USD/JPY - 103.14... The greenback swung wildly in hectic trading on the first trading day of 2021. The pair met renewed selling at 103.31 ahead of Asian open yesterday and fell to a near 10-month trough at 102.72 in European morning after penetrating December's bottom at 102.88. However, lack of follow-through selling triggered active short-covering and price rebounded strongly to 103.25 in New York on safe-haven usd buying due to a selloff in U.S. stocks.

Although dollar's rebound from yesterday's near 10-month trough at 102.72 to 103.25 suggests recent decline has made a temporary low there and choppy trading with mild upside bias would be seen, reckon offers at 103.30/40 would limit upside and yield another fall. Below 102.97/00 would bring re-test of said bottom, break would extend to 102.40/50.

The is a slew of data to be released from U.S. today but one should pay attention to ISM manufacturing PMI at 14:45GMT. Street forecast is 56.6, down from previous reading of 57.5.

EUR/USD - 1.2283... The single currency rebounded strongly from 1.2254 to 1.2306 in New York yesterday and then rose briefly above last Wednesday's fresh 2-1/2 year peak at 1.2309 to 1.2325 in Asia today. However, lack of follow-through selling triggered profit-taking and price retreated sharply to 1.2278 and continues to remain under pressure.

Euro's intra-day sharp retreat from a fresh 2-1/2 year peak at 1.2325 suggests Medium Term upmove has possibly made a temporary top there and consolidation with downside bias remains for stronger retracement to 1.2242.
Offers are now seen at 1.2280/90 and more above at 1.2300/10 with stops building up above there whilst initial bids are seen at 1.2210/20.

The single currency went through a roller-coaster ride on Wednesday as despite initial retreat from 1.2325 to 1.2276 in Asia, price rallied to a fresh 32-month peak at 1.2349 in Europe on usd's weakness together with cross-buying of euro especially vs sterling. Lack of follow-through buying triggered profit-taking and price tumbled to 1.2267 in New York morning before rebounding strongly to 1.2345 in Asia today.

Despite yesterday's selloff from 1.2349 to 1.2267, subsequent rebound to 1.2345 today suggests the pullback has ended and Medium Term upmove would resume after consolidation and head to 1.2368/70, then 1.2388.
Bids are now seen at 1.2310/20 and more below at 1.2290/00 with stops building up below there whilst initial offers are noted at 1.2390/00.

However, lack of follow-through buying triggered short-covering and price recovered to 1.2264.

Euro's intra-day brief break of yesterday's low at 1.2246 to 1.2236 suggests corrective decline from Wednesday's 2-1/2 year peak at 1.2349 has once again resumed and current rebound would yield range trading before prospect of another fall. Offers are now raised to 1.2280/90 with stops building up above there whilst initial bids are noted at 1.2190/00.

There is a slew of data to be released from eurozone today and one should pay particular attention to release of EU unemployment rate at 09:00GMT. Street forecast is 8.5% vs previous reading of 8.4%.

USD/JPY - 104.07... Despite falling to 103.53 in Asia yesterday, price rallied to session highs at 103.99 in Europe due partly to rise in U.S. Treasury yields before retreating to 103.76 in New York.

USD/JPY - 103.71..

Last week's decline from Monday's 4-week peak at 103.53 (Wednesday) n subsequent daily swings suggests further choppy sideways swings are in store n as long as 104.19 (Wed's high) holds, downside bias remains.
