Yes... definitely signalling USD strength. Is it a fake? Could be, but we won't know till we see some movement.

That is completely right. It is dangerous to only look at the retail data and just do the opposite. Oftentimes, especially at extremes, they are right. OK, now we can say, even a broken clock is right two times a day LOL


I am not sure, that everyone here understands the sentiment indicator of Dukascopy:

they show the liquidity consumer, which consists out of individual clients, brokers, investment companies and hedge funds. They are now over 51% long, and their long building began a few days ago:

http://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/engli...tch/sentiment/


In the last days I showed a chart with this sentiment index, and we could have seen, that they were most of the time right, but I also marked an area on that chart, where they were badly wrong.
Have no time to look for it now.

Guys is there anyone trading Bitcoin? I am interested in setting up some new account with broker that supports it wondering if anyone has suggestions. Infinitus do you mind explaining how do you see perception of EUR USD war trough article, becouse from my very robust standpoint i dont see EUR having any edge in currency war against dollar. Dollar is backed by Fed and they are importing inflation cheapening dollar trough printing and imports, which increases exchange ratio of EU on upside in favour of USA. How does ECB really have anything in arsenal...
Bitcoin is a sad story for me:

when they droped towards 90 USD this summer I decided to open Bitcoin accounts at two marketplaces. One is located in USA, one in Germany.

I applied EW on the curve, and my impression was, that there was a missing wave C down, and I waited for prices in the 30-60 USD range.
Damn, would I have not been so greedy, I could have entered around 65.

But Bitcoin was no trading vehicle for me, more kind of long term investment, or long term gamble.

For trading volatility is way too high. You can burn your fingers badly when playing it leveraged. JMHO


Regarding EURUSD


Yes, FED has "printed" money

But velocity of money has slowed down very much, that is the reason why we do not see running inflation.

Second factor is "social mood".


Banks get cheap money from the FED. To cause inflation with this, they have to lend the money out to companies and private persons.

But there is a problem: when social mood is bad, or starts to get sour, banks do not like to lend money, and people and companies do not like to borrow.


All what you can see then, is, that banks are producing bubbles by throwing the money to the stock markets and the real estate markets, for example.



Also we have a third factor: it is that USD is world reserve currency. Most of the debt worldwide is denominated in USD. Now we live in times, where much of this debt implodes. That is deflationary to USD, hence its value goes up.


So we have several deflationary forces here:


a) bad social mood
b) decreasing velocity of money
c) imploding USD denominated debt



Hope you get the idea.


And lastly keep in mind:


The US is commodity rich,, the EU is commodity poor. That is a big difference in the equation.


And as long as USD is still world reserve currencie, there are a lot of people with huge interest in strong USD

Infinitus you know what would be cool, if you could filter out only traders that have in last year been profitable most of the time and then get current data on positions longs vs shorts. Now that would be very much different quality of information hehe.

Thanks for input on Bitcoin. Do you mind telling what are spreads like on it? Also what is avarage daily movement in pips.

Hm i think that inflation is there and Fed wants to prop it up, they are importing it and causing it by printing. I think that real factor why we dont see hyperinflation or at least pop up in inflation is only due to all extra dollars being made in Middle East trough petrodollar purchases.

Hehe, well this is only true to default commercial banks. For investment banks we know that lending to them gets at 0 percentage interest rate and especially banks that have companieros of zionists placed on top (JP M, GS...).

Yup meanwhile on other side of Pacific, Chinese are droping T bills purchases from USA, taking EUR as reserve for backing of yuan, and pretty much preaparing for new currency that should or could be up to pair with dollar completly. Talks in London already on its way with preparations, i am only waiting for April to get gold reserves report, and anything around 5k means we could look forward to start trading new global currency in MT4

Sell zone to me for EUR/USD is 1.35. Very good confluence there. Given that this b-wave is larger than one would typically expect, I would expect C wave to overshoot 100% extension as well. Updated with Chart: {image}

regarding Bitcoin:

you can trade Bitcoin on Oanda and plus500. Maybe you look there to get information or a demo account to follow it for a while.


Inflation is measured by

P = M V


where V is the velocity, and M the outstanding amount of money in circulation (that includes credits).

As you can easily see: when Velocity gets smaller, you can print.


Now let us look at the velocity of money in USA


http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/series/M2V


The Velocity of money came down from 2,2 to 1,55

OK, in the same timeframe we have seen a widening of the monetary base from roughly 600 Billions to 3.6 Trillions

When we see this last sentence, we scratch our head and ask, if we have seen indeed so much of inflation already. I think not.


Over the last decade we had several severely bubbles taking place and bursting. This bursting of bubbles have got the inflation under control (because imploding debt is deflationary) (JMHO).


Regarding the Chinese:

to think about it in Elliott Wave sense, this may make the USD an even better place to go long.

The Chinese buy Gold hand over fist, they sell USD hand over fist. Barely have central banks or Governments taken the right steps to the right time.


Maybe the Chinese end up with a pretty bad timing for USD and Gold?

You're probably right, but you must consider if the channel support will provide a bounce first.
We also have bullish hidden divergence and the 78.6% fibo level providing support right here.
Something to consider.

Real gaps happen between market close and market open.
In Forex, the market is never really closed... only the brokers close.
However, because all other markets (Equity, Futures, Options, ETFs, ETN's and all other exchange and otc derivative instruments) are closed, exchange rates don't move, and if they do, it is only in exceptional circumstances.
So, the retail trader who uses a broker that opens 1, 2 or even 3 hours after the market makers turn on their computers and reprice their bids and asks according to what may have taken place over the weekend (Econ data releases, political events), see a gap. It's not really a gap, but as long as the majority of traders see it as such, they will trade it, and if enough trade it, it will close.

Another self-fulfilling prophecy.

Ok so i had nothing to do and just maybe contributed some simple and robust trading setup called bearish/bullish wedge with upper resistance or lower support. It is highly successful pattern the only required thing i use for drawing it is that there has to be presence of lower low fail ("double bottom") or a fail of higher high ("double top").
