The Euro retraced to test its new resistance level at $1.23. Respect would confirm a decline  to test the 2010 low at $1.19*. Declining 63-day Twiggs Momentum continues to signal a strong down-trend. Breach of the 2010 low would become likely if the ECB indicated an intention to directly or indirectly purchase government bonds — and would suggest long-term weakness.

Pound Sterling’s up-trend against the Euro is accelerating, with steep advances followed by short corrections. Rising 63-day Twiggs Momentum confirms. Target for the current advance is €1.295*.

Canada’s Loonie continues to weaken against the Aussie Dollar but long-term bullish divergence on 63-day Twiggs Momentum (and breach of the descending trendline) warns of reversal to an up-trend. Breakout above parity would confirm.

Canadian Loonie/Aussie Dollar

The Aussie Dollar broke resistance at $1.03 USD and is headed for a test of $1.05*. Recovery of 63-day Twiggs Momentum above zero would suggest a primary up-trend, but we first need a correction to form a higher low (trough).

The Aussie Dollar is testing resistance at R8.50 South African Rand after respecting support at R8.30. Breakout would offer a target of R8.70*.

The Australian Dollar/Japanese Yen is a good reflection of global risk tolerance. Euphoric highs of 2007  were followed by blind panic in 2008/2009 before settling into a mid-range oscillation between ¥72 and ¥90 — suitable for range traders. The higher low in 2012 reflects a more bullish stance but we are a long way from breakout above ¥90. 63-Day Twiggs Momentum oscillating around zero mirrors the uncertainty.

The Euro broke medium-term support at $1.23, signaling a test of the 2010 low at $1.19/$1.20. Declining 63-day Twiggs Momentum warns of a strong down-trend. Breach of the 2010 low becomes likely if the ECB had to indicate an intention to directly or indirectly purchase government bonds — and would suggest a long-term decline.

Euro/USD

Pound Sterling broke through €1.26 against the Euro and is now retracing to test the new support level. Rising 63-day Twiggs Momentum indicates an accelerating up-trend. Respect of support is likely and would offer a target of €1.29.

Canada’s Loonie is weakening against the Aussie Dollar but long-term bullish divergence on 63-day Twiggs Momentum (and breach of the descending trendline) warns of reversal to an up-trend. Breakout above parity would confirm.

Canadian Loonie/Aussie Dollar

The Aussie Dollar broke support at $1.02 USD and its recent broadening wedge on the 2-hour chart. Expect a decline to $1.01; confirmed if short-term support at $1.015 is broken.

A long-term chart shows the US dollar forming a bottom against the Yen after long-term bullish divergence on 63-day Twiggs Momentum and breach of the descending trendline. Breakout above the current descending trendline and resistance at ¥80 would indicate another test of ¥84/¥85, while breach of that level would confirm a primary up-trend.

The Euro broke support at $1.25 before falling sharply through $1.24, warning of another decline. Narrow consolidation below the new resistance level is a bearish sign. Follow-through below $1.23 would offer a target of $1.20.

Canada’s Loonie is strengthening against the US Dollar on the back of rising oil prices. Expect another test of $1.02.

The Aussie Dollar threatens to break down from its recent flag formation. Failure of support at $1.025 would suggest a test of $1.01.

The Aussie Dollar continues to range between ¥72 and ¥90 Japanese Yen. Dips are getting shorter and range traders may need to move their base to ¥75.

Against the South African Rand, the Aussie Dollar is testing resistance at R8.50. Breakout would offer a target of R9.00. Narrow consolidation above R8.30 would be a bullish sign.

The US Dollar broke support at ¥80 Japanese Yen and is now at the 61.8% Fibonacci level. Failure of short-term support at ¥79 would indicate another test of primary support at ¥76. The long-term bearish divergence on 63-day Twiggs Momentum continues, however, and a trough above zero would indicate a fresh primary advance. Breakout above ¥84 would confirm.

The US Dollar found support at ¥80 Japanese Yen. A 63-day Twiggs Momentum trough high above zero would indicate a strong up-trend. Recovery above the declining trendline and resistance at ¥82 would strengthen the signal. Failure of support is unlikely but would test primary support at ¥76.

The Euro is consolidating above support at $1.30. Failure would test  primary support at $1.26. A 63-day Twiggs Momentum peak below zero would indicate continuation of the primary down-trend. In the long term, failure of $1.26 would signal a decline to the 2010 low of $1.19/$1.20*.

Pound Sterling is consolidating below resistance at $1.60. Upward breakout would indicate an advance to the 2011 high of $1.67 — confirmed if resistance at  $1.62 is penetrated — while failure of short-term support at $1.58 would warn of another test of primary support at $1.53. 63-Day Twiggs Momentum above zero indicates a primary up-trend; but this would only be confirmed by breakout above $1.62.
