EUR/USD is trading well below 1.20 in the wake of the new trading week. The common currency enjoys no mercy from soft German words about Greece, with the former wanting the latter to stay, nor from the narrowing of polls in the debt struck country.
The stops are hunted down and the change in flows hits the pair hard. While liquidity is extremely low in the very early hours of the new trading week, the falls are very impressive as well.
The pair is down to 1.19 with very choppy trading.
