Because nobody expects Obama's economy to have any growth at all!

Europhiles still have not accepted the EUR is still overvalued against USD by about 40¢ Seems to be a fixation that a strong EUR means a strong union and they can continue their socialist ways. Nature will not be kind.

This story's been told. I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my labor, and this was the reward for all my toil. Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to ...

Greece leaving the EUR will be EUR positive after the initial drop.

Taking water from the deep end of the pool and dumping it in the shallow end does not make the pool deeper. Greece needs more capitalism not geo-welfare.

lol as a country with a $250 billion dollar GDP keeps the markets on edge.

Chicken little: "the rate hikes are coming the rate hikes are coming". Eventually, yes the FED will raise rates. The charts will indicate when that is long before the news.

News creates volatility, price action exposes opportunity. I picked up 6% trading GBP/USD with trades I opened last week. Price action indicated a change of momentum almost two weeks ago. News today helped create enough volatility for my profit ...

...because the 6.2 trillion dollars government will spend this year is just not enough; no money there to upgrade some windows XP machines when you have 50+ million people on foodstamps to support. Perhaps if government would practice the same data ...

With all the talk about FED interest rates rising, it makes sense for people to buy a house now versus waiting. I think this best explains demands in the housing market until September.

Don't make the mistake of looking at the news and trying to forecast where you think the market will go. Instead, look at the information on your chart and trade accordingly.

There will be no June rate rise.

Only if the US economy takes off with some real growth. Remember, the USD is a risk-off currency. If the US economy goes in the crapper, so will the global economy, making for a stronger USD.

EURUSD parity assumes that there will be a FED rate hike. As long as the US continues to put out anemic economic numbers I don't see the FED raising rates come June.

Give me an example of poor in general living in a developed nation that and there is nothing, zip, zero, nada, that they can do to improve their financial state.

Wealth is unlimited, someone getting richer does not directly cause someone else to be poorer. Quite often, in developed nations, the poor are poor because that is what they have settled for. Bill Gates is the richest with 70 billion, how has his ...

They have "insights" for what ever direction the market moves from the news. If it goes up, it is because of this and that, if it goes down, then it was from that and this. The "news" on the FF is really just for entertainment purposes - all the ...

I don't think europhiles want the EUR trading at 1.5 times the USD anymore. I would not be surprised to see it settle somewhere around parity with the USD.

You don't think it is 9+ month down trend, the trillion dollar bond buying program or Greece? I'm up over 1400 pips in 1 week on several crosses, just by looking at the chart and trading the continuation of the existing trends. Or it could be the ...

Of course I care, I'd love to get a conservative in the white house and a conservative congress so we can start undoing 50 years of liberal mistakes, but for the purposes of trading - good new or bad can cause the market to move and that's all we ...
