Elsewhere, EUR/USD is down 0.3% to 1.0150 while USD/JPY is threatening a firmer advance above the 135.00 mark to 135.39 currently. Meanwhile, AUD/USD is down another 0.5% to test 0.6900:
The drop is seeing price contest a drop below the 50.0 Fib retracement level at 0.6909 and that will bring in the 5 August low at 0.6869 before potentially seeing a drop back to the lows for the year below 0.6800.
It’s all on the dollar right now as the greenback…
