Hi Shahab,

I was following your calls and discussion for the past two weeks and they were impressive. I am not sure the reason you stopping but i would like to know if you have your own blog or website to follow your analysis.

All i have to say is that Thank you for the great work

PS. I would like to get your insight on oil. I know you called sell at 79 for target price of 73 but since then it climbed back to 79. Sell again??

Thank you for your comments.

For Crude Oil, I closed my short from 79 at 76 after it got Support at 75.5.

Next selling might come at 81.80 and 83.30

For the website, take a look at my profile.

A/U COT

To my surprise Large institutes have not been adding to their Long A/U contracts in a significant way. That's one of the reason that I expect this up move capped somewhere between 88-89.

I did not get the email, dunno why either. Anyways, another trader sent me a mesg saying you all have a pay service now for trade calls.

I am very surprised how GB/U has completely recovered from 900 pip loss( 4200 - 5100 ) while U/J, A/U and E/U still struggling, interesting indeed.

Well, good luck in your endeavours. You say you will continue to post COT analysis and that is a good thing for most of us. Thanks again for all your efforts here.

The theory is those fund managers with those big accounts if they do change position to short they would push the price higher as to liquidate their intention at a profit. But with the above charts. Those changes from long to short are instantaneous.

I think I need to respect their COT report and made no conclusion on my own. Great work.

Think we're going lower?
UCHF quite oversold and isn;t the COT index heavily oversold?

I am not touching the Euro at the moment, too much short squeezing going on and many specs.
Any thoughts on these:
Sell the yen by buying USDJPY.
Buy the CAD by selling USDCAD
Sell the GBP by selling GBPUSD (GBP moved much further than expected to in the last 2 weeks).

Hi SanMiguel
I my opinion selling the Yen at this point is a gamble, at least in medium term. Bond spreads are still increasing fast, and equity indexes continues to impress on the downside.
net contrasts have just crossed the zero-point as specs stepped up the buying with almost 22000 contracts, which is a lot. After observing previous extremes there's also room for a whole lot more.

Over to the Swissie. Looked through the numbers and find it odd that shorts are not covering much faster. It's been heading straight upwards after SNB said they have "given up" on interventions. Ralph Shell mentions an interesting theory in his COT-analysis, but I find that also a bit unrealistic:

I welcome any ideas or theories.

2 countries in trouble there though. Neither the Japanese nor the Swiss want string currencies yet it can't be helped at the moment. USDCHF did just hit it's 200 day MA though and there is talk of the Japanese PM wanting to push a weaker yen.

Im also bearish on the yen, longer term. Just need to see some more positive employment numbers from the US. It would also help if the ECRI leading indicators stopped tumbling. The next weeks are going to be eventful.

EUR/USD.
1.27? The broken trendline projects price to target 1.31. The recently completed head and shoulders also projects price to 1.31, the exact 38.2% of the move down from 1.5140. With the E.C.B backing it all the way, its going to at least 1.31. You can take that to the bank.

Chart 1 is a week old and shows the trendline break, price projection and the head and shoulder scenario before it even formed.
Chart 2 is current

One important thing not on these charts is this:

Looking at weekly we are at a very important resistance level shown in my chart.

If the inverse H&S proves to pan out and we close above the resistance line.
The EUR/USD will rocket. And it will be over for the USD.

THis may confirm the negative EUzone data being priced into charts already.
and unemployment in the US is not getting better very soon.

take a look,

If things change, and US releases some consistent positive data, and EUR is rejected we go towards 1.15 or lower.
