Euro Steady Despite Greek Downgrade


Morning Report: 8.30 London

• This morning, financial markets are relatively steady with various cross currents making it hard for traders to catch a strong trend. The euro is holding relatively steady despite the downgrade of Greek debt over the weekend – The move was largely telegraphed and as such factored in to current prices. The EUR/USD is rallying after heavy selling on Friday, while the EUR/GBP is seeing similar movement.
                                                                                                                                       

                              

                               

• The S&P 500 has opened in negative territory however the 100 period average is still holding. It’s a similar story on the dollar index where the 14 period moving average still hold.

                              

• The NZD/USD is one of the standout performers, out performing the Australian dollar after Tony Abbot survived a no confidence vote.

                               

                              

• The USD/JPY is slipping lower after storming gains on Friday.

                                

• Finally, Gold is steady after heavy selling last week.
 
                               

 Coming up today:

• We have a light day on the economic data front, with FOMC member Powell speaking at 21.00 the only highlight.

Trade Idea:

• Gold has been selling off heavily, but is not quite yet in extreme over sold territory. As such, there could be further downside from here as the trend strengthens.

                               

A good way to play this is as LOWER trade predicting that Gold will close below $1225 in 7 days time for a potential return of 182%.
