ECB balance sheet rises to record EU2.73 trillion

this meaning short?

I guess it means that they have way too much money? No liquidity in the market?

Hell broke lose
Short it

Could someone helps me !?
How can be aware of these news !?
by CNBC / Bloomberg ?! Thanks

cash for trash
extend and pretend
470:1 leverage
nothing exciting, move right along.........

anyway it makes 100 pips move

ecb lending to banks rose by 6xx billion in a week (aprox. 300% increase)

I thought this is good site to be aware of these kind of news

so its mean euro will further fall,and i think euro will fall to1.27 in next couple of months

any body can tell me when euroswiss will move up

don't worry about this move, forget it, it happens once in a blue moon, so it may be a just distraction to you(for missing the move). there are always plenty of opportunities in the market, no need to worry for every move like this. But don't forget to keep the stoploss

is this a good or bad news

every move is important to us...

Is this the explanation for the 100 pip move that I just saw?

Robert7 !
Thanks Dude , I mean this news always make me angry ! These are against my expectation !

I want to be aware to close my positions before SL !!!!

To learn something from that move. But Don't be stupid to catch every move. Otherwise, you may suffer in the long run.

Lets go down folks...... Santa is still sleepy for Euro...But He could wake up before year ends

thank you

bad news for euro

Guys, can anyone explain what it means?

I have said this before that something terrible gonna happen to EUR before the year ends...

Greece bill due - Dec 29, 2011
Greece bill due Dec 30, 2011

Today's move may be a distraction, the real booboo may be next couple of days ..Greece's default may be sooner than you think.....

Depends if you are looking for it. I have been waiting 10 days for this move. I have been shorting off 1.3075 for 6 days (just taking little profit off the falls back to the established supports) it finally caught some traction this morning and took off.

great news for euro traders, nice to see this shorting possibility as almost everybody does it . i wait 01/2012 to come with Greek news : http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,805975,00.html to see, how fast we can see prices below 1.25.... 1.20... to under parity level at 2012.

god dammit, i was in the bank when this happened, could have easily made 5k plus OMFG!!!
Why is life got to be so hard!!!

if XAU/USD is melting then big guys and central banks have already known something...nothing happens in isolation...high ECB balance should not have caused this panic..Euro zone is the biggest market...EUR2.7 Trillion is nothing..some bad is brewing in Euro zone chambers..

it means; the central banks of several countries in europe are bringing their money to the europe central bank. this means that their confident in the europe economics is bad. that's because the euro took a dive. i'm happy that i had set some sell stops underway, so i catched the move nevertheless, i'm still short because i expect lower eur/usd prices.

really what I expected in a few days now, and before the surprise also for boring these days. in about 30 minutes, you can still earn some pips with sell orders, then you can buy cavalier with his command

Guys, guys, guys!!! Hold on! It is not the ECB's balance the PRIMARY trigger -> it is the Italians. The bonds' auction is the reason for this final for the year symmetrical triangle breakout to short! Please all -> do your homework before commenting, and never forget the stop-loss as Kikolo says ...

whats happening on euro?is it goes below1.28 level?

Exactly.

it means euro has a better chance of collapse

Iran-USA crisis has caused this rather then ecb there is news about blocking the petrolum transportation area

Nope if there is a block to the oil transport, that would lift the oil price, which will lead to USD decrease. Here the Euro is decreasing and the dollar gains everywhere, probably found as safe heaven, cause something shity is happening with the euro. It was expected....

just got my mini 10 pips

master1234,

If that were the case, why did oil drop at the same time? I think you have your fundamentals completely wrong here.

1)

little reminder, look this and think: http://stats.oecd.org/Index.aspx?DataSetCode=GOV_DEBT

then check right up corner, yes, it's EUR amount, not USD....

then something from UK.....http://www.debtbombshell.com/

last but not smallest... US... http://www.usdebtclock.org/

Look at those amounts and then look at this, how much really is $1T as money... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GNFb6qe7Tmg

2)

how long you think, that everybody in banking industry can live in debt and increasing that debt all the time in growing speed/need? Collapse just matter of time, action what I have been waiting close to 3 years to happened.

I live in EU side and yes, looks like we have a problem. You who live in US side, have a little problem also. Next thing what I wait to happened is copy-paste US banking stories from US to EU. How many US banks did fail totally at 2011? + 1000pcs, in EU, just a couple.

It's quite public information check your banks balance sheets and their fund sheets as today against 2006. It may open your eyes better LOL.

I might be wrong, I hope I'm wrong, but in my mind we can't go to better future before bankruptcy wave of banking industry. They globally played their cards wrong, they played with money, what ain't theirs and loose it.

New regulation as it seems to coming (US shows good example) to avoid new playing in the future, but as long as old players are in the field, better future just ain't gonna happened.

Lehman Brothers money amount is just a little pcs of *hit in the ocean when you compare that amount of US and EU debt amounts. and it's all growing every single day...

bey bye Euro, im gonna miss you, i have master to trade EUR/USD what ami gonna do now when EUR disappears

First of all i`m asking myself if a strong USD is good for the american economy. It has 2 bad aspects: a stronger debt (do not forget the american debt and the 3rd of august american congress vote: 120%). and a breake to the american exports. A stronger curency it`s not allways the best thing. Sometimes, if you have the power (as a central bank) to vary the curency as you wish, is a sign solidity.

I am Lol'ing hard at all these comments especially the one above, just when you thought the bankers were to blame for everything huh?
And Dragonfire, I dont know for certain that the move was caused in anticipation of the Greek bills tomorrow , but I am grateful that you did post the calendar a while back , it has been one of the main reasons I have not taken up any longs on Euro pairs , something I was tempted to do as I always thought the EU was in line for a correction, will just wait for these last days of 2011 to pass by before going anywhere near this pair.

Don't worry buddy ,I doubt the Euro will go anywhere, it will most likely still be around long after you, only by then the rest of Europe will most likely have adopted it too.
Mind you there is the slight possibility that my prediction could be wrong , an asteroid could hit mainland Europe and leave a crater in its place.Or the Mayans might have been right all along huh?

This made my day
