Technical Analysis – FX Daily Majors

Today’s highlights:
* EURUSD: “Inside/outside” pattern caution this week reflects reluctance to overcome trend barriers, now 1.3280/3305. Risk now through trend and chart support (1.3200, 1.3157) towards 1.3058.
* USDJPY: Modest bounce to be capped by trend resistance, now 81.10, with break of 80.11/00 retrace/chart support still aiming down to 79.15 retrace target
* NZDJPY: Already an approach to our next target at the 38.2% retrace of the November-March rally, 64.50. Through here opens the door to the 200-day MA, currently 63.24, into May.
* USDTRY: The intermediate-term bearish reversal through the 2010-12 trend support further reinforced, with May targets now set at the 1.7330 low and 1.7180/1.7089 retrace price support cluster.
