USD Trading Outlook (25-06-2015)

easy-forex.com.au

Renewed Grexit fears sustained any EUR recovery attempt at 1.1230 mark. Stock markets are also under pressure over the Greek Circus show. Major US indices closed lower overnight and were followed by general weakness in Asian equities since negotiations yesterday between Troika and Greece still did not reach any significant conclusions.

As a result, the market is ranging without any clear direction. USDJPY is attempting higher highs, however trades within a tight range. Sterling paused its 2 day sell off at 1.5690 support.

Data wise, the highlights today are US spending and consumption, initial jobless claims, and services PMI later.

Overall the market seems to be very choppy today with a mild positive tone for USD demand. Situations like these frustrate long term traders and are more suitable for intraday trading.
