USD/JPY preparing to attack 100.00 level !

The USD/JPY appears to have run into a slight headwind in the short term on the daily chart, at the 96.60 area, with the pair having tested this price level on three occasions over the last 10 days, before pulling back.

Gold bugs finally had something to cheer about today as April gold futures finally awoke from their recent slumbers, trading higher in today’s session, and moving to test the $1600 per ounce price level. The catalyst for this modest recovery for gold was from the ECB, with suggestions that inflationary pressure was easing in the Eurozone, but hardly sufficient to spark a reversal in the longer term trend!

The EUR/GBP continued to struggle at the 0.8750 area once again yesterday, ending the trading session with a doji candle, sending a clear signal of indecision at this level, which has been duly validated in this morning’s early trading session, with the pair retreating lower, and moving back below the 0.8700 region at the time of writing.
