A very busy week ahead

USD
  • The Dollar was underpinned overnight, going into the European session, after Equity futures gaped lower led by US Troops killed in Jordan and a Tanker was hit in the red sea.
  • Equities have since recovered during the early European session, and the Dollar has also pared gains to trade mixed against G10s.
  • Best performers are NZD, AUD, CHF and Yen in that order, while the SEK and the EUR are leaning in the red.
  • Lower US Yields has kept the USDJPY close to its traded low of 147.71, now trading at 147.83.
  • The EUR is offered in G10 so far today, as German Yield drifts lower, and Dovish ECB speakers have kept the lid on the EUR.
  • Besides the SEK, which is down a small 0.06%, the EUR trades in the red versus all the majors.
  • Some will look at 1.0813 in EURUSD, Friday's low for support, but better is seen at 1.0793 50.0% retracement of the Oct - Dec bull leg.
  • Looking ahead, there's no notable data for the session, but this week will be the busiest week so far this year, with Data, Risk Events (CBs), Earnings, Month End and supply.
