Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 10 2013 Limited chance of ECB rate cut in January; BoE unlikely to act Not much excitement is expected from the first ECB and BoE monetary policy meetings of 2013, as the majority of economists believe both central banks will remain on hold this month. Nevertheless, there are some doubts concerning ECB's action, as Mario Draghi hinted in December at a possibility of another rate reduction. The general expectation for ECB's January monetary policy meeting is that of no change. Despite the fact that the central bank signalized its readiness to perform further rate cuts, "they know as well as everyone else in the market that we can’t carry on with such low interest rates for ever," as Steve Ruffley suggests. Other contributors point out that the OMT program has brought relief to the markets, that peripheral countries' bond yields have dropped and that "fundamentals are showing signs of stabilization in major countries like France and Germany," in the words of Richard C. Lee, and that all of these factors significantly reduce the need for a cut. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/10012013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-10 12:00 GMT | United Kingdom.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 09 2013 Eurozone crisis still far from over Eurozone unemployment reached a record high of 11.8% in November, the European Commission reported on Tuesday. Data also showed an increase in youth unemployment to 24.4%. This proves that the crisis in the area is still far from over, despite recent opinions to the contrary (including European Commission head Jose Manuel Barroso’s hopeful declarations this morning). Martin van Vliet from ING, who notices this latest wave of optimism among Eurozone consumers and businesses suggests that “with more fiscal austerity in the pipeline, the debt crisis still unresolved, and unemployment rising (and hitting a fresh record high of 11.8% in November), consumers and hence businesses still have plenty to worry about. Moreover, despite the recent improvement, Eurozone economic sentiment remains in recession territory.” German Chancellor Angela Merkel held a meeting with Greek PM Antonis Samaras in Berlin on Tuesday, during which the Greek leader assured that his country was delivering on promises to implement austerity measures and was carrying out reforms in return for European aid. “We are trying to win back credibility, on the part of the people of Europe and on the part of the markets,” Samaras told reporters during a press conference. Angela Merkel praised Greece’s efforts to reduce its debt load so far and expressed her interest in the progress of implementation of the previously agreed austerity measures. She also warned that 2013 will be a tough year for the Eurozone. “We must agree on stronger economic policy cooperation by June this year, and there is plenty of work ahead of us,” she said.-FXstreet.com http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical...nuary-09-2013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-09 09:30 GMT | United Kingdom.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 08 2013 Japan to buy ESM bonds to stabilize the yen The big story in the Asian session is the announcement by Japan of its commitment to purchase ESM bonds to help stabilize Europe, Japan Finance Minister Taro Aso told reporters. The decision-maker added that Japan will buy European ESM bonds using FX reserves, although amount of bond buys is undecided at this point, he said. In another Reuters headline, Mr. Aso said the buys will start as soon as today. Meanwhile, the Economic Revival Minister Amari said that upcoming BoJ stimulus will be “significant”. Meanwhile,after months of uncertainty and struggle to reach a compromise in Congress, lawmakers finally voted on a deal to avoid falling completely off of the fiscal cliff. The agreement, voted on early New Year’s Day by the Senate, was finally passed by the House late at night, just days before the new Congress is sworn in. Tax reform dominated much of the heated debate in recent weeks, but the Democrats and Republicans finally reached an agreement in order to avoid a significant impact on economic activity, at least in the short-term. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical...nuary-08-2013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-08 07:00 GMT | Germany.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 07 2013 ECB, BOE in Prime Focus this Week With the Fiscal Cliff behind us and the impending debt ceiling debate at least another month away, market focus will return to plain economic fundamentals next week. The sentiment is being bolstered by two central bank announcements – the ECB (January 10th, 7:45AM EST) and BOE (January 10th, 7:00AM EST). Although nothing really new is expected, both events are still likely to take the lion’s share of attention. Nothing is expected to happen when the Bank of England meets for the first time in 2013. Although concerns have emerged over a divide in the central bank, it is unlikely that the monetary body will move to do anything other than wait-and-see. The key remains in the results from the Funding for Lending program, which is entering its sixth month of operation. In the same respect, the ECB is unlikely to move when it decides on interest rates on Thursday. Instead, monetary policy leaders will continue to highlight the option of the OMT scheme in quelling any more crisis concerns, and likely point to stabilization in the region’s member economies in justifying no rate change. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical-market-analysis-january-07-2013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-07 09:30 GMT | E.M.U.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 04 2013 Two largest rating agencies consider US fiscal cliff deal insufficient Moody's and Standard and Poor's credit rating agencies urged US lawmakers on Thursday to increase their efforts to tackle the country's budget deficit, as they consider the last-minute fiscal cliff measures insufficient. The deal which was struck on Tuesday between Democrats and Republicans, with the aim to avoid automatic year-end tax increases and spending cuts, improves the current situation but does not lay foundations for lowering debt ratios in the medium term, Moody's rating agency told Reuters. Moody's senior credit officer Steven Hess said that the agency would wait for the outcome of the measures adopted by the US government before making decisions on the rating outlook or the rating itself. Pending the signature of President Obama, expected to be done shortly, the US officially avoids that millions of citizens suffer tax hikes and spending reductions, which would have brought the U.S. economy into recession according to economists' projections. Worth not forgetting though, is that still plentiful of unresolved pressing issues remain, with the most immediate being the need to raise the federal borrowing limit, with the deadline over 2 month from now.-FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/04012013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-04 09:30 GMT | United Kingdom.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 03 2013 Congress Passes Fiscal Cliff Deal – The Breakdown In a final hour maneuver, Congressional leaders brokered a deal that will allow the US economy to avert the Fiscal Cliff and alleviate pressure on the financial markets. The passage is being considered by some to be a victory for US President Barack Obama. But, by others, it shifts the focus to mid February when discussions are likely to begin over the impending debt ceiling. With the bill set to be signed into law by US President Barack Obama, focus has now shifted to the impending debt ceiling debate – likely to begin in mid-February. The concern remains over the fact that Democratic leaders will need to make further concessions on spending to Republicans in order to allow an extension of the $16.4 trillion ceiling. An inability to do so would plunge the government into a plausible shutdown. This will likely include cutbacks in entitlement spending and other programs in order to equalize Republican concessions for the Fiscal Cliff deal. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical-market-analysis-january-03-2013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-03 08:55 GMT | Germany.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jan 02 2013 US House passes fiscal cliff bill After weeks of talks and negotiations, the House of Representatives has finally passed the fiscal cliff bill, with the ‘yea’ votes obtained surpassing the 217 threshold needed to approve the fiscal deal. The final vote count stood at 257-167 in favour of the bill. President Obama is ready to sign it into law. The compromise, which first was agreed by Senate in early Tuesday morning, has come not without some last minute agitated negotiation disputes, in which Republicans wanted to challenge the approved senate-bill by sending it back for revision demanding additional spending cuts, with reports initially suggesting that the House Republicans would be adjourning any decision until Wednesday. Pending the signature of President Obama, expected to be done shortly, the US officially avoids that millions of citizens suffer tax hikes and spending reductions, which would have brought the U.S. economy into recession according to economists’ projections. Worth not forgetting though, is that still plentiful of unresolved pressing issues remain, with the most immediate being the need to raise the federal borrowing limit, with the deadline over 2 month from now. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical-market-analysis-january-01-2013/ Forex Economic Calendar 2013-01-02 08:58 GMT | E.M.U.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 31 2012 Time running short for ‘fiscal cliff’ deal Well, it looks like negotiations on Capitol Hill are still ongoing and far apart to avoid January’s “fiscal cliff”, as the House and Senate are to reconvene later today, the final day for Congress to craft a resolution prior to the deadline. In a Sunday talk show, President Obama stated clearly that it appears the GOP’s top priority is to protect the tax rates for the wealthy, while his top priority is to ensure that taxes on the middle-class do not go up. Although the President says he remains optimistic, he also acknowledges that financial markets would be unfavorably impacted if the US economy stumbles off of the cliff. As Kathy Lien, Managing Director at BK Asset Management explains in a research note: “If it becomes evident that a deal will be deferred to January, expect currencies and equities to sell-off in disappointment. With some major currencies pulling back and equities declining, we have already seen investors take profit and hedge their positions ahead of the Fiscal Cliff deadline. If Obama announces a stripped down plan and expresses confidence that a deal will be sealed by end of day Monday, we can expect currencies and equities to rally in relief.” http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical...ember-31-2012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-31 10:00 GMT | Greece.Retail Sales (YoY) (Oct) 2012-12-31 11:30 GMT | India.Current Account Balance $ (Q3) 2012-12-31 12:00 GMT | South Africa.Trade Balance (in Rands) (Nov) 2012-12-31 15:30 GMT | USA.Dallas Fed Manufacturing Business Index (Dec) Forex News 2012-12-31 05:53 GMT | EUR/USD ending 2012 +2% higher after all 2012-12-31 05:03 GMT | Time running short for ‘fiscal cliff’ deal 2012-12-31 03:26 GMT | USD/JPY capped at 86 round with Tokyo closed 2012-12-31 02:17 GMT | AUD/JPY finishing 2012 above 89.00 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS ----------------- EURUSD HIGH: 1.32345 | LOW: 1.31879 | BID: 1.31993 | ASK: 1.32000 | CHANGE: -0.13% | TIME: 08 : 02:34 OUTLOOK SUMMARY: Down TREND CONDITION: Sideway TRADERS SENTIMENT: Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY: Low MARKET ANALYSIS – Intraday Analysis Upwards scenario: We expect resuming of the uptrend formation if the price manages to overcome next resistance level at 1.3215 (R1).

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 28 2012 Fiscal cliff looms as US lawmakers play game of brinkmanship The "fiscal cliff" steadfastly approaches and it is a fair assumption that no one will come up with a deal in time to stop the country from careening off the edge. Nearly everyone involved claims they want to avoid the automatic tax increases and colossal budget cuts that will start kicking in at the start of 2013, however few are ready to make the compromises necessary to make that happen. As expected, anti-tax purists in the House Republican Caucus have gotten in the way of Speaker John A. Boehners attempts to come up with a fix for the fiscal cliff. Last week, he withdrew his doomed Plan B rather than let it go to a vote he knew he would lose. Democrats were united in their opposition, though what ultimately killed the scheme was the refusal of conservatives in Boehner’s own caucus to go along with a tax increase for millionaires. Boehner now seems to have washed his hands of responsibility and says it is up to the president and Democrats in the Senate to save the country from the New Year’s program cuts and tax increases that will come so fast and furiously that the economy could suffer. President Obama cut short his Hawaii vacation to return to the snow-covered capital hoping to concoct a last-minute deal in the eleventh hour. -FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/28122012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-28 **:00 GMT | Italy. 10-y Bond Auction 2012-12-28 07:45 GMT | France.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 26 2012 Year In Preview: What Will 2013 Bring for the Euro? Another year has gone by and a lot has happened in the last twelve months, even as the European financial crisis continues to persist. But, taking a look at the next twelve months, and it’s easy to see that things are going to be that much calmer for the single currency in 2013. Here are some things to consider when January 1st rolls around. Shift in ECB Policy With European Union growth remaining lower for most of 2012, the European Central Bank has refrained from cutting rates amid persistently higher inflation. Although not rampant, the pace of consumer prices has risen by 2.2-2.5% annually in 2012 – a cause for at least some concern and a stay on rates. However, with inflation set to decline once again on slower growth, ECB policymakers may be at a favorable point in time to execute a rate cut of 25 basis points. The notion is being supported by growth forecasts by the central bank that pit EU contraction at about 0.3% for all of next year. The rate cut would be bearish for the Euro in the short term, but at least support the chance for growth in the wider EU region as periphery economies are expected to contribute handsomely to the decline in overall expansion. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical-market-analysis-december-26-2012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-26 13:55 GMT | USA.Redbook index (YoY) 2012-12-26 13:55 GMT | USA.Redbook index (MoM) 2012-12-26 14:00 GMT | USA.S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices (YoY) (Oct) 2012-12-26 15:00 GMT | USA.Richmond Fed Manufacturing Index (Dec) Forex News 2012-12-24 19:27 GMT | EUR/USD ends the day unchanged 2012-12-24 18:12 GMT | GBP/USD to end the year around 1.63 - Rabobank 2012-12-24 15:21 GMT | EUR/JPY hits 112.00 as investors price in comments from Japan 2012-12-24 15:06 GMT | AUD/USD trading near calculated support at 1.0385/87 ------------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.32332 LOW 1.31712 BID 1.31783 ASK 1.31787 CHANGE 0% TIME 08:23:45 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Low MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Upwards scenario: Next resistance level at 1.3217 (R1) locates above the local peak.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 24 2012 Boehner’s ‘Plan B’ bill vote canceled News has hit the newswires that there will be no vote on ‘Plan B’ this evening due to lack of Republican support. Speaker John Boehner has pulled his own bill, and his office has just released a statement that says, in part: “The House did not take up the tax measure today because it did not have sufficient support from our members to pass. Now it is up to the President to work with Senator Reid [(D)] on legislation to avert the fiscal cliff.” This is significant because the Speaker could not persuade his own Republican members to back his plan against President Obama’s offers and proposals on the matter. The US dollar is well bid across the board on this news, as market participants flee to safety. The Republican-lead House of Representatives on Capitol Hill is moving ahead with a bill aimed at pressuring President Obama for a “fiscal cliff” deal. A second vote on taxes is expected later this evening; the House is in recess for now, but the Ways and Means staff is said to be on the floor ready for the tax debate to begin. In the end, even if House Speaker John Boehner’s “Plan B” were to pass, political analysts say that it stands no chance of being accepted by the Democratic-lead Senate or by the President. Time is quickly running out for US lawmakers to reach a deal to prevent a self-inflicted economic recession. At the time of writing, the U.S. dollar is finding buying interest across the board, likely underpinned by this sour mood surrounding the “fiscal cliff” developments, and on news that S&P has just downgraded Cyprus’ foreign long-term issuer credit rating to CCC+ from B. – http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical...ember-24-2012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-24 02:00 GMT | New Zealand.M3 Money Supply (YoY) (Nov) 2012-12-24 11:00 GMT | Ireland.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 20 2012 All Eyes On Bank of Japan Following Abe Win Now that the Japanese lower house elections are over, trader focus is being placed on the Bank of Japan’s monetary policy decision – taking place over the next two days. This decision will be important one for the underlying currency, which continues to lose against the US dollar. Since the beginning of the election campaign, LDP leader Shinzo Abe has run on the platform for further monetary easing in boosting economic growth. As a result, central bank leaders have been under extreme pressure from Abe supporters in expanding monetary policy – currently totaling $1.1 trillion. And, now that Abe has won, further accommodation is anticipated. Expectations are now for the Bank of Japan to leave interest rates near zero, while expanding monetary policy by another $1 billion. Such a move may ultimately jeopardize the independence of the Bank of Japan, as policymakers would be falling into line with the political agenda. Incidentally, traders will be looking for a change in the inflation target set by the central bank – potentially raising it to 2% from the current 1%. This is another Abe policy that was promised as the government attempts to alleviate the current deflationary environment. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical-market-analysis-december-20-2012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-20 09:30 GMT | United Kingdom.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 19 2012 Standard & Poor's upgrades Greece from selective default to B- outlook stable Two weeks later after credit agency Standar & Poor's downgraded Greece to selective default, it has lifted again the rating to -B, two notches higher than expected back in December 05 when the initial downgrade took place, on the promise when the payback debt was finished the upgrade would come. From today's S&P statement: “The stable outlook balances our view of euro zone member states determination to support Greece’s euro zone membership and the Greek government’s commitment to a fiscal and structural adjustment against the economic and political challenges of doing so,” the agency said. “Even after the buyback, Greece’s end-2012 net debt-to-GDP ratio of over 160 percent of GDP remains onerous,” the credit rating company stated. “Nevertheless, subject to Greece meeting program conditions, euro zone member states have said they would significantly improve official lending terms to the government.”- https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/19122012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-19 09:00 GMT | E.M.U.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 18 2012 Fiscal Cliff Talks Thaw It seems that Republican stances are softening as the clock ticks down to the New Year, and the US approaches the activation of the Fiscal Cliff. In the newest round of discussions, Republican leaders led by House Speaker John Boehner have conceded to allowing a tax rate increase of earners making a minimum of $1 million. The tax rate for income in that range would increase from 36% to 39.5% under the concession. In addition, Republicans have offered to table the $16.4 trillion debt ceiling discussion for one year. The debt ceiling debate would likely emerge early next year without any deal, sparking concern and speculation of a government shutdown. The concessions have done little to support the greenback as the Obama administration continues to press forward with its objective of raising tax rates for the top 2% of income earners – rejecting recent Republican concessions. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical...ember-18-2012/ Forex Economic Calendar N/A | United Kingdom.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Dec 17 2012 U.S. Fiscal Cliff: Republican leadership softens stance on tax rates The Fiscal Cliff negotiations are showing signs of progress after the weekend brought an offer from GOP lawmakers to allow tax rates to rise on those making more than $1mn; President Obama had been demanding that tax rates rise on those earning over $250k. “With progress remaining slow and messages mixed expect ongoing debt negotiations to well and truly steal the limelight in the lead up to Christmas,” says OzForex Research. According to Cliff Wachtel, author of The Sensible Guide To Forex, the general fiscal cliff uncertainty is bearish: “Given the widespread consensus that there would be a deal deferring most of the potential government spending cuts and tax increases, and that most global stock indexes remain within 10% of their decade highs, it’s safe to say that markets have not priced in a failure to reach a deal.” http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical-market-analysis-december-17-2012/ Forex Economic Calendar 2012-12-17 09:00 GMT | European Monetary Union.

Forex Technical & Market Analysis Dec 14 2012 Leaders debate EMU consolidation after bank supervision deal In order to achieve the completion of EMU, the 27-countries bloc made further progress on the roadmap to achieve such goals, after the agreement for a Euro bank supervisor by the ECB earlier on the week, which will police north of 200 flagship banks.Today's European leaders meeting, which again concluded over 2 hours past midnight Brussels time, showed some understandable differences on how to go about the next critical steps, such as a banking resolution, measure to reduce country's deficit and a budget for the whole bloc. One of the notorious opposed members to see mutualisation of the debts after the ECB bank's oversight role, was German Chancellor Angela Merkel, who continues to play it safely against passing new liabilities for German taxpayers ahead of next year's national elections. As Reuters notes, "a German delegation source said that in the summit room, she opposed a joint resolution fund for banks at this stage and rejected any big "fiscal capacity" to help euro zone states cope with economic shocks or reward them for structural reforms. Instead, she said EU countries should concentrate on consolidating their own budgets, according to notes of the meeting and an account provided by one participant." Merkel, once out of the official meeting, told reporters that the bank union deal was a 'very important' decision taken by the EZ leaders, and that such agreement paves the way for future positive developments of a currency union. On the transaction tax, she suspects a solidarity fund for Euro zone states with limits 10 to 20 billion Euros. - https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/14122012/ Forex Economic Calendar : 2012-12-14 10:00 GMT | EU.Consumer Price Index - Core (YoY) (Nov) 2012-12-14 10:00 GMT | EU.Consumer Price Index (YoY) (Nov) 2012-12-14 13:30 GMT | USA.Consumer Price Index (YoY) (Nov) 2012-12-14 13:30 GMT | USA.Consumer Price Index Ex Food & Energy (YoY) (Nov) Forex News : 2012-12-14 05:51 GMT | GBP/USD rallies above 1.6120 resistance; scope for 50-pip run? 2012-12-14 04:50 GMT | AUD/JPY hits 9-month highs; eyes resistance at 88.60 2012-12-14 03:29 GMT | USD/JPY just spiked a bit; approaching 84.00 2012-12-14 00:53 GMT | EUR/USD still below 1.31; outlook remains bullish – V.Bednarik ----------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.31 LOW 1.30662 BID 1.30890 ASK 1.30897 CHANGE 0.09% TIME 08:09:37 OUTLOOK : SUMMARY TREND CONDITION : Upward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Medium term bias is positive for the pair.

Forex Technical Market Analysis December 12 2012 Greek banks tender rest of Greek debt holdings to help reach buyback target According to reports, Greece has reached the bond buyback target at 31.5 billion euros on Tuesday. The deadline for submitting bids was extended by one more day yesterday, due to the inability to reach the expected 30 billion euros by initial deadline which ended on December 7 at 17:00 GMT. Greek banks probably tendered the total amount of the Greek debt they hold in order to help cover the difference between the 26.5 billion euros received last Friday and the the expected 30 billion euros. This means that the EU and the IMF will now be able to unblock the next bailout tranche for the indebted country. Spain held a debt auction on Tuesday during which it managed to sell 3.89 billion euros of 12- and 18 -month government bods, above the targeted 3.5 billion euros. 2.39 billion euros of 12-month bills were auctioned at an average yield of 2.556%, down from 2.797% seen at the previous auction. The bid to cover ratio was at 2.46, compared with the previous 2.12. 1.5 billion euros of 18-month bonds were sold at an average yield of 2.778% versus 3.034%. The bid to cover ratio was at 2.7 from 5.72 seen previously. http://blog.fxcc.com/forex-technical...ember-12-2012/ Forex Calendar 2012-12-12 09:30 GMT | UK.Claimant Count Change (Nov) 2012-12-12 17:30 GMT | USA.Fed Interest Rate Decision (Dec 12) 2012-12-12 19:00 GMT | USA.FOMC Economic Projections 2012-12-12 19:15 GMT | USA.Fed’s Monetary Policy Statement and press conference Forex News 2012-12-12 05:48 GMT | GBP/USD tight in range ahead of UK, US events 2012-12-12 04:00 GMT | GBP/JPY just 30 pips below year 2012 highs 2012-12-12 02:27 GMT | AUD/USD stalls below 1.0540 awaiting RBA Stevens 2012-12-12 00:49 GMT | EUR/USD: tight ranges circa 1.3000 expected pre-Fed -------------- EURUSD HIGH: 1.30141 | LOW: 1.29968 | BID: 1.29974 | ASK: 1.29980 | CHANGE: -0.06% | TIME: 08:14:53 OUTLOOK SUMMARY: Down TREND CONDITION: Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT: Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY: High MARKET ANALYSIS – Intraday Analysis Price setup is looking for a pullback development.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 11 2012 Silvio Berlusconi Makes Trouble For EURUSD Bulls Although the single currency is higher on the day, it’s abundantly clear that the recent resignation by Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti is keeping Euro bulls at bay. The prime minister is now scheduled to step down following the 2013 budget vote taking place before the end of the year – instead of serving till April of next year. The announcement changes the political landscape of the largest of the troubled peripheral nations, and will likely add to recent pessimism when it comes to the single currency. However, with public discontent over recent austerity and tax increases rising, many of Monti’s previous allies have fallen away. In particular, former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and his People of Freedom (PDL) party, have become disenchanted with the current administration. The sentiment was heightened last week when representatives of the PDL walked out of an economic reform vote – calling for a vote of no-confidence in the prime minister. The notion was unfortunately backed by several other members of the Democratic Party – Monti’s major backer in the political arena. With Monti’s final resignation to come in the next few weeks, it will be up to Italian President Giorgio Napolitano to dissolve parliament, and either appoint a successor or keep Monti as the country’s PM. General elections will follow, placing the date somewhere in February 2013 at the earliest. - FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/11122012/ UPCOMING EVENTS : 2012-12-11 10:00 GMT | Germany.ZEW Survey - Economic Sentiment (Nov) 2012-12-11 13:30 GMT | USA.Trade Balance (Oct) 2012-12-11 23:30 GMT | Australia.Westpac Consumer Confidence (Dec) 2012-12-11 23:50 GMT | Japan.Machinery Orders (YoY) (Oct) FOREX NEWS : 2012-12-11 04:59 GMT | AUD/USD strengthens on China data 2012-12-11 04:42 GMT | EUR/USD breaking to fresh session highs on better than expected China data 2012-12-11 03:55 GMT | GBP/JPY bears defending 132.50 2012-12-11 01:20 GMT | EUR/AUD on fresh session highs following bad Aussie confidence data ---------------------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.29622 LOW 1.29287 BID 1.29597 ASK 1.29601 CHANGE 0.15% TIME 08:05:06 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Up TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Low MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis We expect resuming of the uptrend formation if the price manages to overcome next resistance level at 1.2968 (R1).

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 10 2012 Italian PM Monti announces intention to resign; early elections likely in February The political news coming from Italy, in which current primer minister Mario Monti plans to resign once the 2013 budget goes through parliament and is approved, are not sitting well with the Euro, as investors anticipate it may lead to a new chapter in the EU crisis. The prospects of higher Italian bond yields when Europe opens weighs on the Euro. The Italian general elections, upon final confirmation, will likely be celebrated in February. Former primer minister Silvio Berlusconi is to run as centre-right candidate, and with the threat of an 'Il Cavaliere'-led anti-euro campaign looming, traders have logically turned cautious. The leading centre-left PD party is still in control, with Berlusconi's centre-right PDL behind by over 16 points. According to NAB: "Prospects of Italian bond yields spiking higher when Europe opens is driving the euro lower. EUR bears would though do well to note that the People of Liberty party currently trails the centre-left Democratic party by 20% points. Plus, the re-appearance of Mr Berlusconi to the centre of the Italian political stage may well prompt Mr Monti to make him himself available for re-selection as PM after elections now seen likely to occur next February, three months earlier than originally intended." - FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/10122012/ UPCOMING EVENTS : 2012-12-10 13:15 GMT | Canada.Housing Starts s.a (YoY) (Nov) 2012-12-10 17:15 GMT | UK.BoE's Governor King Speech 2012-12-10 21:00 GMT | Australia.REINZ House Price Index (MoM) (Nov) 2012-12-10 21:45 GMT | Australia.Electronic Card Retail Sales (MoM)/(YoY) (Nov) FOREX NEWS : 2012-12-10 05:33 GMT | GBP/USD outlook bearish below 1.6065 – V.Bednarik 2012-12-10 04:41 GMT | EUR/JPY offered toward 106.00; yen more bid 2012-12-10 03:49 GMT | EUR/USD bears beware ahead of Spanish bailout - UBS 2012-12-10 02:26 GMT | AUD/USD slips to 1.0465 on downbeat China trade numbers ---------------------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.29157 LOW 1.28871 BID 1.29066 ASK 1.29074 CHANGE -0.13% TIME 08:12:00 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Low MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Pair is losing its neutral structure, as the price has tested new lows today.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 07 2012 ECB, Berlusconi Hit EURUSD Hard Lower by 0.73% in the morning session, the EURUSD is being weighed down by major developments in Europe. Specifically, sparks of political instability in one of the troubled EU members, as well as a pessimistic outlook on Europe’s growth potential is making it difficult for traders to be bullish the Euro. The sentiment has traders and technicians eyeing the 1.2900 as the next viable support barrier. Although leaving the benchmark interest rate at 0.75% early in the morning, the European Central Bank issued a dour note when it came time to assess the economic future of the European Union. In a post decision press conference, ECB President Mario Draghi noted that significant headwinds had placed pressure on a potential regional recovery. So much so that growth prospects for next year were forecasted lower, with the 17-member Union looking to either remain unchanged or contract slightly. Official estimates now lie between a 0.3% pace of growth and a 0.9% contraction in 2013. Additionally, Draghi noted that “available statistics and survey indicators continue to signal further weakness in activity in the last quarter of the year”.This isn’t seen as favorable for the Euro, which was expecting a slight recovery in the European Union next year – at a pace of 0.5%. - FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/07122012/ UPCOMING EVENTS : 2012-12-07 10:00 GMT | EMU.ECB President Draghi's Speech 2012-12-07 13:30 GMT | Canada.Net Change in Employment (Nov) 2012-12-07 13:30 GMT | Canada.Unemployment Rate (Nov) 2012-12-07 13:30 GMT | USA.Nonfarm Payrolls (Nov) FOREX NEWS : 2012-12-07 05:50 GMT | GBP/USD unchanged around 1.0650; UK, US data eyed 2012-12-07 02:58 GMT | EUR/JPY grinds back up to 107 after overnight drop 2012-12-07 06:06 GMT | Will NFP confirm EUR/USD weekly losses? 2012-12-07 00:38 GMT | AUD/USD, Australia trade number discourages volatility; stops above 1.0525 ---------------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.29724 LOW 1.29548 BID 1.29564 ASK 1.29571 CHANGE -0.09% TIME 08:05:55 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Current price deviation might face next support level at 1.2950 (S1).

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 06 2012 S&P downgrades Greece to selective default In an unsurprising headline, reflected by the marginal losses in EUR/USD since the news broke, the rating agency S&P has downgraded Greece's long-term debt rating to selective default from CCC. Greece is technically default. The Greek government invitation to private sector bondholders involvement to participate in the debt buybacks program triggered the decision by S&P. However, according to Jamie McGeever, Editor and presenter at Reuters TV, "once Greek buyback is done, probably on or around Dec 17, selective default will be over, so S&P will likely lift Greece back to CCC rating." British Chancellor George Osborne delivered his Autumn Budget Statement before the parliament on Wednesday. He emphasized that the Eurozone debt crisis had been weighing on the UK economy and informed that the Office of Budget Responsibility slashed its GDP forecast to -0.1% in 2012 from +0.8%. The predictions for 2012 and 2013 are 1.2% and 2.0%, respectively. - FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/06122012/ UPCOMING EVENTS : 2012-12-06 10:00 GMT | European Union.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 05 2012 No breakthrough on banking union due to Franco-German dispute A clash between France and Germany over banking supervision in the Eurozone prevented the Eurogroup from reaching an agreement on the EU banking union on Tuesday. EU finance ministers decided to hold an additional meeting on December 12, just ahead of the EU summit on December 13, by which time a deal on the banking union needs to be made. France and Germany are divided over the scope of ECB's powers as the Eurozone bank supervisor. France pushes for a solution in which the central bank would regulate all the financial institutions in the region, while Germany would like smaller banks to be excluded from this supervision. Berlin is also not too keen on seeing a full banking union formed that quickly, as it fears it will be obliged to pay for potential future banking losses in other Member States. German finance minister Wolfgang Schäuble commented on France's proposition saying that there was no possibility for the central bank to supervise so many financial institutions, while his French counterpart Pierre Moscovici stated that the EU cannot introduce a system of dual supervision."We have no mandate for a dual system of supervision which would call into question the existence of a single system for some banks," the French finance minister argued. - FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/05122012/ UPCOMING EVENTS : 2012-12-05 15:00 GMT | United States.

Daily Forex Analysis from FXCC Dec 04 2012 Spain makes formal request for EU funds to recapitalize ailing banks Spain has formally requested aid for its ailing banking sector on Monday. 36.5 billion euros of bailout funds, including 2.5 billion euros for the “bad bank", are due to be released on December 12. Four nationalized Spanish banks will be the recipients of the funds: 18 billion will go to Bankia; 9 billion to CatalunyaBanc, 5 billion to Nova Caixa Galicia; 4.5 billion to Banco de Valencia. The release of the aid is expected to be approved by the Eurogroup during their monthly meeting today in the European afternoon. Even though it is not the full sovereign bailout request awaited by the markets, the news caused the euro to spike to the 1.3075 region, a new six-week high against the dollar. - FXstreet.com https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/04122012/ UPCOMING EVENTS : 2012-12-04 10:00 GMT | European Monetary Union.Producer Price Index (YoY) (Oct) 2012-12-04 14:00 GMT | Canada.BoC Interest Rate Decision (Jan 4) 2012-12-04 14:00 GMT | Canada.BOC Rate Statement 2012-12-04 22:30 GMT | Australia.AiG Performance of Services Index (Nov) FOREX NEWS : 2012-12-04 05:36 GMT | EUR/GBP in a 10 pip range for last 11 hours above 0.81 2012-12-04 03:20 GMT | EUR/JPY bulls looking for break above 107.65 2012-12-04 01:58 GMT | More EUR/USD gains yet to come - V.Bednarik 2012-12-04 01:10 GMT | USD/JPY double roof materializing at 78.6% Fibo EURUSD : HIGH 1.30645 LOW 1.30459 BID 1.30570 ASK 1.30575 CHANGE 0.04% TIME 08:05:53 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Up TREND CONDITION : Up trend TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis We expect resuming of the uptrend formation if the price manages to overcome next resistance level at 1.3071 (R1).
