The Euro has broken major levels of volume-based support and currently trades just above noteworthy congestion near $1.0900. A larger breakdown leaves little in the way of a test of $1.08, while former support is current resistance starting at $1.10 and extending through $1.12.

The US Dollar has continued to fail at notable congestion in the ¥123.50-¥124.50 range, and a failure has likewise taken it below recent lows of ¥122.60. Further volume-based support at ¥121.50, but trading below leaves major congestion near ¥119 as the next level to watch.

The Australian Dollar has broken sharply below all notable volume-based support levels, and our trading bias remains in favor of selling until we see a meaningful rebound. Former congestion highs from January, 2009 offer near-term price targets at $0.7250, but there remains little noteworthy support until the psychologically significant $0.7000 level. Resistance is former support in the $0.7600-0.7650 zone.

The US Dollar bounced off of important support versus the Swiss Franc near the SFr0.9300 mark, and focus now turns to significant volume and price-based resistance starting at 0.9500.
