Probably nothing very dovish, my guess is interest rates will go up on tuesday.
All forecasts say interest rates will increase 0.25%

Why would they? Last time they didn't see any need. Any more hikes is usury.

since then though employment numbers have improved significantly and i would say the housing market would be on their minds as well.

well, i guess we'll have to wait and see, but last time they said they didn't raise rates, cause the banks were raising rates on their own. also, gotta wonder if higher rates will help their employment rate

Lots of debate whether they go or not. I am leaning toward another Rise. But if they don't look for Latin EM to cut expectations of rate rises.

inflation was low cause AUD gained last month (i think), but not sure it will last?!

I have taken longs on the aud at 8955 targeting 9078 and 9115. stops 8900. Also longs on eu at 1.3593 targeting 1.3710. stops 1.3550.

If those targets are reached then i will look at shorts on both markets.

Hi Amy. Good job picking the very bottom of this past pullback. I don't think I will be taking a long until I get confirmation at 8974 but I do believe that it will go to at least 9075!

Cheers

I think that the dollar index is going to make one push down early this week into 80.45, shown in daily chart on the right, and then for the rest of March it will make a move upwards into 86.

The left chart is weekly and shows that the dollar has spent February consolidating above the blue line which is Q1 pp, to me that is bullish. The chart on the right is daily and shows price being capped by the weekly highs on friday the 19th. When this happens price will normally move back into the blue midpoints before the next up move takes place.

The (USD) dollar cant work out what its doing
happy pipping to all.
Respectfully disagree. USD has been playing by the rules for weeks. Most recent reversal/resistance test was even almost perfectly on time with the latest fibo timezone.

76.4 fib fan almost perfect match to upper blue TL. Also (not shown on the chart) 78.6 fib fan of the same move is containing the price perfectly.

So many gaps at 79.6DX...price above 76.4 fan is looking more and more bull trappish except for support bounce from 61.8 fan.

Could be in a range with two horizontal red lines with 80.27 as the (rough) middle for a while to come.

April SPX 990 puts seem cheap to me. After a longtime correlation between EURJPY and the ES futs as well as SPY ETF (NYSE) during NY hours, the spread between the two instruments has widened dramatically. A long EURJPY/short SPY play looks good, especially with the latest COT report showing decreasing interest in JPY longs.

GMAE.

Although my chart is a little more simple...I must agree that the DXY is caught up for the moment and will most likely provide some bullishness for the AUD/USD for some time.

im getting tired of my short on AUD/USD..... but it seems like my 30m moving averages will cross in anytime now so downtrend will give me at least break even .

Guys you should watch GBPJPY it hit a super low just now 131.99 a fe mins ago...I think we havent seen better time to buy this low.

i took a position at 132.07 but didnt fill me up til like 4 minutes later when the price was already higher...sux!!! anyway i think is good time to trade this low pair besides the candlesticks show some bulling englufing patern

You're very brave. That is like catching a falling knife. I have a low of 118.80 in January 2009. At least the Yen is holding up so far. Too much uncertainty with GBP with monetary/political policy. I wish you well.
Nothing worth having is easy.
