Morning Report: 07.00 London

This morning, the US dollar index is unchanged after two days of solid gains this morning, helping some dollar pairs to gain.

The EUR/USD is making small gains after holding the 1.1200 level yesterday. The GBP/USD is also attempting gains after further selling yesterday that pushed the pair towards 1.2900. The EUR/GBP is setting itself up for its eighth day of gains as the pound continues to struggle. This comes after UK average earnings dropped more than expected yesterday.

The USD/CHF is unchanged after yesterday’s rebound from 1.0050. The EUR/CHF is also recovering after retaining the 1.1300 level.

The USD/JPY is unchanged after yesterday’s counter rally. The AUD/JPY is lower and testing support at 76.00. The EUR/JPY is rallying for the second straight day after holding the 1.2250. The GBP/JPY is following suit.

Coming up today

Trade Idea

Sentiment Warms Despite China Dip

This could lead to further downside and a good way to play this is a LOWER trade predicting that the AUD/USD will close below 0.6900 in 14 days for a potential return of 170%.
