How would I go about learning to analyse the macroenvironment? Understand the flow of money, and form expert opinions on the flow of money and where currencies will go etc. I understand the basics but I want to slingshot my progress and become like ...

Inpatient, Nice post, I share your sentiments

With the slow down in UK manufacturing and the other troubles its had, and potential easing now having to be considered by BoE, Im thinking it will go down somewhat more. While I highly doubt we'll revisit the GFC levels on the cable, perhaps 1.40, ...

Maybe im missing something but im of the view Fundamentals support EURAUD moving higher in the weeks/months ahead. AUD is bearish providing strength to this pair and improving Euro conditions should provide strength. I havent kept up to speed on ...

Thanks heaps for that

Im relatively new to Forex. What are the thoughts on this pair. I see August last year was the end of a longterm down trend and an uptrend has emerged with higher highs and higher lows. Is the mid-longterm view on the Euro bullish and on the AUD ...

This graph is of the weekly price action. What are your thoughts on this trending support? It commenced 4 years to the day just about and has been quite reliable. I cant see why it would breach it just now. Still one more session to go for the week ...

Excellent thread. You havent considered AUD against JPY?

If you traded the news, wouldnt that mean going long?? Or were you expecting to trade the retracement after the news?

Well said WideEyed. With the Yen being at such extremes, it seems any sneeze of bad information makes some trigger happy and you can see some of the explosive moves to the downside. ie look at the Yen in the last 30 mins.

Well said Dunstan, I like your take on it all and look forward to your words of wisdom

What are the expetations after the weekend elections? ie what will happen Monday???? And 2ndly after the BoJ makes its speech on the 18th??

Good update. With the Yen I still think its positioned for what the market is expecting in the coming weeks/months. Some serious money printing --> debasing. Bare in mind that the Yen has been in a 20 year downtrend and now its at a critical stage, ...

That would depend more on Yen weakness wouldnt it? Although watching the AUDUSD would give indication of strength in the AUD. But personally I doubt anymore upside in the AUD will be because of strength in it, rather weakness with the counter ...

Fundamentals im not sure are that way, I see though the exteme short positioning does say that though, although not from a longer term basis. The Yen being devalued is something to consider. When bond markets begin to deflate and I guess that will ...

Its all futures contracts traded isnt it?? Commercial / Large speculators (ie institutions/funds) & retail investors.

What I dont understand is if the Yen is at an extreme short, why hasnt the USDJPY surpassed the previous 2012 high of 84?? Anyway I think theres some fundamental reasons to keep Yen short but surpised its at such an extreme on the COT already. So I ...

Anyone been following the COT report? The Yen is at an Extreme on the short side.
