Key quotes
"High yielders suffered the most, with EUR and GBP losing most of their latest gains and leaving the EUR/USD again below the critical Fibonacci level at 1.2780."
"First round of US data shows jobless unemployment claims fell to a 14 year low bringing some relief across the different boards; nevertheless, American indexes point to open with strong losses, meaning once more, panic will lead currencies."
"Technically the 1 hour chart shows EUR/USD found buyers on an approach to 1.2700, with indicators heading now higher after crossing their midlines to the downside."
"20 SMA stands flat a few pips above the mentioned Fibonacci resistance, while the 4 hours chart shows momentum aiming to regain the upside after correcting overbought readings."
"For now bulls dominate the pair albeit a break below 1.2700 will send market the other way around."
