Euro Reverses After Day of Dominance


Morning Report: 06.30 London


• This morning, the euro is on the back foot after a strong showing yesterday, especially against the British pound. UK public spending increased more than expected, questioning the economic recovery trumpeted by Chancellor Osborne.
            



• Despite a weaker euro, the dollar index is extending its losing run this morning, mainly due to a stronger showing for Australasian currencies.

• The Aussie and Kiwi dollar are extending their winning run, with the NZD/USD out-performing.

          



Coming up today:

• The UK comes under focus again, with current account and final GDP data from 09.30.

• From 13.30, we switch to North America for Canadian retail sales, released alongside US core durable goods orders.

• From 15.00, we get US new home sales and revised UoM consumer sentiment.

Trade Idea:

• The GBP/JPY has been a consistent loser this last month as traders adapt to an expected delay in increasing UK interest rates.
                      

Today, we get current account data that could add further weakness.

A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that the GBP/JPY will close below 179.00 in 35 days for a potential return of 131%.
