USD/CHF Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.9192; (P) 0.9266; (R1) 0.9408; More...
Intraday bias in USD/CHF stays mildly on the upside at this point. Current rise from 0.9070 is seen as the third leg of the corrective pattern from 0.9058 low. Further rally would be seen to 0.9439 resistance and possibly above. But overall, outlook will stay bearish as long as 0.9474 fibonacci level holds, and another decline through 0.9058 is expected at a later stage. On the downside, below 0.9256 minor support will turn intraday bias neutral first.
In the bigger picture, fall from 1.1046 (2022 high) should still be in progress with 38.2% retracement of 1.0146 to 0.9058 at 0.9474 intact. Rejection by 55 week EMA was a medium term bearish sign. Break of 0.9058 will resume such decline towards 0.8756 support (2021 low). But overall, such fall is still as a leg in the long term range pattern from 1.0342 (2016 high). So, downside should be contained by 0.8756 to bring reversal.
AUD/USD Daily Report
Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.6569; (P) 0.6640; (R1) 0.6691; More...
Intraday bias in AUD/USD remains neutral for the moment as range trading continues above 0.6563. Focus stays on whether 0.6546 fibonacci level would provide strong support to bring reversal. On the upside, firm break of 0.6715 resistance will indicate short term bottoming, and turn bias back to the upside for rebound to 55 day EMA (now at 0.6787) and above. However, sustained break of 0.6546 will carry larger bearish implication and target 0.6169 low.
In the bigger picture, rise from 0.6169 (2022 low) has completed at 0.7156, after rejection by 55 month EMA (now at 0.7158). Deeper decline would then be see back to 61.8% retracement of 0.6169 to 0.7156 at 0.6546, even as a corrective fall. Sustained break there will raise the chance of long term down trend resumption through 0.6169 low.
USD/CAD Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3681; (P) 1.3747; (R1) 1.3835; More....
Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral first and consolidation from 1.3860 could extend. But further rally is expected as long as 1.3650 support holds. On the upside, break of 1.3860 will resume the rally from 1.3261 to retest 1.3976 high. However, firm break of 1.3650 will turn bias to the downside for 55 day EMA (now at 1.3552).
In the bigger picture, the up trend from 1.2005 (2021 low) is still in progress. Break of 1.3976 will confirm resumption and target 61.8% projection of 1.2401 to 1.3976 from 1.3261 at 1.4234. Firm break there will pave the way to long term resistance zone at 1.4667/89 (2016, 2020 highs). On the downside, break of 1.3261 support is needed to confirm medium term topping. Otherwise, outlook will remain bullish even in case of deep pull back.
EUR/GBP Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.8713; (P) 0.8779; (R1) 0.8838; More...
EUR/GBP recovered after breaching 0.8720 support and intraday bias is turned neutral again first. On the upside, break of 0.8842 resistance will argue that the corrective pull back from 0.8977 has completed. Further rise should be seen back to 0.8924 resistance and above. However, sustained break of 0.8720 will bring deeper decline to 0.8545 instead.
In the bigger picture, outlook is rather mixed for now, except that price actions from 0.9267 (2022 high) are part of the long term range pattern from 0.9499 (2020 high). With 0.8720 support intact, rise from 0.8545 is in favor to continue through 0.8977. However, firm break of 0.8720 will argue that such rebound has completed, and open up deeper fall through this support level.
EUR/AUD Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.5853; (P) 1.5975; (R1) 1.6100; More...
EUR/AUD is staying in range below 1.6200 and intraday bias remains neutral first. Downside of retreat should be contained by 1.5826 support to bring another rally. Break of 1.6200 will resume the larger rise from 1.4281 to 61.8% projection of 1.4281 to 1.5976 from 1.5254 at 1.6302 next. However, firm break of 1.5826 will confirm short term topping, and bring deeper fall to 55 day EMA (now at 1.5677).
In the bigger picture, the strong support from 55 week EMA (now at 1.5404) is raising the chance of bullish trend reversal. Focus is now on 1.6434 cluster resistance (38.2% retracement of 1.9799 to 1.4281 at 1.6389). Sustained break there should confirm that whole down trend from 1.9799 (2020 high) has completed. Further rally should then be seen to 61.8% retracement at 1.7691. However, rejection by this cluster resistance will make medium term outlook neutral at best.
GBP/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 158.67; (P) 161.41; (R1) 163.59; More...
GBP/JPY's break of 160.02 indicates resumption of fall from 165.99. The development also argues that this decline is part of the larger correction from 172.11. Intraday bias is back on the downside for 156.70 support first. Break will target 155.33 low. For now, risk will remain on the downside as long as 164.12 resistance holds, in case of recovery.
In the bigger picture, as long as 38.2% retracement of 123.94 (2020 low) to 172.11 (2022 high) at 153.70 holds, medium term bullishness is retained. That is, larger up trend from 123.94 (2020 low) is still in progress. Break of 172.11 high to resume such up trend is expected at a later stage.

EUR/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 138.74; (P) 141.86; (R1) 144.23; More....
Intraday bias in EUR/JPY remains on the downside for the moment. Fall from 145.55 is seen as the third leg of the whole correction from 148.38 high. Deeper decline would be seen to for retesting 137.37 low, and then 135.40 fibonacci level. On the upside, above 142.14 minor resistance will turn intraday bias neutral first, and could bring recovery. But near term risk will remain on the downside as long as 4 hour 55 EMA (now at 143.47) holds
In the bigger picture, as long as 55 week EMA (now at 139.54) holds, larger up trend from 114.42 (2020 low) is still in progress for 149.76 long term resistance. However, firm break of 55 week EMA will bring deeper fall to 38.2% retracement of 114.42 to 148.38 at 135.40. Sustained break there will raise the chance of trend reversal, and target 61.8% retracement at 127.39.
Euro and Swiss Franc Struggle as Markets Eye ECB Rate Decision Amid Ongoing Uncertainty
Daily Report:
Despite regaining some ground in the Asian session, Euro continues to trade as the week's weakest performer alongside Swiss Franc. Today's ECB rate announcement is the primary focus for investors, as uncertainty looms over the extent of the anticipated rate hike. The SNB's efforts to stabilize the markets in response to Credit Suisse's problems may have temporarily curbed negative sentiment, but the potential trigger for a crisis remains unknown.
In its February statement, ECB unambiguously signaled its intention to increase rates by 50bps at today's meeting, a message reiterated repeatedly by officials, including President Christine Lagarde. However, following recent market turmoil, investors are now pricing in only a 30% chance of the 50bps hike, with a more modest 25bps increase seeming increasingly plausible. In addition to the rate decision, market participants will be closely monitoring ECB's updated economic projections, adding further complexity to the day's proceedings.
Elsewhere in the currency markets, Yen has emerged as the week's strongest performer so far, due to rally resumption yesterday. Surprisingly, commodity currencies such as Australian Dollar, New Zealand Dollar, and Canadian Dollar have also demonstrated resilience, albeit with limited gains. As these currencies are not at the epicenter of the market selloff, their performance has been relatively stable. Meanwhile, Dollar remains mixed as traders grapple with ongoing volatility in both treasury yields and stocks, leaving them hesitant to fully commit to a particular direction.
Technically, EUR/CHF has exhibited a robust rebound from 0.9704 (yesterday's low), but that could be attributed more to Swiss Franc's own problems. Despite this recovery, downside risk remains as long as it trades below 55 day EMA (now at 0.9901). The prevailing decline from 1.0095 peak is expected to persist, potentially extending towards the 61.8% retracement level of 0.9407 to 1.0095 at 0.9670. A further decline may even prompt a retest of the 0.9407 low. However, sustained break above the 55-day EMA would invalidate near-term bearishness and could trigger a more substantial rally towards the 1.0095 resistance level.
In Asia, at the time of writing, Nikkei is down -0.97%. Hong Kong HSI is down -1.25%. China Shanghai SSE is down -0.49%. Singapore Strait Times is down -0.78%. Japan 10-year JGB yield is down -0.0161 at 0.300. Overnight, DOW dropped -0.87%. S&P 500 dropped -0.70%. NASDAQ rose 0.05%. 10-year yield dropped -0.146 to 3.492, after hitting as low as 3.388.
Credit Suisse to borrow from SNB to calm markets
Credit Suisse's measures to ease investor concerns over potential contagion and a banking crisis have failed to lift market pressures, with the Asian markets remaining under pressure.
The bank announced it would borrow up to CHF50B from the SNB, calling it a "decisive action to pre-emptively strengthen its liquidity." The loan and a repurchase of billions of dollars of Credit Suisse debt aim to manage its liabilities and interest payment expenses.
Earlier, in a joint statement with the Swiss financial market regulator FINMA, the SNB assured the markets that the Credit Suisse had met "strict capital and liquidity requirements" and said, "there are no indications of a direct risk of contagion for Swiss institutions due to the current turmoil in the US banking market."
"If necessary, the SNB will provide CS with liquidity," FINMA and SNB said.
Japan posted record February trade deficit
In February, Japan exports rose 6.5% yoy to JPY 7655B, below expectation of 7.1% yoy. Imports rose 8.3% yoy to JPY 8552B, below expectation of 12.2% yoy. Consequently, the country experienced its largest February trade deficit to date at JPY -897.7B.
The breakdown of trade relations painted an interesting picture, with the US and China displaying contrasting trends. Exports to the US surged by 14.9% yoy, while imports increased by 6.6%, resulting in a favorable surplus of JPY 530.5B. However, trade with China proved more challenging, as exports dipped by -10.9% yoy and imports saw a marginal decrease of 0.6% yoy, culminating in a deficit of JPY -209.8B.
On a more positive note, seasonally adjusted figures highlighted a 4.4%mom rise in exports to JPY 8146B, accompanied by a 3.0% mom drop in imports to JPY 9336B. As a result, trade deficit narrowed to JPY -1191B, outperforming the expected JPY -1460B.
Australia employment grew 64.6k in Feb, unemployment rate dropped to 3.5%
Australia employment grew 64.6k in February, well above expectation of 48.5k. Full-time employment rose 74.9k. Part-time employment decreased -10.3k.
Unemployment rate dropped from 3.7% to 3.5%, below expectation of 3.6%. Participation rate rose 0.1% to 66.6%. Monthly hours worked rose 3.9% mom.
Bjorn Jarvis, ABS head of labour statistics said: "with employment increasing by around 65,000 people, and the number of unemployed decreasing by 17,000 people, the unemployment rate fell to 3.5 per cent. This was back to the level we saw in December.
"The February increase in employment follows consecutive falls in December and January. In January, this reflected a larger than usual number of people waiting to start a new job, the majority of whom returned to or commenced their jobs in February.
NZ GDP contracted -0.6% qoq in Q4, RBNZ may slow tightening
New Zealand's Q4 GDP contracted by -0.6% qoq, missing the expected contraction of 0.2% qoq. The primary industries fell by 1.3%, service industries were down by 0.1%, and goods-producing industries were down by 0.3%.
Although the Finance Minister Grant Robertson acknowledged that the GDP could fluctuate as the country continues to recover from COVID, he also highlighted that the economy is nearly 6.7% larger than pre-pandemic levels, outpacing other countries.
Despite this, the GDP figure is significantly below RBNZ's forecast of 0.7% growth, suggesting that the central bank may not need to be as aggressive with its tightening in the future. As a result, economists are now predicting that the RBNZ will opt for a more modest 25bps rate hike in April instead of the previously expected 50bps.
Looking ahead
The main event is ECB's rate decision and press conference. Elsewhere, Swiss SECO will release economic forecasts. Canada will publish wholesale sales. US jobless claims, Philly Fed survey, housing starts and building permits, and import prices will be featured.

Further Downside in DAX Impulsive Elliott Wave Decline
DAX ended cycle from 9.28.2022 low in wave ((1)) at 15707.61 with internal subdivision as 5 waves. Index is now correcting that cycle within wave ((2)) in larger degree 3, 7, or 11 swing. Internal subdivision of wave ((2)) is unfolding as a zigzag Elliott Wave structure. A zigzag is an (A)-(B)-(C) structure where wave (A) and (C) both subdivide in 5 waves. Wave (A) of ((2)) is now in progress as 5 waves. Down from wave ((1)), wave ((i)) ended at 15524.85 and rally in wave ((ii)) ended at 15667.21. Index resumes lower in wave ((iii)) towards 14913.98, and wave ((iv)) ended at 15128.25. Final leg lower wave ((v)) ended at 14887.44 which completed wave 1.
Corrective rally in wave 2 has ended at 15272.11 and the Index resumes lower in wave 3 towards 14702.91. Wave 4 is proposed complete at 1488.06. Expect the Index to see a few more lows before ending wave 5 and this should complete wave (A) in larger degree. Afterwards, the Index should rally in wave (B) to correct cycle from 3.7.2023 high before it resumes lower again in wave (C) of ((2)). Near term, as far as pivot at 15707.6 high stays intact, expect rally to fail in 3, 7, or 11 swing for further downside.
