Traders report that a couple of hundred EUR/GBP went through a short while ago on the buy side, helping lift EUR/USD back into the 1.4960s and sending GBP/USD modestly lower, to 1.6680 before a bounce.

The market is consolidating the big moves of early Monday still, awaiting fresh catalysts. The longer the catalysts take to appear, the more vulnerable the market becomes to a correction. We had a very modest shakeout this morning on the dip through 1.4950. A move below the 1.4915/20 area that contained rallies late last week may prompt an accelerated round of profit-taking.
