By Colin Twiggs

Sydney, Apr.22, free stock tips .- The euro respected primary support at $1.26 on the monthly chart. Follow-through above $1.32 would indicate another test of $1.37, while breakout above $1.37 would signal a primary advance to $1.50. A trough above zero on 13-week Twiggs Momentum would reinforce this. Reversal below $1.26, however, would signal a down-swing to $1.20.

* Target calculation: 1.35 + ( 1.35 - 1.20 ) = 1.50
Pound sterling respected resistance at $1.53 against the dollar, confirming a down-swing to $1.43*. Declining 13-week Twiggs Momentum, below its 2011 lows, strengthens the signal.

* Target calculation: 1.53 - ( 1.63 - 1.53 ) = 1.43

The primary trend is down and breakout below $0.97 would indicate another decline, while breach of $0.96 would strengthen the signal. Respect of $0.96, however, would suggest an advance back to the 2012 high of $1.03; strengthened if resistance at $0.99 is broken.

The greenback is testing resistance at ¥100 against the Japanese Yen. The 30-year down-trend of the dollar is over. Breakout above ¥100 is likely, after brief consolidation/retracement, and would suggest an advance to the 2007 high at ¥125*.

The Fed, ECB and BOJ are all printing money and debasing their currencies. It is a case of which boat is sinking the fastest.
