Dollar eases along with stocks ahead of US opening, with the EUR/USD bouncing up to current daily highs. Early data show German inflation data come out in line with previous month readings, slightly above expected. In the US front, Personal consumption data result a bit better than expected, with Core reading steady at 1.5% against an expected drop to 1.4%. Greenback remains under pressure in the short term, as local share markets point to open with strong losses. Technically, the 1 hour chart shows price advancing above a flat 20 SMA with momentum heading higher above 100 and RSI also in positive territory. In the 4 hours chart RSI barely corrected oversold readings, while momentum stands below 100 and 20 SMA heads lower above current price. The bounce can extend as high as 1.2760/70 price zone, moreover if stocks enter selloff mode, yet further advances seem unlikely for these first days of the week.

The GBP/USD trades range bound between a daily low of 1.6209 posted early Asia, and a daily high of 1.6261 reached early European opening, with a mild positive tone according to the 1 hour chart as price extends above a flat 20 SMA and indicators head higher around their midlines, lacking strength at the time being.
