Review of Central Bank Meetings of the Week

ECB - As expected, the ECB also left the main refinancing rate unchanged at 1.0%. President Draghi, however, delivered a less dovish monetary stance at the policy statement as well as at the press conference, with the focus on upside risks to inflation.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea Update: GBP/USD – Stand aside

Although cable has retreated after rising to 1.5834 yesterday and marginal weakness below intra-day support at 1.5751 cannot be ruled out, reckon downside would be limited to 1.5720-25 and support at 1.5698 should hold, bring another rebound later. A break of said resistance at 1.5834 would bring a stronger retracement of recent decline from 1.5993 top towards 1.5880-84 (61.8% Fibonacci retracement of 1.5993-1.5698 and previous resistance)

Trade Idea: EUR/JPY – Buy at 107.25

Although euro has retreated after rising to 108.65 today, the strong rebound from 105.65 suggests correction from 109.95 has possibly ended there and consolidation with upside bias is seen, break of said resistance would extend gain to indicated resistance at 108.74 but break there is needed to add credence to this view and bring further gain to 109.00 later.
