The very large buying going on in the Yen is a caution flag... We will most likely have a run to "safe" assets over the next few days. I suppose it may be hedge funds covering some risk in case another situation like last night happens as well. Trade safe! {image}
Yeah, while U.S. corona cases are expanding.

Yep... I have seen this before, but when it's big like this often it may lead by a day or more. I expect big selling in equities this week at some point, and most likely a turn back up for the dollar (even though it looks bearish as heck right now). We'll see, it's a caution flag though for sure.

Edit: Most other markets are moving like normal so this looks to be some covert risk covering(hedging) by big $$.

Yeah, me too.. What one is right? Is equities in for a big dump. Why is the usd not benefiting?

Ignore the marks on the chart pics... But look at the dates. I remember before the massive selloff in equities (the big one - 40%) the Yen was dumped before a massive buy back, but the dollar lagged.

even if its covering.. Something is underlying this. Something is causing a yen safety run. the eu is 100 pips off 1420 high.. ej 400 pips from 124.40.. thats a 300 pip difference. I saw this a week back on some ej longs i had. I thought it would reach 124 again then. Your post made me look again. I bet the Fed is supplying usd liquidity.

Of the last 5 times the Dax came down to here, on the hourly, it went lower continuously without much of a pause for breath. Last time it went to 96.43, Currently it's 96.55

96.45 now, touched 96.39

Bingo.

They don't want the USD overly strong (to keep Liquidity in the market- USD)... They are the reason it stopped around 104ish on that big run up.

Edit: YouTube "Dollar milkshake theory". I don't agree with everything he says but it's an interesting point of view.

Closed my AJ longs minus 10, tried to BE but Yen is still getting stronger. So the risk currencies getting pumped for a dump?

If everyone runs for the exit door at one time it's still going to be really ugly... Even if the drunken carpenter is trying to cut out a bigger doorway for people to pass through.

Kind of like Soros & bank of England, or like the Swiss back around 2015 and the benchmark number they "will not allow price to breach".

possible they are for some reason or another. Evidently some big player or players needs some usd. With the eu run-up today, while the ej drops. Its more visible today. Since its the yen safety run, will equities tank?. Will the eu be forced to follow? The dow is up 125 atm.. Everything is up.

I want to know who is needing usd. So much so, enough usd is pumped to float everything.
