I don't get your argument Malcolm - a weak dollar doesn't make all imports massive, it stimulates exports, hence stimulates job-growth
have you looked at labels recently

Thanks Malc(and Turvey)

But....Ok so the price is going down and some pros are adding to their losing long positions.

On the opposite side, other pros are adding to their winning, short, positions.

Think I know which side I'd rather be on.

As Dr Joe says, if price is going up, I buy, if its going down I sell.

Until it stops, that is, anything else is top or bottom picking.

Anyway this is way too complicated for me - I just trade the trend.....Buy the dips or sell the spikes.

ye but do not forget what side markets makers are taking that is where the fat juicy frontrunning happens

u wanna be in it longer than the 95 percent crowd
Thank you Malcolm, Belekas, Jim, raczekfx and Ryanmcd !

agree 100%.

Dollar hasn't pick up yet, but it's shaping up nicely it's evident on the charts.

DX chart posted a while ago:

Same chart below.
Azim,

Looking at your chart I can see this going to 71, or even lower - lol.

that's exactly the problem that the weak USD policy is trying to solve - without export demand, no producs will ever be made in the USA again.

Even if it were a great exporter though, US cars would still be shite. No offence intended.

think of it like this

yo want to save 1 million ..

do you save it all in one pay check .. no you save bit by bit .. accumulating the 1 million

if pros are very bullish they will buy all dips and accumulate a longer term position .. that is what seems to be happening on dx.

they know everyone is bearish usd ... they know if they buy a little ( which it did push price up ) then stop buying , the price will come down to their original buy price of 75 ....or even lower
I agree with Malc on this. Its this overly bearish, it must sink atmosphere that reversals usually occur in. I have never heard such a negative sentiment towards any commodity in my life...

Of course there is also room to be wrong, and as Jim Rogers once said if we don't get a rally then I'm going to do like everyone else and panic and sell.

When China has nothing more to lose WW3 is very possible, China vs USA sadly if the USA is losing ( likely ) then they'll use Nukes and game over.

Malc,

A weak dollar will make imports more expensive and exports cheaper.

IMHO. this is exactly what the US needs to stimulate the economy.

Yes it pushes up inflation but thats the least of their problems - deflation is a much greater threat.
Argentina did such thing in the early 60 and 80... Put argentinian currency into a very depreciation of its value. BIG depreciation... the point is doing this, you will have a very dangerous situation of speculation, till the point that currency don't have any real value (as example, here, 1 dollar was 2.3 million pesos in the 80, compared today 1 dollar=3.83 pesos) Plus imports was very big, all factories must to close, very big unemployment situation (at least 45%)and more of this kind of things...
i tell you, sometimes what we think is the correct thing to do, is really the worse option.
Don't you see other's countries economic chaos and learn from it???

All the classic points sometimes does not serve. more than anything in hard times

You can't compare the two situations, as the differences are vast.

Argentina isssued all of its sovereign debt and much of its private sector debt in US dollars, a foreign currency (whereas the US isssues all its debts in dollars). Hence when the peg was broken, the value of the peso crashed, meaning debt servicing costs were impossible to meet. Argentina should've been used as a case study for Latvia, not the US.

Japan in the early 1990s bears a closer comparison, in my opinion, to the situation facing the US: massive private sector debt; collapse of asset prices from over-inflated bubble territory; the inevitable contraction of credit and rise in bad debts; unemployment jumping and private sector demand disappearing; the government aggressively expanding its balance sheet in order to pick up the slack from very low demand from households and businesses.

Deflation, not inflation, still remains the greatest near-term threat to the US economy, particularly with unemployment over 10%, which leaves a dangerous amount of spare capacity in the economy.
