Kiwi gains ground

Morning Report: 08.15 London

• Markets have found reasons to be cheerful this morning, with the S&P 500 nudging higher and the Dollar Index dipping back. Traders are weighing up US retail sales and the budget agreements.



 

 

• The NZD/USD is seeing the biggest movement, up 0.44% after the decision to keep rates on hold mid week. The Australian dollar is also recovering after some ugly volatility.

 


 


• The yen pairs are nudging higher, with the EUR/JPY showing the most impressive trend continuation.

Coming up today:
• It’s a light day for the economic calendar, with MPC Dale’s speech at 12.30 one of the main highlights.

• From 13.30, we get US PPI data.

Trade Idea:
• The AUD/JPY’s volatility has continued this week after heavy selling on Wednesday. There are signs of life this morning, but any moves could be fleeting.



A good way to play this could be a ONE TOUCH trade predicting that the AUD/JPY TOUCHES 93.50 in 3 days time for a potential return of 114%.

This is presented as an idea to stimulate fixed odds financial betting ideas and is not financial advice.
