EUR/USD
Has found a near-term support at 1.4050/40 zone, ahead of fresh thrust higher, clearing 1.4100 barrier and approaching 1.4150. Market now eyes 1.4280/1.4313, Oct 2010 peak / major trendline resistance, drawn off 1.6039, all time high. Overbought hourly conditions see scope for correction, with immediate support at 1.4050/40. Further down, 1.3980, today’s low, 20 day MA, offers key near-term support, and only break here would delay immediate bulls.

GBP/USD
Yesterday’s strength off 1.5959, short-term range bottom was capped by 1.62 zone, ahead of sharp reversal to 1.6059, near 61.8% retracement of 1.5959/1.6190, where a temporary support was found. Fresh attempt at 1.6190/1.62 is under way, with clear break required to resume near-term gains and open 1.6241, ahead of range ceiling at 1.63/1.6342. Failure to clear 1.62, however, will signal further range trading while 1.5959 holds the downside.

USD/JPY
Extends near-term recovery after hitting fresh all-time low at 76.25. Consolidation within 78.20/79.00 range preceded strong rally, fueled by CB’s intervention, and regaining 82.00 handle. While holding above initial support at 79.80, scope exists for further gains towards 82.45 and 83.00/30 on a break. Losing 79.80 will re-focus 78.20/76.25.

USD/CHF
Has dipped to fresh record low at 0.8900 after losing the previous 0.9139 handle.
Correction/consolidation above 0.8960 is under way, though 0.9090 caps for now. Regain of 0.92 level is needed to signal recovery and open 0.9370 next, otherwise fresh attack at 0.8960/00 and posting new record high, would be likely scenario.
