Better data helping the push

The EURUSD is moving to new session lows and trying to put some space between the price and the 1.0600 option expiration (4 bln expires at 10 AM ET).

The GBPUSD is below the 1.5000 level but still has some other support to get through (see chart below).

The USDCAD is making new highs. Interest rate decision by the BOC at 10 AM ET. The recent highs at 1.3435 and 1.34559 are the next targets. A break above has the 1.34685 as the next target (equals the 61.8% of the move down from the 2002 high to the 2007 low). Be aware of that key level.

The USDJPY moved to new highs for the day and the week at 123.377. The Monday high peaked at 123.33. The low today stalled at the 100 and 200 hour MA (blue and green lines in the chart below). That has been a bullish technical catalyst for the pair.
