EUR/USD - Euro bulls remained above the 1.1900 figure, but once again failed to gain upside moment and prepared for a retreat. As dollar longs push the pair below 1.1865, a level marked by the 23.6 Fib of the 1.2588-1.1639 USD rally the greenback bulls, a further move to the downside will most likely see the greenback target single currency bids around 1.1778, a level established by the December 30 daily low. A sustained momentum on the part of the dollar longs will most likely see the pair break below the 1.1700 figure and target bids around 1.1639, a level established by 2005 low, which currently acts as a gateway toward the psychologically important 1.1500 handle. A further move below the 1.1500 figure will most likely signal that a dollar dominated trend is underway. Indicators are favoring dollar longs with both negative momentum indicator and MACD trading below the zero line, while oversold Stochastic gives the single currency longs a chance to retaliate.

A further move to the upside will most likely see the pair head higher and target the yen offers around 121.39, a level marked by the 2005 High. A further move to the upside will most likely see the dollar longs break above and aim toward 123.25, a level not seen since November 25, 2002, a further breakout will most likely see the dollar traders target the psychologically important 125.00 handle. Indicators are favoring the dollar longs with both positive momentum indicator and MACD above the zero line, while overbought Stochastic gives yen longs a chance to retaliate.

GBP/USD - British pound longs continued to bounce in a tight trading range as pair remained above 1.7391, a level defended by the 23.6 Fib of the 1.8500-1.7048 USD rally. As dollar bulls resume their advance and push the pair toward 1.7312, a level marked by the July 8 daily low, with a further collapse of the sterling defenses will most likely see the greenback longs extend their rally below the 1.7200 figure and target pound bids around 1.7188, a level established by the January 3 daily low. A sustained downside momentum will most likely see the GBP/USD aim for 1.7048, a level defended by the November 11 daily low, breaking of which will most likely see the pair gain additional momentum and head below the psychologically important 1.7000 handle and target the next potential support around 1.6900 figure, a level not seen since October of 2003. Indicators are favoring dollar longs with both negative momentum indicator and MACD trading below the zero line, while oversold Stochastic gives the sterling longs a chance to retaliate.

USD/CAD - Canadian dollar bulls continued to keep the pair below the psychologically important 1.1500 handle, a level defended by the 20-day SMA. As US dollar longs reverse Loonie's fortune and push the pair above 1.1500 figure, the next move to the upside will most likely see the greenback push the USD/CAD above the 1.1600 level and target Canadian dollar offers around 1.1697, a level established by the 23.6 Fib of the 1.2733-1.1373 CAD rally. A further advance on the part of the greenback longs will most likely see the USD/CAD retreat head toward the 1.1800 level, a level defended by the January 19 daily high at 1.1797. A further move to the upside will most likely see the greenback traders target the Canadian dollar offers around 1.1893, a level defended by the 38.2 Fib of the 1.2733-1.1373 CAD rally, which also acts as a gateway toward the psychologically important 1.2000 handle.
