Rebound in oil prices help push Canadian Dollar to be the strongest one today, followed by Australian. On the other hand, Yen and Swiss Franc are generally weakest. Though, it's a surprise that Sterling is among the worst performing, partly due to the steep pull back against Euro. Economic calendar is very light and traders will look forward to the three central bank meeting this week, BoJ, BoC and then ECB.
