I sold EURSEK at 8.7315 expecting Risksbank to keep rates on hold while the ECB leans toward easing in 2013 as recession lingers. I added to the position at 8.6409 as a corrective rebound launched in early January faltered. My initial target of 8.4994 has been met and I am now aiming for 8.4150.
I also continue to hold short GBPUSD at 1.5662. Prices have turned lower anew after a brief recovery and I will continue to hold short, targeting 1.5440. A stop-loss will be activated on a daily close above 1.5878.
