Mid-Day Report: Euro Jumps as ECB Speculations Resurfaced, Spanish Yield Dropped Sharply in Auction

Euro lead other major currencies higher against dollar and yen as talk of ECB's plan of bond buying to cap yields resurfaced. It started from a Der Spiegel report over the weekend and was denied by ECB yesterday. But the UK Daily Telegraph said today that it could confirm that ECB is examining such plans. In addition, Spain managed to sell short term debts at yields that's much lower than prior auction last month. EUR 4.5b in 12- and 18-bills were sold today, meeting the maximum target. Yield on 12-month bills dropped to 3.070%, comparing with July's 3.918%. Yield on 18-month bills dropped to 3.335%, comparing to 4.242% in July. EUR/USD breached near term resistance of 1.2443 and resumed recent rally from 1.2042.

Featured Technical Report

USD/CHF Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9701; (P) 0.9737; (R1) 0.9775; More...

USD/CHF drops to as low as 0.9633 in early US session. The break of 0.9656 confirmed resumption of decline from 0.9971 short term top. Intraday bias is back on the downside and current fall should target 38.2% retracement of 0.8930 to 0.9971 at 0.9573 first. Break will have further bearish implication and should target 0.9420 key near term support level. On the upside, above 0.9697 minor resistance will turn bias neutral and bring consolidations. But recovery should be limited below 0.9799 resistance and bring another fall.

RBA Minutes Gave No Hint On The Next Rate Decision

The RBA's minutes for the August meeting contained few surprises, as most of the issues were covered in the RBA quarterly Statement on Policy which was released several days after the August meeting. The minutes confirmed that the RBA acknowledged the peak in mining capex and the improvement in the outlook for housing construction from 2H2012. While keeping the cash rate unchanged at 3.5%, policymakers delivered no hints on the next move.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea Update: USD/CHF – Sell at 0.9700

As dollar has remained under pressure after breaking indicated support area at 0.9697-0.9701 and then recent low of 0.9656, adding credence to our view that the correction has ended and early decline from 0.9972 top has resumed for weakness to 0.9620 and then 0.9600 but reckon 0.9570 would hold from here due to near term oversold condition.

Trade Idea: EUR/GBP – Turn long at 0.7865

As the single currency has staged a strong rebound after finding renewed buying interest at 0.7833 yesterday, suggesting as long as this level holds, consolidation with mild upside bias is seen for another rise towards resistance at 0.7963 but break there is needed to retain bullishness and signal a temporary low is formed at 0.7756 (wave (v) bottom), bring a stronger retracement of recent decline towards 0.8000-05.
