USD/JPY - 84.38 |
Although dollar's cross-inspired selloff from Monday's 85.91 high to 83.66 earlier suggests correction from last week's 15-year low at 83.58 has ended, subsequent rebound to 84.67 suggests choppy trading sideways trading is in store and above said 84.67 resistance would extend gain to 84.90/00 but reckon 85.20/25 would cap upside. On the downside, below 83.66 would signal downtrend has resumed and further weakness towards measured objective at 83.10 would follow. |

Market Review on 03 Sep 2010 21:50 GMT |
Dollar falls broadly as better-than-expected U.S. jobs data boosts risk appetite |
The greenback dropped against most major currencies on Friday as better-than-expected U.S. non-farm payrolls eased recent worries on U.S. economic recovery and boosted demand for risky assets and higher-yielding currencies such as the Australian dollar. Although the greenback traded narrowly in Asia and European morning, the pair jumped to 85.23 immediately after release of better-than-expected key U.S. jobs data. However, dollar retreated from there on profit-taking together with cross buying in yen versus other European currencies and later ...

85.15 - Hourly chart 84.89 - Hourly chart 84.67 - Wednesday's NY high | 84.00 - Yesterday's low 83.58 - Last Tue's low 83.10 - 61.8% proj. of 88.12-83.58 fm 85.91 |
USD/JPY - 84.30.. Dlr spent a lackluster day y'day trading 'inside' Wed's
range of 83.66-84.67 as market's focus has turned to other major currencies.
Although another day of sideways consolidation is envisaged in Asian n
European morning sessions, the release of key U.S. jobs data later today hope-
fully wud move dlr outside the aforesaid near term range.
Look at the daily chart, despite the bullish converging signals on the
daily indicators at last week's 15-year low at 83.58, as price is currently trad
ing below the 13-day n 55-day emas, suggesting as long as Monday's high at 85.91
holds, dlr's downtrend shud reassert itself n head twd 83.10, being 61.8% proj.
of the MT intermediate fall fm 88.12-83.58 measured fm 85.91, however, as hourly
oscillators' readings wud display prominent bullish convergences on next decline
, reckon 82.93 (50% proj. of 124.14-87.10 fm 101.45) wud hold fm here.
Today, as long as y'day's 84.00 low holds, consolidation with initial
upside bias is seen, abv 84.67 wud bring stronger gain to 85.15/25 but reckon
res at 85.91 wud remain intact. Below 84.00 may yield weakness twd 83.58.

Gbp/usd - 1.5415 ... Despite y'day's selloff to 1.5350, the British pound rebounded to 1.5428 on short-covering n in part due to cross unwinding in sterling.

USD/JPY - 84.22.. All quiet on the eastern front following several big swings in the beginning of the week as all eyes n ears are switched to the key U.S. jobs report later in the day (market is also paying attention to the private payrolls number as recent overall payrolls data is expected to have been skewed by the loss of government census hiring, among other factors). Ichiro Ozawa, who is challenging Japanese PM Naoto Kan in this month's DPJ's presidential election said today on a TV Asahi program that intervention in currency markets to stem the yen's appreciation is a possibility, he also added Japan can also use the strong yen to secure resources globally. In other earlier news, a report fm China Securities Journal, an official newspaper disclosed the Chinese government's currency reserves, which stand as being the world's largest at $2.45 trillion, are held in 65% in usd, 26% in euros, 5% in sterling and 3% in yen. Recently, market source reported China has been buyer of euro govt. debts as well as Japanese govt. bonds, S. Korean govt. debts n a small holding in the Malaysian ringgit but as usd remains as a large component (two thirds) in the C.B.'s portfolio, it appears unlikely China is able to make any significant shift out of usd as y'day's report by BIS showed Uncle Sam remains the major dominant ccy in the world. |
