EUR/USD opens lower, Greek worries never far from the surface
EUR/USD sits at 1.3676, down from a North American close Wednesday up around 1.3735.
Comments from Angela Merkel’s chief finance spokesman will have been noted, Michael Meister opining that Greece should turn to the IMF if it’s needs aid. Some see this as signalling a rift between Germany and other European Leaders. Oh-eh.

Good morning Mr. Gerry, how´s ya today? I think it is about time to start buying some EUR/CHF, ´risk of dropping another 100 pips vs chance of at least 300 pips due to intervention, what do you think? Looking at earlier (major) intervention levels from SNB…cheers, ranger
I wouldn’t be surprised if we hit 1.3600 by us open.
Hi Saferanger. Buying EUR/CHF seems akin to buying a lottery ticket ie you might get lucky and buy just ahead of SNB intervention. =For sometime now 1.4300 seems to have been a well touted target for the swissy bulls. Hard to see the SNB just letting it fall to that level without showing up. So yes I guess it might be time to start building a long possie if you like a gamble.
