EUR/USD

Extends short-term bears off 1.4536, after leaving a lower top at 1.4452 and completing 4-hour head and shoulders pattern.

Only regain of 1.4280/1.4300 would provide near-term relief.

USD/JPY

Remains in a near-term corrective mode after extending broader bear trend through previous low at 76.87, to test previous all-time low at 76.32, posted on 16 Mar and hit marginally fresh record low at 76.28. Corrective bounce has so far regained 77.81, just ahead of 78.00, strong barrier, break of which is required to ease bear pressure and open way for stronger recovery towards 78.16/45 next. Failure under 77.81, however, would signal a lower top and resumption of downtrend.

USD/CHF

Ends corrective attempt of the latest sharp fall that resulted in posting fresh record low at 0.7728 yesterday.
