Euro Rally Falters


Morning Report: 8.30 London

• This morning the euro’s rally has stalled, with the EUR/USD dipping 0.31% this morning and the EUR/GBP slipping back by a similar magnitude. It’s more an absence of good news than anything negatively concrete behind today’s flows. Murmurs persist of the ability of the new Greek government to fulfil its anti austerity promises and there is much sabre rattling over a possible ‘Grexit’, but much of this was in the air before the elections.                                                                                                                                                                                                         

                              

                               

• The big mover this morning is the Australian dollar, with the AUD/JPY up 0.79% and the AUD/USD up 0.69%. The Aussie is climbing after bigger than expected mean CPI figures.

                               
                                  
                                

• Elsewhere, the dollar index is stable after two days of selling, while the S&P 500 climbed off the lows rapidly last night on the news of Apples record breaking profits.

                               
 
                               
                              
Coming up today:

• Today’s main ticket is the FOMC statement at 19.00, though no change is expected.

• Following this we have the latest RBNZ rate statement at 20.00, followed by trade balance at 21.45.

Trade Idea:

• As the euro rally pauses today, it come be a good time to re-load on short positions. While the British GDP undershot yesterday, there’s still plenty of hurdles for the Eurozone to overcome in coming months.

                               

A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that the EUR/GBP will close below 0.7400 in 62 days time could return 157% if successful.
