Daily Report: Dollar Rally Continues as Focus Turns to BoE, FOMC Minutes

Dollar extends recent rally with the dollar index hitting a 11-month high as focus turns to BoE and FOMC minutes today. The FOMC minutes are expected to struck a slightly more hawkish tone as Fed would be starting to prepare for rate hike next year. FOMC members would likely express some optimism that US is getting closer to full employment and price stability. But it's unlikely for the minutes to contain more messages, including update of the exit strategies etc. The more important event for dollar for the week would likely be the annual event of the Jackson Hole symposium beginning on Thursday. With the theme 'Reevaluating Labor Market Dynamics', we look forward in this year's conference to the Fed's latest view on US labor market slack as well as Fed Chair Janet Yellen's keynote speech on Friday.

Featured Technical Report

USD/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 102.63; (P) 102.78; (R1) 103.04; More...

USD/JPY rises to as high as 103.22 and the break of 103.08 resistance indicates that rebound from 100.82 is resuming. Intraday bias is now on the upside for 104.12 resistance. We'd be cautious on strong resistance from there. After all, the pair is bounded in range trading of 100.75/104.12 and we don't see any sign of breakout yet. Thus, we'd expect choppy sideway trading to continue in near term. On the downside, below 102.71 minor support will turn bias neutral again.

Trade Idea: USD/CAD - Buy at 1.0895

As the greenback has rebounded after holding above last week's low at 1.0860, suggesting as long as this level holds, consolidation with mild upside bias would be seen and gain to 1.0950-55 is likely, break there would signal retreat from 1.0986 has ended and bring retest of this level, once this resistance is penetrated, this would bring resumption of recent rise from 1.0621 low (tentatively wave c trough) for at least a correction of early decline towards 1.1000.
