The following are the intraday outlooks for EUR/USD, USD/JPY, and EUR/GBP as provided by the technical strategy team at SEB Group.
EUR/USD: Still in the 'Wedge'. The mid-body point attracted selling as thought and the market remains below the bearishly sloped (Fibo-adjusted) 1.065 8day "Tenkan-Sen" line now at 1.0665. But support at lower end of the wedge (1.0665/60) was also respected. A break outside 1.0560 or 1.0690 is now needed to show the way short-term. Current intraday stretches are located at 1.0540 & 1.0700.
USD/JPY: Should be able to test the low-122s. With two important resistance pockets at 122.96\02 and 123.26. the move down from the 123.77 high should at least have some fuel left and test the 122.11"Equality point" (with numbers around it at 122.26/122.01 also worth keeping in mind). The next lower set of refs are located at 121.80/60 and levels there should not be forgotten either. A move over 123.26 would be renewed bullish for a fresh high, topping the 123.77 score.
EUR/GBP: Bearish print exposes 0.6982 again. The market U-turned near the still bearishly sloped 21day "Kijun-Sen" line (0.7091). This ended up with a bearish daily candle added,which exposes the recent low of 0.6982. But multiple supports at/above the Jul low of 0.6935 ought to shore up losses later. First key short-term resistance is located at 0.7080\0.7108.
