For most of the European morning session its been eerily quiet. Main move came late morning when really poor German  industry output data saw EUR/USD falls from 1.2843 to session low 1.2817 before steadying.

We're presently down at 1.2822 from early 1.2860.   BIS was notable seller early circa 1.2860/70, and that helped put a cap on the pairings fledgling rally.

Sell stops seen gathered through 1.2800. Sell orders clustered 1.2880/00, buy stops above there.

USD/JPY marginally firmer at 80.28 from early 80.05.  This depite sharp fall in US treasury yields post Obama re-election.  Benchmark 10 year treasury yield down at 1.6700% from close Tuesday in North America up aorund 1.7489%. If you're a USD/JPY bull you should be feeling a little relieved round about now.  Maybe the lack of lasting sell-off is telling us something.

Cable marginally easier at 1.5990 from early 1.6030.  Asian central bank selling notable this morning.
