    Temporary bullish unwinding targets 1.2870.

    EUR/USD is temporarily unwinding from oversold conditions, having recently

    broken under the major 2011 low and reaching a fresh low for the new-year at

    1.2666.

    The major trend remains bearish, holding within a declining channel range.

    While price activity holds here, we prefer to sell into forthcoming rallies, which

    are likely to be driven by temporary short covering.

    Watch for near-term resistance to come in at 1.2820/70, then 1.2920 and

    1.3000/77 (psychological/04 th Jan bearish candle pattern high). Only a sustained

    break above here will offer a stronger recovery into 1.3197 (see chart insert).

    Meanwhile, the bears need to push back beneath this years new low at 1.2666 to

    resume the major downtrend into 1.2600-1.2530 (confluence target).

    Inversely, the USD Index has triggered a bearish dark cloud signal having

    carved out a 12-month high (see chart).

    The move coincided with old resistance at 81.31/44 (Nov 2010/Jan 2011 peaks)

    and is likely to trigger further unwinding from overbought conditions into

    80.00/79.50 (psychological/pivot level). Expect this level to help re-launch the

    greenbacks recovery (which was already up 10%), which is part of our bullish

    cycle strategy over the multi-month horizon.

    Hourly range remains intact for now.

    GBP/USD is dominated by the recent failure to break out of a tight

    rangebound hourly structure between 1.5780 and 1.5362.

    Although we perceive Sterling as a relative safe haven and also view

    the large devaluation of 2008 as being sufficient, there is still scope for a

    minor downside bias to emerge, back towards the long-term trend-line

    support, currently near 1.5150.

    With this in mind we could trade the short-term range or await a fall to

    long-term trend-line support. Given the general US Dollar positive

    environment, it is deemed better to wait for higher levels to attempt

    possible short exposure.

    Also, given the negative bias in EUR/GBP, it is anticipated that any

    weakness in GBP/USD will be less dynamic than US Dollar strength

    seen elsewhere.

    Bears break from multi-day range extends the retracement (PIR).

    USD/JPY has weakened sharply beneath 78.24 (DeMark Level) , as price broke

    from a multi-day trading range (see hourly chart below).

    Confirmation beneath 77.25 (pivot level) now helps trigger a third price

    retracement, that we had been expecting, back to pre-intervention levels and

    potentially even a new post world war record low beneath 75.35.

    Sentiment in the option markets continues to suggest that USD/JPY buying

    pressure remains overcrowded as everyone continues to try and be the first to call

    the market bottom, within the end of this multi-year contracting pattern.

    This may first inspire a temporary, but dramatic, price spike throughpsychological levels at 75.00 and perhaps even sub-74.00. Such a move would

    help flush out a number of downside barriers and stop-loss orders, which wouldcreate healthy price vacuum for a potential major reversal.

    The medium/long-term view remains bullish, as USD/JPY verges toward a major

    long-term 40-year cycle upside reversal. Expect key cycle inflection points to

    trigger over the next few weeks, offering a sustained move above our upside

    trigger level at 80.00/60, then 82.00 and 83.30.

    Return towards the 200 DMA favoured medium-term.

    0.9500, our proposed first target has been met, thus we have removed

    our prior sell recommendation at 0.9610.

    USD/CHF has tested close to the 0.9600 region where it was

    anticipated a degree of supply may manifest. In any case the daily

    structure present since 0.8568 suggests that the rising phase seen

    since 0.7071 is reaching completion.

    In the absence of the SNB, it is anticipated that a return to the 200 day

    moving average, currently at 0.8708 would be possible, ahead of a

    further phase higher.

    However, USD/CHF continues to be a tied to the fate of EUR/CHF and

    thus the ability of the SNB to successfully maintain its floor in EUR/CHF

    at 1.2000. Fresh highs are still anticipated in 10 year Italian sovereign

    yields, maintaining downside pressure on USD/CHF.

    10 year yields in Spain and Italy are currently trading at 5.563% and

    7.140% versus 6.478% and 7.355%, before the US Dollar based swap

    agreement. These same yields were trading at 5.665% and 7.110%

    respectively yesterday.

    Weakening from pattern ceiling.

    USD/CAD is weakening from its triangle pattern ceiling, which coincided with

    an intraday DeMark exhaustion signal and daily bearish evening star candle

    pattern (see hourly/daily charts).

    However, the chart structure remains positive and so we prefer to wait for a

    strong directional confirmation above 1.0425 before initiating a buy trade setup.

    Until then, intraday traders might find a fast hit and run short trad e opportunity

    back into key support at 1.0080 (see hourly chart).

    Meanwhile, the bulls need to push back above 1.0425 and 1.0524 (25 Nov swing

    high), in order to trigger a larger breakout from the rates m ulti-month triangle

    pattern.

    In terms of the big picture, a directional confirmation above 1.0680 is still needed

    to unlock the recovery into 1.0850 plus. This would extend the upside breakout

    from the rates ending triangle pattern, whi ch was part of a major Elliott wave

    cycle (see top chart insert).

    EUR/CAD, which tends to share a positive correlation with EUR/USD, is

    temporarily unwinding from oversold conditions. However, the previous

    structural breach under the rates multi -month distribution pattern continues tofavour further downside pressure into 1.2760 (10 th Jan 2010).

    Capped under 200-day average (1.0405).

    AUD/USD remains capped under its 200-day moving average which has been

    holding steady around 1.0405 for over 3 months.

    While the recent daily bearish evening star pattern continues to weigh beneath

    resistance at 1.0387, we remain watchful for short opportunities.

    Our cycle analysis remains bearish and favours downside pressure back into

    parity, then 0.9862 (15 th Dec low) and 0.9664/20 (23 rd Nov low).

    Keep in mind that such a move would signal a break from the multi-month

    distribution pattern and the rates 3 year uptrend (see chart insert).

    Elsewhere, the Aussie dollar has weakened sharply against its neighboring New

    Zealand counterpart. Near-term price activity is breaking from a multi-month

    trading range and is testing its 200-day MA which is currently trading at 1.2970.Expect further setbacks over the multi-day/week horizon into support at 1.2834

    and 1.2319.

    The Aussie dollar remains steady against the Japanese yen, while still holding

    within its neutral contracting trading range. Watch for key support at 76.98 to

    unlock further downside into 74.81.

    Towards 116.84 now favoured.

    GBP/JPY saw a clear break under the 119.00 low on Friday ending

    hopes of a continuation of the recovery structure from this same level.

    This failure to hold over 119.00 now suggests a re-test of the regionclose to 116.84. Strong support is anticipated close to this level, should

    weakness persist.

    In a similar manner to EUR/JPY, there are initial signs of exhaustion

    evident in the hourly timeframe. However, as mentioned above, a

    further swing lower cannot be ruled out, so the formulation of a long

    strategy is best done closer to 116.84, or in the event that we see a

    durable swing higher.

    Our longer-term view is based on the potential for a much largerrecovery to develop with scope for a return to 163.09 and then

    potentially on to 192.65. As suggested above, signs of basing are still

    not evident in the medium-term timeframe.

    Potential longer-term region of value.

    EUR/JPY is stabilising in the hourly perspective after briefly breaking the

    support of a falling wedge in the daily timeframe. Given that movement

    in EURJPY is largely driven by movement in EUR/USD, there is still

    scope for a re-test of the region near the all-time low at 88.97.

    However, a break over the resistance of the falling wedge is required,

    currently at 99.80, before a more lasting recovery may take place.

    As with any pair that includes the EUR, we will continue to monitor

    Italian yields, anticipating a test of the 7.500% level in the 10 year

    maturity. Longer-term, structure in the Italian 10 year suggests that

    7.500% may not be a durable ceiling, with scope for yields beyond

    7.500%.

    Our medium-term outlook is driven by the theory, that in the absence of

    further stresses out of the core Euro-Zone, it would be expected that a

    degree of support would be found close to current levels for a longer-

    term recovery.

    Pullback sought to enter short positions.

    EUR/GBP remains in a likely corrective phase in the hourly timeframe.

    Structure is still considered bearish and thus a lower high is sought in

    the region of 0.8300. Medium-term we continue to seek a return

    towards 0.8068 and potentially lower.

    The break under long-term support from 0.8068 has also seen this pair

    trading in a manner that is consistent with a trending market, featuring

    impulsive moves more frequently and fewer false breaks. This is partly

    attributed to the breakdown in EUR/USD under 1.3146, which has

    assisted short positioning in other EUR crosses too.

    Of continued concern is the elevated yield environment, particularly in

    the Italian sovereign bond market. Our expectation of further downside

    is made on the assumption that, in a rising yield environment in the core

    Euro-Zone, Sterling will be deemed as a safe haven of sorts. Focus

    remains on the Italian bond market where yields are once again trading

    over 7.000%, with a host of rollover auctions scheduled for the first half

    of the year.

    Further weakness anticipated following push under 1.2130.

    EUR/CHF saw a test under the key low at 1.2131 yesterday. Hourly

    structure continues to suggest further weakness ahead, with scope for a

    re-test of 1.2000 and then potentially 1.1800 thereafter. The only clear

    risk to our trading bias is the potential for a spate of intervention by the

    SNB to protect the region near 1.2000. However, holding back the

    remainder of the FX market may be a step too far for the SNB.

    We maintain our bearish bias, given the price action in the weekly

    timeframe, where a failure to break over the 50 week moving average

    leads us to conclude that the larger down-trend is not yet complete.

    Elevated yields in the Italian sovereign market are still being closely

    monitored, with an expectation of a test of the 7.500% region in the 10

    year maturity. Given the longer-term structure, it is doubtful that 7.500%

    will cap this 10 year rate.

    In an environment where 10 year Italian yields are trading at, or near,

    7.000% it is likely that the Swiss Franc will see a degree of demand

    despite the low deposit rates available.

    DAILY TECHNICAL REPORT 10 January, 2012

    200-day average continues to maintain pressure.

    Gold is re-testing its 200-day average, which was recently broken for the first time

    in 3 years. The move was triggered by a multi-month triangle pattern breakout (see

    both daily and intraday charts).

    A number of bargain hunting trend -followers will still be watching for any

    potential recovery back above the 200-day average which is currently trading at

    $1634.

    Failure to do so will heighten risk for a much larger decline that we have been

    anticipating, if a weekly close beneath $1530 is confirmed. Our cycle analysis

    continues to highlight downside targets into $1300 and perhaps even $1040-1000

    (12-year channel floor/see top chart insert).

    Speculative (net long) flows also support this view having recently breached a key

    downside level which may threaten over 2 years of sizeable long gold positions.

    This will trigger a temporary, but dramatic setback that would ultimately offer a

    unique buying opportunity into this coming summer of 2012.

    Holding beneath the $30.0000 level.

    Silver s weak recovery from oversold conditions is holding beneath key

    psychological resistance at $30.0000 (see intraday chart below).

    Near-term support at 28.6000 acts as our downside trigger level that would help

    unlock a resumption lower into 26.1600 (29 th Dec-hammer pattern low).

    Macro price structure continues to focus on the downside risks, following the

    major sell-off in September. Such a dramatic move traditionally produces volatile

    trading ranges. This allows the market to have enough time to recover and

    accumulate renewed buying interest.

    Expect a large trading range to hold between $37.0000 - 26.0700 over the multi-

    week/month horizon, with downside macro risk into $21.5165 (61.8% Fib-1999

    bull market) and $20.0000. This would still maintain silvers long -term uptrendand help offer a potential buying opportunity for the eventual resumption higher.

    Continue to watch the gold-silver mint ratio (see top chart insert) which has

    now accelerated higher by 70%, suggesting further risk aversion over the next

    few weeks. This also helps explain recent divergences between gold and silver.
