EUR/USD Weekly Outlook

Saturday, March 27th, 2010

EUR/USD dived to as low as 1.3266 last week before recovering. With 4 hours MACD staying above signal line, initial bias is neutral this week and some sideway trading might be seen.

USD/CHF’s rebound from 1.0506 extended further to as high as 1.0750 last week but lost steam since then and retreated sharply. Initial bias remains neutral this week and some more consolidations could be seen below 1.0750 first. Nevertheless, we’d expect downside to be contained well above 1.0546 support and bring…

AUD/USD Weekly Outlook
