Second round of first line data is over, and despite EUR remains reluctant to give up the greenback stands as the winner again, with the EUR/USD reaching a lower low daily basis, this time at 1.3192. The pair is far however from having established a trend, trading back above 1.3230, base of these last days range. The hourly chart shows a bearish tone, with 20 SMA heading lower above current price and indicators standing in negative territory, but bigger time frames maintain a neutral stance. Seems market players will wait for challenge 3 on Friday and US employment figure, to decide what to do with the pair. 



Support levels: 1.3230 1.3190 1.3140



Resistance levels: 1.3295 1.3340 1.3380

The GBP/USD eases from a high of 1.5241 posted right after the BOE. The upward tick was supported by better than expected PMI in the UK, while no statement from Carney left doors opened for further tips next week, with the inflation report. The pair stands around 1.5200, holding above its 20 SMA and with indicators losing upward potential but still in positive territory, keeping the downside limited. In the 4 hours chart however, the technical picture is bearish with price below 20 SMA and indicators well below their midlines. 



Support levels: 1.5150 1.5110 15080



Resistance levels:  1.5230 1.5270 1.5310

y


USD/JPY surged during the Asian session, as Nikkei advanced strongly and the pair is finding further upward momentum on positive US data, with PMI above expected and unemployment claims at 4 years lows. The hourly chart shows price now struggling to overcome 200 SMA, while indicators stand in overbought territory. Price stands also above 100 DMA around 98.45, so a daily close above it will point for further upside towards strong 100.00 area. 



Support levels: 98.45 98.00 97.60



Resistance levels: 99.20 99.50 99.85
