USD\/JPY The USD\/JPY opened the Asian session at 119.46 after volatile Lon and NY sessions that saw a low of 118.86 print followed by a strong rally that still left the pairing nearly 1.0% down on the day. With the Tokyo holiday \u2013 the Asian session was a far cry from being volatile and could only manage a 119.39\/55 range during the morning session. The USD\/JPY was pivoting around 119.50 heading into the afternoon session.<\/p>\n

EUR\/USD The EUR\/USD opened the Asian session at 1.2156 after failing to get a lift in the USD selloff against other major currencies \u2013 as the EUR continues to be weighed down by Greece political uncertainty and expectations of ECB QE,. The Tokyo holiday and year-end ensured an extremely quiet Asian session. The EUR\/USD could only manage a 1.2151\/63 range through the morning session and it was trading around 1.2160 heading into the afternoon session.<\/p>\n

The AUD\/USD opened the Asian session at 0.8184 after just trailing the JPY as the best performing currency due to short covering and a huge 4.85% rise in the iron ore price. The AUD\/USD traded at 0.8177 in early Asia before attaining a bid tone in very quiet trading conditions. It traded to a session high just above 0.8190 a few minutes before the HSBC China MFG PMI release. The HSBC version of the China PMI came in at 49.6 \u2013 slightly better than the Flash estimate of 49.5. The AUD\/USD pushed above 0.8200 after the data flushed out more AUD\/USD shorts. The AUD\/USD traded to 0.8215 and was trading around that level heading into the afternoon session.<\/p>\n
