Although the European Central Bank, the political left on as has been planned, the comments of the President of the ECB Draghi head that the Central Bank is ready to act if necessary have also helps enhance the feeling, while some well received Thursday EZ auction results were not bad. The Euro now eyes a retest and breaking the previous high weekly 1.2625, while the Yen has also offered very well on the liquidation of parts of refuge. Yet, at the end of the day, it's a market that desperately need on technical correction some intense risk-off moves, and at this stage, we would attribute the recent action of basic price of the "technicals".
European leadership will really need to dig and to come with some serious plans resurrect the area to be any hope of sustainable recovery Euro. Until then, the strategy should be to sell these gatherings of currency in the additional force. In the future, the Bank of England is scheduled for a rate decision later. While no change in policy is expected, there is much speculation that the Bank of England will move to a more dovish stance on the continuous pressure of world macroeconomics. Earlier, UK services PMIS came in better than expected and has helped support the pound sterling.
ECONOMIC CALENDAR
EUR/USD: the market is in train to correct certain levels severely oversold after breakdown of yearly lows little less 1.2300. While our global perspective is clearly downward, by we see still place upside in the short term before a high low is wanted. Locate the last daily close back above 1.2545 to open the door for an acceleration in the region of 1 2800 - 1 3000, where new offers are likely to re-emerge.
USD/CHF: while we retain a broader upward perspective for this pair, with the market seen to establish above parity in the weeks to come, short-term risks are a corrective withdrawal to allow the market to establish a fresh plu bass. Thus, we see risks of weakness in the next sessions to the 0 9300 - 0 9500 area before the market seeks to reaffirm its upward momentum and broader uptrend.



TECHNICAL OUTLOOK
EUR/USD:The market is in the process of correcting from some violently oversold levels after breaking to yearly lows just under 1.2300. While our overall outlook remains grossly bearish, from here we still see room for short-term upside before a fresh lower top is sought out. Look for the latest daily close back above 1.2545 to open the door for acceleration into the 1.2800-1.3000 area, where fresh offers are likely to re-emerge.
USD/JPY:The latest setbacks have been rather intense, with the market collapsing through the 200-Day SMA before finally finding support by 77.65. We have since seen attempts at recovery and we contend that the market should continue to break higher, with sights ultimately set on a retest and break of the 2012 highs by 84.20 further up. However, at this point, we will need to see a break and close back above 80.00 to officially alleviate downside pressures and reaffirm bullish outlook.
GBP/USD: Daily studies are now well oversold and from here risks seem tilted to the upside to allow for a necessary short-term corrective bounce after setbacks stalled just shy of the 2012 lows from January. Look for the latest daily close back above 1.5440 to strengthen short-term bullish outlook, with acceleration projected into the 1.5600-1.5800 area where a fresh lower top will be sought out in favor of underlying bear trend resumption.
USD/CHF: While we retain a broader bullish outlook for this pair, with the market seen establishing back above parity over the coming weeks, shorter-term risks are for more of a corrective pullback to allow for the market to establish a fresh higher low. As such, we see risks for weakness over the coming sessions towards the 0.9300-0.9500 area before the market looks to reassert its bullish momentum and broader uptrend. --- Written by Joel Kruger, Technical Currency Strategist To contact Joel Kruger, email jskruger@dailyfx.com.
