TF2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Author Share Posted December 28, 2012 USD/JPY As the Asian session shifts to Europe, the USD/JPY is weakening and printing daily lows. Early in Asian morning, the pair had ralied intensely from the lower end of the 86.00 mark to 86.64 high on the back of deflationary Japanese data. The National CPI improved from -0.4% to -0.2% in November, but was still negative, as it was “Ex food and energy” and “Ex fresh food” data. Tokyo CPI fell further to -0.6%. The annualized flash Japan industrial production fell from -4.5% to -5.8% in November. UBS analysts are bullish: “We expect more upside in the near term towards 89.16”, wrote analyst Gareth Berry, pointing to 91.13 in case of a break. EUR/USD US Senate majority leader Harry Reid's disappointment yesterday, expecting the country to fall into the fiscal cliff, took the market by surprise as the EUR/USD plunged from 1.3282 to 1.3210, and then went as low as 1.3202. New positions allowed the pair to bounce and range at 1.3240/50 during the Asian session. The EUR/USD is trading at the high end of the range. The House of Representatives will meet in a previously-unscheduled session on Sunday, while President Obama will meet today with Democratic and Republican leaders. UBS analysts are bullish: “We look for a potential break above 1.3386, the March high to extend the strength to 1.3493”, wrote analyst Gareth Berry, pointing to support at 1.3143 EUR/JPY 116.70 is the 50% retracement of the big fall from 139.20 to 94.00 and should be respected, as the Yen pairs always seem to pay particular attention to the 50% pull-back level. Above that, there is more resistance in a row of daily highs near 117.90.Support levels should now be firm beginning at 112.50 down through 111.40. Playing a wide 111.50/116.50 range over the New Year holiday does seem like a sensible strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TF2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 Market Outlook 31 Dec 2012 EUR/USD The dollar rose 0.1 percent to 1.3201 dollars against the euro.

TF2012 Posted December 31, 2012 Author Share Posted December 31, 2012 USD-CHF @ 0.9145/48...Ranged R: 0.9180-200 / 0.9260 / S: 0.9090 / 0.9000 Dollar-Swiss traded in the 0.9180-0.9080 range for the whole week, though the expectation was that it will rise further. In the coming weeks there is still a possibility of it rising towards 0.9260 if it breaks the 0.9080-180 range on the upside. Having said that the bigger trend remains bearish and we expect it to eventually move lower towards 0.9000. It has bounced back from the support on the monthly charts at 0.9090 which needs to be broken for a dip lower. We will have to wait and watch to see which side the range breaks. But if a rise to 0.9260 is seen it would be a selling opportunity with tight stop. GBP-USD @ 1.6152/55...Relatively strong can rise while above 1.6100 R: 1.6160 / 1.6200-15 / 1.6245 /1.6300 S: 1.6100-80 / 1.6015-00 / Cable traded in the tight 1.6200-6070 range for the week, it was looking like a dip to 1.6000 will be seen but it found good support near 1.6100 levels on daily closing basis and managed to close above it on every test of the support. The longer term out look on cable is bullish and a strong rise towards 1.6300-400 can be seen. In the coming week we can see Cable breaking its 1.6200 resistance and move up towards 1.6300 and then towards 1.6400 later. On the down side 1.6100-6080 continues to give good support to the pair. A dip to 1.6000 can only be seen if this immediate support is broken and such dips can be considered for taking Long positions. AUD-USD @ 1.0383/86...Weak R: 1.0400 / 1.0435 / 1.0465 S: 1.0345-40 / 1.0280 / 1.0150 Aussie through the week traded in the tight 1.0400-345 range after it turned down from its highs early December. The expectations are that bearish in the medium term as we are looking for a dip and a fall towards 1.0280 and then to 1.0150 in the coming days. Now there is a possibility of a bounce to 1.0435-60 before this dip take place. Now whether we see a dip or a bounce will depend up which side the range breaks. The weekly candle is weak and I would be slightly in favor of it breaking on the down side from here it self. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pair’s 1.3307 session on the 19th of December which reinforced the barrier, it looks difficult for the level to be reached, and any opposite correction would aim the 1.3165 barrier.

With its 1.6200 psychological barrier it is not unlikely that the pair would push higher to 1.6266 resistance. Any declines will probably be restricted by support at 1.6100.
