The AUD/USD dropped almost 80 pips during the overnight session in contrast with the major gains seen in the previous day of trading session. Moreover the good news is that the aussie crossed the highest valuation in the last half year when yesterday it moved very close to the 200-day SMA.

One of the major releases for today is the National Australia Bank business confidence report. It is seen in the report that Business confidence in Australia has improved to -13. It is an improvement of 9 points from last month's reading of -22.

The Yen dropped to 70 pips during the last Asian session, but hit support at the level of 99.40 soon after the European market open. The Japanese yen strengthened overnight as the currency market was driven by risk aversion once again...

Aussie has just broken the trend line support. It should ideally hold 0.7100 levels. Only a break below 0.7100 for 2 consecutive sessions would change the outlook neutral.

Thank you for sharing useful informations.This involves not only a good broker, but it is also necessary to research how the spreads are priced. As the trader pays quite a bit of money over a period of time, it is important to find a good Forex broker. The broker often offers a trader variable and fixed trade spreads, this depends on the trading styles that are individualized most times. The buy and sell price of a currency pair fluctuates in variable spreads and widen in volatile market conditions and is low during market inactivity. Being predetermined, the fixed spread stays constant in trading conditions. A small premium is paid in quiet market conditions when the variable spread is lower with the broker ensuring that the spread will not be widened at any time. As a better strategy, fixed spreads are convenient for the trader unlike the variable that inflates transaction costs for the trader at critical times.

US Dollar Index: Investors are long but not tremendously long (commercials are short, but not extremely short). This is bullish.

EUR: The 13 week index has turned over from 100, which pointed towards an emotion extreme (hopefulness extreme in this case). This is tremendously bearish for the Euro.

GBP: The 13 week index is at 75 and has not been severe lately, which is neutral. There is no response extreme from which to grasp a contrarian sight.

AUD: The 13 week index has turned over from 100. Clippings arise when the index is at or close to 100, so the chance that a top is in place is high.

NZD: The 13 week index has turned over from 100. Clippings arise when the index is at or close to 100, so the chance that top is in place is soaring.

JPY: The 13 week index is at 0. These shows that commercial were the best ever they had been in 13 weeks and opportunists the shortest they had been in 13 weeks. This is bullish for the Yen.

CAD: The 13 week index is at 100, which shows a sentiment extreme. Trimmings (in the CAD here) come about when the index is at or close to 100, so anticipate the CAD to top (USDCAD bottom).
CHF: The 13 week index is at 0. A turn up from 0 would be bullish. Until that time, a bearish response extreme can remain in place.

The near the beginning cross moved drop to 94.55 suggest intra-day low is completed, 95.19/22 should upside and yield one more drop but underneath said upward trend needed to make bigger flaw to 94.28/30 before rebound due to defeat of momentum.
EURO completed the high 1.3489 and low 1.3425.The fall is week start counterfeit move. It is predictable to create a novel low under the low momentarily throughout seal of Japanese session and then swing and rise throughout European session to plunge once more towards close of European session to go up during US session on top of high.

More German data was released today that showed the largest European economy had shrunk at a pace that has been unseen since the 1990 reunification of Germany. Adding oil to the fire for the Euro was a comment by one of the German financial regulators who stated that the toxic assets held by German banks were a ticking time bomb, his exact words were in debate after reports quoted him as saying "it could blow up like a grenade." The drama drove the Euro to a lower session even against the higher yielding currencies as risk appetite improved with the news from the United States.
