1.3647 (recent low) and 1.3635 (200 day mva) at risk as long as below 1.3678-80 much depends on whether there is an invisible hand defending 1.3645

EUR/USD is back below daily 144 ema (1.3678) that has been a long term support (two dips below last week but snapped back to close above) - trade 3 strikes and you're out for a close below - target 1.3546, the level of daily 233 ema and weekly 55 ema EUR/GBP close at these levels would be lowest since Dec 2012 -- has to be a factor for MPC but sell this for s/t this week target .8014

The sensitivity of the Nikkei to the USDJPY should not be overlooked. The government tends to be a bit slow to act, but expect some push-back from Tokyo if the USDJPY decides to test the psychological 100.00 line.

Interesting, The S&P futures came down to 101.00 in USDJPY on my overlay chart. At that point, USDJPY popped above 101.00 and the S&P traded higher. Now the two are back in their "normal" lock-step. Hard to figure. Its like these markets are just a succession of set-ups?

Kal, there should be sellers at 1.37. I am more interested in your 10 day call.

FWIW USDJPY 200-day average now 101.28 spot USDJPY now BELOW all moving averages 5 thru 200 days. Price behavior supportive of chatter that some central banks have been transferring funds out of EUR and into JPY. Perhaps this is anticipation of negative EZ interest rates in just over two weeks?

Trading spot using crosses for a clue (example) Market is shunning the EUR ahead of the ECB and AUD is becoming suspect but market is not rushing into USD - GBP and JPY are the cross beneficiaries. When those currencies find support vs. the USD, the weaklings tend to get hit.

After USDJPY dipped below 101.00 (currently holding as resistance) , the S&P followed the pair lower but since has been working steadily higher. This has set up a clear divergence between the two and perhaps a tug-o-war? The DOW and S&P mini futures are both higher. Note also the 1.3700 level in EURUSD remains magnetic. The GBP is up vs. the EUR following blow-out (strong) UK retail sales data earlier. In the current environment, we have wonder how far the GBP can diverge from the EUR?
