    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Welcome back! Seems like Greenspans speech is once again a damp squib - and if there is no impact then generally it leads to more of the same - which lately has been weaker dollar. So I'll go with you for a move higher - probably a test of 1.3125 soon... Still question time so don't drop...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Well Bush didn't mention much last night about remeding the structural problems (only about ridding the world of evil) - looks like the market might correct the sell off a bit now. Not looking good for 1.40 anymore - although you never know...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Yes it was pretty wild around the number - I managed to slip in a long which I'm holding on too. I'll be curious to see what happens now - whether the show of USD strength was a correction(long overdue) and the EUR is due to continue to new heady heights is up for debate... if that is the case...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Hi Andy, Thanks for the input - I feel the risk introduced by NFP it to high to make trades this close - I would rather sit on the sideline till the market has digested the news. I would think most short/meduim Traders would do the same at this point. The range today should be tight. And...

    Happy New Year to all FX Traders (and Chinook for starting a great thread) - may this be a profitable one. I see the people are coming back in drips and drabs Also tempted, as it seems a good base is forming here at circa 1.3170. Just the volatile nature of NFP tomorrow has me worried. Which...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Some figures are due to be released in 15 mins - should be interesting to see the dynamic between this and the long weekend looming. I would think good or bad - dollar will be sold and when momentum dies, probably some good profit taking before the long weekend for short term traders which...

    I've read it (nice going with 12% YTD - sure this will improve after today) - here is the link for others. http://news.ft.com/cms/s/42885d34-3cf5-11d9-bb7b-00000e2511c8.html GBP has broken previous resistance and looking to head to next level - 8771. EUR looking to follow suite with new...

    Once through 80 (if it manages to - dollar reminds me of a punch-drunk boxer that has done one to many rounds) things should hurry along very nicely....

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    First lets get through 80! 2915 was where the last slide was stopped - I would think that is the next major line in the sand. I'll see how it acts around 50 en- route. Any target for you in mind?

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Looks like longs are being dumped - not sure why?? I can only think before the G20 meeting this weekend - any other ideas? There is a support line extending from 22 roughly up to 1.2990 - so this needs to break before any meaningful drop I would think. I've shorted from 20

    Yup - been stopped out - all those stops floating above 30 must have been way to tempting.

    Is the lid about to pop?? edit: The risk/reward for shorting now really is very tempting. Maybe a small position with a tighttttttttt stop..... I couldn't resist

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    This is from www.forexnews.com: Tomorrow’s PPI data for October is expected to have jumped to 0.6% from 0.1% but the core rate is seen slowing to 0.1% from 0.3%. Should we see a figure of at least 0.5% in the headline and above 0.2% in the core then one could expect some dollar strength and...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Aside - a interesting bit read from Deutsche Bank Analysis for Today: EUR USD (1.2930) Monday was a very quiet session. After flirting with its recent high in early trade, the euro gradually lost ground and hit a low in NY of 1.2920. The single-currency’s continued stickiness around the...

    Chinook's EUR/USD (E/$)Mumblings

    Yup been a day for the sidelines - I think tomorrows TIC data is a potential market mover and the market is waiting - since the whole deficit saga is being bandied as the main reason for the dollar demise a strong inflow could put the cat amongst the pigeons. If I was EURO long know (and a short...

    Glad you're feeling so confident.... I'm still looking for more consolidation. Containment under 30/40 and target of 2830/2800. I'll change my tune if 2960 is broken.
