Hi everyone, here we are again. As comment on past Asian opening, dollar hold a weak tone along the Asian session, with EUR/USD reaching 1.2810/20 target zone. Still European morning sees majors unable to extend gains despite positive tone in local share markets; except AUD and CAD, that continue heading higher (looking a bit overextended right now, and probably aiming from some dollar favored corrective movements), Euro was unable to extend gains thus the bullish tone persist as long as above 1.2780.

GBP/USD tested strong 1.5470/80 area, and slump from the levels, as an optimism index that reflects how businesses will develop in the upcoming 2 quarters for the UK, tumbled to 2008/2009 lows. Capped now under 1.5420/30 immediate resistance area, pair remains generaly weak, aiming to approach back to 1.5330 lows area.

USD/JPY regained the downside, hovering around 84.00. Unable to recover ground as Nikkei finally closed to the downside despite the impressive 1.0% opening  up, the bearish trend in the cross remains intact: 83.60, and 83.35 are next in line.

We have no data in the upcoming hours, but a tentative speech from Mr. Jean Claude Trichet; I guess he wants to push away sovereign debt ghost that are flying in the market since past week.

Will take a look at technicals and come back. Have a great trading day!
