Euro shows a downtrend tendency

The euro/dollar traders should pay attention to the German labor market report. The other day we got a good report from GfK, which showed an increase in the consumer confidence leading economy of European currency bloc.

The support levels: 1.3655-1.3625 and the resistance levels: 1.3685-1.3740.

Trading recommendations

There are no objective reasons for active euro, so its fall may be limited by the level 1.3618 or by the support at 1.3548. The growth to 1.3700-1.3719 should be regarded as an opportunity to open the short positions.

Yen

Euro shows a downtrend tendency

The attack to 102.82 is still actual still the market does not have enough power to lift it up. There should not be interesting publications from Japan. We can expect a moderate upward movement. We single out the following levels for today: the support - 102.16 – 101.78 and the resistance 102.73 – 103.37.

MACD is going down confirming the current downtrend.

Trading recommendations

The pair still did not choose the direction to go. The pair is under sellers' pressure and is going down. The pair has no power to break 102.83 upwards. If the pair continues descending it will go to 101.60. Shall the USD/JPY rise it will grow to 102.50.
