Dollar On Back Foot

Morning Report: 06.30 London

• This morning, the US Dollar is giving back some of Friday’s gains as investors switch back to the Yen.

• The Pound and Euro are making reasonable gains after heavy selling on Friday, but so far these moves appear tentative.

• The big winner is the Japanese Yen, with the Yen pairs set to test the February lows.

• The Australian and New Zealand Dollar are lagging however, with the NZD/USD gapping lower at the open after severe selling on Friday.

Coming up today:

• Coming up today we have German retail sales at 07.00.

• This is followed by UK net lending to individuals at 09.30.

• European CPI flash estimate follows at 10.00.

• Canadian current account data is released at 13.30, alongside RMPI.

• Chicago PMI is released at 14.45, with pending home sales at 15.00.

Trade Idea:

• The GBP/JPY is on the back foot again this morning, extending the recent losing run. Upside is likely to limited until the result of the ‘Brexit’ referendum, making a LOWER trade attractive.
                      

A good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that the GBP/JPY closes below 155.00 in 10 days for a potential return of 185%.
