BRL during the Summer Olympics 2016

The FIBO Group, Ltd financial experts were keeping a wary eye not only on the sports achievements of the Olympics in Rio, but also on the national currency of the Olympics venue the Brazilian real.

The 2016 Summer Olympics were held from 5 August to 21 August. During that time the Brazilian real (BRL) strengthened significantly against the US dollar. However, the sellers managed to take the considerable part of the previously lost positions back by the end of the tournament. Moreover, it is important to take into account that traders trade not only facts but expectations as well. As practice shows, the activity on the financial markets may increase significantly by trading on expectations. And there was no exclusion in this case the Brazilian real had started to strengthen actively even prior to the Summer Olympics opening ceremony in Rio de Janeiro.

That was a pretty much expected market reaction as the abnormal influx of tourists such as athletes, their supporters, as well as the overall investment fund would, obviously, help to support the national currency.

Therefore, at the beginning of July the exchange rate for the currency pair USD/BRL reached the maximum level of 3.6260. Although, by the middle of the Olympics, August 10-11, the currency pair rate reached its minimum at 3.1160. Thus, it can be noted that the strengthening of the Brazilian currency was slightly more than 14% in the first 8 weeks of the summer. However, by now the buyers of the USD/BRL currency pair have managed to recover a part of the earlier lost positions, as the prices reached 3.2460/80, which is the maximum level before the opening of the Olympics.

Moreover, the traders should consider the fact that weakening of the currency pair prices was caused not only by the strengthening of the Brazilian currency, but also weakening of the US dollar. Therefore, the end of the Summer Olympic Games would become a negative factor for the Brazilian currency, as the outflow of tourists would reduce the demand for BRL, thereby providing the additional support for the currency pair prices. At the same time, the potential of the US dollar strengthening in the medium term would contribute to the strengthening of the currency pair.

The return of the prices to the level of 3.2200/150 cancels the bull trend and we may anticipate further weakening of the currency pair prices.

Electoral utopia will affect the US dollar exchange rate
The lull in the financial world seems to be alarming. For about half a month, the quotations of the major indexes have not changed significantly. The charts that demonstrate a thready pulse would generate a lot of speculations and create the most unexpected forecasts. The main locomotive of the World economy is America and, particularly, its monetary system. During the election campaign in the United States there is a semblance of stability in the financial sector - all macroeconomic statistics begins to demonstrate only positive dynamics. Based on this, the general public /society have confidence to the candidates there.
However, in contrast to this, the idyllic picture may not come true this week. The reason is in the anticipated news on the labor market in America. This indicator is the first one in a series of important financial publications of September. With the positive news the likelihood for increase of the key rate in the US can be increased, and if that happens, starting from 2 September the calm and peaceful atmosphere in the world of finance will be gone, and we may expect some serious dynamics in all types of markets.

Presentation of the new iPhone 7 and its impact on the market.

Last week Apple has pleased users with presentation of the new flagship smartphone, iPhone 7. Immediately after the presentation started sales of the company's shares, causing on Thursday, 8th September 2016 its price dropping for more than 2 percent. Everyone who wanted to gain this event had it clear that at the time of the presentation there wont be any sharp rise, and got rid of the shares.
Following the drop of shares of one of the most popular IT companies the US index S&P500 has been reducing as well. The Apple's impact on the US indexes is very high. Such technical picture may cause further reduction of the index that may push speculators to consider further the declining strategy for the current market.
The beginning of the new week has confirmed the trend: index S&P500 is falling and the dollar gets stronger. This information can be used to trade along the analysts of the company FIBO Group, Ltd.
We suggest to pay attention to all the currency pairs, where the US dollar is involved. In addition to the currency market instruments we can also offer to our clients the opportunity to trade CFD, looking for the ticket US500.DEC6.

There is nothing special in iPhone7 as for me... there is almost no difference with 6th... but they made from this news such big sensation....

The new start of financial markets

It's already 2 weeks of underestimated liquidity in the financial markets.

Went the second week of understated liquidity in the financial markets, most of the assets of the financial market are no longer vary in price. The reason for this is the planned press-conference of the Committee (FOMC) and the speech of Janet Yellen on Wednesday. This event is the initial point for the majority of speculative strategies on the financial markets.

The world economy depends on the monetary system of America. In case of the key overnight interest rate raises, the events start to develop rapidly. All assets tied to the U.S. dollar, will attract the attention of great speculators, thus creating the next Rally, which in turn can escalate into something worse. So, with the negative outcome of a meeting of oilmen in Algeria, oil will fall in value and there is a possibility of reoccurrence of the previous crises' events.

On Wednesday will be held one of the most expected events of September. The fed will announce major interest rates. Still remains intriguing, although more than 85% of the experts surveyed believe that the regulator will not venture to raise rates at the meeting on September 21. However, there is a conviction that the fed may raise rates four times this year. This may happen because of a mixed macroeconomic statistics of the USA in recent times.

Gold up for 4th straight day.

The gold price is headed for its 4th straight day of gains today, brushing of unexpected moves from the Bank of Japan while awaiting the latest interest rate decision from the US federal Reserve later in the trading session.

At 4.30pm (GMT) the gold price was trading at $1,330 up from $1,315 in yesterdays trading.

In a surprise move, the BOJ unexpectedly announced that they would continue their stimulus program to boost inflation which should have pressure the gold price but the yellow metal stayed resilient.

I believe that the BoJs pledge to keep policy loose not only until they achieve their inflation target but until they overshoot their target on a sustainable level is the most radical thing Ive heard from a central bank, said Marshall Gittler, head of investment research with FX PRIMUS.

Gold is likely to receive a further boost today if ass expected the Fed decide to leave interest rates on hold which should spark a sell off of the US dollar and push traders into other investments such as gold.

FIBO Group: consensus won't be archived.

Since the beginning of this week representatives of oil world has been discussing hot issues concerning the field of oil production. An extraordinary meeting of the oil companies is held in Algeria on 26,27 and 28 of September 2016.

This meeting is touted by mass media as the most anticipated event of this September. Attention of all investors drawn to the chart of oil, and even the smallest analytical agency is committed to give its outlook and commentary.

If we collect all available information, we can make a suggestion that consensus won't take place. Moreover, energy ministers in one voice declare that the сondition of the oil market is even worse than condition which was during previous meetings about six months ago. Nowadays supply exceeds demand and oil production countries renovate historical records that is why there are all reasons to hold the position for sale.

The meeting of representatives of Saudi Arab and Iran was held in Vein but didn't brought any results. Iran doesn't agree to reduce volumes of raw materials but, on the contrary, plans to increase it (as well as the rest of the volumes).

On Wednesday evening, on the 28 of September 2016 the situation on the reduction of the level of oil production will be fully clarified and it creates unique opportunities for receiving earnings.

Available for trading:

Gold down for 5th straight day
The gold price continued to fall today, racking up its 5th day off losses as fears subsided over the fate of the European banking system with Deutsche Bank allegedly close to making a deal with the US government.
At 5.13pm (GMT) gold was trading at $1,311 down from $1,316 in yesterday’s trading.
After initially demanding US$14 billion from Germany’s biggest bank by way of penalties linked to its MBS business, which would have seen the bank on the verge of bankruptcy, US regulators have agreed to US 5.4 billion dollar fine, bringing a sense of calm over the markets.
Also weighing on the gold price today is a stronger US dollar boosted by better than expected manufacturing data which increased the chances of a rate hike from the Fed in December.
The purchasing manager's index (PMI) hit the market at 51.5, bouncing back from a number of 49.4 in August.
A number above 50 shows the sector in expansion mode.
"The September PMI release breathes a sigh of relief to growth concerns given the survey's abrupt deterioration in August," said Brittany Baumann, a macro strategist at TD Securities.
"Besides the headline index, which is consistent with its 6m trend, the details were broadly supportive of continued expansion in manufacturing activity and suggests that the August drops were likely a blip." He added.
Speculation surrounding the chance of a rate hike in the US before the end of the year may be just enough to keep gold from building up any steam and rallying much further.
“With investors uncertain on whether the Fed will raise rates this year, there is just enough of a headwind to keep gold prices under pressure,” said Peter Hug, global trading director at Kitco Metals.

Is it the end of the oil rally?

Since the end of September, we see the continued oil rally. In less than two weeks, oil prices have risen more than 10%. However, since the very beginning traders treated the idea of the oil prices growth with caution. The reason: there aren't fundamental and technical factors.

At the end of last week Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said that the agreements concerning the freezing of oil production will not be achieved. This statement gave the market downward momentum, last Friday (Oct. 7) the price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) decreased by 98 cents. Besides the statement, there are other drivers that can add to the negative impact to Mr. Novaks statement. Among them, there is the publication of the of the official monthly OPEC report. Its figures clearly demonstrate that here is no decrease in the level of black gold mining. Moreover, in September the information, that Russia and Saudi Arabia will reach new records in oil production, repeatedly published. This fact could impact negatively on dynamics of prices.

Popular drivers could become data concerning oil reserves in the USD, that are published on Tuesday by the American Petroleum Institute (API), while on Thursday these data are published by US Department of Energy. Traditionally, these data show a reduction in oil reserves in America. This fact can create a positive dynamic of prices.

The attention of speculators and investors again focused on events in the oil industry. That means that liquiditys come back to the oil marker and, in any scenario, we are waiting for a very interesting "Oil Week.

Group of companies FIBO GROUP gives opportunity to implement any investment strategies, including strategies with the use of oil assets.
Avaliable for trading:
1) Canada Raw Materials price (look for USD/CAD in the list of the instruments)
2) Contract for American oil (USOIL).

October is a corporate reporting season

In the end of September fiscal year of many American companies ended, so October is the time for corporate reporting. Massive submitting of reports which may not always meet the expectations of the market causes a turbulence during which significantly increases the liquidity of the US stock market. Some investors get rid of the securities that have not met their expectations, the others, on the contrary, are in a hurry to invest in attractive assets.
Reporting season has been opened with aluminum giant news - we're talking about Alcoa (AA) company. As a result, the company's capitalization has decreased during the trading session by more than 7% as a result a downward trend for all indices was set. The downward trend intensified after publication of the reports by pharmaceutical sector. Assets Illumina Inc. (ILMN) lost more than a quarter of the price after cutting of the forecast on revenue.

Oil, Gold and the US Presidential Elections.

This week will be an interesting week in the markets and probably one of the most volatile weeks of the year.

Gold has risen over 20 percent in the run up to the US Presidential elections which is unusual as it has fallen before the past 4 elections.

The 2 candidates (Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump) have very different policies and whoever wins the election will affect the markets differently.
We expect gold will remain supported no matter who wins but if it is Trump a jump of around $200 in the gold price is expected as his wild policies are expected to bring a lot of uncertainty to the markets.

That being said, we believe that the latest polls putting Trump ahead are not correct and Clinton will win the election so trades should be placed according to this.
Oil will not be affected very much by the elections but we suspect it will fall as the deal to cut production from OPEC members will not happen on November 30.
This is to be expected as history shows that OPEC deals rarely come about.

So to sum up, the best trade up until the election will be to hold a long position in Gold as we believe it will go higher no matter which candidate wins with further gains expected after the election.

More analysts you can find on FIBO Group website.

Thanks for the detailed information.
It seems that fibogroup.eu does not accept accounts from my country and fibogroup.com does not have MT5 NDD accounts though it claims to have on the web site.
Since I"m looking for MT5 broker it doesn't seem help me.
