Comments

Near the highs around the 1.5550 area suggests more follow-on buying. Rate remains trapped inside range; pressured along with GBP but holds support at 1.5470 area. Looking for a long on next push into highsthen a pullback. If rate can clear the 1.5550 area and then fall to support around the 1.5500 area I think we are on the buy side at that point. Expect higher action all week as late shorts get squeezed. Rate finds support as more rumors of Russian and Mid-East buyers; Swiss private bank on the offer overnight. Should rate put in a long tail today a buy might be on the table. Stops and bids noted at the 1.5420 area in size; more said to be resting at the 1.5500 area; all in range. Overhead resistance appears firm at 1.5550 with stops above.
