Currency wars and artificial devaluations to pump exports is a losing game and there is no one single example in world economy history that have shown positive results (actually quite the opposite) if abused for a long period of time...

In any case, what your TA view mate after this mess today on rumors. I am tempted to long around these levels 1.373x with NY but I am a bit cautious as the moves were not FA or TA related. I will have to decide on the fly...

3730 has been a bastard before. may not be a bad idea..

looks like a down opening range 119x area and up 124xx between today and Monday ...the key is on the test of that daily S area in my books...

liquidity seeks its own level. we have never been here before. the gbp is not 2.x for a reason anymore. the chf could not support its strength this year. it was Europe and the u.s. but now we have Asia. so our levels have to meet with them.. we go down as they go up, to seek its level. no economist or any other figurehead can say how this will end or evolve because its all new. charts don't include the human emotion. if you take a dollar out your pocket and give it to me. your weaker and im stronger. if i take that dollar and buy something you need. the demand makes your cost higher. further weakening you. multiply that billions of times and we got a trend.

Hard to be wrong today. If you made a bad play, just wait 10 minutes as price will have completely flipped on you.
