Major FX pairs were stuck within narrow trading ranges in a holiday-thinned Christmas Eve session in Asia Monday as the U.S. fiscal cliff situation remained in limbo.

UBS FX Technical

EURUSD – The pair is consolidation following the sharp December rally and the test of resistance at 1.3284, the May high.

AUD/USD: Continuation Lower Now Favoured. The pair dipped below the 21-DMA yesterday for the first time since late Nov and we will now look for a close below the Dec 11 low as confirmation of a break of the 21-DMA and the resulting shift lower in focus.

FX Daily Majors

Today’s highlights: – EURUSD: Resistance found at 1.3309. This is likely to cap the market for now and a correction back to 1.3072/62 is plausible, before the next leg higher to 1.3487.

Eventful session yesterday with the euro up and all the way back down…creating a gravestone doji, a bearish setup for the day.

Asian Currencies Technicals

AUD/USD: Bounces Off 21-DMA On First Test. The pair has managed to take out the rising daily trend line off Nov monthly lows and the initial support but has bounced off the 21-DMA on the first attempt.

FX Daily Majors

Today’s highlights: – EURUSD: Probing the 1.3284 hurdle now. We expect the market to break out eventually through here and persist higher to 1.3388 and then 1.3487.

Technical Alert

EURUSD overlooked a potentially bearish “Doji” yesterday and demand at elevated levels is still visible. Refs above at 1.3284 & 1.3342 are now in sight.

Asian Currencies Technicals

AUD/USD: Holding Above Initial Support. The pair continues to hold above the initial support with the rising daily trend line off Nov monthly lows adding significance to this region again today.
