Daily Report: Manufacturing Data Boost Risk Appetite as 2012 Starts

Solid manufacturing data from China and Australia gives risk appetite a boost as the year 2012 starts. New Zealand dollar and Australian dollar gain most broadly while Aussie makes another record high against Euro. The official China Manufacturing PMI released over the weekend climbed back to expansion level of 50.3 in December. The dip to contraction region below 50, at 49 in November seemed to be brief so far and the manufacturing industry is steady ahead. Improvement across the components was also broadly based. Details suggested that the slowdown in domestic demand has stabilized with 'new order' gaining 0.9 points to 49.5 and 'new export order' rising to 49.4 from 47.1 in November. Meanwhile, the 'overstock order' gained modestly to 46.0 in December from 45.7 in November. Note that these three readings remained in contraction but the improvements signaled stabilization in domestic demand. Meanwhile, China's non-manufacturing PMI also rose impressively from 49.7 to 56.0 in December.

USD index 2012 Elliott Wave Forecast

Despite falling to as low as 72.70 in H1 2011, dollar index found good support there and staged a rebound from there back to the opening level of 2011, suggesting the major downtrend is not ready to resume yet and wave IV correction is still unfolding as a complex correction. We are keeping our preferred count that a major (A)-(B)-(C) wave has commenced since 1980s with (A) wave ended at 78.19 in 1992, followed by a 3-legged wave (B) ended at 121.02 in 2001 and 5-waver wave (C) is unfolding with wave III ended at 70.70 in 2008.

Orders and Options Watch

European Session: Orders and Options Watch

EUR: The single currency rebounded in part due to the release of better-than-expected data from eurozone and Germany and also on dollar’s broad-based weakness as traders await the meeting between French and German leaders, Sarkozy and Merkel, euro jumped from day’s low of 1.2930-33 to as high as 1.2990 and mixture of offers (by model funds) and stops at 1.3000 is now in focus, however, more selling interest should emerge around 1.3050-60 with stops building up above 1.3090-00. On the downside, bids from same parties are tipped at 1.2950 and 1.2930 with some stops placed below 1.2930 with bigger stops building up below 1.2900 but decent bids from European names are noted further out from 1.2880 down to 1.2850. Traders are also anticipating the release of German employment data at 08:55GMT.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea: USD/JPY – Buy at 76.40

Although the greenback has remained under pressure and recent decline may extend weakness to previous support at 76.58, loss of downward momentum should prevent sharp fall below 76.50 (61.8% projection of 78.04-76.90 measuring from 77.20) and bring a rebound later today. Above intra-day resistance at 76.97 would bring test of 77.17-20 (current level of the Ichimoku cloud bottom and previous resistance)
