In yesterday's Forex session Global stocks tumbles down and there is rise seen in the USD currency and Japanese Yen. The fall of Global stock market is due to the Spain's banking concerns and Korean currency drop-down. The investors are so much worried about the Spain concerns since it may rise the debt crisis in European countries.

This causes the major European index to fall that is FTSE is down to 2.21 percent where as DAX falls to 2.34 low and CAC drops down to 2.9 percent.

But, it can be said that the currency pair remains bearish although the resistance holds at 85.86 level.

As the banking problem in Spain is the highest priority concern among the market investors because this will lead the European currency to wide spread in the Global economic market which impacts the economic recovery of the market. IMF warned the Spain's bank about the consolidations remains low then the Spanish banks have to get prepared otherwise the financial trouble will lead the bank into an intervention.

BOE policy makers specified the fact about the Japanese economy that it faced the same condition as the UK and US economy is facing today and it may lead to the recessionary condition due to the small policy making mistakes. But the Posen also specified that one major problem that was not faced by the Japan's economy in their recession time was that the poor demand of external prospects along with the productive resource reallocation need.

The euro zone countries again facing the same problem as faced by the last two weeks since the EUR/JPY currency pair falls to 109 level had confirmed the resume of downtrend. The upside break in the currency pair leads to the bullish convergence condition. Although we are expecting a strong support at the level below 2000 in the major currency pair of Japan.

problems.

The Germany is the major contributor in the stabilization fund but the EU members of the other nation that has given their support is not happy because they are worried about the austerity plans that the government had announced for improving the fiscal health of the countries.

These countries are Spain, Portuguese and Italy, since Greece also belongs to this category but it's announcement is now in holding state.

However, after this announcement there is a slow down seen in the economic recovery in both the euro zone countries along with the whole world. Government has bought 20 billion EURO for providing short-dated bonds to euro zone countries are Greece, Spain and Portuguese.

USD/JPY is currently on mildest downside and the further drop-down is expected from 90.85 to lower point. The upside in the currency pair is expected to be of 93.62 but it is limited to 94.97 high.

EuRO zone is surrounded by number of major concern issues. They are: Firstly it is been heard that unless Angela Merkel, the German Chancellor do not agree upon the EU bailout plan the French President Sarkozy will not do any favor for the EURO currency and it will continue to be shattered down. The second major issue is that the euro zone countries Spain and Portuguese had announced last week that they will implement the austerity plan and workout on that, but the euro zone is unable to make improvements in their fiscal health.

The third important issue is if the euro zone countries or other will implement the austerity plans then it will mainly affect the EURO currency and also drags down the economic recovery. The last concern is about the bank that if it will not implement the quantitative easing then the market still not get benefited and it also makes the euro drop-down. It is predicted that all the major outcomes from the euro currency is negative as it is the common currency among the major currency pairs in the Forex online market.

As per the last week's Forex session the major outcomes in stocks is seen as FTSE 100 up 139 points, DOW up 240 points and Nikkie up 98 points in the overall week. It seems that after the Friday's sell off the market is in the intra-week high position. After the fall started in April there is a decline noticed in terms of Global equities. There is some weakness shown in the crude oil favors the Gold and Dollar in the past week by making it reaching to high position. These all things makes the EURO currency fall down along with commodity currencies.

Economy remains uncertain is due to some major factors that is impact of debt crisis in euro zone and risk aversion in economic recovery- said by the King (UK).

Because of getting support from the June hike the Canadian Dollar was one of the strongest commodity currency, Aussie also rebounds because of getting support by the employment report where as Kiwi remains static although the market gets disappointed by the retail sales department. But, on Friday it is seen that after the sell-off in the Forex market the Canadian dollar becomes the biggest loser. These all things certainly affects rate hike of Boc and will lead the global equity in down position.

Now a quick overview of the overall Forex market of last week is the Dollar gets strengthened and reaches a high of 86.28 finally. The crude oil lowers down to 70.32 point. This makes the EURO currency weaker and it drop down to just one level above the past year low of 1.2329. Last week the currency pair of EUR/AUD touches the low of 1.3927 and makes a new record of low points. We are assuming that in this week some important levels could be achieved.

Market trends signaling green to show that trends are moving higher and traders will surely redeem their investment that is time to sell off. EU policy makers sudden turned up attitude swerved up market of EUR in this morning.

The breeze of positive reaction blows all across the global Forex market and this is alluring to have some settle down of trades at EUR protecting the short-term trend. Although trends are moving in positive direction but it will take some more time to recuperate integrity at the forex trading platform.

In order to deal with the loosing consumer confidence and increasing crisis over the market at the weekend Fed, EU authorities and ECB combined took a strong decision that shook the entire currency pair market and forex session opening came up over with great precision at the pairs.

The victory of South Korea further drove the currency by 2% in front of USD whereas the protection cost of Asian bonds fell down once again while crude oil prices inclined higher at 3.8%.

This attempt of EU zone and approval of such a lump-sum aid package to soothe out the mushrooming debt crisis of sovereign that have sprouted in Greece but is threatening the other part of the forex market and their attempt put an end to the spreading of debts to other financial market.

The resistance would likely to expand from the last week’s trade lows level of 1.2510 to move towards the stronger recoiled level of current turn down towards 1.3000 but the trade didn’t achieved and finally stayed with 1.3038. According to the Fibonacci analysis, it is observed that the trade trends retraced from the level of 1.3365 to 1.2510 that would continue to hold from this level of trading.

The currency pair of GBP/USD is having short-term entry from the trade level of 92.50 and the target trade level at 90.80 and ceasing point of the trade is at 93.15.

Whereas USD managed to maintain the firm hold at the forex trading platform due to JPY’s winding down with upward trending risk is likely to test the resisting trends at 93.27/28. Nevertheless, there is a need to have a break in the trend that would signal the decline in the trading of the currency from the level 94.99 of the peak ended up at 87.95 in last week then again regained some pace in trading at 93.90 but changes would speed up or not this couldn’t be said now.

In Greece, a nationwide general strike crippled the country, as protests against the government’s recently announced austerity measures turned violent, with a firebomb attack on a central Athens bank killing three people.

The Euro closed at $1.28126, down 1.17% from the day’s opening price and down 3.80% from the week’s opening price In the forex online market the EUR/JPY tumbled to a low of 119.935.

President Jean- Claude Trichet will be fighting for the credibility of the ECB as well as the Euro today as he faces questions over the institution's decision to throw away collateral rules for Greek debt. On Tuesday, Trichet altered the rules for the second time in a month to guarantee the ECB will keep accepting Greek government bonds as collateral for loans even though they had been downgraded to junk status. This move comes in a direct contradiction to the declaration made earlier this year by Trichet that the central bank would not alter its collateral rules for the benefit of a single country.

According to economists the central bank may have to extend that to other nations, renew a program of lending unlimited cash to banks for a year, and even start buying government debt if the €110 billion- ($146 billion) bailout plan for Greece fails to stop the euro’s slide. The ECB decision raises tough questions that will make Trichet's monthly news conference "more than difficult," wrote economists at BNP Paribas.

Today, the ECB will announce its minimum bid rate decision – the central bank is expected to hold its key interest rate at its current record low level of 1.0%.
