Good Night... I think I sleep until 15:00 or so now unless I want to get up earlier.. these winter beers are nice and warm.. even when only having a couple. Ended the night with a nice long EN win, so I am closing down for tonight. I will not be able to hold back the anticipation of turning on my computer once I do decide to get out of bed, and seeing how things held up to the charts I posted tonight.... I hope I don't see any of you laying out there wounded or dead on tonight's battlefield.

remember EU is still be in a bear trend...
The FED is getting more hawkish and ECB more Dovish making EU a bear market taking into account interest rates now further differentiated.


This from yesterday morning:
1) Why will prices be volatile today?
Lack of volume TICK
the answer is no more complicated than that, when volume disappears price can travel greater differences for less transacted volume

2) What is the current market expectation from the FED today?
Hawkish statement and a rate hike TICK although a little less hawkish

3) What will happen to EU if Fed increase interest rates today by 25 basis points?
EU bear trend continues TICK <<--------------------- PAY ATTENTION TO THIS

4) Would a rate rise today be good for equities?
Probably TICK equities rallied
Normally a rate rise can hurt business as it increases cost of borrowing etc but the rise will be small and it will send a clear signal that conditions are improving which would likely result in positive investor sentiment towards equities

I'd like to try some shorts near 1.0928 if the chance presents itself...CHF at some decent R right now, so maybe we see a bounce.....admitedly it would have been more favorable for bears had 1.0795 been taken out...

absolutely, will add; the fed reasoning for raising rates, the risk to the downside (policy still accomodative) is less than the shock of having to raise quickly due to rapid onset of inflation......this tells me fed likely to stick to dot plot (unless data is horrendous)........we got one raise out of the way..no market capitulation............which says we gonna start to partially price in next year rate hikes.......euro just announeced extended qe, traders finally digesting new info.....we going down!!

I'm however really confident in 1.0750 and think 1.0600 is likely

I agree, and all makes perfect sense. But I'm still stunned by the reaction to Draghi 2 weeks ago. It seemed way over-exaggerated, given that he lowered deposit rates to the expected rate. I realise he didn't 'use any of the other tools available in his box', and the market thought he might/could. But I mean, was a 350/400 pip move 'acceptable', based on that? (One can probably tell I'm one of those that was caught short!!).

I also realise there had been a massive bear trend in place for the previous 6 weeks, in which the pair lost 900 odd pips, and maybe a correction/retrace was due, but that move was far more than a correction, given its intensity.

Overall, I guess hopefully divergent CB policies will rule the day for this pair. Hopefully we can take that previous rally with a pinch of salt and accept it as 'one of those things'. In which case fundi analysis and common sense says that things can only go lower from here. All that's needed is a best entry!!
