Shorter-term technical resistance for the Euro is seen at the overnight high of 1.2788 and then at 1.2800. Buy stops likely reside just above those levels.

Crude oil prices are slightly higher in early electronic dealings, following strong gains Wednesday. In November crude, look for buy stops to reside just above resistance at the overnight high of $63.35 and then just above resistance at $64.00. Look for sell stops just below technical support at the overnight low of $62.55, and then more sell stops just below support at $62.00. Wyckoff's Intra-Day Market Rating: 5.0
GRAINS
Prices were mostly higher in overnight electronic trading. Trading has turned choppy in the grains. Bears still have the near-term technical advantage in soybeans, and bulls had gained some momentum in corn and wheat this week. My bias is still that there is not strong upside potential in corn and beans in the coming weeks, and wheat will be a follower of corn.
