The US dollar fell against the yen, the Euro failed to breach $1.29, and the Canadian dollar gained.<\/p>\n<p>EURUSD An optimistic outlook surrounded the Euro earlier this week due to an increased demand motivated by the German government\u2019s bond auction and the single currency rallied to a $1.2930 resistance level. However, failing to hold firm above $1.29, Euro gains came to an end yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>GBPUSD Recovering from a three week low the pound hit the day\u2019s high 0.1% higher at $1.556. This followed the release of the minutes from the BoE\u2019s Monetary Policy Committee meeting earlier this month.\u00a0 The data released by the central bank showed an 8-1 vote keeping the interest rate 0.5%, with only one board member favoring an increase. The dissenting vote represented the view that economic conditions have improved sufficiently in the last year, therefore easing could be relaxed and interest rates could be gradually increased. Investors reported option related offers of $1.5660\/90, which might limit the Cable\u2019s gain.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/system.referforex.com\/processing\/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_1391b_3739\" target=\"_blank\"><strong><strong>Forex Market Review &amp; Analysis by         Finexo.com<\/strong><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Disclaimer: Trading the foreign exchange (Forex) carries a high level                      of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Finexo &#8211; Amid continuing concerns that economic recovery is slowing, gold traded close to its seven week high as investors sought the safe haven investment.
