Also oddly enough EURCHF and USDCHf are negatively correlated today. ECHF keeps sinking with EU instead of moving north with USDCHF.. odd day...

The Eur is getting raped too quickly for the swissy to keep up

oh well.. the more the EC drops the better case the SNB has to peg the fucker higher...

btw brother I think u r right about this thing needed a major break this week....

I entered these positions with a mjaor fundamental view and large TF as I typically do...

honestly as long as things keep lining up according to plan and the techs meet up... i have no problem seeing the EU at 1.00-1.05 and the UC at 1.115-1.20 in 12-18 months

so Ill keep on truckin away... nothin has happened yet to deter my view... USD keep gaining strength and decoupling from the Euro

Im a little worried about US data disappointing this week however... im lookin for possible negative details from the dept of commerce about Novembers sales, i saw in the weekly redbook that basically said most consumers went apeshit on black riday then havbent shopped since....

plus the US deficet is over 15T(not that that really means shit)

so we may get another pullback but as long as it stays within the constraints of where I need it to Im cool holiding this pig for the long haul

Strange indeed, orb.

That 9300 has got to be getting inevitable. If 9330-50 is cleared...shorts are dead where they stand. Could be violent; something can only be suppressed for so long.

EC IS moving south at a pretty good clip, too...odd indeed.

Could be right...

The last thing the US is going to want right now is a runaway dollar rally (read: tanking Euro). How far are they prepared to go to stop that? Further than many would think, I'm sure.

Did read the same on all the shoppers shooting the load on Black Friday, too.

ya a massive USD rally could unhinge the fragile "recovery" the US is goin through right now

Do I feel after all is said and done the USD will have much greater strength than when this whole thing started? Yes I do... in fact thats my view for 2015

but not yet.... the threat of deflation scares the piss out of bernanke... he wont allow a overly strong dollar rally

I really don't think he will. Unless they want to front-run for a couple of weeks...then dump...and make back a whole bunch of Benjamins to plug some of that 15T hole!

now thats a def possiblity

see the problem is the volume of t-notes available(since that is what backs the QE measures)... without sufficient value(aka USD strength) it is impossible for the fed to launch more QE.... trust me Ben WANTS to launch more QE... badly

but they NEED to see some USD strength roll back in first so the repo market can justify and finance more easing...
