Eur/Usd...basis dailies...In terms of Trendline Analysis, the market has been trading the lower half of a Bullish Channel for the last week and a half. Yesterday's price action suggests (to me) that the market is prepared to move into the upper range of the channel. On my charts, the major Trendline Resistance line intersects the horizontal of the 1.36xx All-time High on Tuesday, March 10th. USD negative data tomorrow could easily supply the impetus for a very strong upmove to that intersection. All, as usual, imvho...GL/GT

Dallas GEP 21:04 GMT April 5, 2007 Reply   
Looks like aud/nzd low last 24 hours is 1.1309. Aussie is EITHER positioning up for a break of that 8210/15 level or will short back down to lower levels. eur/jpy longs have really held up eur/usd to this level. Asia coming up will have their say on the YEN pairs. Generally speaking carry trades appear to be weakening slightly.

* 05 Apr 07: 17:01GMT (NYC) - FX NOW! EUR/USD, USD/JPY flows - NFP rumour leaves FX unimpressed

Thin pre-holiday markets are usually a fertile ground for the inevitable NFP 'rumour', and this time it suggests a strong reading of +230k new jobs. Seems like more of a reaction in bonds than FX so far, probably explained by the fact that bonds were leaning in that direction anyway for most of the day. Needless to say this needs to be taken with a huge grain of salt. VS

This is from our live AFX news feed. For those who have not subscribed, it is extraordinary value (inexpensive + high quality) and you should consider it. For more information, send us an EMAIL

PARIS (AFX) - European Central Bank president Jean-Claude Trichet defended the central bank's role in job creation, arguing that "more than 12 mln jobs" have been created in the euro zone since the creation of the single currency in 1999.

Trichet made his comments in an interview on French news channel LCI.

While saying he will not "enter the campaign", his remarks were in response to repeated criticisms of the ECB's record by French presidential election candidates, including frontrunners Nicolas Sarkozy and Segolene Royal.

The candidates have notably attacked the ECB for focusing on inflation rather than growth, and for not trying to lower the exchange rate with the dollar.

"Those who think the European Central Bank acts against job creation are not backed up by the figures," Trichet said.

The ECB president added that the central bank's mandate was price stability, "a necessary condition for lasting growth and job creation".

I still feel 0.8 has to be reached again before any new multi year records on the aud.... Right now the bulls are a bit out of steam, but thin market conditions can do anything. Perhaps tomorrow we will see a reasonable move down, then we can head for the hills..

I also have nothing in my eyes that shows 0.84 (as of yet). The highest I think we could see is 8250.

King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has told Arab leaders that the U.S. occupation of Iraq is illegal and warned that unless Arab governments settle their differences, foreign powers like the United States will continue to dictate the region's politics.

The king's speech Wednesday, at the opening of the Arab League summit meeting here, underscored growing differences between Saudi Arabia and the Bush administration as the Saudis take on a greater leadership role in the Middle East, partly at U.S. urging.


On Wednesday, Abdullah called for an end to the international boycott of the new Palestinian government. The United States and Israel want the boycott continued.

And in trying to settle the tensions in Lebanon, the Saudis have been willing to negotiate with Iran and Hezbollah.

Last week, the Saudi king canceled his appearance next month at a White House dinner in his honor, The Washington Post reported Wednesday. The official reason given was a scheduling conflict, the paper said.

Abdullah has not publicly spoken so harshly about the U.S.-led military intervention in Iraq before, and his latest remarks suggest that his alliance with Washington may be less harmonious than administration officials have been hoping

2nd UPDATE: China Ups Pace Of Tightening With 3rd Ratio Hike
BEIJING (Dow Jones)--China said Thursday it will lift the reserve requirement ratio for banks by 50 basis points for the third time this year, raising the pace of tightening as the central bank adopts a more forward-looking approach to dealing with the country's excess liquidity.
The latest hike, which will take effect April 16 and raises the ratio for most commercial banks to 10.5%, comes after repeated comments from government officials about excessive liquidity levels and the central bank said it will make monetary policy more preemptive.

In a brief statement on its Web site, the People's Bank of China said it will "use various tools to strengthen management of liquidity in the banking system, maintain liquidity around suitable levels, and prevent overly rapid growth of credit." The PBOC added that it will maintain a prudent monetary policy. The decision follows the central bank's first-quarter monetary policy report, issued Monday, which said China should "further raise the preemptive nature...and effectiveness of monetary policy, and maintain price stability."

Economists said more tightening is likely, through more reserve ratio increases and possibly rate hikes, while PBOC officials have said they might also use other tools.

Central banks are caught on the horns of a dilemma:
1. They are witnessing a serious distortion in the market through the iundermining of riks through the carry-trade, knowing there is little they can do when,
2. They are lecturing China that the market should determine the value of the yuan.
As a group they will bury their heads in the sand in pursuit of 2 while number 1 worsens.

Flat and observe the mkt of gbp, eur, aud, nzd.

honestly, the usd weakness has some strange hidden risk.
For usd weakness theme, I often saw, in the past,
strong eur/gbp, weak eur/chf. weak aud/nzd......

BUT! Look at the crosses, they are not telling what I expect.

And the procrastinating feeling on eur, gbp, aud, cad, after reaching 1.33, 1.98, 0.82 and 1.15 spells the two words "BE CAREFUL"..

My anticipated scenario is: finally, it will be chf and yen turns to revenge but we need catatlyst. (probably a strong statement from G7) But as usual, mkt will be deaf towards them and challenge the CBs with their ammunition. Wait till the gun shot by CBs could make life easier.

China Picking Up Pace Of Tightening - ING

China is picking up the pace of tightening, may be moving to 2 reserve requirement ratio hikes per quarter, says ING economist Tim Condon after PBOC announced late today 3rd such increase this year; "I think people are still smarting a little bit from the (strong) loans growth numbers from the beginning of the year," he notes, adding he'd previously expected 1 reserve requirement ratio rise per quarter. Condon says run of reserve ratio rises limiting credit, money supply while interest rate hike last month limiting demand; "I think it will bear fruit," he adds, tipping moderation in activity, money, credit supply data in coming months.

BRUSSELS (AP)--The European Union's foreign policy chief and Iran's top negotiator resumed discussions on Tehran's nuclear enrichment program almost immediately after the announcement that fifteen U.K. sailors and marines would be released, an official said Thursday.

Although no breakthroughs were announced, the swift resumption of talks after the diplomatic crisis showed that the communication channels between the E.U.'s Javier Solana and Iran's nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani were still intact.

"We hope we can get back to the negotiating table," said an E.U. official.

U.K. manufacturing output marked its largest fall in more than a year in February on widespread declines across the sector, but in particular as production from transport equipment industries weakened, data released Thursday showed.

Figures released by the Office for National Statistics showed manufacturing output fell for a second consecutive month. It fell 0.6% from January and missed the average forecast of economists surveyed by Dow Jones Newswires, who had tipped a 0.3% gain. That was also the biggest decline since October 2005, the ONS said.

On the year, output rose 1.2% in February - much weaker than economists' expectations for a 2.2% rise.

However, the bank says this area may prove to be an important inflection point for the future, so in regards to AUD and its crosses these may be good levels to think about booking some profit. The bank says AUD/JPY and AUD/CAD are in the 5th waves now and the risks of being too greedy are mounting

mm, tx for the briefing. The ECB story may fall on deaf ears as usual and the BoE story called it right: "A knife-edge vote by The Times Monetary Policy Committee to recommend that interest rates stay on hold this month highlights deep City uncertainty over a Bank of England verdict on borrowing costs today that is seen by many as the closest of calls. The Times expert panel voted narrowly, by five to four, to call for the Bank to grant borrowers a continued reprieve from a new rate rise. Yet with two of the five Times experts who voted for unchanged rates leaning strongly towards backing an increase, the panel was on the brink of calling for dearer
money for the first time since November. The closeness of the Times MPC vote mirrors what economists believe will be an intense debate at the Bank this morning. Many analysts believe that, with base rates still expected to rise in May if not this month, the Bank’s MPC may see little merit in delay. That argument was echoed by the hawks on The Times MPC,
who said that, with ample evidence of a buoyant economy, and persistent inflation worries, there was no case for holding off. The hawks also noted that recent market turbulence had largely passed.

All 15 British military personnel held by Iran for 2 weeks have left Tehran on a flight to London - Iran Radio - Reuters.

Dallas Fed Richard Fisher says Fed statement symmetrical, inflation is running at too high a rate now. Hopeful inflation will moderate, but Fed must remain vigilant.

IMF, in semi-annual World Economic Outlook says U.S. economic slowdown is still being driven largely by a cooling housing market, but any spillover into the rest of the world should be limited as European economies are strengthening. However, if U.S. housing market downturn spreads to consumer spending and business investment, then larger cross-border repercussions could be expected.

IMF says that timely monetary policy responses, with flexible FX rates will help cushion any spillover - Report due for release April 11-Reuters.

Japan Government has appointed Hidetoshi Kamezaki, Seiji Nakamura as BoJ board members to succeed Toshikatsu Fukuma and Hidehiko Haru. Both new members will hold news conference on April 11, 0600GMT, after the 2-day BoJ board meeting on Monday-Tuesday.

FT: The business lobby has warned ECB not to increase eurozone interest rates much further, saying exchange rates could enter a "more dangerous situation". Ernest-Antoine Seillière, president of Business Europe, the Brussels-based lobby, said: "Above 4% . . . we are entering another world. There is something there which is very symbolic." He adds a "convergence of factors" was creating concern about the future value of the euro. "The USD weakness, yen policy and CNY policy put the euro in a position where there could be a question.

AUD/JPY rallied on back of AUD stoploss, options buying, hitting almost 10-yr highs of 97.40-50, since May 1997 May 7 highs of 98.01, before coming under pressure on back of good selling from Japanese brokerage/ securities houses - could be profit-taking, given continual talks of good Japanese cross/JPY demand on dips, toushin, for overseas investment trust funds.

short usdjpy was the ideal trade.this short audusd might work too as audjpy will drop sharply and pull audusd lower.i have no idea where your short audusd entry is so can't be specific but audusd may get down to 0.8120/40 if tthe audjpy pressure really kicks in hard.

Japan government today appoints Hidetoshi Kamezaki and Seiji Nakamura as BOJ policy board members, BOJ says. Kamezaki, 64, former vice president of Mitsubishi Corp. (8058.TO), while Nakamura, also 64, former president of MOL Ferry, which wholly-owned unit of shipping company Mitsui O.S.K. Lines Ltd. (9104.TO). They replace Hidehiko Haru and Toshikatsu Fukuma, whose 5-year terms ended yesterday. It's unclear at this point if new members to be hawkish or dovish in their policy decisions; so, markets to keep close tabs on their comments about economy, monetary policy at their briefing April 11, following 2-day policy decision meeting starting Monday

CABA if you remember at that time all pairs were showing either a neutral or slightly negative bias compared to the dollar. Euro was shorting, GBP was shorting, NZD was shorting etc. The only pair that WAS longing against the dollar and SIGNIFICANTLY was the KIWI and this has basically been happening for the last 2-3 weeks unabated. The pair that was also significantly SHORTING was AUD/NZD. The range from high to low was approximately 100 pips. As you are well aware none of these pairs operate in a vaccuum for any significant amout of time so it is my assertion that KIWI was driven up against the dollar by several large players that SOLD AUD/NZD to accomplish it. There is MORE volatility in that pair of course because there are much fewer transactions than the majors and major crosses so in effect it would tale comparatively LESS money to do so. Can this be PROVEN...of course not but it is in my view a very logical explanation for the KIWI ;s movement.

MD, short term 8210/15 should hold UNLESS some very large players want to push thru it which is possible since AUSSIE apparently is oblivious to TECHNICALS.

AUD/NZD pair is over bought currently but then again so is AUD/USD. Look for a retouch of 1.1300 in the next 24 hours or so on AUD/NZD

Carry Trades Powering Up But Mind The Rush - UBS

Judging by sharp bounce in AUD after RBA's on-hold decision yesterday, carry trades are back in full force, says UBS; "however, those worried there may be more unpleasant surprises out there similar to the sub-prime market, will be mindful in rushing headlong back into the carry trade. A similar no-change decision by the BoE would leave the recent run-up in high yielding currencies with very little backing, and hence vulnerable to an unwind in positioning." Bank expects BoE to stand pat, bringing tightening cycle to end. Adds USD is "neutral with respect to the carry trade, and at times exhibits some safe-haven properties"; outlook for USD will remain mixed though until there's more clarity on Fed outlook.
