AceTraderFx May 14: Intra-Day News and Views (USD/JPY) & data to be released today

Intra-day Market Moving News and Views

14 May 2015 02:41GMT

USD/JPY- ...... Although dlr recovered in NY afternoon following intra-day sharp selloff to a near 2-week low of 119.03 after release of weaker-than-expected U.S. retail sales data, renewed selling at 119.34 capped gain in Tokyo morning on Thursday and pressured price down to 119.16.

Looks like dlr would trade above 119.03 in Asian morning due to demand by Japanese importers.

As recent weak U.S. data have raised concerns over the strength of the country's recovery and in turn dampened expectations for a rate hike from the Fed in Q2, selling dlr on recovery is recommended.

However, investors shoukd take profit on next decline as key support at 118.33 (reaction low from 2015 at 122.03 in March) should remain intact this week.

Looking ahead, investors should pay attention to the release of U.S. weekly jobless claims report at 12:30GMT.

Market is looking for number of Americans filing new claims for unemployment benefits to increase 10K to 275K last week but still near April's15-year low at 262K.

At present, offers are tipped at 119.40-50 and more at 119.65/70 with mixture of offers and stops at 119.90-120.00.

On the downside, bids are placed at 119.00-118.90 and around 118.80 with buying interest from various accounts at 118.60-40 region.

Thursdaywill see the release of U.K. RICS housing survey, Japan's foreign bond investment, New Zealand's RBNZ offshore holdings and Canada's new housing price index. Besides, investors are focusing on the release of U.S. GDP revision later this month. Economists estimate the economy shrank at a 0.8 percent pace.

USD/JPY - 119.17

Although dollar's breach of yesterday's low at 119.03 in European morning signals decline from last week's peak at 120.51 has resumed and further choppy trading inside early 8-week long broad range of 122.03-118.33 would continue with downside bias, April's bottom at 118.50 should remain intact today due to near term loss of momentum and yield rebound later.

On the upside, only a move back above 119.47 (Monday's low in NZ, now resistance) would indicate a temporary low has been made and bring subsequent gain to 119.71 and then 119.97/03.

EUR/USD - 1.1402

Euro's rally above last Thursday's high of 1.1392 to a fresh near 3-month peak at 1.1445 yesterday signals erratic up move from March's 12-year trough at 1.0457 to retrace long-term downtrend has resumed and further gain to daily chart resistance at 1.1450 and then 1.1500 would be seen after consolidation.

On the downside, only a failure to penetrate 1.1445 and then move back below support at 1.1340/44 would indicate a temporary top is made and risk retracement towards 1.1279 (Tuesday high, now support) before rebound occurs.

Update Time: 18 May 2015 08:14 GMT

USD/JPY - 119.72

Despite dollar's retreat from 119.93 to 119.20 in New York last Friday after release of soft U.S. economic data, intra-day rebound on renewed broad-based strength in the greenback suggests further choppy trading inside recent early 8-week long broad range of 122.03-118.33.

Would continue and upside bias is seen for a re-test of 119.93, break would extend erratic rise from last Thursday's 2-week trough at 118.88 to 120.03 and then 120.27 but daily resistance at 120.51 should remain intact.

On the downside, only below 119.20/27 would dampen this mildly bullish scenario and shift risk to downside for subsequent weakness towards 118.88.

DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK

Update Time: 19 May 2015 00:47 GMT

EUR/USD - 1.1318

Euro's sell off from 1.1447 to 1.1229 on Monday signals erratic upmove from March's 12-year trough at 1.0457 has made a temporary top at last Friday's fresh 3-month peak at 1.1467 and as long as 1.1366/70 holds.

Choppy trading with downside bias remains for another corrective fall to 1.1255/65 later, however, reckon support at 1.1202 (last Wednesday low) would contain weakness and bring rebound later.

On the upside, only a move back above 1.1420/27 would indicate correction over instead, yield gain to 1.1447 and then re-test of 1.1467.
