  • Speculators Buy Euros and Pesos while Selling Yen, Sterling and Aussie

    From marctomarket.com

    Speculators were busy in the futures market in the CFTC reporting period that covered the US jobs data and the run-up to the FOMC meeting. Of the 16 gross speculative positions we track, seven were adjusted by more than 10k contracts. It was the busiest week in Q1 17. The bearishness toward the euro continued to subside. Speculators added 10.6k contracts to the gross long position, lifting it to 148.3k contracts. This appears to be a record. Almost 8k short contracts were covered, leaving the bears with 189.3k contracts. The net short position fell to 41k contracts, which is the smallest since last May. This was ... (full story)

I think usd and euro are going to be two big bullish currencies
I guess some EUR buyers will need to wear parachutes. The landing is gonna be hard.

US troops invaded Syria. North Korea's threat of war growing. China's economic problems. Greece. France, choice, choice of Germany, Brexit. And much trouble. This strengthening of the US dollar and the weakening Euro, pound.

I was about to ask the same question. I think people know what is the result of a failed atempt to manipulate the market.

agree, dont find any reason to buy euro for long time. it may goes up for little bit but for longer period its under pressure.
buy pesos ??? sell yen ???? buy Euro ????? again this site putting fake guidance , the third time they put such things without any logical technical analysis or based on fundamentals and they fail badly .

none of us would really know, cause nobody knows a shit anyway.

this game is simple. there are just two balances. they are not sharing info about their actual sizes. guess which balance wins and which loses? can you make an educated guess?

Unbelievable. Look at the date on the table showing the commitment of traders. It's 14 of March which is even before the FED hike. This table doesn't represent the real situation.

I agree....if you dig into the news stories many larger corps. are starting their exit from the UK to the EU. They cannot wait for 2+ years of talks to plan out their own budgets and future plans. Healthcare in the UK is under severe pressure as RN's from the EU are having to leave because they don't know the status of their residency.....Brexit may be priced in but uncertainty for the next few years I don't think is....I think it will be a nasty divorce.
He forgot to mention that CFTC reports come out with 1 week delay. Hence buy the rumour - sell the fact.
EU is going to update the parity real soon, therefore reverse psychology is a good thing sometimes especially with rumours. Forgot to mention, CFTC reports carry no value apart from disinformation
i wish now some things would happen and move! I was not able for trading 2 weeks when i return eur is still 1.0682 and Im thinking Mt4 is broke!
