| Action Insight Daily Report | Euro Decline Continues, Focus on UK GDP Euro extends yesterday's decline and makes new 2010 low against dollar and new record low against Aussie today. Greece remains the center of focus as Moody's downgraded Greece’s credit rating one notch to A3, just four grades above junk. CDS also climbed to record high of 644bps while yield on Greek 10 year bonds jumped 81 bps to 8.97%. There are speculations that Greece is seeking a bridge loan for the $11.b bonds come due next month. G20 officials are expected to discuss the Greece situation in the meeting that starts today and US and Japan are called on by Europe to voice support for Greece. In any case, Greece bond yields and CDS will likely continue to rise until there's result from the meeting between EU/IMF on the rescue and Euro will remain under pressure. German Ifo will be released today but is not expected to provide much support to the common currency.

Although the severe selloff (over -30%) from November 2007 ended in March 2009, rebound of the pound was fragile and a new round of selling appeared to have begun in recent months. Recovery, growth and budget deficits are investors' major concerns. Changes are what all British people are looking for. Therefore, election of a new government gives the market and the citizens a beam of hope.

Trade Idea: USD/CHF - Buy At 1.0765 Dollar's rally after breaking indicated resistance at 1.0786 confirms the entire correction from 1.0899 top has ended at 1.0435 earlier and bullishness remains for the upmove from 2009 low of 0.9910 to resume for retest of said resistance at 1.0899, break there would extend gain towards 1.0939 (50% Fibonacci retracement of 1.1967-0.9910) but near term overbought condition should limit upside and reckon 1.1000 would hold from here. Full Report Here... | | Featured Technical Report | Market Highlights | USD/CHF Daily Outlook Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.0700; (P) 1.0752; (R1) 1.0830; More. USD/CHF's rally extends further to a high as 1.0849 so far today and intraday bias remains on the upside for 1.0897 resistance. The strong break of 1.0785 support affirms our view that correction from 1.0897 is already completed with three waves down to 1.0434. Decisive break of 1.0897 will confirm that whole medium term rise from 0.9916 has resumed and should then target 100% projection of 1.0131 to 1.0897 from 1.0434 at 1.1200 next. On the downside, below 1.0759 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral first. But downside should be contained by 4 hours 55 EMA (now at 1.0672) and bring rally resumption. Read more...
