{quote} yes. no delay to rate hike. FOMC understand recent disappointment to NFP was way overdue due to weather effects. however green shoots are seen in wage growth and despite poor job creation in march unemployment rate did not tick up suggesting next strong NFP number is likely going to push unemployment rate further lower to 5.4% or below. rate hike schedule still between June-September, no delay. however decision between June or September rate hike will be highly data dependent.
Speaking of summer months (june~august), after we hit somewhere closer to the yearly lows, I wonder when the next euro corrective spike will be.....

The problem with QE for me is that while we all know it means that currency is slated to go down in the long term, it still can provide some measure of economic reprieve....in macroeconomic terms (daily/weekly chart). And unfortunately, I've neither the patience nor equity to hold trades for weeks or even months on end. It makes things a bit annoying when you get those corrective spikes.

By the way, congrats on waiting long enough to hit the break even area on your euro shorts. You've waited a long time, and I think we've still got room for another leg or two lower. I'd like to say I've been shorting the euro as well, but my shorts are primarily geared for the cable from 1.49000 (right now it's around 1.48286).

I'm eyeing 1.07900, 1.0730 +/- 20 pips, and 1.0680/60 as the next three areas for support (for the euro)

lmao. wont happen.
US equities is not even over priced... why would it correct lmao...
still seeing strong fund inflows to US equities and bonds....

good god. stop trying to predict correction, theres a reason why majority of the market are buy only funds when it comes to US equities, because short side gets killed for trying to pick tops.

US equities market return is not even above their respected PE ratio... not even overpriced.... but yes US is not cheap compared to the world. but not overpriced on PE ratio pricing models.
just stop. you're beginning to sound ridiculous.

not a bad choice for levels.
heres what im baffled i think the UK have depreciated way to quickly on "political reasons" the prime minister election is sure not making the GBP an easy game...
its not like BOE is in easing mode... but the Pound is losing confidence because of this election debacle.... watch out for an election reprieve and GBP may find a hard support soon. probably wont rise against the US, but GBP maybe the next best thing to buy after the USD. consider buying GBP against Euro ie Short EURGBP, or if you think oil may fall to 30-40 a barel, long the GBPCAD looks good too. GBPJPY would also be a no brainer long.

{quote} Ok. We'll see. Watch & learn as it goes up a bit more this month and then comes down hard in coming months.
comes down 10% while US equities have been rallying since ummmm 2008? created new highs at mid 2014....
if worse comes to worse 10% is not even considered coming down hard... sheesh..... besides the first instance of rate hike wont immediately affect the US equities...
it took greenspan to hike interest rates at 0.5% increments all the way up to 7% to collapse the Dot com bubble..... and still US equities still created record highs a year or 2 after that.
please....
stop trolling.....

Actually, that's EXACTLY why I was shorting the old sterling. With the elections coming up in May, & the downward trend of the eur/usd dragging other pairs (i.e. the cable) with it, I thought that shorting the gbp/usd was a "safer" alternative to shorting the eur/usd (which had a tendency to whiplash dozens of pips in the past few weeks). It won't go down as much, but I expected upside for the cable to be limited to 1.49100 or so (it hit 1.491350 I think), while the euro/usd could potentially scrape 1.09000.

I wanted a tighter SL, so I opted for the gbp/usd. Maybe it's a coward's way out, but I have profits locked in and I'm not complaining.

Edit: I plan on longing the geppy again once the cable reaches a decent support....hoping to catch the cable at 1.47500, but probably closer to 1.4800/1.47800. The pip ranges also match with your eur/usd short, oddly enough.

Would be the first 10%+ correction in years. I will buy it for sure, but am going to be selling big at some point this month & I do expect it to drag down USD JPY

good atleast ur secured... my worries is as soon as the election bullcrap is over with in UK, they are still likely to be the 2nd economy to hike interest rates after US.
GBPUSD wont go up much but look to GBP against crosses which are potentially easing..... not much left on the chopping block. EURGBP short is nice and GBPJPY long is nice. GBPAUD.... not sure now....

It would make for a hilarious weekly/monthly reversal if it turns out to be the Scottish Referendum from 2014 again, only this time it's reversed and will spike up like hell after bottoming out.

huh.... you are saying USDJPY is correlated to US equities??
wow, and then my daily routine on the trading floor at the bank was to keep track of US treasuries + Nikkei 225 against USDJPY..... since these are teh well known correlation for USDJPY's move... not really US equities.....

but yes if US eqities drop 10%, i will buy it for sure too, but i would prefer to Avoid shorting, id much rather let the fall play out first then jump in the bull bandwagon.
