Equities are up. Lack of patience is offset by keeping federal keeping funds rate below levels "the Committee views as normal in the longer run."

{quote} depends on type... i take (10/25% closed )20+ pips on a scalp if able b.e. and try to hold,, if it was a normal day stop above 7025 or 2510 may be enough i have some there for 7035 on lt trades. but if we drop after news my scalps will be lt also. but i will bring stops down with move.
lt and zombies taken out...0794 is a mid at 0784 atm.. clean sweep on me thus far, even with wording in my favor

Here is my prediction of FOMC..... They will either remove the "patience" or replace it with a milder term...Fed will be very dovish on the dollar to prevent the dollar's up move... What all this means to us, EUR/USD, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, NZD/USD, GOLD, etc will all move DOWN... SHORT SHORT SHORT right before the meeting.. my track record: blew two accounts already and now reloaded my account with 5K for fomc.. either i will make decent money after fomc or another margin call and i will be out of forex forever...

TO BE [patience] OR NOT TO BE, that is the question....

  1. On the fundamental side:

  1. The most important factor to watch is the simple word "patience" in the statement. Taken out patience will serve as a confirmation that HIKES are coming this year despite [check]
  2. The second important factor to track is "INFLATION.... If FED start strongly linking the hikes with inflation instead of with employment will get a ....will get a confirmation that HIKES will be very gradual[check]...

  1. On the technical side:

  1. Finally and the most probable scenario is a more neutral FED. Not taking out "patience" from the statement but strongly hinting to gradual small hikes to come.

  1. for the actual news flow:

  1. However the more probable scenario is a mildly hawkish or slightly dovish FED. .... it will pay in a two legged swing for the euro.[check] .....Patience in the statement will open 1.082x [in play] with strong intermediate targets at 1.069x [check]and 1.078x [check]...

...But the meat comes after when the details of the FOMC gets digested and gradual hikes expectations will get in play to fade 1.082x / 1.078x area [check]for the leg to parity [TBC]but in a more measurable and technical way than a pure knee jerk reaction.

...and that was it for the knee jerk reaction. Easy and nice trade. Clearing 1.069x and 1078x target here and just the crumbs left for the actual press conference. Patience was taken out so the pullback will be very short lived....

Well done all longs pre FOMC...
