CB- I've rarely seen the forex market react noticeably to any Treasury auction. I know they are a big deal for bond traders which is why I include them in the calendar.

"
5-yr Auction- Usually not a market mover."
fwiw
owing to the Flatner Trade...sell 5s buy 30's that is currently in the process of being Unwound. This Auction bears watching, even if it dosen't Move the Market. As it shows the perception of short term rates over long. It got its start when Yellen dropped the 6 months line and the Dots got shown.

Joe ... I think there is more to be alert about in the price of Brent
The Chinese (and Russia) are trying to dump their USD holdings and buy things , China is loading up crude (Brent you ll want to note) at a rate of an extra 1mil barrels of oil everyday beyond what they need .. since the beginning of April
Can you think of what it would take make Brent go to - say - $150?

JP - a fair amount of complacency in the punditry and elites that EU voting is not dispositive of the national election outcomes -- but politics like economics is contextual not scientific so you need to know the environment as it is NOW not prior years (the dangers of using GOOD analogies) // folks vote local and personal issues in national elections but EU is now affecting some folks on a personal and local level (austerity) -- national govvies that miss that point are more likely to be removed (professionals know that "doing the Right Thing" is not usually conducive to re-election)

As national politicians in Europe look out to the elections next year and in 2016 there is immediate concern for those operating in coalitions - they must hang together or hang separately // the usual corrective action by parties in power is restricted by "austerity" concerns - notably in Greece and Ireland but also in France as Hollande must decide whether set a "bad" example or toe the line
Defections in coalitions are common as individual politicians assess the election results on a personal level -- Greece may be the first to see some pols changing horses

Reposting my weekend video update.
1.3650 is most important for me although Friday's high was 1.3656. Range sill small (33 pips) but feels like more (life in a low volatility market). 1.3650 caps upside today unless market sniffs out more stops?
Note chatter of good bids at 1,36.
Last leg was about 120 pips, 38.2% = 1.3660.

EUR/USD - 1.3638
The single currency fell to a fresh 3-month low at 1.3615 in New Zealand morning, suggesting erratic decline from May's 2-1/2 year peak at 1.3995 to retrace medium term upmove from 1.2042 (Jul 2012) remains in progress and further weakness to 1.3477 support is likely, however, strong support at 1.3295 is expected to remain intact.
On the upside, only a breach of 1.3734 resistance would signal a temporary low is made and yield rebound to 1.3771/75 res, however, 1.3812 (previous support, now resistance) would cap upside.
