Some economists noted that the details showed across the board weakness as the details showed deterioration in every sub-categories except suppliers' delivery times. Japan trade deficit widened further to JPY -1.82T in January versus expectation of JPY -1.56T. New Zealand PPI dropped -0.7% qoq, -0.4% yoy in Q4, far below consensus.

EUR/GBP Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 0.8215; (P) 0.8237; (R1) 0.8255; More....

As noted before, EUR/GBP should have formed a short term bottom at 0.8157 after drawing support from 0.8164 key support level. Intraday bias is mildly on the upside for 0.8349 resistance. Break of 0.8349 should indicate that the larger corrective pattern from 0.8768 has possibly completed and will turn outlook bullish for 0.8466 resistance next. On the downside, again, decisive break of 0.8164 will have larger bearish implication and would pave the way to 0.8 psychological level.

Forex Trade Ideas

Trade Idea: EUR/GBP - Buy at 0.8195

Euro's strong rebound from 0.8158 (this week's low) suggests a temporary low is possibly formed there and consolidation with mild upside bias remains for retracement of recent decline to 0.8280 but reckon resistance at 0.8300 would limit upside and price should falter well below resistance at 0.8350 (this month's high), bring another decline later.

Trade Idea: USD/CAD - Buy at 1.1000

Despite intra-day brief fall to 1.0910, current strong rebound suggests low is possibly formed there and consolidation with upside bias is seen for test of 1.1090, however, break there is needed to add credence to this view and signal the correction from 1.1224 top has ended, bring further gain to 1.1122-24 resistance, above there would confirm and extend further subsequent rise towards 1.1200
