Although at first it looked as if the Pound is going to close above the weekly PP, in the end the bears overpowered the bulls and pushed the price back to the 15-month up-trend line
The currency pair proved to be unable to sustain a rally that was started after the weekend, as the Euro turned around and erased Monday's gains once it hit the weekly pivot point.
The Kiwi formed a unsuccessful attack towards the weekly PP at 0.8575. It seems the pair has lost its allure and therefore a decline is expected.

The pair is trading above the weekly PP at 138.81 and is challenging the major level at 139.
While the beginning of this weeks does not look promising, the 200-day SMA, together with the weekly PP, should act as a support level and prevent further depreciation of the U.S. Dollar.

As it turned out, the 200-day SMA was not able to keep the bulls at bay for long and eventually gave in.
USD/JPY managed to close above the 200-day SMA, and this is a good bullish signal
Last week's attempt to re-test the 2009 highs at 1.70 did not succeed, and GBP/USD declined.

This week the Kiwi was mostly dictated by bearish traders as it has slid below the weekly S2 at 0.8560.
This week the greenback managed to break the weekly PP at 1.0881; however, at the moment pair's momentum looks more bearish than bullish.
