Most retail brokers double swaps on Wednesday/Thursday to make up for the weekend as most retail brokers are closed for the weekend. So depending on your broker, you may find a double swap day somewhere during the week.
its usually on tue but

if she bounces and closes below 3086 i am in... 3076 or higher is better for me. 3014 seems like a good place to target.
we didnt make it back to 31xx so i may be able to hold this one LT.. waiting on the bounce

If you had "naked" swaps, I could see it........but you have to pay brokerage fees etc. It's really not worth it. The Spread is like worth 1 pip in spread costs......almost worthless. If you happen to buy Aud vs JPY and hold it, sure you get a few extra dollars, but that should just be an added benefit, not a strategy or barely more than a consideration.

If 62 does not cap current hour, 74 is target.

hi killer!

yes but daily swaps last night almost doubled,

any idea about swaps?
actually most brokers triple them on Wednesday because settlement falls at the weekend which you can't do.

Check with your broker, they have to make up for Saturday swap somewhere during the week as most retail brokers are closed, alternatively get a broker that stays open and you won't have that problem......

Still keeping the LONGs @ 1.3070 and 1.3081 mate but this hourly close does not seem to be a pleasant one if it is below 1.3076. What do you think???

if the US dollar index can close above 80.00 then the bears for EU are in business.

We have always been a financial heaven since late 18th century, that is unlikely to change no matter what. But I hear what you are saying and even I agree on many of the points you mention here, these are not the only reasons I dislike this crap union. I do not see the uncompetitive countries benefiting from it. Look at Greece, Portugal even Spain... ıt can't imply the theory into practice. EU might be a great dream but with the incompetent way of dealing problems, it becomes a burden for poor countries in it and it is just a way of taking...

I see the whole European mess right now as an interest rate driven problem. When the Southern countries joined the EMU they did not do so because they wanted the euro, they did so because they wanted German/Dutch/Finnish interest rates.

Overnight their cost of borrowing dropped from 10+% to less then 4-5 depending on which country, that allowed them to go a bit berserk in their spending, they are politicians after all and a sure whay of getting reelected is build shit for the masses, spend money in constituencies up and down the country. Spain went ballistic on building cheap villas, airports and public buildings, they have now amassed a greater housing stock then the US has, that is just silly. Greece build an airport in Athens, held the olympics and build a railway from Athens to Thessaloniki that cost more to run then putting each and every passenger in a taxi.

Local businesses in the South also benefited from the lower rates as it filtered down to them. Their rates have ballooned and we now see unemployment rates of 25% in Greece/Spain/Portugal.

All was well in euroland until the shit hit the fan and rates started going up in the periphery, at that point refinancing the earlier cheap debt became unaffordable and we entered the spiral we are in now.

None of this would have happened if the market sets rates instead of some unelected bureaucrats. That would be the ultimate form of capitalism, Austrian school style.
