Well done Gleneagles

I actually tried the 12 pip theory yesterday afternoon when PA got real slow. It worked but with the range being tight you had to have a good entry to even get 12 pips. Had 2 shorts that took over 3 hours to hit my TP! That was painful.

Thanks for sharing

This is typical of the free news feeds getting it wrong and creating a story out of nothing. The 20Bn on the ECB books for the December statement I had referred to back before Christmas. The ECB and the seperate CB's do not print money in the true sense of the word, they buy debt, mostly their own then the week/month after remove deposits through an auction to desensitise the purchases, that's why the 20Bn, which was a shortfall right before Christmas (go back over my posts) was subsequently removed from the balance sheet and the auction to remove deposits last week took care of that, with the succesful subsequent removal of further debt purchases. QE in the EU works differently then it does in the US as the ECB has no fiscal mandate.

So Forexlive is making something out of nothing. There is nothing wrong with the Irish CB buying up debt and subsequently removing deposits the next week/month to balance the books, this has been going on since the first round of debt purchases back in June. Today the ECB was the major buyer of Spanish debts, keeping the yield down, next week they will auction the removal of deposits to balance the books.

The EU does not print money, it recycles debt into removal of deposits from commercial institutions, what it does do is make a profit on it as it will write higher yields to Greece and Ireland as part of the bailout then it pays on the peripheral debt of Spain, Portugal and Italy.

So all a bit of a red herring really, this construction has been used since QE started in the EU.

Take anything you read on these freebie sites as out of date and usually a bit of the mark.

But heh, they make money out of advertising, so a story going a bit viral does wonder for the site visits.

Valid point Cloggie, but first it wasn't on foresxlive as source but in the Financial Times (which really doesn't say much either but add a little bit of depth on the reports) and second this bit is what i found interesting "...Falling on the asset side, and not balancing out, means the fine-tuning operation was not intended to sterilise the Securities Market Programme (a liquidity absorbing operation) as other fine-tuning operations specifically have. It was instead a liquidity providing imbalance."

Which in simple words implies "printing money" (from a strictly monetary policy is not adding M1 or M2 but still the same impact at the end) that goes hand to hand with ECB inflationary hints last week.

If you look at the later report and the auction results last week you see the 20 Bn from December taken of as being desentisised. The ECB has no mandate to increase the money supply.

Yes that is exactly the point. Is a technicality (Economist ...always looking for the loophole!!!!) to print money without breaking the mandate and as you probably you know is not something the politician in Brussels will understand nor is a point to explain at national level by the EZ governments .... in other words perfect solution to bypass politics and the mandate.
