Cable and AUD/USD also bounced, so perhaps it's USD weakness rather than Euro resilience at this point.

but caution remains same from 12235, as long as your not sure that it will break on the day below 121 levels 120 area point the sense in trading that. Why take chances.

Lagarde: Exporters Not Complaining Now
French finance minister Lagarde says that exporters were complaining about EUR/USD at 1.45 but they are not complaining now so the lower euro must be working for them.
Too bad it took a catastrophic sovereign debt crisis to realign currencies to more traditional values
EUR/USD is consolidating at 1.2295.


OOPs TYPO Err0R, thats 12140

EUR doesn't bounce strongly ... a good indicator is EURPLN ( ZTY) be careful with eur long the banks don't perform well and apparently UBS is in some trouble.

Observe the CME's COT chart to get a better understanding.

Price will bounce every time below 12240, area below remains vulnerable even banks are not risking it anymore.

They say they dont ring a bell at tops and bottoms, but todays price action may considered the next-best thing, as the euro absorbs all manner of bad news and bounces strongly

I have never personally had any dealings with the ratings agencies,however my contrarian mind keeps telling me the guys presently pronouncing the ill health of various sovereign debt and thus influencing all markets are the same guys who a few years back were rating packages of sub-prime mortgage debt AAA??? Should they really still have the credibility to move markets???
