Attitude to risk: Improving investor sentiment on Wednesday was encouraged by statistics from China, where it finally got more optimistic data. The trade surplus of the country in the national currency grew, and in dollar terms, the decline of exports and imports was not as large as expected. Demand for the yen and the franc – a traditional safe-haven currencies – and joined them, the Euro has declined, and rates fell. As for the U.S. dollar will have the value of traditional publishing data on the number of applications for unemployment benefits in 16:30 GMT and especially the performance of the new voting member of the fed's Bullard, whose attitude can be described as hawkish, i.e. bullish for the USD. EUR/USD: Another test of support at 1.0800. On the break of this level is likely to decline to 1.0760, very (bottom of the daily Ichimoku) and 1.0670 (the bottom of the descending channel). Given the fact that the risk sentiment is not stable, in sales it is better to stick to conservative goals. USD/JPY: the Pair attempted to find an interim bottom this week, the rate was holding above 117.00, plus has been broken up above the resistance line from December 18. At the same time, the top there are a number of strong resistances: 118.70, 119.15 and 119.60, so be careful with trading on restoring the American. GBP/USD: the Pound is oversold after falling to multi-year lows. Support is at 1.4350/00. The next important level down – 1.4228 (2010 low). Meanwhile, the overall downtrend remains in force. At 15:00 GMT will be announced the results of the meeting of the Bank of England. There is a possibility that Ian McCafferty, voted for the increase in the key interest rates will change his mind. Although such a scenario has already been largely taken into account in the pound for trade is recommended to consider sales in the area with a stop above 1.4520 1.4570 and 1.4400 in order/1.4350. Care above 1.4570 needed to confirm a temporary bottom. AUD/USD: Early in the morning on Thursday will be released data on employment in Australia (03:30 GMT). The expected increase in the unemployment rate and the number of unemployed, therefore, the return to 0.6930/00 is a basic scenario. If data presented a positive surprise, lifting the limit should be the resistance at 0.7115 (previous support line).
