EURo Rallied by 90 pips

fxsurprise8 Publicado 14 Abr  en #Trader's blog #Euro #Eurusd
The Euro rallied by 90 pips today. The primary driver behind the Dollar losses today was the US Retail Sales, which came in worse then expected. Data showed that sales rose by 0.9 percent last month, compared to market forecast for a gain of 1.1 percent. The core retail sales were even worse, with +0.4% vs +0.9% exp.
I'm sticking with my short. The ECB press conference tomorrow should give us an update on the QE program. This may be the catalyst needed to return to the Euro downtrend.

Holding Dollar Longs Over the Weekend

fxsurprise8 Actualizado 18 Oct  en #Trader's blog #Eurusd #Usdchf
I am holding my US Dollar longs over the weekend. My short EUR/USD trade is currently at - 24 pips while my USD/CHF long is +7 pips in the green. The Dollar reversal during the last two days recovered most of my losses and propelled back in the top 10. I'm currently at number 8 spot!
It will be a volatile two weeks until the FOMC meeting on October 29th. Markets may overreact at every piece of news coming from the US. I am sticking with my EUR/USD shorts for now, as I expect ECB easing to weigh …

Getting Caught by Bullard

fxsurprise8 Publicado 17 Oct  en #Trader's blog #Euro #Eurusd #Fomc #Bullard
Risk sentiment rose and my Euro shorts got crushed on unexpected dovish comments by non-voting FOMC member Bullard yesterday. In an interview for Bloomberg TV, Bullard said that: ''Inflation expectations are declining in the U.S. That’s an important consideration for a central bank. And for that reason I think that a logical policy response at this juncture may be to delay the end of the QE.''
The fact that Bullard, usually a hawkish FOMC member uttered those comments propelled risk assets highe…

The Euro Can't Make Up Its Mind

fxsurprise8 Actualizado 14 Oct  en #Trader's blog #Euro #Eurusd
The Euro can't make up its mind. After closing up by +119 pips yesterday, the currency pair reversed most of the gains today by closing 94 pips in the red. Thus my long position entered at 1.2695 is currently 40 pips underwater. My USD/CHF short is 23 pips in the red.
I am keeping my positions open. I have EUR/USD long, USD/CHF short and USD/DKK shorts on. The massive swings up and down should eventually lead resolve themselves and lead to a one-sided movement. I will reconsider my Euro long on …

It Was a Good But Not Great Day

fxsurprise8 Publicado 13 Oct  en #Trader's blog #Eurusd #Rally #Us Dollar
Today was a good but not a great day for me. If you remember, I was bearish the US Dollar in my last few blog posts. Unfortunately on Friday I forgot to reduce my Euro longs so I can comply with the 30/1 leverage. This meant that all my positions got closed.
On Monday morning, I made a second mistake of not reopening my closed Euro LONG trade at 1.2635. Thus I missed the entire rally from 1.2625 to 1.2695. I finally reentered my trades late on Monday, after most of the rally was over. I'm still …

EURo Down as US Equities Retreat

fxsurprise8 Publicado 9 Oct  en #Trader's blog #EUR #USD #Dollar #Eurusd #Dow #Us Stock
After spiking at 1.2790 early in the Asian trading session, the Euro started a slow and prolonged decline that saw it move below 1.27. This hurt by Dollar longs and I fell from number 4 to number 7 in the rankings. The reason for the Dollar gains was the reversal in US equities. After gaining 1.9% yesterday, the Dow fell by 2.1% today.
I'm still up about 20-30 pips on my Euro long and I plan to keep this trade open. I will be looking for an exit above 1.2850, hopefully closer to 1.30. A move bel…
