USD is hard to rally against developed currencies. You should bet dollar strenght against asian currencies or other trouble countries.What is happening on CNY is leading of what should happen in Asia.

Very true... CAD has been the only USD long working for me. Otherwise everything else just kind of has been in a range for 2-3 weeks.

Speaking of CNY.... wondering how forthcoming Eurozone CPI will look after the CNY devaluation. All Chinese imports getting a 1.2% or so discount pretty much overnight cant help out Draghi much. Im surprised at how todays CPI number COMPLETELY deleted all expectations for action from the ECB.

I just think theres no more will to sell man. People have been getting burned on short EUR for years now. It just never works. As more and more currency hedge funds close up shop theres just nobody around but retailers and the occasional discretionary hedge funds speculating these days. Since theres no market participants that push the trend early in the move... you just get price action like yesterday where theres a short set up.... but everyone takes profit quickly then puts a very tight stop in on any open gains. We dont have the juice to push the market around in the face of the inherent EUR inflows from their 20bn a month current account and banks delveraging for the ECB stress test.


Thats just my rationalization... Ive seen so many unrealized profits of a few grand fade away to a couple hundred bucks im immune to it at this point. I want the next 800-1200 pip move and I think its closer than we expect. GBP and EUR cant keep endlessly powering higher even as the data point the opposite direction.

Real money has to be involved to turn around EUR and GBP. Pension funds and banks need to move money out, and there needs to be a good reason to do so.

I would think that today rally was largely due to the fact that EURUSD broke the high of 2014 rather than the 0.1% increase in CPI numbers.

Lets now see if 1.3770 levels can turn resistance to support level for further rallies.
The true fact is market doesn't care, risk mgt is important.

As I missed the move of today completely (although I got signals for the move but I was lazy and sceptical) I close my personal week.

Made 7 % on each of my three accounts which is not the worst thing on earth, but I hoped for 10%. Maybe next week.

Yes. I've been saying it before, there will be capitulation and euro will not go just to 1.40 it will overshoot, all of this thread will be bulish euro, but not only this thread, the hedge-funds and others that have been "euro bears" on rate/economic diferentials.

Those (idioticly) don't seem to get Draghi memo, and they will realize if not next week then it will be soon. Just a matter of time, euro will fall but there is nothing to trigger it yet, so keep buying.
I won't sell until I see capitulation
