    Bears push into 1.3212 after ratings warning fromMoodys.

    EUR/USD bears have continued to push lower, after a recent warning from

    Moodys which cited that it would review ratings for all European Union

    countries. In price terms, bears need to break near-term support at 1.3212

    (25th Nov low) and 1.3146 (Oct swing low).

    We have opened a sell trade setup favouring extended downside scope.

    Our cycle analysis suggests increased volatility over the next two weeks

    across risk proxies, including the equity and commodity markets.

    A close beneath 1.3146 will re-establish the larger downtrend from April and

    target 1.3000 (psychological level), then 1.2870 (2011 major low).

    Meanwhile, resistance can be found at 1.3550 (02 Dec high), then 1.3610

    and 1.3730. Any rebound into these levels is likely to be short-lived.

    Inversely, the USD Index is maintaining its recovery higher and still targets

    its recent 9-month highs near 80, (a move worth almost 10%).

    Speculative (net long) liquidity flows have unwound from recent spike highs

    (3 standard deviations from the yearly average). This will likely remain

    strong and help resume the USDs major bull-run from its historic oversold

    extremes (momentum, sentiment and liquidity).

    Prints a fresh hourly low, adding to uncertainty.

    GBP/USD has returned to the base of a month long range, breaking back

    under 1.5561 following two false breaks, one in either direction. We now

    await confirmation that the current break can be sustained.

    Demand for sterling is likely to be affected by the movement in selected core

    Euro-Zone sovereign markets. In particular we note that Italian 10 year

    yields are trading back over 6.00%. Daily structure is also suggestive of a

    return to test 7.00% and higher. A continuation of higher yields may see

    Sterling being adopted as a safe haven again. This reasoning would likely

    help to keep cable within its year long range.

    With the above in mind, the region near 1.5400 may offer attractive levels to

    enter into medium-term long positions. Taking this approach will need tosee levels closer to 1.5400 for a well placed stop. The range bound trade of

    the last few days is best avoided.

    Weakening beneath 78.24 (DeMark Level).

    USD/JPY is still weak beneath 78.24 (DeMark Level). There is an ever

    growing probability of unfolding a third price retracement back to pre-

    intervention levels (PIR III) and potentially even a new post world war recordlow beneath 75.35 (PINL).

    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.

    This may inspire a temporary, but dramatic, price spike through

    psychological 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 would create 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 into November-December this year, offering a sustained

    move above our upside trigger level at 80.00/60, then 82.00 and 83.30.

    Further downswing favoured to complete a larger correction.

    USD/CHF continues to trade under 0.9331. Given that the structure from

    the key low at 0.8568 is suggestive of a complete leg higher, trade since

    0.9331 is deemed to be corrective. Another phase lower is now anticipatedto complete this corrective phase. Further upside pressure in Core Euro-

    Zone sovereign yields will assist this scenario.

    With this in mind, we note that the respite that was offered to 10 year Italian

    government bond yields following the USD based swap rate cut has likely

    reached completion. The region near 5.750% has thus far acted as strong

    support, warning of a return to 7.000% over coming weeks. If upside

    pressure can be maintained in Italian and Spanish yields then USD/CHF will

    likely experience a degree of downside pressure.

    Referencing Spanish and Italian government bonds back to their respective

    levels prior to the six party central bank agreement, we note that most of the

    positive after effects have worn off, with yields trading at 5.897% and

    6.521% versus 6.478% and 7.355%, before the agreement. (These same

    yields were trading at 5.865% and 6.572% respectively at the same time on

    Friday.)

    Bulls rebound above 1.0200.

    USD/CAD is maintaining its sharp bullish rebound above 1.0200. We are

    watching for further sustained price activity to open a buy trade setup.

    A directional confirmation above 1.0658 is still needed to unlock the

    recovery into 1.0850 plus. This would extend the upside breakout from the

    rates ending triangle pattern, which was part of a major Elliott wave cycle.

    Only a sustained close beneath 1.0080 and parity unlocks bearish setbacks

    into the long-term 200-day MA at 0.9867 and 0.9726 (31st

    Aug low).

    EUR/CAD is unwinding mildly ahead of the base of an important multi-

    month distribution pattern. A break beneath 1.3393-79 (19th

    Sept low/61.8%

    Fib), signals an important breakdown into 1.3140 and would providesubstantial correlation pressure onto EUR/USD.

    CHF/CAD, which serves as a proxy for risk appetite, remains weak

    beneath its 200-day MA (which had provided support for most of the uptrend

    since mid-2010). Key support now holds at 1.0893 (61.8% Fib retrace). A

    break here would extend the sharp decline into 1.0332 (01st

    March low) and

    help confirm further unwinding of global risk appetite.

    Sharp setbacks beneath 200-day MA at 1.0414.

    AUD/USD has resumed its sharp setbacks beneath its 200-day MA which is

    currently holding at 1.0414. This key level is likely to encourage further

    downside scope over the multi-day-week horizon.

    The bears must sustain below 1.0000 to further compound downside

    pressure on the rates multi-year uptrend and push back towards 0.9611.

    Elsewhere, the Aussie dollar remains strong against the New Zealand

    dollar. However, near-term price activity is mean reverting back into the 200-

    day MA. Expect a sharp setback to ensue over the multi-day/week horizon.

    The Aussie dollar pairing back its mild recovery against the Japanese yen,

    while holding above the neck-line of its two-year distribution pattern. Watch

    for further downside scope into support at 72.00 which would signal further

    unwinding of global risk appetite.

    Returns to the base of this months range.

    GBP/JPY continues to trade in a similar manner to GBP/USD. We are

    currently testing the base of the range of the last month. Medium-term our

    bias remains for a strong recovery given the longer-term structure.

    However, the rise seen since 116.84 is deemed corrective in nature

    suggesting scope for a return to 119.38 and then 116.84 in the near-term,

    before a more lasting recovery.

    As noted in prior reports, should this pair reach the 123.00 level, a degree of

    resistance would be anticipated. In the meantime, we remain wary of the

    short-term range bound environment but are re-instating the sell strategy at

    123.00.

    If the recent range bound trade is resolved to the downside, then the 120.00

    level should provide a degree of support, from where a further leg higher

    would be favoured to develop.

    Minor short-term down-trend develops.

    EUR/JPY is likely to see a period of volatile trade due to its clear association

    with EUR/USD which is now approaching the key 1.3146 level. We are also

    wary of the possibility of coordinated intervention to maintain the stability of

    the Euro as a currency. This acts as a manipulation of the market, making

    technical analytics harder.

    The clash in structure that we have noted in previous reports remains

    present, with the recent rise from 102.49 being deemed as corrective.

    However, the larger 100.76 111.60 rise is suggestive of a further leg

    higher back towards 111.60. Thus the directional clash in two timeframes is

    ever present.

    As mentioned above, if EUR/USD breaks under 1.3146 this will end the

    rising phase seen since 2010 and would likely be associated with a fall back

    down to 100.76 and potentially lower.

    It is preferred to see if a sustained break can be achieved under 1.3146 in

    EUR/USD, before committing to any directional bias.

    Maintains hold above 0.8486 for now.

    EUR/GBP met 0.8496 last Thursday from where an initial recovery phase

    has evolved. While above 0.8486, the entire structure seen since this same

    level is viewed as being corrective in nature, with scope for a further

    recovery leg higher back to 0.8665 and then potentially on to 0.8700, our

    favoured target zone. An earlier break under 0.8486 may finally signal a

    breakdown of the prior long-term rising trend, which is shown on the Daily

    chart to the left. However, we are wary of breaks lower in any timeframe in

    EUR/GBP as they have proved hard to sustain in recent weeks and months.

    The message that we take away from the recent six party central bank

    coordination is that there is a demand for US Dollars amongst European

    banks. This fact is a warning sign and a clear weakness, suggesting scope

    for a credit contractionary phase. We continue to expect a return to rising

    yields in the Euro-Zone and it is within this environment that we see the

    potential for Sterling to be perceived as a safe haven.

    Our bias remains mildly bearish and is supported by trade continuing under

    both the 200 day and 50 week moving averages. As mentioned in prior

    reports the 1.3146 level in EUR/USD remains key. A push under this level

    will likely lead to weakness in all EUR crosses, as it will mark a breakdown

    in confidence in the EUR and also end the rising trend that has been

    witnessed since the 1.1876 low seen in the middle of 2010.

    DAILY TECHNICAL REPORT12 December, 2011

    The 50 week moving average continues to contain the upside.

    EUR/CHF saw an initial push higher above the 50 week moving average

    which again failed close to 1.2500, adding a further lower high to the

    sequence seen since the middle of October. Since reaching the 50 week

    moving average earlier in the year, it has acted as a decent region of

    resistance, warning that the larger down-trend may not be over. We will

    maintain our sell limit strategy at 1.2480 for now, as this represents a decent

    trade location during thin Christmas markets. However, we look to see if a

    break under 1.2226 can be achieved.

    1.2226 will be used as a filter. Under 1.2226 we will swap our current sell

    limit strategy to a sell stop strategy at 1.2130, with objectives at

    1.2030/1.1526/1.1002 and a stop at 1.2230.

    A rising sovereign yield environment may now be returning within the Euro-

    Zone, as discussed in other parts of this report. We look to see if Italian 10

    year sovereign yields can return to the 7.000% handle. It is these kinds of

    pressures that may assist a return to and break of 1.2123/31. This

    represents the real goal of a lasting breakdown in the recent range bound

    structure.

    The 1.2000 level is the only level that the SNB has suggested they will

    defend. There is thus likely to be a large cluster of stops under this level,

    which if triggered, could herald a return to the 1.0075 level.

    Bearish breakout from triangle pattern targets $1600.

    Golds bearish breakout from a multi-month triangle pattern targets initial

    support at $1600/17. This is likely to accelerate from inter-market weakness

    across related risk proxies such as EUR/USD and equity markets.

    Moreover, there is still heightened risk for a much larger decline if we

    confirm a weekly close beneath $1600/17 and $1530 (200-day MA/swing

    low), which has not been breached in 3 years!

    A number of bargain hunting trend-followers will be watching this

    benchmark line in the sand for repeat support or a potential big squeeze

    lower into $1300 and perhaps even $1040-1000 (12-year channelfloor).

    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 summer 2012.

    Key support at $30.0000.

    Silver is holding around key support at 30.0000. Only a sustained close

    below here would trigger a test of the previous swing low at 26.0700.

    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 uptrend and help offer a potential buying opportunity for the eventual

    resumption higher.

    Continue to watch the gold-silver mint ratio 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.
