what up bastard...

where you been?
Slow trading in general bro. Nothing special across the board since early last week and pretty much sidelined in the euro as is outside of my monthly scope so just letting it roll to refresh. As I mentioned last week, only tracking 1.315x for the roll.

Cable looking interesting, indexes a bit noisy, coughing in chop zone so nothing really exciting here...

same here bro, although I did take some shorts today for 3025, and next months mid maybe, 2938ish...would like that dumb PSI to get passed this week, but I might have a better chance of monkeys flying out of my ass, whats your take on EUR/CHF now, more importantly the impact on EUR/USD..

I like a test 1.295x in the euro.

On EURCHF, from a strictly TA point of view and without debt and SNB in the picture, I would take a blind short 1.206x to 1.11xx. Strong rejection of resistance in a downtrend confirmed in daily/weekly and prolly today monthly. However, that is not remotely possible with SNB watching like a hawk EZ debt outcome in March. I will never ever bet against a CB, worst after what we saw what the SNB is capable last year.

In simple words a useless brilliant setup for shorts in the EURCHF. IMO, only open intervention (in a debt risk event) will have a measurable impact in eur/usd ....so EURCHF is discard in any of my plans short/mid term....

That press conf was meh with an extra side of meh

I think we just saw US hedge fund EU short covering and esp USD selling from a better price as they hedge currency risk for the monthly roll

I expect more USD weakness through Asia, small rally during London... And a major ass ramming of all the USD bulls at the 11am est fix as the EU pushes to the 3329

the bold has happened.... beware the ass ramming
