....how can a trader say he doesn't consider fundamentals, not even consider?...
Quoting mima
Really, why do you need fundamentals?
Quoting bccorp
Would it not be a fair statement that : every singe moves are driven first of all by fundamental reasons, so much that it make us some times understand nearly nothing because it is just to huge to understand the whole game at the perfection.... so after some say "fundamentals do not matter"...
Quoting bccorp
Technical and fundamentals are the two side of the same coin... Technical is a view of the fundamental assessment of a fundamental picture.

I try to incorporate everything in my trading techniques.

Even in the case of a pullback, imagine a big one, it is a fundamental reason behind it, it is just maybe not a global-macro fundamental reason...

{quote} That would be difficult for me at times because sometimes my technical analysis gives me a direction but fundamentals tells opposite. for this instance. I am more biased short in my technical view but election result can boost the price up, so i have to stand aside until the fundamental situation has passed else i have to make my technicals go along with the upcoming fundamental news which could turn in any direction, so i stick to my technical view which gives me precise targets and my SL is in place in case of any problems. Again my 2...
Hi all,

Using both TA (technical analysis) and FA (fundamental analysis) on any trade of yours would be great; however, saying a profitable trade must have both some amount of TA and FA involved is incorrect.

Just to be safe to put up a counter statement, scalping any position with 2 hour or less hold-time on no larger than the 30m chart may completely ignore FA (although still avoid scalping through major news realse) while position trading any position with 2 weeks or more hold-time beyond daily chart may would never success without having a fair amount of FA involved making your trading decision.

The FOMC should be the driver this week of an USD which goes higher, but I am a bit worry about the CPI, it could also influence USD to the down side... Any thoughts....?
Quoting Voro
Do you think we may see this pair go sideways for a few days?
I wouldn't be surprised to see USDJPY price contained within 117.50 and 120.00 within the next 48 hours till the next round of FOMC release.

If Fed is committed normalizing its policy in Q1 of 2015, price would easily go beyond 122.00 barrier; if the "considerable time" is still lies somewhere within the first paragraph of the upcoming FOMC statement, a correction down to 115.00 would be fairly reasonable, too.

Hi KenA,
Don't you think the markets right now are pretty much in sync, most of the pairs, indices and commodities and it is more about trading the product(something sounding right and not bullshit) giving you the most profit?
A trade should be based on an assumption based on facts

I know.

Was close before as well. Just have to see what price does. To be honest I am now starting to think that those that are driving this market down are not going to stop before FOMC. Expect tomorrow to be another seller day after what happened today.

Then wed is the big day.

Holy freaking jesus this sucker shot past the 118 region into 117 territory you know how long it's been around the 118 to upper 118 region?
  • #53,594
  • Dec 15, 2014 1:20pm Dec 15, 2014 1:20pm
Do you know how many times price shot upwards from 118 even up till 119.1 i believe before going downwards then shooting up again before finally hitting 117 right now.

I lost on a trade cos it hit 119 as my sl was around 118.9. Put in more trades kept on changing my tp from 118.3 to 118.5 before it hit with a smaller tp and went no to trade in the eurusd before coming back and realizing it hit past 118 before ranging into 117 territory now kind of makes me a bit upset i didn't put in a wider tp.

It is due to panic in the stock markets over oil slide, fed rate rise, etc... If the fear continues, we will see further down I guess... else like the other poster says, likely to head up. Also depends on Japan's news and what new stimulus Abe's groupies come up with.

ps: maybe our friend in BOJ will say something on friday to halt the further UJ slide?
