Dollar Soft as Sentiments Remain Firm

Dollar remains broadly soft with the dollar index continuing to press 76 level. Talks on the Eurozone debt crisis continued as Institute of International Finance warned that private sector involvement in Greece's second bailout would cause "severe contagion" effects and there are "limits" to voluntary participation. It's believed that the IIF is proposing a loss of at most 40% on Greek but EU finance ministers head Juncker is pushing for a haircut of 50-60% in Greece second bailout. Meanwhile, the it's reported that German parliament will hold a full vote tomorrow on the proposals to leverage the EFSF. Without passing the vote, Merkel cannot agree to changes to the EFSF. There are still much uncertainties in the situation, at least before another EU summit on Wednesday.

USD/CAD Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.0001; (P) 1.0049; (R1) 1.0078; More.
USD/CAD drops further to as low as 1.0017 so far today and the break of 1.0043 confirmed resumption of the whole decline from 1.0656. Intraday bias is back on the downside and further fall should be seen to next cluster level at 0.9984 (61.8% retracement of 0.9406 to 1.0656 at 0.9884 and 61.8% projection of 1.0656 to 1.0043 from 1.0263 at 0.9984).

The Long-Awaited EU Summit – What Will It Deliver?

Rumors and headlines will continue to be thrown from everywhere until the EU leaders deliver a communiqué after the meeting at October 26. The latest news flow said that policymakers are threatening to trigger a formal default on Greek debt unless banks accept losses of as much as 140B euro on their holdings or a haircut of around 50%. Both Reuters and Bloomberg also quoted the need of around 100B euro for bank recapitalization. The Reuters report also mentioned a haircut of 50% but emphasized that 'several major areas of disagreement remain', especially in the EFSF plan and 'it will require vast amounts of hard negotiation between Sunday and Wednesday to strike a deal that convinces financial markets and Europe's major trading partners that the crisis is in hand' while according to the Bloomberg report policymakers are heading toward using the EFSF to 'guarantee bond sales as a way to extend its reach.

Both BoC and RBNZ Will Stay on the Sideline

Both we and the market anticipate the BOC to hold its policy rate at 1% in October for the 13th consecutive month.

We expect the central bank will deliver a statement that warns of downside risks in domestic and global economic outlook.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea: GBP/USD – Buy at 1.5905

Although cable has resumed recent rise after finding renewed buying interest at 1.5901 yesterday, lack of follow through buying on the break of previous resistance at 1.6001 and the retreat from 1.6008 suggest consolidation below this level would take place, near term downside risk has increased for retracement to the Ichimoku cloud top (now at 1.5914), however, renewed buying interest should emerge around previous support at 1.5901 and bring another rise later.
