US: Trump To Host Tech And Business Leaders At White House

With a test through 92.80 in Gilt, the UK 10yr Yield is now testing the 4.50% level, and there is some selling interest in Futures at the session high.

Looking further out in Yield terms:

• 4.45% = 93.21.
• 4.40% = 93.68.

There is some fairly heavy supply to take down for the UK which should still weigh into the bidding deadline and limit the pace of the upside, but near term risk is skewed to the upside.

A short-term bullish corrective phase in USDCAD remains in play despite sharp weakness Friday. On the recent run higher, price traded through the 50-day EMA at 1.3739 and this has been followed by a break of resistance at 1.3798, the Jun 23 high. Clearance of 1.3798 represents an important short-term bullish development, signaling scope for a stronger recovery. Sights are on 1.3920 next, the May 21 high. On the downside, initial firm support to watch lies at 1.3716, the 20-day EMA.

AUDUSD rallied well off the week’s lowest levels last week on broad USD weakness. Last week, the pair traded through both the 20- and 50-day EMAs. This undermined the recent bullish theme and signals the likely start of a corrective cycle. Note that support 0.6455 the Jul 17 low, has also been cleared. The breach strengthens a bearish threat and signals scope for an extension towards 0.6373, the Jun 23 low. Key resistance has been defined at 0.6625 the Jul 24 high. It also represents the bull trigger.
