    Greenback come back

    Still no intervention, but many long stops would have got taken out by the move down, thus increasing the move. I was fortunate enough to capture things from 1.2687 after it breaking the trend line on my charts and just "gut feel" (I dont have a mechanical system at all, I just use MACD and...

    Greenspan Boosts Dollar???

    Recent strength is just a much needed and healthy pull back of a overextended drop, it will pull back some more before getting weaker again and surpassing recent lows. The numbers that have been mentioned have not really changed the overall outlook longer term, couple of pieces of "ok'ish"...

    Greenback come back

    This is the start of a very much needed pullback in my opinion..very healthy, but not going to be the end of the dollars fall in the longer term. It will find solid support for sure around 1.19/20 mark i.e previous high, before heading 1.30+ Again, only my opinion....will just see how...

    Why Euro is bad

    Im really glad you posted this, ive been having many an argument with people in the UK over the Euro and this just adds some charge to my ammo! The BBC had this on Italy: "Italian premier Silvio Berlusconi has said the European single currency has yet to deliver any economic benefits. In...

    How American BSE affects American Economy?

    This is a huge problem...living in UK ive seen/heard/read the news on all what happend when we had it, I hope that this can be shown as just an isolated case and get things cleared up quickly for US sake. Its not the end all and be all but its a fair chunk of change to lose in exports for the US.

    Mad Cow -> Milk -> Butter -> Cheese -> Ice Cream ?

    Its only supposed to be found in brain/spinal tissue etc...not meat/milk...the biggest concern is splintering of bone during processing and contaminating the meat...apparently, from what the UK said of it all back when we had it.

    Currency Killers

    I agree, when the daily average on the currency markets is over 1 trillion US dollars traded....some guy with 28 Billion or so is just a drop in the ocean...even if Buffet was transferring over 75% of his net worth into other currencies it would just be a blip on the screen. I can appreciate...

    Insider Trading in Forex

    I dont know, while a fair chunk of cash for most people, in the grand scheme of things buying or selling USD, Eur, GBP, whatever, 2Mil just fades into the background noise. If something was to hypothetically happen say tomorrow, or next week (that you know was going to happen). Would someones...

    Russia to price oil in euros in snub to US

    This is quite bad news for the US, forcing others to buy up US debt in exchange for oil has helped a long term debt culture. But if some other nations start to do the same, expect a vast amount of dollars to be offloaded for the Euro. Saddam started selling in Euros, look where it got him!! :P...

    inherently unethical ??

    Im ammused by the witch hunt that is still going full force, then again no other market is open to manipulation by anyone are they? The markets commonly traded on ET are run by saints are they not. A few people lose some money and ForEx is branded for life on ET. Isnt that one of the...

    Reference Currency not USD

    Ive thought about the long term prospects of the Euro too, certainly one policy for many countries has built in problems with the French/Germans flouting their self imposed rules the moment they want too not giving a good sign. However how long term is long term? For the purpose of the...

    Reference Currency not USD

    While not a sole US problem, it also has a HUGE trade deficit and while the dollar will obviously not plumit to hell it does have room to go alot lower than what it is. The whole reason John Snow has been touring Asia is trying to get China, Japan etc to let their currencies get stronger vs the...

    OPEC really pisses me off !!!

    Yep, but the cut is for a prolonged period, whatever that period is, so 1 day in the market is not really signifcant compared to the time span they will be looking at, the USD is set for alot more weakness over the coming weeks regardless of today, tomorrow, this week. Again though I was just...

    OPEC really pisses me off !!!

    It could also be in response to the US wanting to weaken the dollar. Weaker dollar, oil is always paid for in dollars, $30 per barrel (whatever it is), needs to go up to compensate as dollars are now not worth as much. After all their just looking after their own intrest, just like everyone else.
