Currency Strenght

Tuesday 5 February 2013

EURUSD Poseidon Charting

Our preference: Short positions below 1.3469 with targets @ 1.3377 & 1.3294 in extension.

 Above 1.354 look for further upside with 1.3590 & 1.3605 as targets.

Comment: as long as 1.354 is resistance, look for choppy price action with a bearish bias.


At 48.6 in January, from 47.2 in December, the 
Markit Eurozone PMI
®
 Composite Output Index
rose to a ten-month high and came in above its 
earlier flash estimate of 48.2. Although signalling a 
further deterioration in output of the Eurozone 
private sector economy, the rate of decline has now 
eased for three straight months. 
Both manufacturing production and service sector 
business activity declined at the slowest rates since 
last March, with similar modest rates of decline 
seen in each sector.  
Inflows of new orders fell at the slowest pace since 
last February, dropping at reduced rates in both 
manufacturing and services. Goods producers 
continued to see the steeper rate of contraction. 
A diverse picture was seen among the four largest 
euro members, with strong growth in Germany – 
output grew at the fastest rate for just over a yearand-a-half – contrasting with ongoing downturns in 
France, Italy and Spain. Output in France fell at the 
steepest rate of these four countries, registering the 
fastest monthly decline since March 2009 and 
causing the gap between the headline indices for 
France and Germany to increase to the widest in 
the survey history. The rate of decline also 
accelerated slightly in Italy, but eased to a 19-
month low in Spain. 
While Germany saw new orders rise for the first 
time in 11 months, France, Italy and Spain all saw 
rates of decline ease.
