Went 2 short at the 1,387 line will hold them till taper reduction of bonds but will definatly bail before yellen talks I don't trust her and I think she will be uber dovish to give some extra juice to the usd stock market ( p.s 0,1% premialiry gdp that's pretty sad below Europe levels lol )

its probably best not to read to much into any particular number... eurozone cpi would have been lower had it not been for the recent rise in oil prices. More importantly The YoY comparison isnt exactly the same period either, last years April period didnt include the easter holiday. Last months number wasnt a clean comaprison either because of this same awkward scheduling of Easter holiday. True inflation is somewhere between this months number and last months number.

The big jump in services prices is payback of last months two tenths decrease, sadly flash cpi doesnt offer month over month numbers


Easter Sunday -March 31 2013
​Easter Sunday -April 20th 2014

Interesting trend lower in industrial goods though, accelerated down in the last 2 months. CNY related maybe?

She looks a little shocked ( Wowed) but I'm sure its only because of the money The Fed was making off the move in the markets. The Big Bankers never lose!

flows and fundamentals are going in opposite directions. US fundamentals for the most part have been good as of late, while Europe has been bad.

But right now, and this has been the case more or less since July 2013... markets ignore the fundamentals due to flows. Flows for european banks to deleverage in preparation for the stress test...flows related to M&A deals...and in my opinion the one that matters the most by far... China flows.

The rate of increase in their FX reserves has accelerated massively since they starting printing Yuan to buy Dollars in LAte February. Around 30-40% of the Dollars they buy are diversified into EUR and other currencies, but their main USD alternative is the EUR. (This same flow explains periphery debt rally and US treasuries stuck between 2.6% -2.8% since february).

During a period like now, when volume is low. This becomes an insurmountable flow to sell USD. This flow looks for pools of liquidity to strike, as it occurred this morning when price traded to the obvious stop loss level of 1.3780 agents of the Chinese central bank appear on dealer screens bidding for amounts that are massive in relation to the prior outstanding volume being traded. Dealers positioned to run stop losses below 1.3780 are immediately paniced to cover their shorts and go long and price then ramps 50 points in the other direction. This has happened over and over and over again in the last 2 months and will continue until the CNY intervention ends.

Once it does there is no more bid below to market to scare every one out of their shorts, and you will get the fast and clean move down(assuming the prevailing economic fundamentals and central bank policies warrant a lower EURUSD).

hmm go thinking and find your best strategy when eurusd targeting 1.3600, dont start thinking when eurusd approach 1.3600, you will be late
10 days passed...And it is moving further and further from 1.3600....You must be wrong this time.
