EUR/USD higher in early Europe after rising on Friday but still gets no love from ECB

The EUR/USD opened higher the week after having dropped for a second week in a row. Elaborating on, the single currency managed to have a “green” day on Friday due to dismal NFP data, but still closed the week lower against the greenback for a second consecutive week, partly on Draghi’s more than expected dovish stance. ECB Draghi seems to remain very cautious about the Euro zone return to growth and not much enthusiastic about recovery in the Euro land. On the opposite side, despite the dismal NFP, the consensus in the market is for the Fed to announce the commencement of gradual tapering in the meeting of 17th and 18th of September. Traders should bear into consideration the Sentix Investor Confidence which will be released at 8.30 GMT hours and a further improvement in sentiment is anticipated.

As long as the view for tapering remains “on”, any potential EUR/USD rallies will be well capped. Despite the great disappointment on Friday’s NFP release, hints from the Fed points to tapering, even in a small gradual scale such as of $15bililion/$20 billion per month. What’s more, the power-horse of Europe as well depicted in the industrial figures released last week, isn’t strong enough. There are political problems in coalition forces in Italy, a third bailout package in Greece seems inevitable and there is also political uncertainty in Cyprus.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Further positive bias development would face next resistive measure at 1.3190 (R1).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, our bearish expectations remain intact below the key support level at 1.3155 (S1). Price penetration below it would allow further declines towards to lower targets at 1.3134 (S2) and 1.3112 (S3).

EUR/USD up around 1.3270 on China

The shared currency is extending its ascent on Tuesday, lifting the EUR/USD to the area of 1.3270 on upbeat tone from the Chinese economy.China continues to be the main driver for the risk appetite trends in the first half of the week, after Industrial Production, Retail Sales and Urban Investment figures all surpassed expectations during August, giving extra oxygen to the risk-associated assets in general. In the opinion of Westpac Global Strategy Group, “The 55, 100 and 200 day moving averages have converged in the 1.3140-90 range, with the runup to 1.34 an increasingly distant memory. ECB president Draghi’s mood last week was gloomier than expected, adding to our bias to sell into the 1.32-1.33 region. However, US data has been too soft to inspire much fresh USD buying, leaving 1.3100 intact for now”.

At the moment the pair is gaining 0.09% at 1.3268 with the next resistance at 1.3279 (Kijun Line) ahead of 1.3298 (low Aug.22) and then 1.3322 (low Aug.27). On the downside, a break below 1.3157 (low Sep.9) would target 1.3104 (50% of 1.2755-1.3453) en route to 1.3089 (low Jul.19).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Current price setup might suggest retracement formation in near term perspective, however, if the price get acceleration on the upside and manages to surpass our resistive measure at 1.3281 (R1), we would suggest next targets at 1.3297 (R2) and 1.3313 (R3). Downwards scenario: Clearance of our support at 1.3248 (S1) is required to determine negative intraday bias and enable lower target at 1.3230 (S2) and then any further market depreciation would suggest final target at 1.3213 (S3).

Obama puts Syrian action on hold while diplomacy pursued

President Obama addressed the American people on the Syrian conflict, and where the U.S. goes from here, after headlines for a diplomatic resolution inundated media outlets on Tuesday. Barack Obama started the speech with a strong case for a ‘yes’ vote in Congress, saying "We know Asssad's government was responsible" Iran would be emboldened.... "This is not a world we should accept'' , although making clear that the U.S. "will not put American boots on the ground in Syria."

As the speech progressed, a more conciliatory Obama emerged, saying that after the Russian proposal to place under international control Syria's alleged chemical weapons - which Assad's government agreed to -, he asked Congress to postpone a vote on Syria action while diplomacy is pursued, adding that Assa's initiative has the potential to remove weapons without use of force. Obama also said: "Over the last few days we’ve seen some encouraging signs, in part because of the threat of military action." Since Obama was specific about the slim chances of an immediate attack, the speech supports the recent bid on risk assets.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Possible upwards extension above the resistance level at 1.3266 (R1) is liable to commence medium-term bullish structure. Important fractal levels offers next targets at 1.3282 (R2) and 1.3298 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the moving averages our short-term outlook would be negative. Possible extension lower the 1.3240 (S1) is being able to drive market price towards to initial supports at 1.3226 (S2) and 1.3211 (S3).

Barroso calls for quick implementation of Eurozone banking union

Europe is on a road to recovery, but efforts must still be made to prop it up, president of the European Commission José Manuel Barroso said on Wednesday, delivering the annual State of the Union speech. He listed unemployment as the the most burning issue to solve, as its current level is “economically unsustainable, politically untenable and socially unacceptable.” Speaking at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, Barroso pointed to the recent improvements in the European financial markets as well as the better situation in Greece. “For Europe, recovery is within sight. Let's not overestimate the progress, but neither should we underestimate what has been done,” he said.

He called for a quicker implementation of the Eurozone banking union, which would help boost growth and employment. Finalizing discussions on the next EU budget was also listed as a top priority. Furthermore, Barroso stressed the need for a tighter political union, suggesting that “Europe must focus on where it can add most value. It needs to be big on big things and smaller on smaller things.” The European Commission president also referred to the chemical attack in Syria, which the EU condemns but still hopes to see the a conflict resolved through a negotiated settlement.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: On the upside potential is seen for a break above the resistance at 1.3325 (R1). In such case we would suggest next target at 1.3339 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistance at 1.3354 (R3). Downwards scenario: Instrument looks overbought and we expect to see some consolidation pattern ahead. Risk of possible price regress is seen below the support level at 1.3299 (S1). Break here would suggest lower targets at 1.3283 (S2) and 1.3268 (S3) in potential.

Downwards scenario: Medium term bias is clearly positive however we expect recovery action if the price manages to overcome key supportive bastion at 1.5800 (S1). In such case we would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5775 (S2) and 1.5748 (S3).

Downwards scenario: Failure to establish corrective structure might lead to further downtrend evolvement later on today. Penetration below the support at 99.33 (S1) would suggest next intraday targets at 99.14 (S2) and 98.96 (S3) in perspective.

Countdown for QE taper fireworks is on!

The judgment day for the Fed, Sept 17, is nearing, and the market is preparing accordingly for what may represent the most important monetary policy decision taken in years, as the start of QE taper gets kick-started. Even if the next FOMC meeting comes on the back of a rather disappointing NFP past Friday, the communication strategy carried out by Chairman Ben Bernanke & Co. so far suggest that some sort of light taper should be expected, or else the sell-off in the USD might be one that make headlines all over the world. According to Adam Button, Editor at Forexlive, "The market has settled on $10 billion as the most-likely size for the Fed’s taper next week", anticipating that "larger and the dollar will rally hard, smaller and it will fall."

Meanwhile, Treasury traders seem to be perceive the taper being priced in less than 10bln, which makes a bullish case for a stronger USD for those supporting odds for a more aggressive taper. If this scenario happens to be true, some long USD plays vs other G10 currencies such as the NZD, EUR or even the CAD, might be a great play based on this assumption. As Button notes: "I think it’s clear that a taper is coming but the Fed could still change its mind on the size and the messages that accompany it. Two reports in the days ahead could change their thinking: retail sales on Friday and the CPI on Monday."

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Possibility of market strengthening is seen above the immediate resistive barrier at 1.3286 (R1). Clearance here would suggest next interim target at 1.3302 (R2) and then final aim locates at 1.3317 (R3). Downwards scenario: Further downside extension might face next supportive barrier at 1.3256 (S1). Clearance here is required to open the way towards to interim target at 1.3240 (S2) and any further price regress would then be targeting 1.3225 (S3).

Upwards scenario: GBPUSD tested negative side recently, however we see potential to test resistive barrier at 1.5812 (R1) later on today. Successful penetration above that level would suggest next intraday targets at 1.5838 (R2) and 1.5864 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: In terms of technical levels, risk of price depreciation is seen below the support level at 1.5775 (S1). Loss here would suggest to monitor marks at 1.5750 (S2) and 1.5725 (S3) as possible intraday targets.

Upwards scenario: Further price appreciation is a likely scenario for today according to the technical readings.

Break here is required to enable downside expansion towards to our intraday targets at 99.54 (S2) and 99.36 (S3) in potential.

The Fed to maintain forward guidance with firm tone, says Hilsenrath

The Federal Reserve is struggling to justify extending forward guidance as part of its strategy to maintain the recovery path according to Fedwatcher Jon Hilsenrath in his latest article on the FOMC policy meeting. The FOMC is expected to publish its interest rate and monetary policy decision on Wednesday September 18 and market is widely expecting the Fed to start its cut in the bond buying program. The Fedwatcher affirmed in his piece that "Federal Reserve officials face a communication challenge explaining their interest-rate plans when they gather for a policy meeting this week."

Their challenge is "how to justify the low interest-rate plan when their own estimates suggest an economy regaining its health." According to Hilsenrath, Fed forecasts could show "rates rising but still low" by 2016. The Fed also expects economy at "full employment" by the same year. The decision on QE tapering the $85 billion-a-month bond-buying program is now a close call "on whether to start pulling back on the QE." The Fed is now changing its emphasis from bond buying to the "low-rate pledge."

The Fed decides to maintain the status quo; No taper

The Federal Reserve has decided to maintain its interest rate unchanged at 0.25%. Same story with the bond buying pace at $85Bn as officials need more information that the economy is growing at a sustainable pace. According to a recent press release, the Fed affirms that the pace of bond purchases depends on the economic outlook. The inflation is still low, financial market conditions are tight while the fiscal retrenchment could be damaging, so the FOMC needs more signs of progress.

"Accordingly, the Committee decided to continue purchasing additional agency mortgage-backed securities at a pace of $40 billion per month and longer-term Treasury securities at a pace of $45 billion per month." The Fed has lowered its growth expectations and now officials forecast the US GDP to slowdown in 2016 to 2.5%-3.3% range, from 3.0%-3.5% in 2014. They see 2013 to show a 2.0%-2.3% growth in the United States. The unemployment rate is expected to finish the year around 7.2%-7.3% and to decline to 6.5%-6.8% in 2014, 5.8%-6.2% in 2015 and 5.4%-5.9% in 2016.

Asset purchase schemes remaining static.

As the tide went out on the shock decision by the FOMC regarding their asset purchase schemes remaining static, the markets in the USA appeared to pause for thought in Thursday's trading sessions. Looking at high impact news events the improved unemployment data was discounted given the fact that two states, including California, failed to proved jobs data as their computer systems were still off grid. Better news came in the form of house sales reaching a recent high, whilst the Philly Fed number came in off the scale in terms of positivity. The improved housing market news was added to by costs for U.S. home buyers predicted to fall from the highest level in two years after the Federal Reserve increased expectations that it will keep short-term interest rates at about zero percent. Rates on 30-year mortgages reached 4.93 percent in the week ended Sept 6th, the highest level seen since April 2011 and up from a record low of 3.57 percent in December, according to Mortgage Bankers Association data. The rate declined to 4.86 percent last week. Treasuries dropped the day after experiencing the biggest rally in two years as improved economic conditions made investors more certain that the Federal Reserve’s next move will be to reduce monetary stimulus. The 10-year yield rose six basis points or 0.06 percentage point to 2.75 percent late in the New York session. The price of the 2.5 percent note maturing in August 2023 dropped 17/32, or, $5.31 per $1,000 face value, to 97 26/32. The yield slid 16 basis points on Wednesday, the biggest decline since Oct 31st 2011.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis

Upwards scenario: Next hurdle that limit uptrend development lies at 1.3569 (R1). If the break occurs here we would suggest next attractive point at 1.3598 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to final resistance at 1.3628 (R3). Downwards scenario: We placed our support level right below the local low at 1.3507 (S1). Clearance here is liable to open way towards to our interim target at 1.3474 (S2) and then might expose final aim at 1.3440 (S3).

Downwards scenario: Penetration below the support level at 99.10 (S1) might maintain a negative tone in near term perspective. In such case we would suggest next supportive measures at 98.87 (S2) and 98.64 (S3) as possible retracement targets.
