>> Wednesday, May 13, 2009
Forex updates: The USD hit 4 month low of 81.871 against basket of currencies and 7 week trough versus the Euro on Wednesday, facing changed selling in the middle a recovery in risk appetite that has restricted safe-haven buying of Dollars.
The Euro hit a 7-week high of $1.3722 on trading platform EBS, and now struggling at levels near its March peak of $1.3739. The Euro would go to its highest level in 4 months through break above that March high.
On Tuesday after detaching some gains, the Euro was 0.3% higher from late U.S. trading at $1.3690.
Last week, the Dollar index violated support at the 200-day moving average while the Euro broke above a similar moving average against the dollar.
The Dollar may figure out a head and shoulder pattern in opposition to the Yen on technical charts and looked weak; although it could show some support from the 90-day moving average around 95.45 Yen, market players said.
