Sheesh! Asian session is becoming very treacherous to trade! At least for AUD/NZD. NY and London appearing practically more "predictable" lol.

LOL ... what is going on in china
The strong USD was hurting Chinese exports because they have a reference rate peg to the Dollar. USD is up 16% YOY. Yesterday they shot the first round in an open currency war with the US. This is a big policy shift. With the weakening Chinese economy, the 2% adjustment they made is not going to have an effect on stabilizing growth. They are going to have to weaken the Yuan more.

My post from yesterday.

... the recent move up is a reversal of a large Euro Yuan carry trade. We could see more volatility like this today with position unwinds after the CNY reference rate shift.
The new Chinese policy is going to cause further EURCNY position unwinds which will push EURUSD up, and increased hot money flows out of China into other currencies. This is also going to create shifts in other Central Bank policy if it continues.

It's going to be a busy August.

Any idea what caused that recent sell off in equities gbp... nzd... etc?

So odd too that USD JPY goes up and EUR USD doesn't go down in the process..... we're seeing some strange stuff right now. Signs of risk off coming imo.

This is going to be fluid and aggressive. It's China. They also have a deadline coming up soon for the vote on Remimbi inclusion in the IMF monetary fund for reserve status.

So besides internal economic issues, they need to show greater flexibility in a floating rate versus a fixed peg before the decision takes place.

i understand what you mean... but doing it in such way its way too aggressive but on the other hand what can you say about being aggressive after the SNB decision...correct? ;-)
