Euro Supported by Improving Investor Confidence; USD, JPY and CHF Mildly Lower

Dollar, Yen and Swiss Franc turned slightly weaker in quiet markets today. Euro is supported by better than expected investor sentiment data, while Sterling also recovers. New Zealand Dollar is also trading higher but Australian and Canadian Dollar are lagging behind. Gold is back above 1800 handle but has yet to break through 1833 key resistance level. WTI oil is range bound at around 82. Bitcoin is now trying to resume up trend for new record.

Technically a focus is now on 1.0602 minor resistance in EUR/CHF and break there will indicate short term bottoming, to be followed by stronger rebound. EUR/USD and GBP/USD are also recovering notably. Break of 1.1615and 1.3604 respectively will likely bring stronger rebound in both pairs.

EUR/USD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.1530; (P) 1.1551; (R1) 1.1589; More...

EUR/USD's recovery from 1.1512 continues today but outlook is unchanged. Intraday bias stays neutral first. Further decline is in favor as long as 1.1615 minor resistance holds. Break of 1.1512 will extend the pattern from 1.2348 to 61.8% projection of 1.1908 to 1.1523 from 1.1691 at 1.1453. Break will pave the way to 100% projection at 1.1306. On the upside, though, above 1.1615 minor resistance will dampen the bearish case and turn bias back to the upside for 1.1691 resistance.
