards scenario: Our next support level locates at 97.99 (S1) mark. Possible penetration below this mark would open way towards to next target at 97.73 (S2) and then final aim lie at 97.47 (S3) price level.

The world awaits the FOMC decision and statements

Today’s interest rate decision will only be accompanied by their official statement regarding their decision. Traders and analysts are hoping for more guidance on the Fed’s plans regarding their bond buying program.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: All supports and resistances remains the same today. Mark at 1.3273 (R1) acts as next resistive barrier on the way if the pair keeps it upside potential. Break here is required to achieve higher targets at 1.3288 (R2) and 1.3304 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: On the other side, depreciation below the support at 1.3247 (S1) might shift short-term tendency to the bearish side and validate our intraday targets at 1.3232 (S2) and 1.3217(S3).

Upwards scenario: Instrument gained momentum on the downside recently, turning short-term bias to the negative side. Though, upwards penetration above the resistance at 1.5252 (R1) might enable bullish forces and expose our initial targets at 1.5267 (R2) and 1.5282 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other side, depreciation below the support barrier at 1.5215 (S1) might provide sufficient space for the recovery action. In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5205 (S2) and then 1.5186 (S3).

Mixed data spur controversies on Chinese PMI data restrictions

Last month, the National Bureau of Statistics restrained industry-specific data upon publication of Purchasing Manufacturing indexes. Under the premise implying not enough resources were available to make such analysis public, the Chinese opted to suspend relevant information indicative of this year’s economic performance. As stated by the vice president of the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing, “We now have 3,000 samples in the survey, and from a technical point of view, time is very limited — there are many industries, you know”. While Chinese provide zero point zone explanations, speculation concerning the reasons behind such measures continues to surge.

Australian services sector falls below 40.00, first time since GFC

Earlier on the session it was learnt that the Australian Performance of Services Index (Australian PSI®) fell deeper into the red, this time by 2.1 points to 39.4 in July, suggesting further contraction in activity. This is the lowest level for the Australian PSI® since March 2009, Ai Group reported, saying that "outside the GFC-related downturn in 2008-09, it is the first time the Australian PSI® has fallen below 40 points."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Neutral hourly studies point towards further consolidation, with a break of next resistive structure at 1.3293 (R1) is required to spark stronger upside action. In such scenario we would suggest our next initial targets 1.3304 (R2) and 1.3316 (R3). Downwards scenario: Risk of market depreciation is seen below the next support level at 1.3263 (S1).

Upwards scenario: Market players may prefer to stay neutral today during limited tier one macroeconomic data flow, though a break of our resistance at 99.15 (R1) would suggest next targets at 99.32 (R2) and 99.49 (R3). Downwards scenario: Further recovery phase is limited now to the next supportive barrier at 98.65 (S1). Only loss here would enable our intraday targets at 98.50 (S2) and 98.34 (S3) on the downside.

AUD/USD rallies initially after RBA, but a lot of resistance looms

The AUD/USD came into the RBA decision very oversold and ready squeeze the bears. Despite the initial pop, technicians say there’s plenty of resistance to conquer before the bulls take control of the macro picture. The initial positive reaction following the RBA’s 25 basis point rate cut appears to be the market weeding out those shorts who were banking on a 50 basis point cut. While nobody knows exactly how much money was being bet against the AUD/USD, but the mercilous selling that led to the extreme oversold readings made it quite apparent that the short-Aussie trade was extremely crowded – and the markets do not treat crowded trades well typically. The good news for bears that were not over-leveraged is that the RBA hinted that they stand at the ready to act further if growth continues to be a problem and inflation remains benign.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Despite the current consolidation pattern, EURUSD remains in uptrend formation on the bigger picture. Clearance of our next resistance level at 1.3272 (R1) would suggest initial targets at 1.3282 (R2) and 1.3292 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside next supportive bastion lies at 1.3250 (S1). Prolonged movement below it might then expose our intraday targets at 1.3241 (S2) and 1.3231 (S3).

Downwards scenario: Failure to establish corrective structure might lead to further downtrend evolvement later on today.

GBP/USD fading after failed test of 1.5435 level; BOE report looms

The GBPUSD runs the risk of cascading lower yet again after it ran up to “correction resistance” and failed. The BOE’s inflation report and Mr. Carney’s appearance before Parliament are sure to create a sharp move. The GBP/USD cross rallied sharply on Dollar weakness following Friday’s jobs report in the US. The bullish tone carried over into Sunday night’s open and continued to stair-step higher until just after Britain’s industrial and manufacturing production numbers were released. Shortly after those numbers came out, the GBP/USD began to sell off – this time in a stair-step pattern in the opposite direction. So far, there is still a chance that the latest bit of selling is just a correction lower leading up to the next thrust higher. But, technicians say that a break below 1.5213 would put out any bullish flame.

Subsequently loss here might create upside momentum and drive market price towards to our initial targets at 1.3358 (R2) and 1.3370 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: On the other hand, depreciation below the technically important support level at 1.3327 (S1) might lead to the correction formation on the short-term perspective. Possible targets lies at 1.3314 (S2) and 1.3302 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.3346, 1.3358, 1.3370

TREND CONDITION : Up trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: After the strong appreciation yesterday we expect to see some consolidation ahead. Though clearance of next resistance level at 1.5531 (R1) might enable bullish pressure and open route towards to our next targets at 1.5557 (R2) and 1.5584 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside, support level at 1.5478 (S1) limits possible retracement expansion. Break here is required to enable lower target at 1.5450 (S2) en route to final aim at 1.5424 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, further downtrend development may encounter supportive measure at 96.30 (S1).

Yen short trade revival subject to Japan's sales tax chatter...

By now, the market completes a full trading day in which investors and traders had the opportunity to digest what to make out of Monday's disappointing Japan Q2 GDP data, but most importantly, what might be the implications on the widely covered topic of the sales tax hike. As reported yesterday, the big miss in the Japanese growth figures, displaying a -1% negative deviation from 3.6% expected to 2.6% preliminary data, is not helping the case to implement a planned 3% aggressive increase on the sales tax. Historically, there are well-founded reasons to fear that the economy may face some undesirable headwinds if being too aggressive on a tax hike. Japanese policy-makers are growing more vocal on softer option to take on, including either a more conservative 1% incremental approach on the sales tax, or even delaying the tax hike by one year after Japan's PM Abe Adviser, Mr. Hamada,was quoted earlier yesterday saying "there is no need to hurry with the sales tax hike after the weaker-than-expected Q2 GDP as it might harm the economy." On the flip side, BoJ Chief Kuroda said last week that it is not necessary a delay in the sales tax hike, saying that “ending deflation and raising the sales tax are achievable at the same time.”

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Price dip lower yesterday and finally stabilized. A violation of next resistance at 1.3313 (R1) might call for a run towards to next target at 1.3327 (R2) and any further appreciation would then be limited to final target at 1.3340 (R3). Downwards scenario: We placed our support level right below the session low at 1.3288 (S1). Clearance here is liable to open way towards to our interim target at 1.3275 (S2) and then might expose final aim at 1.3262 (S3).

Fed’s Lockhart reiterates September reduction in Federal bond buying

In news that will certainly resonate through FX Markets, Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart reported that the Federal Reserve could begin reducing its bond-buying stimulus as early as its September meeting – despite inflation still being below its targeted values. One of the more pressing concerns facing investors and policymakers alike is that the U.S. economic performance is too volatile or unstable for Federal Reserve policymakers to initiate their comprehensive plan for both reducing and eventually halting their asset-purchasing program as early as next month. Ultimately though, Lockhart appeared open or receptive to at least a modest pullback in Federal monetary stimulus from its current pace of $85 billion per month. "I wouldn't rule out September," he stated. "As I see it, a decision to proceed - whether it is in September, October, or December - ought to be thought of as a cautious first step." Indeed, U.S. inflation has been running well below the Fed's 2.0% target for some time – historically very low. However Lockhart noted he did not see any signs that deflation was accelerating, reiterating that the current inflationary backdrop would still be consistent with a modest pullback in quantitative easing.

Above the local high locates our intraday targets at 1.3282 (R2) and 1.3294 (R3). Downwards scenario: Failure to establish positive bias today would shift our focus to the next support level at 1.3246 (S1).

Downwards scenario: Any downside extension is limited now to the next support level at 1.5425 (S1).

EUR/USD rips vertically on a 10-minute chart; still vulnerable macro set-up

The EUR/USD just ripped straight higher for over 400 pips on non-news related buying. Still, any upside is corrective in nature unless 1.3414 is conquered say technicians. EUR/USD will likely be trading off of US data Thursday Despite the rip higher that just occurred on the intraday chart, the macro picture appears to be setting up for much more downside once this upside correction runs its course. The European markets are closed for the most part Thursday in honor of Ascension Day.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Neutral channel formation remains in play on the hourly chart. Our next resistance level is placed above the local peak at 1.3310 (R1).

Obama seeks Congressional approval before launching attack against Syria

U.S. President Barack Obama has delayed a military strike against Syria by requesting authorization first from an incredulous Congress, a decision that may take no less than 10 days to be given. As Obama said, in a hastily organized appearance in the Rose Garden, "I’m prepared to give that order, but having made my decision as commander in chief based on what I am convinced is our national security interests, I’m also mindful that I’m the president of the world’s oldest constitutional democracy.” According to John Boehner, the Republican speaker of the House of Representatives, “we expect the House to consider a measure the week of September 9.″

RBA keeps rate at 2.5%, easing bias removal?

The Reserve Bank of Australia left rates unchanged at 2.5% record lows, with the Monetary Policy Statement offering some interesting clues, saying "the Board will continue to assess the outlook and adjust policy as needed", omitting a more aggressive narrative seen in last few months. While the door to reduce rates further is not closed, the statement sounds not as dovish as one may have expected, yet the value of the Australian Dollar and domestic indicators will continue to determine the future rate setting. For now, looks like AUD bulls will gain Sept battle.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Possibility of retracement formation is seen above the yesterday high -1.3227 (R1). Break here is required to clear the way towards to higher targets at 1.3248 (R2) and 1.3269 (R3). Downwards scenario: We placed our support level right below the local low at 1.3173 (S1). Clearance here is liable to open way towards to our interim target at 1.3152 (S2) and then might expose final aim at 1.3130 (S3).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Price dip lower yesterday and finally stabilized near its local low. A violation of next resistance at 1.3194 (R1) might call for a run towards to next target at 1.3215 (R2) and any further appreciation would then be limited to final target at 1.3235 (R3). Downwards scenario: Fresh low formed today offers an important resistive measure at 1.3138 (S1). Break here is required to drive market price towards to next visible targets at 1.3117 (S2) and 1.3097 (S3) later on today.

Resistance Levels: 1.3194, 1.3215, 1.3235

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Neutral
TREND CONDITION : Sideway
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: Neutral tone remains favored on the hourly chart frame, however possible extension above the resistive measure at 1.5582 (R1) would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5597 (R2) and 1.5611 (R3). Downwards scenario: An evidence of possible descending structure could be provided if the pair manages to surpass key support level at 1.5543 (S1). In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5529 (S2) and 1.5514 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.5582, 1.5597, 1.5611
Support Levels: 1.5543, 1.5529, 1.5514

TREND CONDITION : Up trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: Market remains relatively stable above the moving averages. Clearance of next resistance level at 99.88 (R1) might initiates bullish pressure and expose our intraday targets at 100.15 (R2) and 100.41 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: Any downside extension is limited now to the next support level at 99.40 (S1). Below here we see potential for the price acceleration towards to next targets at 99.14 (S2) and 98.89 (S3).

ECB's Draghi reiterates forward guidance on rates

At the press conference following the ECB Governing Council's decision to keep interest rates unchanged at 0.5% in September, president Mario Draghi reiterated that key interest rates would remain at the current or lower levels for an extended period of time.He stressed that economic activity in the Eurozone is improving, as confidence indicators show, and that the ECB is ready to support the recovery with its accommodative monetary policy. Current geopolitical tensions are one of the main threats to the recovery, he said. Inflation in the Eurozone is low and should remain at this level in the coming months. Upside risks on inflation are connected with higher indirect taxes and commodity prices, while downside risks stem from weaker growth. The ECB has risen its Eurozone 2013 growth forecast to -0.4% from -0.6% and lowered the projection for 2014 to 1% from 1.1%. As far as inflation is concerned, the forecast for 2013 was hiked to 1.5% from 1.4% this year and left unchanged at 1.3% for 2014. Mario Draghi also stressed the importance of setting up the banking union quickly, as "weak loan dynamics continue to reflect the current state of the business cycle."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: On the upside, fractals level at 1.3156 (R1) offers an important resistive structure. Any penetration above that level would suggest next intraday targets at 1.3179 (R2) and 1.3202 (R3). Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the 20 SMA our technical outlook would be negative. Extension lower the key support level at 1.3110 (S1) is being able to drive market price towards to our next targets at 1.3087 (S2) and 1.3065 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, new phase of retracement formation might commence below the important support level at 1.5572 (S1).

EUR/USD higher in early Europe after rising on Friday but still gets no love from ECB

The EUR/USD opened higher the week after having dropped for a second week in a row. Elaborating on, the single currency managed to have a “green” day on Friday due to dismal NFP data, but still closed the week lower against the greenback for a second consecutive week, partly on Draghi’s more than expected dovish stance. ECB Draghi seems to remain very cautious about the Euro zone return to growth and not much enthusiastic about recovery in the Euro land. On the opposite side, despite the dismal NFP, the consensus in the market is for the Fed to announce the commencement of gradual tapering in the meeting of 17th and 18th of September. Traders should bear into consideration the Sentix Investor Confidence which will be released at 8.30 GMT hours and a further improvement in sentiment is anticipated.

As long as the view for tapering remains “on”, any potential EUR/USD rallies will be well capped. Despite the great disappointment on Friday’s NFP release, hints from the Fed points to tapering, even in a small gradual scale such as of $15bililion/$20 billion per month. What’s more, the power-horse of Europe as well depicted in the industrial figures released last week, isn’t strong enough. There are political problems in coalition forces in Italy, a third bailout package in Greece seems inevitable and there is also political uncertainty in Cyprus.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Further positive bias development would face next resistive measure at 1.3190 (R1). If the price manages to overcome it we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.3212 (R2) and 1.3234 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, our bearish expectations remain intact below the key support level at 1.3155 (S1). Price penetration below it would allow further declines towards to lower targets at 1.3134 (S2) and 1.3112 (S3).

Downwards scenario: Medium-term bias remains sideways orientated. A dip lower the key support measure at 1.5613 (S1) would open a route towards to lower targets at 1.5596 (S2) and 1.5579 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the downside bearish pressure might push the price below the support at 99.29 (S1).

EUR/USD up around 1.3270 on China

The shared currency is extending its ascent on Tuesday, lifting the EUR/USD to the area of 1.3270 on upbeat tone from the Chinese economy.China continues to be the main driver for the risk appetite trends in the first half of the week, after Industrial Production, Retail Sales and Urban Investment figures all surpassed expectations during August, giving extra oxygen to the risk-associated assets in general. In the opinion of Westpac Global Strategy Group, “The 55, 100 and 200 day moving averages have converged in the 1.3140-90 range, with the runup to 1.34 an increasingly distant memory. ECB president Draghi’s mood last week was gloomier than expected, adding to our bias to sell into the 1.32-1.33 region. However, US data has been too soft to inspire much fresh USD buying, leaving 1.3100 intact for now”.

At the moment the pair is gaining 0.09% at 1.3268 with the next resistance at 1.3279 (Kijun Line) ahead of 1.3298 (low Aug.22) and then 1.3322 (low Aug.27). On the downside, a break below 1.3157 (low Sep.9) would target 1.3104 (50% of 1.2755-1.3453) en route to 1.3089 (low Jul.19).

Downwards scenario: Clearance of our support at 1.3248 (S1) is required to determine negative intraday bias and enable lower target at 1.3230 (S2) and then any further market depreciation would suggest final target at 1.3213 (S3).

Obama puts Syrian action on hold while diplomacy pursued

President Obama addressed the American people on the Syrian conflict, and where the U.S. goes from here, after headlines for a diplomatic resolution inundated media outlets on Tuesday. Barack Obama started the speech with a strong case for a ‘yes’ vote in Congress, saying "We know Asssad's government was responsible" Iran would be emboldened.... "This is not a world we should accept'' , although making clear that the U.S. "will not put American boots on the ground in Syria."

As the speech progressed, a more conciliatory Obama emerged, saying that after the Russian proposal to place under international control Syria's alleged chemical weapons - which Assad's government agreed to -, he asked Congress to postpone a vote on Syria action while diplomacy is pursued, adding that Assa's initiative has the potential to remove weapons without use of force. Obama also said: "Over the last few days we’ve seen some encouraging signs, in part because of the threat of military action." Since Obama was specific about the slim chances of an immediate attack, the speech supports the recent bid on risk assets.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Possible upwards extension above the resistance level at 1.3266 (R1) is liable to commence medium-term bullish structure. Important fractal levels offers next targets at 1.3282 (R2) and 1.3298 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the moving averages our short-term outlook would be negative. Possible extension lower the 1.3240 (S1) is being able to drive market price towards to initial supports at 1.3226 (S2) and 1.3211 (S3).

Upwards scenario: GBPUSD is approaching our key resistive measure at 1.5744 (R1). If the price manages to overcome it we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5767 (R2) and 1.5789 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside, currency pair might encounter supportive measures at 1.5711 (S1). Break here would open the way for a test of our next targets at 1.5689 (S2) and 1.5666 (S3) later on today.

Barroso calls for quick implementation of Eurozone banking union

Europe is on a road to recovery, but efforts must still be made to prop it up, president of the European Commission José Manuel Barroso said on Wednesday, delivering the annual State of the Union speech. He listed unemployment as the the most burning issue to solve, as its current level is “economically unsustainable, politically untenable and socially unacceptable.” Speaking at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, Barroso pointed to the recent improvements in the European financial markets as well as the better situation in Greece. “For Europe, recovery is within sight. Let's not overestimate the progress, but neither should we underestimate what has been done,” he said.

He called for a quicker implementation of the Eurozone banking union, which would help boost growth and employment. Finalizing discussions on the next EU budget was also listed as a top priority. Furthermore, Barroso stressed the need for a tighter political union, suggesting that “Europe must focus on where it can add most value. It needs to be big on big things and smaller on smaller things.” The European Commission president also referred to the chemical attack in Syria, which the EU condemns but still hopes to see the a conflict resolved through a negotiated settlement.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: On the upside potential is seen for a break above the resistance at 1.3325 (R1). In such case we would suggest next target at 1.3339 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistance at 1.3354 (R3). Downwards scenario: Instrument looks overbought and we expect to see some consolidation pattern ahead. Risk of possible price regress is seen below the support level at 1.3299 (S1). Break here would suggest lower targets at 1.3283 (S2) and 1.3268 (S3) in potential.

Downwards scenario: Medium term bias is clearly positive however we expect recovery action if the price manages to overcome key supportive bastion at 1.5800 (S1). In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5775 (S2) and 1.5748 (S3).

Upwards scenario: USDJPY tested negative territory today though appreciation above the resistive structure at 99.69 (R1) might shift short-term tendency to the bullish side and validate our intraday targets at 99.88 (R2) and 100.08 (R3). Downwards scenario: Failure to establish corrective structure might lead to further downtrend evolvement later on today. Penetration below the support at 99.33 (S1) would suggest next intraday targets at 99.14 (S2) and 98.96 (S3) in perspective.

Countdown for QE taper fireworks is on!

The judgment day for the Fed, Sept 17, is nearing, and the market is preparing accordingly for what may represent the most important monetary policy decision taken in years, as the start of QE taper gets kick-started. Even if the next FOMC meeting comes on the back of a rather disappointing NFP past Friday, the communication strategy carried out by Chairman Ben Bernanke & Co. so far suggest that some sort of light taper should be expected, or else the sell-off in the USD might be one that make headlines all over the world. According to Adam Button, Editor at Forexlive, "The market has settled on $10 billion as the most-likely size for the Fed’s taper next week", anticipating that "larger and the dollar will rally hard, smaller and it will fall."

Meanwhile, Treasury traders seem to be perceive the taper being priced in less than 10bln, which makes a bullish case for a stronger USD for those supporting odds for a more aggressive taper. If this scenario happens to be true, some long USD plays vs other G10 currencies such as the NZD, EUR or even the CAD, might be a great play based on this assumption. As Button notes: "I think it’s clear that a taper is coming but the Fed could still change its mind on the size and the messages that accompany it. Two reports in the days ahead could change their thinking: retail sales on Friday and the CPI on Monday."

Downwards scenario: Further downside extension might face next supportive barrier at 1.3256 (S1). Clearance here is required to open the way towards to interim target at 1.3240 (S2) and any further price regress would then be targeting 1.3225 (S3).

Downwards scenario: In terms of technical levels, risk of price depreciation is seen below the support level at 1.5775 (S1).

US and Russia outline diplomatic framework on Syria

Asian markets reacted positively at the open, cheering up what is perceived as a headline likely to fuel risk-on appetite, as news hit the wires on a political U.S. / Russia deal for the Syrian crisis over the weekend. Despite the easing in geopolitical tensions, there are still claims from both sides of the political spectrum in the U.S. implying the deal with Russia is a defeat by the US administration. In an interview with ABC over the weekend, Obama said limited military action should not be rule out just yet, should the Assad regime not comply to disarm its chemical arsenal. In a joint news conference between US Secretary of State John Kerry and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, a framework document for Syria to surrender its chemical stockpiles was outlined, with Kerry calling Assad to live up to its commitments.

The Fed to maintain forward guidance with firm tone, says Hilsenrath

The Federal Reserve is struggling to justify extending forward guidance as part of its strategy to maintain the recovery path according to Fedwatcher Jon Hilsenrath in his latest article on the FOMC policy meeting. The FOMC is expected to publish its interest rate and monetary policy decision on Wednesday September 18 and market is widely expecting the Fed to start its cut in the bond buying program. The Fedwatcher affirmed in his piece that "Federal Reserve officials face a communication challenge explaining their interest-rate plans when they gather for a policy meeting this week."

Their challenge is "how to justify the low interest-rate plan when their own estimates suggest an economy regaining its health." According to Hilsenrath, Fed forecasts could show "rates rising but still low" by 2016. The Fed also expects economy at "full employment" by the same year. The decision on QE tapering the $85 billion-a-month bond-buying program is now a close call "on whether to start pulling back on the QE." The Fed is now changing its emphasis from bond buying to the "low-rate pledge."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Current price setup is looking for upwards extension possibility. Risk of the price acceleration is seen above the key resistance level at 1.3361 (R1).

Possible penetration below it might initiate bearish pressure and gradually push the price towards to our intraday targets at 1.3298 (S2) and 1.3275 (S3).

Downwards scenario: Though, we still keep the bearish scenario in focus. Risk of market decline is seen below the key support level at 1.5888 (S1).

All eyes on the Fed as investors weigh September taper odds

As the September Fed monetary policy meeting is drawing near, the debate on the FOMC's possible decision to start scaling back the asset purchase program is becoming more and more heated. Recent developments, such as the disappointing August NFP numbers, as well as the ongoing Syrian conflict, have shaken economists' confidence as to whether the QE taper will really be initiated next week. “With a job market 'far from satisfactory' and a promise to adjust monetary policy depending on economic conditions, it would not be a surprise if the Fed postpones the reduction of monthly asset purchases until the next meeting in late October,” Ilian Yotov suggests. Alexandra Estiot also doesn't expect the Fed to make the move at the upcoming meeting, reasoning that “the likeliness of inflation pressures showing up is close to zero,” which means “the cost, in terms of inflation, of ending QE3 too late is nil, while the benefits, even if very difficult to clearly assess, are positive.” Despite the doubts about whether the Fed will start reducing QE in September, all of the economists agree with Steve Ruffley that the FOMC “are planning to taper by the end of the year and nothing will change this.”

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: EURUSD trapped to the consolidation mode on the hourly chart frame after the initial uptrend formation. Next resistive barrier is seen at 1.3384 (R1), break here is required to enable next attractive points at 1.3405 (R2) and 1.3427 (R3). Downwards scenario: Yesterday low offers a key supportive measure at 1.3324 (S1). A violation here is liable to commence correction pattern on the bigger picture and expose our initial targets at 1.3301 (S2) and 1.3275 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, depreciation below the support level at 1.5885 (S1) would suggest next intraday target at 1.5851 (S2) and any further weakening would then be limited to final support level at 1.5816 (S3).

The Fed decides to maintain the status quo; No taper

The Federal Reserve has decided to maintain its interest rate unchanged at 0.25%. Same story with the bond buying pace at $85Bn as officials need more information that the economy is growing at a sustainable pace. According to a recent press release, the Fed affirms that the pace of bond purchases depends on the economic outlook. The inflation is still low, financial market conditions are tight while the fiscal retrenchment could be damaging, so the FOMC needs more signs of progress.

"Accordingly, the Committee decided to continue purchasing additional agency mortgage-backed securities at a pace of $40 billion per month and longer-term Treasury securities at a pace of $45 billion per month." The Fed has lowered its growth expectations and now officials forecast the US GDP to slowdown in 2016 to 2.5%-3.3% range, from 3.0%-3.5% in 2014. They see 2013 to show a 2.0%-2.3% growth in the United States. The unemployment rate is expected to finish the year around 7.2%-7.3% and to decline to 6.5%-6.8% in 2014, 5.8%-6.2% in 2015 and 5.4%-5.9% in 2016.

Asset purchase schemes remaining static.

As the tide went out on the shock decision by the FOMC regarding their asset purchase schemes remaining static, the markets in the USA appeared to pause for thought in Thursday's trading sessions. Looking at high impact news events the improved unemployment data was discounted given the fact that two states, including California, failed to proved jobs data as their computer systems were still off grid. Better news came in the form of house sales reaching a recent high, whilst the Philly Fed number came in off the scale in terms of positivity. The improved housing market news was added to by costs for U.S. home buyers predicted to fall from the highest level in two years after the Federal Reserve increased expectations that it will keep short-term interest rates at about zero percent. Rates on 30-year mortgages reached 4.93 percent in the week ended Sept 6th, the highest level seen since April 2011 and up from a record low of 3.57 percent in December, according to Mortgage Bankers Association data. The rate declined to 4.86 percent last week. Treasuries dropped the day after experiencing the biggest rally in two years as improved economic conditions made investors more certain that the Federal Reserve’s next move will be to reduce monetary stimulus. The 10-year yield rose six basis points or 0.06 percentage point to 2.75 percent late in the New York session. The price of the 2.5 percent note maturing in August 2023 dropped 17/32, or, $5.31 per $1,000 face value, to 97 26/32. The yield slid 16 basis points on Wednesday, the biggest decline since Oct 31st 2011.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Next hurdle that limit uptrend development lies at 1.3569 (R1). If the break occurs here we would suggest next attractive point at 1.3598 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistance at 1.3628 (R3). Downwards scenario: We placed our support level right below the local low at 1.3507 (S1). Clearance here is liable to open way towards to our interim target at 1.3474 (S2) and then might expose final aim at 1.3440 (S3).

Possible penetration below this mark would open way towards to next target at 1.5978 (S2) and then any further market decline would be limited to last mark at 1.5933 (S3).

Clearance here is required to enable our interim target at 99.85 (R2) en route to final aim at 100.06 (R3). Downwards scenario: Penetration below the support level at 99.10 (S1) might maintain a negative tone in near term perspective. In such case we would suggest next supportive measures at 98.87 (S2) and 98.64 (S3) as possible retracement targets.

Merkel wins German election, arduous coalition talks ahead...

Asian traders bought up the Euro through interbank trading, following early evidence of what later was confirmed as the best result for Merkel's conservative party in a general election since 1990, with the Chancellor receiving around 42% of all votes to keep her post as one of the most powerful women on the globe for a third term. Despite the early enthusiasm, the excitement faded pretty quick, with traders deciding to be sidelined as Merkel still faces a tough road ahead, now having to engage on coalition negotiation to form a government - a process which may take weeks if not months - after Mekel's CDU fell very short from claiming an absolute majority.

As the quiet Asian session advanced, and with the Tokyo market closed due to public holidays, the only relevant headline to outline was the Chinese HSBC PMI, which came at a 6-month high, supporting the Australian Dollar across the board. On the commodity arena, metals were hammered yet again, following Fed's Bullard comments on Friday, which triggered the 'taper trade' again, after saying that the October FOMC meeting was still 'live' in terms of tapering.-FXstreet.com

A tale of three central banks

Two European central bank presidents spoke on Monday concerning their overall relative responsibilities. European Central Bank President Mario Draghi said he’s prepared to release another long-term refinancing operation in order to provide funds to Europe’s banking system if and when needed. Unlike previous times after Mr Draghi has held court, the market reaction this time was muted. The Swiss franc is still highly valued and the central bank’s currency ceiling remains essential for safeguarding the economy, according to Swiss National Bank President Thomas Jordan in his statement on Monday. Therefore the loose peg, in relation to the value of the Swiss franc versus the euro, at circa 120, will remain in force until conditions change. The U.S. currency fell versus the majority of its sixteen major peers as a consequence of the Bank of Atlanta President Dennis Lockhart and others stating that Fed policy should focus on creating a more dynamic economy. Lockhart has continually backed the Fed’s $85 billion in monthly bond purchases that were retained last week.

Aussie, kiwi heavy; Tokyo stained with red

Asian traders were rather inactive at the early going of Tokyo, with some Yen strength the main theme, yet as the session advanced, Aussie weakness also became dominant. In the US, following an uncertain and uneven Wall Street session after Fed’s comments on indefinite timing for bond-buying program, Asia registered mixed results in equity indexes with the Nikkei down 0.39%, pushing the yen higher. In New Zealand, the trade deficit expanded from $-771M to $-1191M beating estimates, for the worse, at $-743M. In Australia, the RBA said the banking system is liquid and in good shape and added the housing market data is strong and yet the Aussie remained heavy with slow progress upward.

Japan prepared for the tankan results next week and market participants remain on their feet to any governmental decision to increase the sales taxes as Prime Minister Abe announce a potential increase based on tankan results despite the Spring 2014 plans to proceed with the monetary policies. In the futures contracts realm, all metals printed gains with notably copper advancing on positive Chinese consumer data along with gold registering gains worth 0.66% for the first time in the week to reach $1,325.00.

Upwards scenario: A violation of next resistance at 1.6021 (R1) might call for a run towards to next target at 1.6060 (R2) and any further appreciation would then be limited to final target at 1.6097 (R3). Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the 20 SMA our technical outlook would be negative. Extension lower the key support level at 1.5954 (S1) is being able to drive market price towards to our next targets at 1.5912 (S2) and 1.5870 (S3).

Upwards scenario: Neutral tone remains favored on the hourly chart frame, however possible extension above the resistive measure at 98.92 (R1) would suggest next intraday targets at 99.07 (R2) and 99.21 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, new phase of downtrend formation might commence below the important support level at 98.56 (S1). Break here is required to validate our targets at 98.41 (S2) and 98.26 (S3) later on today.

Resistance Levels: 98.92, 99.07, 99.21

SPX drop longest since 'fiscal cliff' debacle of December 2012

The SPX has dropped over 1.9 percent during the past five trading days as investors remain cautious as to whether or not the pending government shutdown will eventually harm USA economic growth. The current fall is now the longest witnessed on the index since Dec 28th 2012, when USA lawmakers clashed over the impending automatic spending cuts and tax increases known as the "fiscal cliff". Sterling advanced 0.4 percent to $1.6070 late in the London session after rising to $1.6163 on Sept 18th, which was the highest level seen since Jan 11th. The U.K. currency was little changed at 84.22 pence per euro after appreciating to 83.53 pence on Sept 18th, the strongest level seen since Jan 17th. Sterling strengthened towards its eight-month high versus the dollar after a gauge of U.K. retail sales from the UK's CBI increased in September, adding to signs the U.K. economy is improving, slowly. Sterling rose versus all of its 16 major counterparts before a report today that analysts believe will confirm that the U.K. economy expanded last quarter by the estimated 0.7%. The pound has in fact been the best performer during the past six months, appreciating 5.8 percent versus the dollar.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: An element of resistive measures could be found at 1.3538 (R1). Clearance here would suggest further uptrend development towards to our interim target at 1.3562 (R2). Final aim locates today at 1.3584 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other side, depreciation below the support barrier at 1.3507 (S1) might provide sufficient space for the recovery action. In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.3483 (S2) and then 1.3459 (S3).

Upwards scenario: On the upside, fractals level at 1.6090 (R1) offers an important resistive structure. Any penetration above that level would suggest next intraday targets at 1.6114 (R2) and 1.6137 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, our bearish expectations remain intact below the key support level at 1.6055 (S1). Price penetration below it would allow further declines towards to lower targets at 1.6031 (S2) and 1.6006 (S3).

Upwards scenario: Market remains relatively stable above the moving averages. Clearance of next resistance level at 99.11 (R1) might initiates bullish pressure and expose our intraday targets at 99.26 (R2) and 99.42 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: Clearance of our support at 98.68 (S1) is required to determine negative intraday bias and enable lower target at 98.51 (S2) and then any further market depreciation would suggest final aim at 98.34 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 99.11, 99.26, 99.42

USA Congress still at odds over debt ceiling

Despite the hope that the USA will eventually agree a new debt ceiling, U.S. Congress has failed to pass the necessary budget, Republicans and Democrats continue to disagree over whether to stop funding the 2010 health-care initiative known as Obamacare, thereby threatening a a government shutdown by Oct 1st. Equities rose in Thursday's trading sessions, with the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index rising by 0.4 percent to 1,698.67 at the close in the New York session. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note also climbed two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 2.65 percent. Other data sets published on Thursday may have confirmed that the USA economy improved in the second quarter of 2013, however, positive GDP numbers were countered by fewer Americans signing contracts to buy previously owned homes in August. USA GDP rose at a 2.48% percent annual rate, unrevised from the previous estimate, after expanding 1.1 percent in the first quarter, the USA Commerce Department reported. The index of pending home sales fell 1.6 percent, the recent rise in mortgage rates slowing momentum in the housing market, according to figures from the National Association of Realtors.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Resistance level at 1.3504 (R1) acts as reference point for further market strengthening. Break here is required to enable next interim target at 1.3523 (R2) en route towards to final aim for today at 1.3542 (R3). Downwards scenario: Next challenge on the downside is seen at 1.3472 (S1). Breakthrough of this mark would open way for a downside expansion and could possibly trigger our initial targets at 1.3452 (S2) and 1.3435 (R3) later on today.

Break here is required to stimulate bullish forces to expose initial targets at 1.6170 (R2) and 1.6206 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: We do expect some pull-backs development on the downside below the support level at 1.6030 (S1). Short-term momentum on the negative side might open the way towards to immediate supports at 1.6000 (S2) and 1.5964 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, our next support level aligns at 98.56 (S1) and possible price regress below it might encounter downside rally. In such scenario we would suggest next intraday targets to be placed at 98.25 (S2) and 97.97 (S3).

Equity index futures fall sharply, USA Government shutdown approaches as lawmakers fail to broker agreement

Concerns that the budget stalemate, at the heart of the USA government, will affect economic growth caused the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index to experience its first weekly drop since August. The index dropped 1.1 percent last week. The rate on 10-year Treasury notes fell three basis points to 2.62 percent. Equity index futures took a substantial hit immediately the market opened Sunday evening; the DJIA down 0.72% - with the critical level of 15,000 back on the radar. The SPX was down 0.79%. European equity index futures also took an immediate hit, with UK FTSE down 0.77% and the MIB down 1.25%. The dollar and the euro fell sharply in early trade on Sunday evening, the greenback falling by 0.5% versus yen. Being perceived as a safe haven yen also rose versus the euro, loonie, Aussie, sterling and the Swiss franc amongst the major peers. In a USA government shutdown, essential operations with dedicated funding would continue. A shutdown could reduce fourth-quarter economic growth by as much as 1.4 percentage points according to economists. The biggest effect would come from the output lost from temporarily laid off workers.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Price comfortably ranging on the hourly chart, however we see potential to overcome our next resistive barrier at 1.3512 (R1) later on today.

Downwards scenario: On the downside our attention is shifted to the immediate support level at 1.3471 (S1).

Downwards scenario: Risk of market weakening is seen below the support level at 1.6139 (S1).

The US government shutdown - truth or dare

Early in the overnight/early morning session we'll have received the RBA decision regarding the base rate for Australia, this will be accompanied by a statement concerning the decision, which is expected to keep the current rate at 2.5%. The U.S. government looks set for its first partial shutdown in over 17 years, with no signs of compromise from the Congress or the White House. The U.S. has had 17 funding gaps from 1977 to 1996. In 1995 and 1996, interruptions lasted from Nov 14th to Nov 19th and from Dec 16th to Jan 6th, as Republicans led by House Speaker Newt Gingrich clashed with President Bill Clinton. Equity index futures are down on the USA equity markets, the DJIA equity index future is down 0.98 at the time of writing, leaving the index at 15046, very close to the critical 15,000 level. SPX equity index future is down 0.62%. European equity index futures are mainly in the red, STOXX down 0.9%, FTSE down 0.79% and the DAX down 0.87%. The U.S. Dollar Index, tracking the performance of a basket of the 10 leading global currencies versus the dollar, fell for a second trading-day, declining by 0.1 percent to 1,011.85 late in the New York session, after weakening by as much as 0.2 percent. The yen was little changed at 98.30 per dollar after touching 97.50, the strongest level since Aug 29th. Japan’s currency fell 0.1 percent to 132.93 versus the euro after appreciating to 131.38, the strongest level witnessed since Sept 9th. The euro was little changed at $1.3527.

Ben Bernanke may delay taper if shut down impasse continues

The Swiss franc appears to have become the safe haven currency of choice during the USA partial govt. shutdown. The Swiss franc rose to its highest level versus the dollar in nineteen months as a partial shutdown of the U.S. government increased demand for Switzerland’s currency as a safe haven currency. The franc is typically sought by investors seeking safety at times of heightened global stress and it climbed versus all but two of its 16 major currency peers during Tuesday's trading sessions. Versus the USD it strengthened through 90 cents per dollar for the first time since Feb. 29, 2012. The Swiss currency rose 0.3 percent to 90.23 centimes per dollar at 10:50 a.m. in Zurich, after rising to as much as 89.93 centimes. Versus the euro it was little changed at 1.2225. The dollar traded at close to its lowest level seen since February as the partial shutdown of the U.S. government increased speculation that the Federal Reserve will persevere with its asset purchases, therefore weakening the currency. The U.S. currency was little changed at $1.3526 per euro after depreciating to $1.3588, the weakest level seen since Feb 6th. The yen gained by 0.3 percent to 98 per dollar and climbed 0.3 percent to 132.55 per euro.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Fractals level at 1.3536 (R1) offers a key resistive measure on the upside. Break here is required to enable bullish pressure and validate next target at 1.3551 (R2). Final support for today locates at 1.3566 (R3). Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the next resistance level our technical outlook would be negative. Next on tap is support level at 1.3506 (S1). Penetration below this mark would suggest next targets at 1.3491 (S2) and 1.3475 (S3).

Upwards scenario: Possible upwards extension above the resistance level at 1.6210 (R1) is liable to commence medium-term bullish structure. Important fractal levels offers next targets at 1.6238 (R2) and 1.6265 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: Risk of further correction expansion is seen below the support barrier at 1.6158 (S1). Break here is required to enable our intraday targets at 1.6130 (S2) and 1.6103 (S3) on the downside.

Resistance Levels: 1.6210, 1.6238, 1.6265
Support Levels: 1.6158, 1.6130, 1.6103

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: Fresh portion of the economic data releases might increase volatility later on today. Clearance of our next resistive barrier at 98.09 (R1) is required to push the price towards to our next visible targets at 98.33 (R2) and 98.56 (R3). Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the moving averages our short-term outlook would be negative. Possible extension lower the 97.50 (S1) is being able to drive market price towards to initial supports at 97.25 (S2) and 97.01 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 98.09, 98.33, 98.56

US interest rates could skyrocket

Due to the govt. shutdown there will be no NFP number printed by the BLS on Friday. Two FOMC members hold court in the afternoon session, once again, despite the turmoil in govt. due to the shutdown, investors will be looking for clues with regards to potential tapering of the Fed's $85 billion per month asset purchase scheme. The US Treasury warned on Thursday that the budget impasse between the Republicans and Democrats in Washington risked plunging the world's biggest economy into its worst slump since the Great Depression; "A default would be unprecedented and has the potential to be catastrophic. Credit markets could freeze, the value of the dollar could plummet, US interest rates could skyrocket, the negative spillovers could reverberate around the world, and there might be a financial crisis and recession that could echo the events of 2008 or worse."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: On the upside EURUSD is limited to the next resistive barrier at 1.3646 (R1). If the price manages to surpass this mark we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.3668 (R2) and 1.3690 (R3). Downwards scenario: Our next support level is placed at important technical level- 1.3607 (S1). Clearance here might stimulate bearish market participants to drive market price towards to our initial targets at 1.3584 (S2) and 1.3561 (S3) in potential.

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: On the upside potential is seen for a break above the resistance at 1.6187 (R1). In such case we would suggest next target at 1.6215 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistance at 1.6241 (R3). Downwards scenario: Medium term bias is clearly positive however we expect recovery action if the price manages to overcome key supportive bastion at 1.6150 (S1). In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.6125 (S2) and 1.6099 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.6187, 1.6215, 1.6241

Break here is required to achieve higher targets at 97.80 (R2) and 98.10 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: In terms of technical levels, risk of price depreciation is seen below the support level at 96.92 (S1).

Yen rises versus major peers early in the Asian session

There were no significant breaks or gaps to the upside or downside as the FX markets opened on Sunday evening. Yen made a modest rise versus the majority of its peers, but at the time of writing had failed to penetrate the significant resistance or support levels. The dollar fell for a fifth week last week, the longest stretch the greenback has experienced such a fall since April 2011, due to Congress failing to agree on a route forward to raise the $16.7 trillion U.S. debt limit, encouraging investors to seek other safe haven assets. The U.S. Dollar Index, tracking the greenback versus its 10 major peer currencies, declined by 0.3 percent last week, (the most in two weeks), to 1,009.98 in New York at the close on Friday. The dollar fell 0.8 percent to 97.48 yen, the third weekly drop. It touched 96.93, the lowest since Aug. 28th. The U.S. currency weakened by 0.3 percent to $1.3558 per euro. The yen strengthened 0.5 percent to 132.14 per euro. Sterling fell by the most last week in the dollar’s 16 most-traded peers, after reaching a nine-month high, the sell off was due to speculation that the U.K. economic recovery isn’t strong enough to warrant the early interest-rate increase the BoE governor Mark Carney had mentioned in earlier press conferences.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Next barrier on the upside lies at 1.3579 (R1). Surpassing of this level might enable our initial target at 1.3594 (R2) and any further gains would then be limited to last resistive structure at 1.3609 (R3). Downwards scenario: Positive clearance of our key support level at 1.3538 (S1) would enable next target at 1.3523 (S2) en route to our final support for today at 1.3508 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.3579, 1.3594, 1.3609

Upwards scenario: Our next resistance level is placed at 1.6050 (R1). Break here would open route towards to higher target at 1.6068 (R2) and any further price advance would then be limited to 1.6086 (R3). Downwards scenario: Failure to establish corrective structure might lead to further downtrend evolvement later on today. Penetration below the support at 1.6005 (S1) would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5987 (S2) and 1.5970 (S3) in perspective.

Resistance Levels: 1.6050, 1.6068, 1.6086

Upwards scenario: Price is consolidating on the hourly timeframe however we see potential to overcome our next resistance level at 97.50 (R1) later on today. Our initial targets locates at 97.73 (R2) and 97.96 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, prolonged movement below the supportive measure at 96.92 (S1) is required to activate new phase of downtrend expansion. We would suggest next aim at 96.68 (S2) and then final target could be met at 96.45 (S3).

Chinese government officials fire off warning to USA treasury

The DJIA closed down 0.90% having experienced a late sell off towards the close of the afternoon session on Monday. As the day unwound any optimism for a solution faded, as did the secular rally enjoyed mid afternoon in the New York session. The SPX followed suit, closing down 0.85% and the NASDAQ closed down 0.98%. In the Chinese government's first public comments on the deadlock, Zhu urged Washington politicians to "learn their lessons from history". A reminder that the US AAA credit rating was downgraded by S&P two years ago after the last debt ceiling standoff. Zhu said; "The United States is totally clear about China's concerns about the fiscal cliff. We ask that the United States earnestly takes steps to resolve in a timely way before October 17 the political [issues] around the debt ceiling and prevent a U.S. debt default to ensure safety of Chinese investments in the United States and the global economic recovery. This is the United States' responsibility."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Our technical outlook for the medium-term perspective remains bullish oriented. Clearance of next resistance level at 1.3583 (R1) would enable bullish pressure and open route towards to our next targets at 1.3607 (R2) and 1.3630 (R3). Downwards scenario: Medium-term bias is clearly positive however possible progress below the initial support level at 1.3560 (S1) might expose our intraday targets at 1.3542 (S2) and then 1.3517 (S3) in perspective.

Resistance Levels: 1.3583, 1.3607, 1.3630
Support Levels: 1.3560, 1.3542, 1.3517

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: Possible upwards formation is limited now to resistive measure at 1.6099 (R1). A break above it would suggest next intraday target at 1.6122 (R2) and if the price holds its momentum we can expect price increase towards to final resistance at 1.6150 (R3). Downwards scenario: If the price manages to overcome our next support barrier at 1.6061 (S1), we expect to see further market decline towards to our next target at 1.6035 (S2) and then next stop could be found at 1.6008 (S3) mark.

TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium

Upwards scenario: Immediate resistance at 97.29 (R1) remains in near-term focus, climb above this level might open way for a stronger move towards to next interim target at 97.58 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistive measure at 97.87 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, our next support level aligns at 96.79 (S1) and possible price regress below it might encounter downside rally. In such scenario we would suggest next intraday targets to be placed at 96.43 (S2) and 96.05 (S3).

IMF lowers global growth targets as USA debt ceiling impasse drags on

The IMF now expects the global economy to expand by 2.9% in 2013 and 3.6% in 2014, down by 0.3 and 0.2 points respectively on its last predictions, made in July, despite signs of recovery in the euro area. Obama's late statement on Tuesday evening spooked the USA indices, at the start of his speech the DJIA was hovering around a 0.7% loss on the day, by the time he'd finished and the markets had closed the DJIA was down 1.07%, the SPX closed down 1.23% and the NASDAQ down a precise 2.00% on the day. Equity index futures are, at the time of writing, pointing to another negative day on both the European and USA markets. The DJIA equity index future is down 0.92%, SPX down 1.06%, NASDAQ down 1.69%. UK FTSE equity index future is down 0.91%, CAC down 0.73% and the DAX equity index future is down 0.24% The dollar increased 0.2 percent to 96.88 yen late in New York on Tuesday after gaining as much as 0.6 percent earlier in the day. The greenback was little changed at $1.3573 per euro after rising 0.2 percent earlier. The 17-nation shared common currency appreciated by 0.1 percent to 131.49 yen. The dollar rose versus 13 of its 16 most-traded peers as the U.S. political stalemate persisted and President Barack Obama warned the nation faces a “very deep recession” if Congress doesn’t raise the debt limit, fueling safe haven demand for the dollar.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: EURUSD tested negative territory today though appreciation above the resistive structure at 1.3584 (R1) might shift short-term tendency to the bullish side and validate our intraday targets at 1.3596 (R2) and 1.3607 (R3). Downwards scenario: Market decline below the support level at 1.3557 (S1) might shift market sentiment to the bearish side. In such scenario we expect next targets to be exposed today at 1.3546 (S2) and 1.3535 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.3584, 1.3596, 1.3607
Support Levels: 1.3557, 1.3546, 1.3535

OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down
TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: From the technical side, medium - term tendency is bearish, however new step of recovery phase is possible above the resistance level at 1.6086 (R1). Loss here would open way towards to next targets at 1.6106 (R2) and 1.6127 (R3). Downwards scenario: Our next support level is placed at 1.6058 (S1). Possible penetration below it might initiate bearish pressure and gradually push the price towards to our intraday targets at 1.6039 (S2) and 1.6019 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 1.6086, 1.6106, 1.6127

TREND CONDITION : Upward penetration
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: USDJPY trapped to the correction phase on the hourly chart frame. Break of resistive level at 97.48 (R1) is required to enable upwards action. Next visible targets are seen at 97.67 (R2) and 97.85 (R3). Downwards scenario: Though, we still keep the bearish scenario in focus. Risk of market decline is seen below the support level at 97.18 (S1). Loss here would enable initial targets at 97.00 (S2) and 96.80 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 97.48, 97.67, 97.85

Yellen's hard task highlighted by the minutes from the FOMC

Janet Yellen's difficult task was highlighted by the FOMC minutes published on Wednesday. Policy makers at the US Federal Reserve were split over the benefits of slowing down (tapering) its $85bn a month asset purchases in September, highlighting the difficult task facing her as she prepares to take chairmanship of the central bank. Barack Obama stepped up his discussions with Congress as USA political leaders look for a solution to the budget crisis that could leave the country without money to pay its bills before the end of the month. The president will meet senior Republicans from the House of Representatives at the White House on Thursday, after talks with members of his Democratic party on Wednesday evening. US default swaps trade has soared on debt fears. Growing investor fears that Washington could miss a payment on its debt has led to a surge in activity in the market for derivatives that insure against a US default. Commodities were hit hard in Wednesday's trading sessions; ICE WTI oil closing down 2.05% at $101.37 per barrel, NYMEX natural down 1.00% at $3.68 per therm. COMEX gold closed the day down 1.31%, silver down 2.46% at $21.89 per ounce.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: We see potential to test our resistive barrier at 1.3516 (R1) later on today. Successful penetration above this mark might keep bullish sentiment in play and validate our intraday targets at 1.3531 (R2) and 1.3546 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, instrument might enable bearish pressure below the support level at 1.3485 (S1) and prolong initial downtrend development.

Downwards scenario: Fresh low offers a key supportive measure at 1.5914 (S1) on a downside. A violation here is liable to commence correction pattern on the bigger picture and expose our initial targets at 1.5878 (S2) and 1.5845 (S3).

Upwards scenario: While price is quoted above the 20 SMA, our technical outlook would be positive. Clearance of our next resistance level at 97.87 (R1) would suggest next intraday targets at 98.01 (R2) and 98.14 (S3) in perspective. Downwards scenario: On the other hand, depreciation below the support level at 97.65 (S1) would suggest next intraday target at 97.51 (S2) and any further weakening would then be limited to final support level at 97.37 (S3).

Resistance Levels: 97.87, 98.01, 98.14
Support Levels: 97.65, 97.51, 97.37

ECB Agrees on swap line with PBOC as Chinese trade increases

The European Central Bank and the People’s Bank of China agreed to establish a bilateral currency swap line on Thursday, increasing access to trade finance in the euro area and strengthening the international use of the yuan. The swap line will be valid for three years and have a maximum size of 350 billion yuan ($57 billion) when Chinese currency is provided to the ECB and 45 billion euros ($61 billion) when money is given to the PBOC. The arrangement is available to all Eurosystem counter-parties via national central banks, it said. House Speaker John Boehner has proposed extending the federal debt limit until Nov. 22nd as a way to shift debate back to a government-spending bill. The bill wouldn’t end the partial shutdown of the government, which began Oct. 1st after Republicans insisted on changes to the 2010 health-care law. Boehner told reporters the House wants to “offer the president today the ability to move.”

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: On the upside current structure might face next hurdle at 1.3546 (R1). Successful penetration above that mark would suggest next target zone – 1.3559 (R2) onto 1.3573 (R3) price levels. Downwards scenario: Any downside fluctuations remains for now limited to the next support barrier at 1.3517 (S1). Only clear break here would be a signal of possible market easing towards to our targets at 1.3503 (S2) and 1.3489 (S3) in potential

Upwards scenario: Our next resistance level is placed at 1.5993 (R1). Clearance here is required to commence ascending structure towards to next target at 1.6023 (R2) and any further price appreciation would then be limited to 1.6053 (R3) mark. Downwards scenario: On the other side, a dip below the initial support level at 1.5950 (S1) is liable to trigger bearish pressure and drive market price towards to supportive means at 1.5921 (S2) and 1.5891 (S3) in potential.

Upwards scenario: USDJPY resumed upwards penetration today and we see potential to expose our intraday targets at 98.72 (R2) and 98.88 (R3) if the price manages to overcome key resistance measure at 98.56 (R1). Downwards scenario: Possible downside pressure could be maintained if the price penetrates below the support measure at 98.24 (S1).

Central Banks begin to plan for a USA default as the deadline nears

Global central banks are beginning to create contingency plans as to how they'd keep financial markets moving if the U.S. defaults. Jon Cunliffe, the Bank of England deputy governor said in testimony to U.K. Politicians on Monday; "Because in the past it’s always been sorted out is absolutely not a reason to fail to do the contingency planning. I would expect the Bank of England to be planning for it. I’d expect private-sector actors to be doing that, and in other countries as well.” Due to the Columbus Day bank holiday in the USA and Canada the main equity markets were closed and the FX markets experienced less transaction turnover on Monday. European markets mostly experienced a positive day. The STOXX index closed up 0.11%, the UK FTSE up 0.32%, the CAC closed up 0.07%, and the DAX closed down by 0.01%. The Portuguese index closed up the most in the European markets by 0.98%. Equity index futures (at the time of writing) appear to suggest that the USA main indices will tentatively open in positive territory on Tuesday; the DJIA equity index future is up 0.07%, SPX up 0.11% and the NASDAQ equity index future is up 0.15%. Commodities were mainly positive, ICE WTI oil closed the day up 0.22% at $102.24 per barrel, NYMEX natural closed up 1.17% at $3.82 per therm, COMEX gold closed the day up 0.28% at $1271.80 per ounce. Silver on COMEX was flat at the day's end at $21.27 per ounce. The dollar was little changed at 98.53 yen late in New York after weakening earlier as much as 0.5 percent to 98.08 yen. It rose 1.9 percent over the previous four days. The dollar fell 0.2 percent to $1.3565 per euro. Japan’s currency declined 0.1 percent to 133.65 per euro after weakening to 133.60 on Oct. 11th, the least since Sept. 26th. The U.S. Dollar Index, tracking the currency’s performance versus a basket of 10 leading counterparts, slid up to 0.23 percent, the biggest intraday drop since Oct. 2nd, to 1,010.07 before trading at 1,011.21, down 0.12 percent.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: On the upside potential is seen for a break above the resistance at 1.3599 (R1). In such case we would suggest next target at 1.3616 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistance at 1.3631 (R3). Downwards scenario: Possible pull back development is limited now to the key supportive barrier at 1.3551 (S1). Only loss here would be considered as a beginning of a retracement expansion. Our intraday targets locates at 1.3536 (S2) and 1.3517 (S3).

Subsequently loss here might create upside momentum and drive market price towards to our initial targets at 1.6042 (R2) and 1.6061 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: We do expect some pull-backs development on the downside below the support level at 1.5964 (S1). Short-term momentum on the negative side might open the way towards to immediate supports at 1.5938 (S2) and 1.5914 (S3).

Downwards scenario: In terms of technical levels, risk of price depreciation is seen below the next support level at 98.10 (S1). Loss here would suggest to monitor marks at 97.89 (S2) and 97.69 (S3) as possible intraday targets.

Debt ceiling temporary solution provides temporary market relief

The debt ceiling resolution saw the DJIA rise by 1.36% on Wednesday. The compromise will fund the government through to mid-January and raise the debt ceiling through Feb. 7th. It also will set up a budget conference on long-term fiscal issues that would end no later than Dec. 13th. The Treasury Department will still be able to use "extraordinary measures" to work around the debt ceiling in the case that it is not raised by Feb. 7th. The first estimate for the euro area1 (EA17) trade in goods balance with the rest of the world in August 2013 gave a 7.1 billion euro surplus, compared with +4.6 bn in August 2012. The July 20132 balance was +18.0 bn, compared with +13.8 bn in July 2012. In August 2013 compared with July 2013, seasonally adjusted exports rose by 1.0% and imports by 0.2%. Euro area annual inflation was 1.1% in September 2013, down from 1.3% in August. A year earlier the rate was 2.6%. Monthly inflation was 0.5% in September 2013. European Union annual inflation was 1.3% in September 2013, down from 1.5% in August. A year earlier the rate was 2.7%. Monthly inflation was 0.4% in September 2013. The DJIA index closed up 1.36% on Wednesday, the SPX up 1.38% and NASDAQ up 1.20%. The debt ceiling compromise came too late to impact on European markets, STOXX index closed up 0.36%, FTSE up 0.34%, CAC closed down 0.29% and the DAX up 0.47%. The MIB closed up the most by 1.45% on the day.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Short- term tendency is bearish even though both moving averages are pointing up. Though risk of market strengthening is seen above the resistance level at 1.3555 (R1). Clearance here would open way towards to next targets at 1.3571 (R2) and 1.3588 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside our attention is shifted to the immediate support level at 1.3517 (S1). Break here is required to enable bearish forces and expose our intraday targets at 1.3498 (S2) and 1.3479 (S3).

TREND CONDITION : Sideway
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: GBP/USD determined clear sideways tone on the medium-term timeframe. Possibility of market appreciation is seen above the resistance level at 1.5999 (R1). Break here is required to validate next targets at 1.6019 (R2) and 1.6042 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, price pattern suggests bearish potential if the instrument manages to overcome next support level at 1.5938 (S1). Possible price regress could expose our initial targets at 1.5914 (S2) and 1.5892 (S3) in potential.

Resistance Levels: 1.5999, 1.6019, 1.6042

TREND CONDITION : Up trend
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High

Upwards scenario: Instrument consolidates from its initial uptrend formation on the hourly chart. Resistance level at 98.82 (R1) is a key technical point on the upside. Penetration above it would suggest higher targets at 99.01 (R2) and 99.20 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: Prolonged movement below the initial support level at 92.28 (S1) might trigger protective orders and drive the price towards to our intraday targets at 98.10 (S2) and 97.89 (S3) later on today.

China’s central government has called for “unrelenting” implementation of its economic policies and reform measures

Monday sees the publication of Germany's PPI figure and the monthly report from Germany's Bundesbank. Inflation is expected to come in at 0.1% month on month. In the USA another member of the Fed will hold court with the focus moving from the debt ceiling issue to the other issues affecting the USA economy, such as the throttling of monetary easing by way of tapering. Existing home sales in the USA are expected to come in at 5.31 million from the previous month's 5.48 million. Canada's wholesale sales are anticipated to print at 0.6%. USA crude oil inventory figures are suggested to fall to 3.4 million barrels from 6.8 million barrels the previous month. More arrivals from China contributed to a 7 percent increase in visitors to New Zealand in September 2013, compared with September 2012, Statistics New Zealand said today. "The 21,200 visitors from China was well up from 14,000 last September," population statistics manager Andrea Blackburn said. "This continues the strong growth in visitor numbers which we have seen from the world's most populous country in recent years." In the September 2013 year, visitor arrivals rose 3 percent to reach 2.670 million.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: EURUSD clearly determined positive bias on the medium-term perspective. Penetration above the resistive measure at 1.3704 (R1) might encourage protective orders execution and drive market price towards to the next resistive means at 1.3721(R2) and 1.3739 (R3). Downwards scenario: Our next supportive measure locates at 1.3658 (S1). Break here is required to enable correction action towards to next target at 1.3641 (S2).

TREND CONDITION : Sideway
TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish

Upwards scenario: On the upside fractal level at 1.6225 (R1) prevents further gains. Successful clearance here would suggest next intraday targets at 1.6248 (R2) and 1.6269 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the other hand, current range pattern on the hourly chart suggest possible retest of our supportive measure at 1.6148 (S1). Break here is required to open way towards to initial targets at 1.6125 (S2) and 1.6102 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, successful retest of our support level at 97.74 (S1) would clear the way for a downtrend expansion towards to our lower targets at 97.59 (S2) and 97.43 (S3) in potential

Tuesday's NFP day, let's be careful out there

The big event of the day is the 18 day late publication of the NFP figures. Traders need to exercise caution as the figure might come in far better than predicted, but be subject to significant revisions due to the temporary govt. shutdown. The anticipation is for a print of 182K jobs created with the unemployment rate remaining steady at 7.3%. The benchmark 10-year yield rose two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 2.60 percent as of 5 p.m in New York. The price of the 2.5 percent note due in August 2023 fell 6/32, or $1.88 per $1,000 face amount, to 99 1/8. The yield declined to 2.54 percent on Oct. 18th, the lowest since July 24th, down from a 2013 high of 3 percent on Sept. 6th.Treasury 10-year notes snapped a three-day advance before the NFP government report on Tuesday.

The yen fell 0.5 percent to 98.19 per dollar after gaining 1.1 percent during the previous two days. Japan’s currency declined 0.4 percent to 134.32 per euro and touched 134.38, the weakest level since Sept. 23rd. The dollar was little changed at $1.3681 per euro after gaining 0.3 percent earlier. The U.S. Dollar Index, which monitors the greenback versus a basket of 10 other major currencies, rose 0.2 percent to 1,004.55 late in New York. The gauge fell to 1,000.70 on Oct. 18th, the lowest intraday level since Feb. 13th, extending a weekly loss to 1 percent, the most in a month. The price of crude oil fell below $100 a barrel Monday after the U.S. government reported an increase in supplies. Metals prices were broadly higher and crop prices were mixed. Crude oil for November delivery fell $1.59, or 1.6 percent, to $99.22 a barrel in New York. That's the first close below $100 a barrel since July.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Possibility of further price progress is seen above the next resistance level at 1.3688 (R1). Breakthrough here would suggest interim target at 1.3704 (R2) and then mark at 1.3721 (R3) acts as next attractive point. Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the 20 SMA our technical outlook would be negative. Extension lower the key support level at 1.3651 (S1) is being able to drive market price towards to our next targets at 1.3635 (S2) and 1.3618 (S3).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: EURUSD gained momentum on the upside recently and likely resume its uptrend formation. Clearance of our next resistive structure at 1.3794 (R1) would open way towards to our initial target at 1.3821 (R2) and any further market rise would then be targeting 1.3846 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside bearish pressure might push the price below the support at 1.3750 (S1). Further downside extension would open road towards to next target at 1.3727 (S2) and any further losses would then be limited to 1.3704 (S3) mark.
