. EUR/USD - 1.3827..
. Although active buying of euro vs yen due to the
increased risk appetite had lifted price fm Asian low at 1.3807 to 1.3851 in
European morning y'day, release of lower-than-expected EU CPI triggered broad-
based selling in euro n price fell to 1.3804 in NY morning b4 recovering.

. Looking at the daily n hourly charts, euro's rebound fm Tue's low at
1.3790 to 1.3851 y'day suggests fall fm last Fri's 3-week peak at 1.3906 has
made a temporary low there n a few days of choppy trading abv this sup is seen,
a breach of 1.3851 wud bring stronger gain to 1.3864 n possibly 1.3880/90,
however, price shud falter below 1.3906 today ahead of longEaster holiday n
yield strg retreat later. Looking ahead, below 1.3801/04 (hourly chart) wud
indicate aforesaid fall to retrace retrace upmove fm 1.3672 (Apr 4 low) has
resumed n extend twd 1.3761, being the 'dynamic' 61.8% r of 1.3762-1.3906, but
reckon 1.3748 (last Mon's top, now sup) wud hold n yield strg rebound.

. In view near mixed outlook, we have exited our previous short position
n stand aside today. Only a daily close abv 1.3906 wud turn outlook bullish for
gain to 1.3948 n a possible re-test of Mar 2-1/2 yr peak at 1.3967 next week.
