MNI European Morning FX Technical Analysis
By Ian Stannard
LONDON (MNI) - MNI European Morning FX Technical Analysis
DOLLAR-CANADA: TECHS: Downtrend Intact Below 1.3039. USDCAD bounced off of
its descending channel support level on Friday, but remains within its
downtrend. Bulls will need a break above Friday's high of 1.3039 to suggest a
base is forming, and a move above 1.3096 to shift the outlook bullish. On the
downside, channel support comes in at 1.2955, just ahead of the long term up
trendline support from January at 1.2931. A break below here would trigger a
more significant bearish signal, bringing the 1.2819 area in to play.

AUSSIE TECHS: Range Trading Continues AUDUSD has edged lower from Friday's
highs of 0.7412 and this will act as the first line of resistance, albeit with
the clearly defined larger range. A sustained move above here would restore the
bullish picture, shifting the focus to the upper end of the recent trading
range, where the next layers of resistance are formed at 0.7466/86. Holding
above 0.7370 is now required to maintained the renewed positive momentum, while
failure risks a slip back to the lower end of the range and major trendline
support at 0.7324.

EURO-YEN TECHS: Targeting 127.15 The break below the key 55-DMA support
level on Friday, which now sits at 129.17, has led to further chart damage and
bulls will need to recovery this level to shift the short-term outlook back to
neutral. The EURJPY decline has already extended below the previous recent low
at 129.13, opening the way for the developing downtrend to be extended towards
127.15 initially. The May 29 lows all the way down at 124.62 would come into
play on a break below 127.15.

DOLLAR-YEN TECHS: Uptrend Remains Intact For Now Friday's losses have
shifted the short-term picture neutral, albeit within the broader bullish trend.
Channel support on intraday charts comes in at 111.09, and bears need a break
below this level and the 55-DMA at110.67 to shift the medium-term outlook
bearish. On the upside, gains back above 111.86 are now needed to refresh the
bullish picture suggesting a retest of Wednesday's highs at 112.15.

EURO-STERLING TECHS: Above 0.8958 Needed To Confirm Bullish Continuation
EURGBP continues to trade in a tight contracting range, albeit slight downward
trajectory from the August 2 highs. Bulls need a break above these highs at
0.8958, which also marks downtrend resistance from the June 20 peak, to confirm
the continuation of the larger bullish trend. On the downside, bears need to
break back below the bottom of the ascending channel, which comes in at 0.8880,
to shift the short-term outlook back to neutral, and a close below 0.8855 to
turn the outlook bearish.

CABLE TECHS: Rally Fails To Alter Bearish Picture GBPUSD continues to hover
around the 1.30 level after Friday's rally failed to overcome any meaningful
resistance levels, suggesting focus will remain to the downside in the coming
week. Indeed, failure to regain the 1.3064 level will leave the bearish picture
in place suggesting a retest of the 1.2974 and 1.2958 lows. Below here the lower
boundary of the major descending channel at 1.2915 is likely to be targeted.

EURO-DOLLAR TECHS: Approaching Range Lows EURUSD remains below the former
triangle support, now trendline resistance at 1.1602, with Friday's rally
failing to break back into the previous range. The next downside target will be
1.1575, but the June 21 lows at 1.1509 are looking increasingly likely to be
revisited in the near term. A break below here would suggest further losses as
the long term downtrend resumes. The bulls will need to stage a recovery through
1.1656 to stabilise the near-term outlook.
