This is just and extracted post from my latest article which you can find it here: Greece next Lehman Brothers Event?
  • FX Market - Risk Aversion

Markets have consistently experienced " 100-year events" every five years. Paul Tudor Jones

They say the Black Swan events are characterized by rarity and extreme impact and once again the financial markets are proving this to be wrong as theory has nothing to do with reality. Not so long ago we had the SNB event which disrupted the market activ…

I scored on both ends of that deal !  Hahaha ! Honesty, I thought it an excellent Article since planning ahead affords peace of mind, which is really beneficial. Personally, I don't have enough years of experience, so the input was really helpful. All in all, it was a good trade ! Thanks so much. :) :)

Always glad to hear when people actually can learn something from my work, this means that i'm not writing in vain. Thanks

The Articles are excellent for me because I learn a lot, as with the blogs. Even if some writings are not always agreeable with one's own thoughts, they are good for purposes of reminding oneself of lessons learned and exposure to new ideas. It's never in vain, in my opinion. Here, I remember how little experience I have and how deeply I am engrossed in the detail, at present, so will give some time to forward planning, as a result. I appreciate that - since that is the direction, once the initial work is done. Thanks again. Much appreciated and well written. :) :)

Happy 4th of July!!!

Daytrader21 Posted 4 July  in #Trader's blog #Greece
Since it's weekend and I'm trying to relax and not thinking that much about current state of affair in the financial market I just want to take the time and say a HAPPY 4th of July!!! to my fellow Americans.
Even though I'm trying hard to stay away from the influx of informations coming out from Greece I'm not disconnected on what is happening over there. Currently I'm trying to write my article for this month and I'll be addressing this issues and what would be the implications in the FX market…

Risk Aversion Full Scale

Daytrader21 Posted 29 June  in #Trader's blog #EUR/JPY #GBP/JPY #Greece #Bonds #Risk Aversion #Assets Classes
As per my expectations we had quite an interesting FX opening you can read more about what I had to say over the weekends here: Greece Saga Final Act
This is what an ideal risk aversion scenario looks like when the safe haven currencies are in high demand and currencies like JPY, CHF and the US Dollar are the ultimate beneficiary on this environment. The magnitude of the gaps we saw especially with the yen pairs where something that we never saw at least not in the recent history. But not only t…

Greece Saga Final Act

Daytrader21 Posted 28 June  in #Trader's blog #Ecb #Volatility #Greece #Default #Referendum #Risk Aversion #Imf #Black Swan #Grexit
This time around the count down has started for Greece and they are really running out of time. Recent developments in the past 24 hours have been quite substantial and make no mistake about it Greece is going to default as IMF has send quite a strong message that they are not going to move the deadline for the debt repayment which is 30 Jun and the Greek referendum over paying/nopaying the debt is useless.

Greece Latest Headlines

Daytrader21 Posted 27 June  in #Trader's blog #EU #Ecb #Greece #Grexit #Yanis Varoufakis #Djissolbloem
The Greece saga continues and the negotiations between the two parties involved has once again hit a roadblock. I'm telling you this is a total mess and I think we're going to have a big surprise once the market opens Sunday evening. Judging by today's headlines it's obvious that they are moving backwards and as time goes by the changes of an agreement fall even further. I thought that at least over the weekend we can relax, but NO, this bureaucrats are in for pulling out a snow show.

Over the Weekend Exposure

Daytrader21 Posted 26 June  in #Trader's blog #Greece #Grexit #Bailout #Brussels
Today was pretty much a hectic day in the forex exchange market and mainly because of the ongoing negotiations between Greece and Brussels. There is no resolution between the two parties and us such this will carry over the weekend an very high level of risk and there is a high probability the markets will gap on Monday opening, and depending on the negotiation status the market can really gap either side.
Tomorrow is a key day as most likely at the end of the EU Summit we'll know where we stand…

EUR/USD Prolonged Range Trading

Daytrader21 Posted 23 June  in #Trader's blog #EUR/USD #Greece #Range #Psychological Number #Brussels
Despite the Greek drama and the ongoing negotiation between Brussels and Greece government, EUR/USD exchange rate have been very stable and we have been trading inside a very frustrating range without any clear direction. It seems the market is not willing to neither resume the bearish trend nor to break higher and have a deeper correction.
Welcome to the summer range trading conditions when usually volatility subside and trading chase away as traders and hedge fund managers are taking a pause d…

Grexit Saga Continues

Daytrader21 Posted 21 June  in #Trader's blog #Ecb #EUR/USD #Greece #Risk Aversion #Grexit #Bailout #Fx Volatility #Ela
Grexit or may just Greece default remain the most important trigger of FX volatility in the coming week. The ongoing negotiation between Brussels and Greece are just crazy and I wouldn't be surprised if they will extend again the deadline for the bailout which expire on 30 Jun. I'm not expecting anything new on the Monday's summit, and that should be the case if you take in consideration how things unfolded so far.
However all this uncertainty has failed to produce any meaningless moves in the F…

Greece Just Do it!!!

Daytrader21 Posted 16 June  in #Trader's blog #Greece #Grexit
I'm really tired of the ongoing negotiation between EU and Greece, as it seems this are going for an eternity. I dare you Greece, just do it and end it once and for all. Lets just celebrate either a Grexit, or no Grexit, whatever it may be but just lets end this mess.
This is for Greece: Shia LaBeouf - Just Do it
Best Regards,

Stix No one has any intention whatsoever to repay their debts so why would Greece do so?:)

I would think Standard of Living was a good enough reason. On the Global side, the effect to the World Economy is enormous, so that might be an incentive for the Leaders but for the man in the street, it should be just to have a comfortable day. I could be missing the point ? :) :)

As I see it, it appears the task is too daunting, so nothing is achieved. But if it becomes manageable, then there is room for motivation towards improving the economy of Greece. Kinda like asking a toddler to climb 100 stairs but if it only has 1, it might try. :) :)
