EURO-DOLLAR: Position adjustments, ahead of Thursday's ECB meeting, saw EUR/USD

break under $1.1200 in Asian trade, the move easily moving through its Jul9 low

of $1.1193 to $1.1189 ahead of the European open. Rate continues to rest heavy

on this level, with next support seen into the Jun18 low of $1.1181. MNI sources

have suggested the ECB will add an easing bias to their forward guidance, to

make clear that its next move in interest rates will be down. This view is being

countered in part by speculation for the size of the FOMC rate cut next week,

market split between 25bp and 50bp. 

- Support $1.1181-79 (Jun18 low/76.4% 1.1107-1.1412) ahead of $1.1155/50.

Resistance $1.1200/10, $1.1225/30.
