Forex - Westpac Morning Report

msa nsm 20:31 GMT May 24, 2012
here's maybe the fundaments to back the signal

"Many central banks around the world continued to add to their gold holdings in recent months, according to data from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

The largest increase was by the Philippines, which raised its gold holdings by 1.03 million ounces to 6.245 million in March. This represented the biggest reported increase in a nation’s gold reserves since Mexico purchased 2.5 million ounces in March of 2011. Furthermore, it marked the seventh consecutive month in which The Philippines added to its gold reserves.

Mexico was the second largest buyer of gold in April, as it purchased 94,000 ounces to bring its total to 4.04 million.

Other substantial purchases were made by Turkey, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, and Sri Lanka.

Notably, the countries that have added the most to their gold reserves in recent years have relatively small economies and have not engaged in unprecedented quantitative easing measures. This suggests that these nations are seeking to protect themselves from the rampant currency debasement being implemented by the likes of the Federal Reserve, European Central Bank (ECB), Bank of England, and Bank of Japan.

The IMF data should “gather much attention from market participants…[and] should somewhat help sentiment for gold,” according to UBS precious metals analyst Edel Tully.

Last year, central banks added 456.4 tons of gold – the largest amount in nearly 50 years – and are expected to buy as much as 400 tons in 2012, according to the World Gold Council."

"CME NEWS

Surprisingly gold clawed out some modest gains overnight and it managed that action in the face of weak data from several different regions. In fact, the UK data confirmed a return to recession, Chinese manufacturing data posted a 7 straight month of contraction and the Euro zone also chimed in with soft May Manufacturing PMI readings.

With a weaker Euro mixed to lower equities and gains in metals prices, one could suggest that the markets might be anticipating some type of coordinated easing action. It would seem like the Chinese are already reacting with an announcement overnight of 66 billion yuan allotment for public rental housing construction projects. However, ideas that gold is finding some lift from easing hopes could be put to the test this morning in the wake of a series of critical US scheduled data points, especially since that data is expected to come in on the weak side of unchanged. It is also possible that gold is finding some footing off a growing view that a Greek exit from the Euro zone could be an orderly event. In fact, the Fed's Bullard suggested last night that an orderly Greek exit was possible. Some traders expect to see some increased volatility in gold prices today due to option settlement, while others think that the primary driving force for prices will continue to be the Greece situation.

Chinese shares were under pressure again overnight with more evidence of an extending slowing pattern in Chinese manufacturing seen in the headlines. European equity markets were also showing renewed weakness early this morning in the wake of softer data and that has increased uncertainty and anxiety in that region. However, the European stocks did manage a recovery and that seemed to suggest that some easing effort might be forth coming from the ECB. There also seems to be a growing sense in the markets that a Greek exit from the Euro zone might not be a total disaster, but seeing a distinct softening of the Euro zone economy probably keeps a moderate amount of concern in place. The US report slate today is somewhat active with Durable goods and claims likely to give the trade a minor view on the direction of the US economy. Initial expectations call for a minor dip in durable goods and virtually no change in the weekly claims data."

  • Key Items: JP- CPI. US- University of Michigan Survey,

  • The EURUSD remains in a major downtrend, although Thursday saw a sharp correction in an oversold market. 

  • The trigger for the correction Thursday was rumors about possible action by the Swiss to support the EUR vs. the CHF.

  • E-Z flash PMI data Thursday were weaker than expected and reinforced concerns about a slowing European economy. German IFO data were disappointing as well.

  • The flash Chinese HSBC PMI was also disappointing. These private data have been diverging from the official report.

  • The 10-yr bund is 1.39%, +1 bp. The key EURUSD 20-day average is 1.2954.The EURUSD is mixed to lower. Key European bourses ended mostly higher. The U.S. 10-yr is 1.76%, +4 bp. 

  • Key Asian bourses closed mixed to lower. The USDJPY is steady The 10-yr JGB was 0.87%, 0 bp. The key USDJPY 20-day average is 79.91. EURJPY 20-day average is 103.53. EURJPY is weaker.

Wonder how Cash stox will handle tomorrow, low volume early departures for the 3 Day Weekend. Oh yeh, forgot HFT/Algos don't have to drive out to the Hamptons, they never leave the NJ warehouse.

Speaking of:
The Financial Times reports, the Oslo Stock Exchange will issue punitive changes to traders if they send too many orders into the exchange that do not result in deals being done.

This first-of-its-kind crackdown on 'Quote Stuffing' comes after the exchange has seen a surge in the number of orders flooding its systems and while the bourse does not quite go so far as to say HFT is "in itself necessarily negative for the market", it says the placement and cancellation frequency of trades has reduced the efficiency of its market.

au contraire !

an edict - such as a bank holiday - (not talking about some nice holiday in the Greek sunshine) where the plebs get frozen out of their remaining assets and which are further stripped of value (for all sorts reasons) by a caretaker type govt is probably what is being planned by the type of European princes that I know.

houston st 11:32 GMT May 24, 2012



crude intraday chart...based on last nite's close I was expecting us to target $89.01 today...that level is still valid but the longer price stays above the 50% balance point ($90.44), the less likely that will happen...use the normal guidedogs for intraday bias (brent/euro/refined products).

houston st 11:32 GMT May 24, 2012



EUR/USD intraday chart...price has stalled within the intraday lower pivot zone support and has been rotating back towards the 50% balance point (1.2603), albeit w/ some diminished momentum for now...short of a headline or other catalyst we may continue to rotate within the bottom half of today's range...1.2511 LOD is close enough to my weekly target to consider the weekly move complete, fwiw...a move above 1.2603 w/ authority puts the upper pivot zone resistance back in play for Thursday.

houston st 11:31 GMT May 24, 2012



EUR/USD daily chart...the overnight low was 1.2515 - close enough for my tastes here to the weekly target of 1.2504, so unless we get another leg down I'm considering the weekly target met...price needs to start rotating back above the weekly lower pivot zone here (1.2612) over the next couple of days, otherwise we may continue to some additional weakness...a close this Friday below 1.2504 sets us up for another potential chase lower into next week.

krishna- It is unfair for you to ask someone else to trade your position. This puts a resposibility on someone else for your decision. I am encouraged that you are asking now while your loss is rlatively small in pip terms.

In general, you should know in pip terms and in $ how much you are willing to risk when you get into a trade.

There is an old trading adage "if in doubt, get out" that might be useful. My only advice is just don't take a small loss and turn it into a large one.

  • Key Items: US- Durable Goods, Weekly Jobs, Nat Gas, 7yr.

  • This has turner from essentially a EURUSD range market  into a liquidating one. Trading strategies thus have to be adjusted accordingly. Trading EURUSD traditionally has been difficult. 

  • E-Z flash PMI data today were weaker than expected and reinforced concerns about a slowing economy. German IFO data were disappointing as well. Tuesday was a report that former  Greek PM Papademos said preparations for a Greek EUR exit are underway.

  • The flash Chinese HSBC PMI was also disappointing. Private data have diverged from the official report.

  • The 10-yr bund is 1.36%, -2 bp. The key EURUSD 20-day average is 1.2954.The EURUSD is mixed to lower. Key European bourses are mixed to lower. The U.S. 10-yr is 1.72%, 0 bp. 

  • Key Asian bourses closed mixed to lower. The USDJPY is steady The 10-yr JGB was 0.87%, 0 bp. The key USDJPY 20-day average is 79.91. EURJPY 20-day average is 103.53. EURJPY is weaker.

Your thoughts, comments questions, additions, etc, needed and greatly appreciated!

A serious question: I can more or less build a reasonable image of Mkt movements based on what has happened and chart structures..... I invariably get to identify turning points and or pull backs.

While this certainly does have it's merits, it still lacks precision and while a turning point may have been identified even from several hours in advance, it is very difficult to gauge what the likely strength of the pull back might be.

I have a rough guide which gives some vague indication, but still, it lacks precision.

I would like to hear from anyone interested to co-operate in the further development of this method, either by programming, or funding the programming or both.

An ability to create a heavily re-worked combination of existing MT4 indicators would be an advantage...

If interested please ask John +/- Jay for my email.

Off to the Costa del Minehead soon for a few days ! Pip pip !
