EUR/USD sits at 1.2963, hardly changed from the 1.2955 which greeted me.  Robust Eastern European buying helped fuel an early rally, but sell orders were well documented up at 1.2980/00 ('decent' at 1.2990/00) ahead of 1.3000 barrier option interest, and it came as no huge surprise when we topped out at 1.2985.  From there its been a slow drift lower.

USD/JPY down at 82.02 from early 82.28, EUR/JPY down at 106.35 from around 106.60.   BIS was noted selling USD/JPY this morning, Middle Eastern sovereigns selling EUR/JPY.

Sell stops now seen through 81.90 in USD/JPY.

Cable effectively unchanged at 1.6022. That kind of morning :(
