12 Jun 2017 02:01GMT

USD/JPY - 110.19.. Despite last Friday's impressive rise from 109.77 (AUS) to as high as 110.81 in New York due to broad-based usd's strength on the back of selloff in sterling and rising U.S. Treasury yields, the pair retreated in New York afternoon as US yields eased together with retreat in U.S. stocks and inta-day softness in early Asian trading, suggesting 1st leg of correction from last Wednesday's 6-week bottom at 109.12 has ended and consolidation with downside bias is in store.

Therefore, selling dlr on recovery is favoured but profit should be taken on subsequent decline.
Offers are tipped at 110.45/50 n more above with stops reported above 110.85, bids are noted at 110.15-10 with stops below 110.00.
More stops are touted below 109.70 with there is market talk of good buying interest at 109.40-20 area.

No U.S. eco. data is due out today except U.S. Fed budget at 18:00GMT, however, main focus is the 2-day FOMC meeting which starts tom where the Fed is widely expected to hike its key rates for the 2nd time this year on Wednesday, so dlr should be supported on dips initially this week.

Intra-Day Market Moving News and Views
13 Jun 2017 002:12GMT

USD/JPY - 109.98.. In contrast to yesterday's weak undertone in Asian trading, the pair extended rebound from Monday's New York low of 109.63 to 110.11 in early Asian trading due to cross-selling in yen vs aud n the euro, suggesting range trading with upside bias is in store.
Steady U.S. Treasury yields (benchmark 10-year yield is currently 2.2145%, up from Monday's low at 2.1865%) are supporting the greenback vs G4 currencies as the FOMC starts its 2-day policy meeting today and market has more or less priced in a 100% probability of 2nd quarter-point rate hike for the year on Wednesday.

Therefore, trading the greenback from long side is favoured (our daily strategy has entered long at 109.65).
Bids are noted at 109.80 and more at 109.65-60 with stops below 109.30, more stops are reported below last week's 109.12 low.
On the upside, initial offers are tipped at 110.10/15 with some stops above there, more selling interest is touted at 110.40/50 with stops above there.

Pay attention to U.S. inflation data later in the day, at 12:30GMT, May CPI and PPI will be released, if actual readings come in slightly above street forecast, the usd will be bought. Then at 12:55GMT, Redbook retail sales will come out.

Intra-Day Market Moving News and Views
15 Jun 2017 02:19GMT

EUR/USD - 1.1221.. Euro is trading in familiar territory after swinging below and above the 1.1200 mark in last 3 consecutive sessions this week.

Despite yesterday's jump after release of lower-then-expected U.S. CPI and retail sales and hitting a 7-month peak of 1.1296, market chatter of option barrier at 1.1300 capped euro's gain and price later tumbled to 1.1194 following hawkish Fed statement.

Looks like 1.1300 is what some call 'a bridge too far' for the euro to cross, so one can contemplate short positions for daily and weekly positions for a long-overdue correction of recent upmove.
Offers are tipped at 1.1250/60 and more above with stops above 1.1300.
Bids are noted at 1.1200-80 with stops below 1.1160.

Euro area countries will release a slew of eco. data, Eurogroup will meet in Luxembourg today (ECB's Draghi and Coeure will participate in the meeting), EZ FUnMins also meet in Brussels.

16 Jun 2017 02:32GMT

USD/JPY - 111.15.. Dlr stands tall in Asian trading on Friday, actually it stands tallest among its G7 peers after extending near term upmove from Wednesday's 7-week low of 108.83 to a near 2-week high of 111.23 today after penetrating yesterday's New York high of 110.97 as rising U.S. Treasury yields (currently at 2.17% vs Thursay's close at 2.162%) and firm Japanese stocks (N255 current up 0.5% at 19939) have boosted risk sentiment, suggesting the pair would continue its ascent due to broad-based usd's strength which started in Wed's post-FOMC New York session.

Whilst market awaits this week's 4th and last central bank monetary policy meeting by the BoJ any time today, the central bank is widely expected to stand pat on its rate decision and asset purchase programme, so traders may have to wait for comments by BoJ Governor Kuroda at the press conference at 06:30GMT.

Until then, bids have been raised to 110.85-75 with stops below 110.60.
Offer are tipped at 111.25/35 and more above with stops above previous res at 111.71.

Pay attention to a slew of U.S. eco. data later in the day starting with building permits, housing starts n University of Michigan consumer confidence, if actual readings of the latter 2 data come out better than street forecast, then the greenback will head higher in New York morning.

19 Jun 2017 02:00GMT

USD/JPY - 111.04.. Despite intra-day selloff from 111.42 to as low as 110.66 in New York morning after downbeat U.S. housing data and lower-than-expected consumer confidence, the greenback regained traction in early Asian trading on Monday after finding renewed buying earlier at 110.77 (New Zealand) and climbed back to 111.14 in Tokyo.

Intra-day gain due to rising Japanese stocks (N225 currently up 117 points at 20060) and a recovery in U.S. Treasury yields (benchmark 10-year yield currently at 2.1601% from Friday's low at 2.144%) suggests price will be en route to 111.60/70 after consolidation.
Bids are noted at 110.80-70 with stops below 110.60.
Offers are tipped at 111.15/25 with stops above 111.45.

21 Jun 2017 02:23GMT

EUR/USD - 1.1135... The single currency is nursing loss in subdued Asian trading after yesterday's break of last week's 1.1133 low to a near 3-week bottom of 1.1119.
Despite intra-day choppy swings in Europe due to buying of eur vs gbp and jpy, the euro finally succumbed to active selling pressure on renewed usd's strength in NY morning trading and fell to 1.1119 after tripping some stops below 1.1130.
However, bids above daily sup at 1.1110 contained intra-day weakness and price later inched higher to 1.1135/36 on minor short covering at New York close, then marginally higher to 1.1138 in Asian morning.

Although range trading above Tuesday's temp. low is expected until European open, as yesterday's break of last week's 1.1133 low signals recent decline has resumed, one can expect further losses to occur in Europe, so trading euro from short side is the way to go.
Offers are tipped at 1.1140/45 and more above with stops above 1.1165.
Some bids are noted at 1.1120-10 with stops below 1.1100.

23 Jun 2017 02:03GMT

USD/JPY - 111.33.. The greenback maintains a steady to firm undertone on subdued Asian morning after a mini roller-coaster session on Thursday. Although price met renewed selling in Australia yesterday on renewed cross-buying of yen to session lows of 110.95 in Asia on falling U.S. Treasury yields, price later ratcheted back to 111.44 in New York morning as U.S. yields firmed, dlr later moved narrowly after failure to penetrate 111.44 res.

Although range trading is likely to continue, as rebound from 110.95 suggests pullback from Tuesday's 3-week peak at 111.79 has ended, trading the buck from long side is recommended.
