Yen slumps to seven year low

Morning Report: 08.30 London

• This morning, the Japanese yen has continued to dominate currency movements, slumping to a seven year low against the US dollar. The main yen pairs are all trading at recent highs, led once again by the EUR/JPY.
                                                                 

                               

• The EUR/JPY is up 0.36%, with the USD/JPY up 0.17%

                                                                                                                                                                                                
                               

• The euro continues to out perform, with the EUR/GBP up 0.30% and the EUR/USD up 0.20%.

                               

                               

• The NZD/USD is recovering after heavy selling on Wednesday.

                              
                                                                                                                                                                               
Coming up today:

• Today we have a busy day for the euro, with French manufacturing and German manufacturing already released and coming in below expectations.

• Still to come we have European wide Flash Manufacturing and Flash Services.

• Following this, we have UK retail sales at 09.30, followed by UK retail sales at 09.30.

• This afternoon, we have Canadian wholesale sales, followed by CPI and unemployment claims.

Trade Idea:


• The USD/JPY has shown no signs of retreating and until this trend shows signs of a serious correction, there’s no point fighting the flow.

                               
                               
A good way to play this is a HIGHER trade predicting that the USD/JPY will close higher than 119.25 in 5 days time. This could return 167% if successful.
