The Euro has rejected key resistance at the $1.14 level, marked by price congestion and an impressive build in real forex trader volume. A simultaneous drop in forex volatility prices suggests that few expect the US Dollar will break significantly beyond key levels, and indeed an immediate break above $1.14 seems less likely. Near-term support starts at $1.1090 and the Euro may trade in a relatively narrow range in the week ahead.

The British Pound trades at potentially substantial resistance starting at $1.5650, and a break above leaves little comparable resistance until $1.6100. Near-term support comes in near $1.5400.

The US Dollar continues to trade above critical support versus the Japanese yen, marked by a substantial build in volume in the ¥118-119 range. A near-term break below seems less likely.

The Australian Dollar trades above significant volume-based resistance that now acts as support at $0.7800. There seems little in the way of further resistance until $0.8200, and indeed risks remain to the upside.

The EUR/AUD has failed to break above key resistance starting near $1.4400, and a continued hold below leaves focus on minor support near $1.4100. Ultimately, however, risks seem weighed to the downside.

The Euro/Sterling trades below meaningful price/volume congestion in the £0.7200-0.7400, and the lack of comparable support leaves focus on key lows near 0.7100 and the multi-year trough of 0.7010.
