Aussie Surges above 1.1012 on Strong Inflation Data whilst the Buck Remains Weak Broadly

The Australian dollar took the center stage this morning as aussie surged above previous high of 1.1012 to a fresh 29-year high of 1.1063 after the release of higher-than-expected Australian inflation data, Q2 CPI came in at 0.9% q/q and 3.6% y/y versus the forecast of 0.7% y/y and 3.4% y/y respectively, closely watched trimmed mean and weighted median numbers from RBA were also higher than market consensus. Traders were selling the greenback across the board anyway and aussie became an obvious choice, with the figure came in well above the inflation target of Reserve Bank of Australia, economists see the central bank may not cut rates as early as previously anticipated. Some offers at 1.1050 were absorbed but more offers from big Australian names are reported at 1.1080 and 1.1100 with bids from various parties tipped at 1.1000-10 and also 1.0950 with stops building up below 1.0950 and 1.0930.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea: EUR/USD – Buy at 1.4415

Despite intra-day marginal rise to 1.4537 (yesterday’s high was 1.4526), as the single currency has retreated, suggesting consolidation below this level would take place and pullback to 1.4431-40 (50% Fibonacci retracement of 1.4325-1.4537 and previous resistance) is likely, however, renewed buying interest should emerge around the Ichimoku cloud (now at 1.4405-14), bring another rise later.

Trade Idea: USD/JPY – Buy at 77.55

Although the greenback has remained under pressure and marginal weakness to 77.50/55 is likely, near term oversold condition should prevent sharp fall below there and risk has increased for a corrective rebound later, above the Kijun-Sen (now at 77.93) would bring test of the Ichimoku cloud (now at 78.30-32) but only break of resistance at 78.75 would signal a temporary low is in place, bring retracement of recent decline towards 79.05/10 later.
