{quote} Why did you expect a gap?
I expected a gap because of the one sided trading we had the entire week. I figured the market would of taken advantage of those who were longing by gapping down.
Banks scalp, why don't you?

{quote} {quote} So I was at the pool 2 nights ago and happened to pumped into someone who is quite interested trading Forex. It appears to me that his friends somehow lured him with the impression 30% gain can be made within 5 seconds or so trading Forex. He was very pumped up of starting a live account, but when i asked him what does the word "leverage" mean in Forex, he did not know. Just another example ppl come in this business with the wrong motive. Always going in for the kill and never consider the consequences.
Yes, Tell him to start with a small account, and to grow it and call you in a year with any questions, in a itemized list.
See what he asks you, and if he is still trading or 'given up', and you'll see by his answers how far he has come.

Gaps? In this dead-slow market? I didn't expect any. Despite it was one-sided trading, there's not actually a "serious" harm done yet, last day was about 40 pips down from open. Not a disaster.. things are slow, and need a trigger to increase volatility.

{quote} Quite Ironic, don't u think! According to Bernanke's clear communication strategy, we should be on the same page - yet we aren't .. Anyway, {quote} Taylor is abit mechanic, not only it won't work in the current situation we have since Lehman - but i doubt you would have agreed for Federal fund rate to be at -1% / -2% back in 2009. Furthermore, Taylor doesn't make the distinction between part time - full time employment. This in particular is pretty much the story in the US Jobs recovery. The same goes to inflation, which maybe contributing...
you don't actually think the fed cares about the SPX etc? you're not some ZHedger are you?

And yes, I know the taylor rule is far from perfect, and I'm not suggesting we should be at 2% now... but I merely say, that whenever we hike from now, its stil dovish. When the taylor rule was negative, instead of rate cuts, the Fed chose QE, which is still acting.

But basically, even if the Fed hikes in Q1 and not Q2, that is still dovish!

Also, there have been a few bumps in US econ, but really nothing too problematic, they have come in unimportant areas (relatively speaking) and won't sway the Feds decision making process more than a few weeks.

Finally, that GS piece is so dated I can't even find it lol! that was from way back last October, relationships have changed so so much since then! Most interest rate models reliant on the 2yr broke around that time when the ECB cut in november. I wouldn't at all believe those numbers because they are very outdated and incorrect.

How they are calculated depends on the complexity you want. simple multi-factor linear regressions can do it, if you want to try on Excel tho.

{quote} Yes sure............. bounce maybe around 1.3390 / 95............first 1.3443 ?
even in a trend some minor news can cause a nice bounce near a support. i dont know if or when it will happen. i will just wait for now and see if i get a hint.

Make it or break it would all depend on this week's USD news.

  1. FOMC (hawkish tone is expected)
  2. Non-Farm Payroll
  3. Unemployment Rate
  4. US Consumer Confident
  5. ADP Employment Change
  6. Q2 GDP forecast
  7. ISM Manufacturing PMI

As for USD dollar, I don't expect there would big change in taper or rate decision in the next FOMC, but i would definitely expect some hawkish tone from Yellen.



On the other hand, as for EURO, anything favors dollar this week would definitely continue fueling the EU bear dive while lowering EURO favors ECB monetary policy. However, I am still quite skeptical on the recent EU dive (mostly technical dive) and if US data somewhat flat, rebounding back above 1.3500 is not entirely impossible.

Exciting week ahead and tons to cover.

Check out this good technical trade opportunity on GBPJPY this week, too.

EURUSD is too heavy.. Entering long here is very risky, and entering short does not look attractive considering how the price is exhausted in 4-hr chart..Maybe it's good to stay flat here.

We agree on many things, my point is: Every time i'm gonna hear about possible monetary tightening in the USA, while Stocks and exposure to risky assets being put on hold / sell side, in my opinion it shows market can't receive the shock ... it's true even with 50 basis points hike, the Feds remain behind the curve- but at the same time, the most important one is the first 25 basis point hike!

In any case, plenty of time till we conclude 2014 and we see how things develop

To be honest I still think EURUSD is a buy. The decline doesn't seem right... I know about Russia and risk aversion but still. My analysis shows me the Euro will recover

How It does not seem right? It dropped all the way down (Look at bigger picture d1,w1,4h) the price is very exhausted/oversold (meaning it's a strong downtrend) I am just discussing and trying to learn from others too, is your analysis technical? fundamental? both? I mean, what tells you that the EUR is a buy? Honestly.. it drops any pips it gains in a milliseconds, It is not the price action you see when price is due recovery, it's near the bottom/lows as well..I am long myself and I am aiming at sub 40x/50x depending on the next hours, can't see how It will recover from here tho, it's very, very heavy.

Earlier on I told you about the trades I am following and I was debating whether I should increase the leverage. I didn't see an answer so I am letting you know I have increased the leverage and took 4 trades, EURUSD long, CADJPY long, Natural Gas long and EURSGD long. I will let you know how the experience went. So far I am in a small profit in Natural Gas. If you can share your opinion I will appreciate it, Weekly Trades

{quote} Ah, your logic is false to start with ... A) You assumed just like the rest of the broken record players that the Euro has to go down. One of the most annoying questions i have been listening too for the last two years, Why the Euro is rising?! As if the right direction must be it falls down ... Do you even remember the Euro trading at $1.65? Would you like to imagine what would have happened to the EURUSD uptrend, if the financial crisis came just two years later?! I guess the Euro will be trading at $1.70 - if not higher. * Euro index...

Listen man, you seem like a smart guy and everything. Not trying to argue with you about anything. You're clearly biased to EU upside and have been for a long time… and good thing for you you were right for a while as it went to 1.4, I hope you made lots of money. Personally I don't see why EU should be above 1.3 and I intend to make money shorting it. Good luck to you.
