The euro remains under pressure as investors await Greece's referendum, which will be held this Sunday. A survey conducted June 28-30 and published in Efimerida ton Syntakton showed that 54% of Greeks intend to say 'no' to lenders' conditions and 33% plan to vote 'yes'. However it's worth taking a look at polls conducted before and after the implementation of capital controls. Before this decision 57% of respondents said they would oppose lenders' conditions and 30% would agree. After the implementation of capital controls the numbers changed to 46% and 37% respectively.

Strong U.S. employment data would put additional pressure on the single currency. Yesterday ADP reported that employers added 7,000 jobs to 237,000 vs expectations of an increase to 220,000.

The Australian dollar declined after weak trade balance data. The Australian Bureau of Statistics reported that the country's trade balance expanded to -2.75 billion AUD in May vs -2.2 billion AUD expected. Exports rose by 1%, while imports declined by 4%.

EUR/USD: the pair traded around $1.1050 this morning

USD/JPY: the pair advanced to Y123.45

GBP/USD: the pair traded around $1.5600-15
