Tim, EUR holding fine against all currencies, but the YEn remains the most likely currency against which EUR will drop. Look at the 4-hr and daily charts. very dismal. Look for 129.60 and 129.20.

"weak EURJPY " ?? Please elucidate. Seems the EUR is holding up fairly well against JPY.
Maybe it would help if I knew what would you consider a strong EURJPY? Do you have downside 'targets' and timelines for EURJPY ? Many thanks.

Correcting yesterday's take on AUDNZD, I said it was AUDJPY but i MEANT AUDNZD:

we're already down at 1.2730s, looking for initial target at 1.2650s, followed by 1.25 with stop at 1.2810

Peter, i see improved chances for euro/usd nearing $1.3950 as early as next week before a pullback thereafter. 1.40 by end of july has about 60% chance

FL, safe haven flows from falling equities will go to the yen. today's news of S&P downgrading UK rating is a MAJOR NEWS...reason to decline in world markets and oil.

Hi Asharf,

yes The Vix index show under 30 now, But Stock Markets if Falling down then Takes refuge from danger the fund Massive inflows USD, Will not favor EUR and GBP etc...... what do you think In this kind of supposition situation? Under compares GBP Whether to display will compare EUR Strong.
please advise.

Thanks a lot!
