FX: Relatively quiet ahead of ECB and BoJ: By Mary McNamara

FX has been relatively quiet ahead of the ECB and BoJ rate updates scheduled for later in the week. The miss with NZD CPI got things moving a bit just now though. There are the RBA Monetary Policy Meeting Minutes, EUR German ZEW Economic Sentiment, GBP CPI & a BoE Carney speech plus NZD GDT Price Index data to monitor today.

USDX: trying to hold above a recent support trend line and managing to do so for now. I’d expect a test, at least, of the broken 95.50 anyway.

Trend line breakout trades:

EUR/NZD: there was a bit of a breakout that started yesterday but this has been helped along just now by NZD CPI to the tune of 160 pips:
