Chinese offers in the high 1.4980s are slowing the EUR/USD gains late in the London session. Risk assets continue to perform well today with the exception of US equities, which have lagged to the topside today. Gold has been unable to establish itself above $1150 though it has made probes through that level several times.

EUR/USD is finding buyers in the low 1.4970s where it found resistance earlier, a dip below may prompt some profit-taking. 1.5015/20 and 1.5050/60 are key resistance levels above the market near-term.
