Hints of ECB rate cuts that emerged in Mario Draghi’s press conference following last week’s rate decision were reinforced as the Bundesbank slashed Germany’s 2013 growth outlook to a meager 0.4 percent from 1.6 percent estimated previously, putting the Euro under pressure. I will look for a near-term pull-up to 1.2978 as Greece gets its bailout cash tranche this week for improved risk/reward parameters and enter short, targeting 1.2830 initially. Once the trade is triggered, a stop-loss will be set t activate on a daily close above 1.3126.
