What I have noticed in the past is that when bank experts come out and predict that a pair is bear or bull, there seems to have intermediate gains the other way, might be something to that
There is in fact something to it.

1. Bank has a surplus of Euros and they want to buy some USD but they don't like the exchange rate.

2. They make an announcement that the euro is going up to a certain level

3. The sheep buy it up.

4. When the Euro comes close to what they announced, the bank sells their Euros for USD

5. The euro drops like a rock triggering stops on the way down

6. Bank buys up some more Euros for much less.

7. Repeat from step 1

Moral of this story: Don't believe an umbrella salesman if he tells you it's going to rain today.

Bearish for US equities, if just for a bit. Miss on bottom line, hit on top. Guidance not listed, but well off in the after hours.

well im all loaded long time ago. but on euro yen. im guessing it has most effect on the euro dollar, but i took that trade coz a newcomer on my thread asked for my analysis, and it looks low risk. so i took it

dow jones short waiting on accumulation, now is on momentum,
same deal on euro yen.


ADD: are you serious hahahha, they keep delaying their demise...

Once some volume returns to the markets, this Euro will be dropping. The vote was after markets closed.
Plus Alcoa missed earnings so the equity markets have to react to that news as well.
So far it has been a negative day all around.
Risk-off from here on till some good news.

Pepsi and Marriott report earnings tomorrow.

Yes, and thus far it is proving a nice move, those darned newcomers....

Will be curious to see if the Euro bounces or drops. I think this was largely priced in, but I think some people around here said they would drive up the price of a currency so they could buy it at a higher level to short? Could that not be a better explanation of what happened today and why?
