EURO-DOLLAR: Euro opened in Asia at $1.1808 toward the upper side of yesterday's

$1.1739 to $1.1825 range, where uncertainties over the Trump tax plan weighed on

the greenback, comments from Catalan leader Puigdemont, who proposed that

parliament suspends the declaration of independence and called for more dialogue

with Spain helped further to underpin the Euro. In the absence for any

significant economic data or scheduled events in Asia, local traders expect

consolidation ahead of the European open. Resistance lies at $1.1830, which

marks the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement on the $1.2092 to $1.1670 decline, while

hourly support is seen in the mid-$1.1790's.
