looking at short term charts euryen looks 10/40 but a move above there takes us into 141.90
gbpyen 70/40 -- same deal needs a couple of closes above 50 to really push it to a new range .. looks 173/5 ... but $yen going to have to do some more of the heavy lifting.
seems to me that you can wait and when $yen finally shows some momentum follow along... as with the compressed xxx/yen ranges should be directional.
heard the first view today $yen to 101 .. their view was US Economy Slower than expected // US Yields lower.
pretty boring from this trading screen this morning.

China central bank offers emergency funds to banks amid latest cash squeeze
(Reuters) Jan 20, 2014 - China's central bank has provided emergency funding support to commercial banks and will add more cash on Tuesday, as authorities respond to a spike in cash rates ahead of a major holiday, the bank announced on Monday.
The move by the People's Bank of China (PBOC) comes after the interest rate that banks charge each other for short-term loans spiked in recent days. .../..

it is not just Chinese GDP numbers
US retail sales - apparently a 70% contributor to GDP - for example, continue to report dismal numbers while pundit headlines peddle peachy "jobs growth" and "economic recovery" illusion.
All only because Bernanke and his gang are out to save their bankers. They continue to inflict enormous pain on the working salt-of-the-earth producers with 0.1% to Jamie Dimon and Lloyd Blankfeins while their banks charge 13 - 21% on credit cards to folks whose real income is actually declining.
We live and play in a world of morality where inconvenient facts that are un-alterable are either ignored or lied about.

My take is: Distribute this wealth among 3.5B poors and they will spend it in one night on alcohol, women and gambling, they will morning the night with 0$.
Better leave it with the rich, who may produce some more jobs and donate for charity to the poor so they can make more children.

AceTrader Jan 20 : Euro falls to fresh 7-week low

Market Review - 17/01/2014 20:18GMT
Euro falls to fresh 7-week low
The single currency tumbled to a fresh 7-week low at 1.3517 on Friday due to renewed dollar's strength after the release of stronger-than-expected U.S. industrial output, supporting the the view that U.S. economy is improving enough to keep the Federal Reserve's stimulus-reducing measures on track.
U.S. industrial output rose by 0.3%, its fastest clip in 3-1/2 years in the fourth quarter. U.S. New homes last month dropped 9.8%, the largest percentage decline since April, but housing starts were coming off a multi-year high in November. University of Michigan consumer confidence came in weaker-than-expected at 80.4 versus the economists' forecast of 83.5.
The greenback traded inside a tight range of 104.20-104.47 against the Japanese yen. However, the British pound rallied from intra-day low at 1.6309 to as high as 1.6459 after the release of unexpectedly strong U.K. retail sales data, which rose by 2.6% m/m and 5.3% y/y, better than the forecasts of 0.3% m/m and 2.5% y/y respectively with previous readings revised to 0.1% n 1.8%.
In other news, BoE's Broadbent said 'signs that headwinds facing wage growth are starting to abate; good reason to expect business investment growth to accelerate; highly unlikely we'll see anything like the relative price headwinds of past 4 years, opposite more likely; productive growth, euro zone will be key to determining UK recovery path.' Broadbent added later that "UK productivity doesn't look to have been good in H2 2013, but expect a pick-up."
Fed's Lacker says " tapering should continue and that recent data far fm what would be needed to change his view; deflecting monetary policy from price stability mission would be misguided."
