Tracking USD Long Set-Ups While EUR Is Below 1.3450 and USDCHF above 0.9145 / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Gregor_Horvat
We can see some USD strength at the start of this European morning coming back into the market which has been expected based on the latest intraday price action. We were looking for a three wave move down on USDCHF with our members, and so far we can see that pair found a bottom nicely around 0.9190 from where we can see some encouraging upside reaction. Looks like we could be heading back to 0.9290, and possibly 0.9330 this week.

USDCAD Elliott Wave Analysis - Short-term Pointing Towards 1.0120-1.0150 / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Gregor_Horvat
USDCAD reversed sharply to the downside at the end of the last week, clearly in impulsive fashion, so structure is now pointing for weaker USDCAD if we consider that rally from 1.0243 was made in three legs, called a correction. We are talking about wave B that has a high in place at 1.0442 from where we expect an impulsive extension down in wave C, back to 1.0243 and possibly even to 1.0150 in this week while 1.0442 is not breached. Recently minor correction has stopped at 1.0350-1.0370 resistance zone from where weakness could resume.

U.S. Dollar Climbing vs. YEN / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Mike_Paulenoff
Weaker than expected, Japanese growth and new Mr. Abe’s comments that he is thinking about reducing the corporate tax rate to help offset the sales tax hike apparently has convinced all the naysayers that a weaker YEN still is very much part of the Abe "construction" plan.

Learn Forex Trading Event Last Day! / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: EWI
Dear Forex Trader,
For the past two weeks,EUR/USD has moved mostly sideways. It's been -- for lack of a better word -- boring.
Yet, you may know from your own experience that the longer a consolidation takes, the faster and farther the price jumps once it ends.

The Best Currencies to Invest in for 2013 / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Money_Morning
Don Miller writes: Currency markets in the first half of 2013 have been roiled by central bankers' delusional efforts to prop up their lackluster economies.
That means the best currencies to invest in for 2013 - or, the remainder of the year - will be in Asia and Canada - countries where the governments have refused to engage in debasing their currencies in a "race to the bottom."

Gold, US Dollar Index and 3 Currency Market Forecasts / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: David_Petch
This article was posted for the benefit of subscribers on Wednesday, May 15th, 2013. I have included one Elliott Wave count of gold at the very end...it is not important to understand the wave count, just the implied direction, which should be hinted at the US Dollar Index. I was following a pattern for 5 years that changed due to one small thing that happened and was discussed for a few months now. Since it happened, it was a game changer and has important consequences for everything going forward. The Contracting Fibonacci Spiral that I discovered nearly two years ago is approaching its extended time post of May 21st, 2013 and if it extends further, the potential downside will be faster and see a compression in time for what the potential downside is. I would encourage everyone to at least read this article and try to understand the big picture, because it is one of the most important articles I have written in the past two years.

The Best Way to Trade the Currency Wars / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Money_Morning
Shah Gilani writes: The world may not be engaged in a currency war yet, but it is engaged in a growth war.
With domestic demand in most home countries anemic to moderate, the universal objective is growth by exports.
Unfortunately, countries doing battle in the growth-by-exports wars end up skirmishing in the foreign exchange markets. That's because every country that wants to export its goods and services wants them to be relatively cheap compared to its global competitors.

Surprising Winner of the Currency Wars / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Money_Morning
Martin Hutchinson writes: It's war by other means. With the Bank of Japan now buying government bonds and targeting an inflation rate of 2%, a global race to the bottom is on again.
Along with the Fed's commitment to "quantitative easing" and the ECB's promise to buy dodgy Mediterranean economies' bonds, Japan's latest move has sparked new fears of a currency war.

Currency Wars and ECB's Shrinking Balance Sheet / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Ashraf_Laidi
Are the euro's gains just starting as the ECB balance sheet shrinks further from LTRO repayment?
278 European banks have repaid €137 bn in the first LTRO operation, which raised € 489 bn in December 2012. LTRO-2 from February 2012 now receive a repayment of about €250 bn.On today's announcement, Spanish 10-year yield saw its biggest decline of all Eurozone bonds, losing 15 bps versus a mere 3 bps for its Italian counterpart. This is partly explained by the fact that Spanish banks were the biggest borrowers in LTRO-1 lending, accounting for 41% of total take-up, compared to 25% from Italian banks.

The Best Currencies to Invest in for 2013 / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Money_Morning
Larry D. Spears writes: The best currencies to invest in for 2013 come from Asia, South America, Australia - but not the United States.
The Federal Reserve's misguided insistence on a loose monetary policy, ongoing resistance to government spending cuts, and another increase in the U.S. debt ceiling will all conspire to boost inflationary pressures and restrain the value of the U.S. dollar.

Forex Trading: Why You Need to Look Past "Fiscal Cliffs" / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: EWI
First, a word on how we all are conditioned to think that, "momentum will remain constant unless acted on by an outside force." Read this excerpt from Robert Prechter's May 2004 Elliott Wave Theorist:

This mode of thought is deeply embedded in our minds because it has tremendous evolutionary advantages. When Og threw a rock at Ugg back in the cave days, Ugg ducked. He ducked not necessarily because his mind had inherited and/or learned the consequences of the Law of Conservation of Momentum.

EUR/JPY - The Fear Of 108.00? / Currencies / Forex Trading
By: Forex_Abode
Euro - Japanese Yen has been making attempts to break over 107.95 for past 3 trading days but has been failing to do so. The drop took it to 106.12 before the currency pair closed for the week at 106.66.
The fact that EUR/JPY has not been able to break over 107.95 suggests that we can expect some downward consolidation. Please note that this zone had proved to be a very strong resistance area during April 2012 and a strong fall had taken place from here. But on the other hand the support came exactly at 22-day EMA and that keeps us neutral initially. The weekly MACD stays above the signal line very bullishly, while the daily MACD has moved below the signal line. This also indicates that some downward consolidation may take place while bullish sentiments continue to hold.
