Starting the day

Hi everyone! Risk aversion continues easing slowly, dragging dollar down across the board, although so far rises in high yield currencies had been pretty much limited, with Euro and Pound unable to gain bullish momentum. Commodity currencies have a better tone, with AUD/USD nearing 1.0700 and USD/CAD around 0.9640 area, and signaling a continuation, while Swiss Franc and Yen, despite bullish against dollar, had hardly managed to move from past Asian opening levels.

 
EUR/USD quotes just above 1.4300, with 1.4345, daily high as immediate resistance ahead of 1.4380/1.4410 area. Strong support comes at 1.4250, so only below that last a retest of 1.4200 and some bearish pressure seems likely.


GBP/USD despite gaining more ground continues trading below 1.6300 recent highs and strong static area. Unless clear consolidation above, the upside should remain limited. Next resistances come at 1.6345 and 1.6380 area, not seen for today. Supports, are located at 1.6230 1.6190 area, and 1.6150.


Strong fundamental data will be published in Canada, where CPI readings could trigger a selloff in USD/CAD if much higher than expected, as seen in previous month. Here is the link for today's calendar:
