EURO-DOLLAR: Settles around $1.1795 as market awaits US influence. Rate earlier

made shows above $1.1800, extending the intraday high to $1.1809, but headwind

resistance was noted. Despite this counter the rate didn't pull back too far and

seen keeping options open for a further push higher. Attention now turns to US

CPI to provide directional impetus, market median for 0.2%mm for both headline

and core, the latter holding the main interest. Result will not affect

Wednesday's FOMC decision but could be a pointer to future rate path into 2019,

traders suggest. Initial resistance noted at Monday's highs of $1.1814-21 ahead

of stronger resistance from $1.1830 through to $1.1850. Support seen back at

$1.1755 ahead of the earlier Asian low of $1.1841.
