China sets 7% growth as bottom line, eyes fresh stimulus
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang provided a juicy headline during Tuesday, suggesting the country may have to rethink its 'non-stimulatory' monetary policies should the economic growth fall below 7%, according to local media reports. Mr Li said that 7% is seen as the 'bottom line', and if target not met, there will be other options on the table as the government cannot afford the growth rate to deteriorate further, Xinhua News Agency reported. According to Beijing News, Mr. Li added: "As long as the economic growth rate, employment and other indicators don't slip below our lower limit and inflation doesn't exceed our upper limit we'll focus on restructuring and pushing reforms." As Ambrose Evans-Pritchard from the Telegraph notes: "Mr Li's comments suggest a major shift in policy by Beijing, which has deliberately engineered a slow-down over recent months by squeezing credit. The government has been rattled by upheavals in the interbank market and has begun to heed warnings that the crackdown has gone too far."

According to the German finance ministry, Greece has completed 21 out of the 22 measures required by the international lenders in exchange for the next bailout payment. The country still has to implement the “mobility scheme” which involves a transfer or dismissal of 12,500 public workers within a year. The measure is expected to be fulfilled until tomorrow. Ryan Littlestone from ForexLive believes that the Troika will finally approve the next bailout payment for Greece, despite the impediments: “Seeing as they've never backed down from hand over cash to Greece there's little chance of this episode failing.”

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: Recent price acceleration on the upside suggests short-term positive bias. Possible penetration above the resistance level at 1.3230 (R1) is liable to open way towards to our initial targets at 1.3248 (R2) and 1.3264 (R3). Downwards scenario: Risk of price depreciation is seen below the support level at 1.3197 (S1). A fall below it might prolong medium-term weakness towards to next support at 1.3180 (S2) and any further market decline would then be targeting final support at 1.3162 (S3).

In a clear sign of temporary victory by 'Abenomics' radical policies, Japan printed the sharpest rise in core inflation in almost 5 years, with the read out at +0.4% y/y vs 0.3% exp. The rest of indicators were also encouraging. ne of the top priorities by Japan is to end a 15-year deflation cycle, so that the country can start to develop a self-sustaining recovery. In large part, this is the main reason behind the radical ultra-loose monetary policy being currently deployed by the BoJ, which has committed to double the amount the central bank purchases in Japanese government debt. The country will continue to actively assess how these increases in price pressure - still minimal - are having an impact on the mindset of the population, potentially leading to support more credit, spending and rise in salaries. However, as IFR Markets Editor Amanda Tan notes, "a planned sales tax hike in April next year - from 5% to 8% - poses a downside risk to spending & sentiment, particularly if wages don't start to rise."

Japan's PM Abe rethinks sales tax hike; inflation case strengthens?
Japan's most significant fiscal reform in years, that is, a planned hike from 5% to 8% in sales tax by April 2014, faces the prospects of being delayed or watered down as concerns mount the tax increase may do more harm than good to the delicate economic recovery in the country. According to a report from Reuters earlier on Monday: "PM Abe says he will decide in the autumn whether to proceed with the first part of the two-stage plan after gauging the state of the economic recovery, especially GDP data that is due on Sept 9."

RBA Stevens speech recap: Still some scope to ease after last CPI
Governor of the RBA, Glenn Stevens, is giving his annual speech to The Anika Foundation Luncheon in Sydney, and some explosive comments are now crossing the wires. The topic of the speech is current issues in economic policy. According to RBA's Stevens, long rise in mining investment is now over, saying that coming fall could be "quite big". Stevens said that easing is working to shift investors to taking some more risk, adding that shift in risk taking not yet a serious impediment to further policy easing. Stevens remained dovish on his tone, saying that "still has some scope to ease after inflation data." On the Aussie value, Stevens wouldn't be surprised if it falls further, as "the fall makes economic sense."

Mixed data spur controversies on Chinese PMI data restrictions
Last month, the National Bureau of Statistics restrained industry-specific data upon publication of Purchasing Manufacturing indexes. Under the premise implying not enough resources were available to make such analysis public, the Chinese opted to suspend relevant information indicative of this year’s economic performance. As stated by the vice president of the China Federation of Logistics & Purchasing, “We now have 3,000 samples in the survey, and from a technical point of view, time is very limited — there are many industries, you know”. While Chinese provide zero point zone explanations, speculation concerning the reasons behind such measures continues to surge.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: Possible upside penetration looks limited now to the next resistive barrier at 1.3288 (R1). Appreciation above this mark might gradually push the pair toward to next targets at 1.3304 (R2) and 1.3319 (R3) in potential. Downwards scenario: As long as price stays below the next resistance level our technical outlook would be negative. Next on tap is support level at 1.3252 (S1). Penetration below this mark would suggest next targets at 1.3238 (S2) and 1.3223 (S3).

Upwards scenario: Possible buying interest might push the pair to attack next resistive measure at 1.5187 (R1). Clearance here is required to resume upside formation, targeting marks at 1.5207 (R2) and 1.5226 (R3) later on today. Downwards scenario: On the other hand, loss of our support level at 1.5146 (S1) would open road for a market decline towards to our next target at 1.5128 (S2). Any further price weakening would then be limited to final support for today at 1.5109 (S3).

Downwards scenario: On the other hand, clearance of our support at 98.11 (S1) is required to determine negative intraday bias and enable lower target at 97.90 (S2) and then any further market depreciation would suggest final support at 97.69 (S3).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: Neutral hourly studies point towards further consolidation, with a break of next resistive structure at 1.3293 (R1) is required to spark stronger upside action. In such scenario we would suggest our next initial targets 1.3304 (R2) and 1.3316 (R3). Downwards scenario: Risk of market depreciation is seen below the next support level at 1.3263 (S1).

Upwards scenario: Market price penetrated above the Friday’s high. On the way is key resistive measure at 1.5309 (R1), break here is required to achieve higher targets at 1.5330 (R2) and 1.5350 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside next challenge is seen at 1.5248 (S1). Breakthrough here would open road for a recovery action towards to our initial targets at 1.5233 (S2) and 1.5212 (R3) in potential.

TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Low
Upwards scenario: Market players may prefer to stay neutral today during limited tier one macroeconomic data flow, though a break of our resistance at 99.15 (R1) would suggest next targets at 99.32 (R2) and 99.49 (R3). Downwards scenario: Further recovery phase is limited now to the next supportive barrier at 98.65 (S1). Only loss here would enable our intraday targets at 98.50 (S2) and 98.34 (S3) on the downside.

AUD/USD rallies initially after RBA, but a lot of resistance looms
The AUD/USD came into the RBA decision very oversold and ready squeeze the bears. Despite the initial pop, technicians say there’s plenty of resistance to conquer before the bulls take control of the macro picture. The initial positive reaction following the RBA’s 25 basis point rate cut appears to be the market weeding out those shorts who were banking on a 50 basis point cut. While nobody knows exactly how much money was being bet against the AUD/USD, but the mercilous selling that led to the extreme oversold readings made it quite apparent that the short-Aussie trade was extremely crowded – and the markets do not treat crowded trades well typically. The good news for bears that were not over-leveraged is that the RBA hinted that they stand at the ready to act further if growth continues to be a problem and inflation remains benign.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Upwards scenario: Despite the current consolidation pattern, EURUSD remains in uptrend formation on the bigger picture. Clearance of our next resistance level at 1.3272 (R1) would suggest initial targets at 1.3282 (R2) and 1.3292 (R3). Downwards scenario: On the downside next supportive bastion lies at 1.3250 (S1). Prolonged movement below it might then expose our intraday targets at 1.3241 (S2) and 1.3231 (S3).

Upwards scenario: Further bullish penetration might face next challenge at 1.5378 (R1). Break here would then be targeting 1.5396 (R2) en route towards to last resistance for today at 1.5415 (R3).Downwards scenario: On the other hand, retracement formation might occur below the immediate support level at 1.5319 (S1).

TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bullish
IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium
Upwards scenario: An element of resistive measure could be found at 98.46 (R1). Clearance here would open way towards to higher target at 98.63 (R2) and any further rise would then be limited to last resistance at 98.80 (R3). Downwards scenario: Failure to establish corrective structure might lead to further downtrend evolvement later on today. Penetration below the support at 98.03 (S1) would suggest next intraday targets at 97.86 (S2) and 97.69 (S3) in perspective.
