Key elements of euro zone debt relief for Greece
Euro zone finance ministers reached an agreement on debt relief for Greece on Friday to smooth out the return of Athens to market financing after eight years of living mainly on loans from euro zone states.

EUR/USD Bearish and Indecisive
The EUR/USD went into a whipsaw mode yesterday after a comment from ECB member Nowotny, who was a bit dovish about the EUR strength vs Dollar. The EUR/USD quickly dropped, testing the lower range boundaries then spiked up again. We can see that this range has been holding the pair for a full week. At this point, the EUR/USD could drop from 1.1540-60 towards 1.1520 and 1.1510. Below 1.1510 we might see 1.1470 and 1.1436. However, if the pair get above 1.1645, it should provide bulls with new strength so next targets should be 1.1690 and 1.1780.
