Mid-Day Report: Risk Aversion Dominates as Greece Worries Continue

Risk aversion dominates the market today as global equities extend this week's slide. Investors are getting nervous as the Greek PSI debt swap deadline approaches. There have been rumors that Greece could extend the March 8 deadline to improve participation, but that was denied. EU Economic and Monetary Affairs Commissioner Rehn expressed his confidence that the PSI deal would be successfully concluded. But markets are clearly not comforted by the words. 12 of the creditors steering committee agreed to join in the debt swap deal so far, those declared should be holding around 20% of the bonds. It should be noted that Greece must achieve 66% participation to avoid disorderly default this month; above 75% to avoid activating CAC which could be deemed as default by ISDA.

EUR/USD Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3171; (P) 1.3206 (R1) 1.3252; More....
EUR/USD's fall from 1.3486 resumed after brief and weak recovery and reaches as low as 1.3120 so far in early US session. The break of near term channel support argues that whole rebound from 1.2625 has finished with three waves up to 1.3486 already. Intraday bias is back on the downside for 1.2974 support for confirmation. Also, noted that EUR/USD is still maintaining the pattern of lower highs, lower lows since 1.4939. Below 1.2974 will also suggest that fall from 1.4939 is resuming for another flow below 1.2625. On the upside, above 1.3241 minor resistances will turn bias neutral first.

Trade Idea Update: GBP/USD – Sell at 1.5880

Cable’s intra-day selloff suggests bearishness remains for the fall from 1.5993 top to bring a stronger retracement of recent upmove to 1.5750 and possibly to previous support at 1.5721, however, near term oversold condition should prevent sharp fall below 1.5690-00 and reckon another minor support at 1.5682 would limit downside, the British pound should stay well above support at 1.5644-48.

Trade Idea: EUR/JPY – Buy at 106.15

Although euro rebounded after falling to 106.92 yesterday, as long as resistance at 108.02 (yesterday’s high) holds, near term downside risk remains for retracement of recent upmove to 106.85-90 (38.2% Fibonacci retracement of 101.93-109.95), however, reckon 106.15-20 would limit downside and bring another rebound later.
