EURUSD chart may encourage bearish movement
After having just notched a new seven-month low of 1.0660, further downside likely awaits the EUR/USD pair, the daily chart suggests. A bearish technical bias re-established Monday is likely to keep the euro under pressure and aimed toward the 1.0500 round-figure trading barrier.
The daily Bollinger downtrend channel came back into effect with Monday’s fall, which was partially triggered by the knee-jerk reaction to the terror attacks in Paris. If EUR/USD stays under the 1.0737 ceiling of the channel by Tuesday’s close, it would encourage bearish bets. The fundamental outlook for the EUR/USD pair is still fundamentally negative, due to the divergence in monetary policy stance adopted by the European Central Bank and the U.S. Federal Reserve; the release of the FOMC meeting minutes Wednesday may affirm that the latter is likely to raise interest rates next month. EUR/USD is now trading at 1.0666 from its Monday close of 1.0684.
 
China’s Yuan down Marginally
China’s yuan is marginally weaker against the U.S. dollar Tuesday, despite the central bank benchmarking the daily parity rate fractionally stronger at 6.3740 versus Monday’s 6.3750 to the greenback. The daily USD/CNY chart retains a positive technical stance, implying that the yuan could weaken further against the U.S. dollar in the near term, though at a very gradual pace. The gentle upward-sloping Bollinger channel will be validated by a Tuesday close above 6.3683, and could guide USD/CNY toward the round-figure trading barrier of 6.4000 in the weeks ahead.

The yuan has not gained in spite of recent hints from the International Monetary Fund that it could be included in the Special Drawing Rights currency basket. The immediate implication for the yuan is likely to be muted even if SDR status is confirmed, since fund managers may not rebalance their currency basket positions until the weighting of the yuan within the SDR is revealed. USD/CNY is now trading at 6.3733 from its Monday close of 6.3724.
