USD/CAD prints fresh daily highs FXStreet (Córdoba) - The USD/CAD rose to fresh daily highs at the beginning of the American session following the Chicago Fed National Activity Index, although it lacked follow-through to stage a steepest rally. The USD/CAD climbed to a peak of 1.1029, surpassing its Friday's high, and it was last at 1.1025, virtually unchanged on the day. On the upside, the 1.1045 area, April top, stands as immediate resistance to clear. USD/CAD technical perspective "We think USD/CAD has done enough to steady and improve going forward from a medium-term technical point of view and feel that a firm base is developing now below 1.0950. We look for a better bid tone to emerge for funds as North American trade picks up today", said the TD Securities analyst team. "USD-supportive US-Canada spreads in the belly of the curve suggest limited downside and more upside potential (towards 1.13) in the near-term. We think gains through 1.1060/70 will be supportive for the near-to-medium-term outlook for USD/CAD".

EUR/USD ends the week lower FXStreet (Córdoba) - The EUR/USD corrected lower this week and is on track to close with losses, having retreated from levels above 1.3900 scored last Friday. The EUR/USD slowly pulled back from above 1.3900 to bottom out at 1.3789 and settled in a range over the last sessions, closing the last 3 days almost unchanged. At time of writing, the EUR/USD is trading at 1.3816, on track to post a 0.47% weekly loss. Next week, the US will release a string of housing sector figures along with durable goods orders data. EUR/USD levels to watch In terms of technical levels, immediate resistances could be found at 1.3822 (Apr 18 high/100-hour SMA), 1.3863 (Apr 17 high) and 1.3882 (Apr 11 closing price). To the downside, supports are seen at 1.3796 (21-day SMA), 1.3782 (50-day SMA) and 1.3736 (Apr 8 low). EUR/USD technical outlook Valeria Bednarik, chief analyst at FXStreet, noted that the daily chart shows the EUR/USD remains above the long term daily ascendant trend line coming from 1.2755, July 2013 monthly low, around 1.3750 for the upcoming week. "As long as above this level, risk to the downside remains contained, while below the pair may attempt a test of the 1.3640/60 strong static support zone. But it will only be with a break below this latter the pair will lose its upward potential". "Weighted by words, the pair failed to close the weekly opening gap as said before, still waiting there in the 1.3890 price zone: it will take a price acceleration above this last to confirm a retest of the year high in the 1.3966 region, while once above market will be looking to test the critical 1.4000 level".

Latin America EM Express: Chile's central bank holds rates steady in April FXStreet (Łódź) - Chile's central bank held its monetary policy meeting on Thursday, during which it decided to keep the main interest rate unchanged at 4%, in line with forecasts. The recent pickup in inflation was the main reason for staying on hold. Nevertheless, in the statement released after the decision was announced, the central bank signaled its readiness to reduce rates further: “The board will consider the possibility of making additional cuts to the policy rate in line with the evolution of domestic and external macroeconomic conditions and its implications on the inflationary outlook.” The Banco Central de Chile cut borrowing costs four times over the last six months: from 5% to 4.75% in October, then to 4.5% in November, to 4.25% in February and to 4% in March. Meanwhile, inflation started accelerating above 3%, the the midpoint of the central bank's target, reaching 3.2% in February and then 3.5% in March. Economic data Brazil released its Unemployment Rate on Thursday, which showed a slide to 5% in March from 5.1% in February, against expectations of a rise to 5.4%. Brazil's April Mid-month Inflation was also published, revealing a 0.78% increase, up from 0.73% seen previously. Technicals The Chilean peso was at 557.26 against the dollar on Thursday, down 11% since the October rate cut. On Friday it was almost unchanged at 557.35. USD/BRL was down 0.67% at 2.2370 today. On Thursday the daily FXStreet Trend Index was slightly bearish, with the OB/OS Index neutral. RSI sat at 45 at the last close, and has declined to 40 so far today. Daily 2-StDev Volatility Bandwidth was shrinking at 407 pips, with ATR (14) at 271 pips. The 1D 200 SMA was at 2.3065, while the 1D 20 EMA was at 2.2540.

EMEA EM Express: Pro-Russian separatists in Donetsk refuse to vacate occupied buildings FXStreet (Łódź) - The talks between Ukrainian, Russian, EU and US leaders in Geneva, aimed at finding a solution to the Ukraine crisis ended in an agreement that efforts will be made to reach a peaceful settlement. The deal delays the imposition of further sanctions on Russia by the West, but this state of affairs may not last long as pro-Russian separatists have already refused to comply with the agreement. Under the deal, pro-Russian militants are required to disarm and cease the occupation of government buildings in Ukraine, in exchange for amnesty. Kiev on the other hand is to undertake public consultations on constitutional reform. The success of the agreement has been put into question already on Friday however, as the pro-Russian separatists occupying government buildings in Donetsk refused to vacate them. “We will lay down our weapons only if the National Guard and other Ukrainian military structures stop attacking us, and if we and our families feel safe,” one of the militants leaders told the Interfax news agency today. Meanwhile, Ukrainian PM Arseny Yatsenyuk said that the parliament was prepared to approve the amnesty bill for protesters, but that he wouldn't hope for a definite resolution of the crisis. Many voices were raised asking about the effectiveness of the EU and US response to Russia's aggressiveness and their unwillingness to use force. The BBH Global Currency Strategy Team believe that even though Ukraine and NATO have already responded to Russia's moves, by strengthening forces in the region, no such thing should be expected from the US, which “will not sanction a confrontation with Russia over areas in Europe where it does not have a defense treaty or any strategic interests.” Despite the skepticism about the validity of the agreement on Ukraine, Russian shares rose by 2.2% in Friday, which is the biggest increase in three weeks. Economic data The only piece of important EMEA data released on Friday was Hungary's Gross Wages, which showed 1.7% growth year-on-year in February, up from the 0.9% rise recorded the previous month. Technicals The Russian ruble fell against the central bank’s basket of dollars and euros to 41.6574 on Friday, following a 1.4% increase on Thursday. USD/RUB is up 0.25% at 35.5617. On Thursday the USD/RUB daily FXStreet Trend Index was slightly bearish, and the OB/OS Index neutral. RSI was at 45 at the last close and rose to 51 so far today. The Daily 2-StDev Volatility Bandwidth was shrinking at 3290 pips, with ATR (14) expanding at 4105 pips. The 1D 200 SMA was at 33.6023, while the 1D 20 EMA was at 35.7553.

Potential for further GBP strength medium-term - Investec FXStreet (Barcelona) - Jonathan Pryor, Corporate Treasury Analyst at Investec, sees the possibility of the GBP to keep the firm footing. Key Quotes "The major headline yesterday came on the UK’s unemployment release. The UK unemployment rate ticked under the 7.0% forward guidance threshold to 6.9%, meaning the Bank of England will now alter the focus of their policy stance towards eliminating spare capacity." "To put this into perspective, when Governor Carney assumed the helm last July, the BoE forecasted the unemployment rate to dip below 7% around the start of 2016, although their latest forecasts from February envisaged unemployment at 6.9% in Q1. Unemployment is now closing in on the BoE’s medium term estimate of unemployment of between 6-6.5%, meaning that that measure of slack is closing, although the new forward guidance means the BoE is now considering a range of indicators not just the unemployment rate." "Wage growth was also shown to have strengthened further in another positive sign that the economic recovery remains on track. GBPUSD shot up through 1.6800 and followed through overnight to print a four year high at 1.6837 and confirms the GBPUSD up-trend is still intact." "GBPEUR traded up through 1.2150 back to levels seen in early March before ECB President Draghi disappointed the market with inaction at the monthly policy meeting. With the pound still on a charge, any easing of policy by the ECB next month could likely see GBPEUR print new highs on the year."

USD/JPY rallies on declining yen safety demand FXStreet (London) - USD/JPY has rallied through the session so far after data released overnight indicated that the Chinese economy slowed less than consensus expectations in the first quarter. The slower than expected deceleration in Chinese growth damped demand for yen safety. Official Chinese GDP data released overnight showed that growth had fallen to an 18-month low of 7.4 percent year-on-year in the first quarter. The 1.4 percent quarter-on-quarter growth represents the lowest level since the third quarter of 2010. Despite the weak numbers, Chinese growth held above consensus expectations of a slow down to 7.3 percent year-on-year. Japanese stimulus chatter In addition, against the recent yen strength as well as declining equity markets, speculation has mounted that the Bank of Japan is preparing to intervene with an expansion of its current stimulus measures to fight deflationary pressures. In testimony before the Japanese parliament, Bank of Japan governor Haruhiko Kuroda attempted to quash those rumours and played down the longer-term importance of recent stock market declines. Japanese deflation concerns have increased following the implementation of a sales tax hike earlier this month. The next BoJ meeting is on 30 April when the central bank will release its latest long-term economic forecasts. USD/JPY rallies through morning session USD/JPY is currently trading at JPY102.2850. The pair has consolidated between JPY102.18 and JPY102.3800 after steadily rallying through the morning session. The pair has gained 0.45 percent on the opening of JPY101.8515.
