Increasing evidence that the Euro zone will not be able to de-couple from US slowdown has kept the pair range-bound since May.

Last week, we had been looking for consolidation to yield a range trade but our entry order was not filled when AUDNZD failed to pull back and rallied higher. The pair now finds itself just below 1.2070, a major top that capped last year’s 1200-pip rally and saw the pair retrace as low as 1.1150.

The only pieces of economic data due for release on Monday will be from Japan. We do not have any meaningful US data until Thursday. This should lead to exceptionally quiet trading on Monday – which makes the EURUSD the perfect range trade.</description><pubDate>Mon, 24 Dec 2007 06:17:59 GMT</pubDate><source url="http://www.fxstreet.com" /><category domain="http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/">http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/</category><author>info@fxcm.com (FXCM)</author><guid>http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/pairs-to-range-trade/2007-12-24.html</guid></item><item><title>Canadian Dollar may Decline Against Japanese Yen Within Trading Range</title><link>http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/pairs-to-range-trade/2007-12-17.html</link><description>Though volatility is a natural component of CAD/JPY trading, the pair’s range and Friday’s close just below resistance is too tempting a technical setup to pass up. The range is clearly defined by a number of fib retracements falling perfectly into place, as well as a few ancillary technicals contributing their own barrier to price action. Fundamentally, this pair is a risky trade considering the relatively full Canadian calendar. However, with the holiday’s fast approaching, volatility in</description><pubDate>Mon, 17 Dec 2007 05:38:53 GMT</pubDate><source url="http://www.fxstreet.com" /><category domain="http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/">http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/</category><author>info@fxcm.com (FXCM)</author><guid>http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/pairs-to-range-trade/2007-12-17.html</guid></item><item><title>New Zealand Dollar Resistance Provides Range Trade Oppurtunity</title><link>http://www.fxstreet.com/technical/forex-strategy/pairs-to-range-trade/2007-12-10.html</link><description>NZD/USD has been a clear range trade candidate since mid-October. And, while the rising trendline pulling up support has been the more consistent level in the range, resistance around 0.78 has proven itself equally reliable in rejecting market runs.

There is very little in the way of event risk from any of the major currencies; however, there is still a strong underlying current following the ebb and flow of risk appetite.
