I’ve had a crush on someone for so long, but couldn’t find the strength to confess. After many therapy sessions I finally decided to be strong. That’s why I created this video to publicly confess…This video is dedicated to… You know who you are. Please watch till the end.

The pick of the day is EUR/USD who danced to a fresh year high in March, then pulled back a bit just to find support at the 50% Fibonacci level at 1.37150. The daily RSI is reaching neutrality area and the pair is trying to break through the hard-core resistance level of 2013 of 1.38 as we speak. A break above this level could open doors for more gains to 1.38449 and even back to this year’s high at 1.39336. Alternatively a break below the 61% Fibonacci level at 1.36369 will change our outlook to bearish with the fist alternative target at 1.34746 and the second one at 1.33543.

Today’s data sheet has already had mixed PMI reports from China, with the official reading showing improvements and the HSBC reading showing a fall in manufacturing output. Australia have left their interest rate on hold and also said that their currency is ‘uncomfortably high’, which actually led to a bit of a spike in the Aussie.

Later on we get a host of PMI numbers from Europe, the UK, the US and Canada, all of which have the potential to be market movers.

Fundamentals Overview

The final trading day of March slipped by quietly yesterday. Mr. UK AKA Sterling found a small amount of the strength that it usually does at the end of a month, but there wasn’t too much need to be glued to the screens.

European inflation numbers fell further than economists had predicted. Annualized inflation across the eurozone sits at just 0.5% now, having seen a 0.2% drop from last month, which analysts weren’t expecting. We don’t entirely follow the logic of the market though, which sold off pretty heavily on the idea that this would increase the likelihood of action on Thursday from the ECB.

In the UK George Osborne said yesterday that he was aiming for “full employment” in the UK, with Britain leading every other nation with the highest percentage of the labor force in work. The Chancellor may also have lost a few voters yesterday as the National Audit Office said the pricing of Royal Mail shares going  into their IPO last year was too cautious and didn’t yield best value for the taxpayer.

In the US session it was Janet Yellen that gave markets a comfort blanket to cling to. Ms Yellen said that the labor market was still weak and that extraordinary monetary policy was “still needed and will be for some time to come”. Markets liked the idea of this, and bought into equity markets in a hope that this was a hint that winding down QE might not be an entirely linear process.

Over in Asia, markets have been a little less concerned over Chinese debt defaults and have turned their focus  to North Korea, who have announced plans to roll out a new crypto currency. The Kim-coin will be accepted at all major retailers in the country, as well as state approved on-line retailers. The rogue state has said that its plans for the Kim-coin are entirely legitimate as their glorious leader was actually the first person to conceive of the idea of money, as well as inventing the Internet. As such he has divine rights to oversee all transactions.

In Japan the long planned sales tax hike has been implemented. The first of three planned hikes in the consumption tax has been greeted with mixed response, but overall the market has only fallen very slightly and it is far too early to tell what impact this will have on the mentality of consumers.
