AUD/EUR Should Easily Trade 0.6430 - Trader
Reply
AUD/EUR last 0.6381, should easily trade back to 2005 and 2007 highs of around 0.6430, while demand is growing for AUD/USD, says Sydney-based trader at global investment bank. Expects AUD/JPY to also gain. "The new Japanese finance minister said yesterday he welcomed the fact that the Yen is weakening, so his comment will only add support for the AUD/JPY to move higher." Pair last 84.865.

I'm still focused on EURUSD 1.4400 and I don't feel this line was not established decisively on the close. So now we remain in no-man's land. We still need to establish above or below to set the USD bear or bull scenario. Also watching USDJPY and EURJPY. I wonder how much EUR demand has been coming out of the JPY.
In other words, I am still wondering if EUR demand is sustainable.

DJ : AUD Should Find Support On Any Dips - BNZ
Reply
AUD/USD should find good support on any dips, possibly testing 0.9240 as USD weakness should linger while AUD/JPY should also break 2009 high of 89.40, says Bank of New Zealand FX strategist Danica Hampton. AUD/USD last 0.9203, AUD/JPY last 85.00. "The JPY is going to remain weak generally." Doesn't expect much impact from new Japanese finance minister. Says Australian retail sales at 0030 GMT will be also closely watched.
AUD may get some direction from retail sales due 0030 GMT, but it's likely market won't get too excited ahead of all-important U.S. jobs numbers Friday, says RBC Capital Markets FX strategist Matthew Strauss. Median consensus is for November sales to rise 0.3% on month.

DJ MARKET TALK: FOMC Signals That Easy Money Will Keep Flowing
Reply
The FOMC minutes are supportive of the risk-taking environment, said Tim Evans, at Lind-Waldock in Chicago. "Based on the comments coming out of the minutes, it's clear that easy money is going to continue to flow," he said. Fed officials acknowledged the economy is gaining momentum, but judged the recovery as not being strong enough to change their view that interest rates must stay at a record low. FOMC minutes on discussions over the state of the economy reflect the tentatively more optimistic/somewhat guarded statement that arose after the December meeting. Of greater importance, perhaps, "a few" members said more asset purchases beyond the $175 billion agencies and $1.25 trillion mortgages might be needed, given the amount of slack in the economy.

trading styles
Reply
I have noticed a variety of trading styles and convictions the past couple days. Just to mention a couple of the quality traders with good real trade records but very different styles and my own. First, a common thread is they are usually outside the box of conventional ramblings, and second they are steadfast in their styles and know "who" they are in the market. Examples:
UK JB.........he'll work into a position with long term conviction and doesn't flip out on his outcome. From experience, it appears he knows over time whether long or short the market has a greater % percentage chance of revisiting an area of interest, and has the firepower to build if an original postion works against him, exactly opposite of the "books" say. But, some of the best traders in the world trade this way.
Then there is FM, who fades market moves with specific targets, and tighter stop losers. We all are aware of his methodology and success. It's based on shorter time frames with specific targets. Add to that he is capable of managing multiple positions at a time, thus increasing his changes of greater reward, and sometimes a built in hedge buy such a methodology.
As for myself, my long suit in trading position wise, is to closely follow established correlations, and attempt to get into a trend. Knowing that trends are much less the case than noisy markets, If I open a trade, my story is to follow that adage of let your profits run, and for me often to aid to winners, depending on the greater market picture, and cut my losses short. I also focus on multiple markets, e.g. long gold and oil, which all on GVI side I've held for a long time.........in the case of gold, for 10 years consective, rolling forward from deferred's. As is also well known, I'm a major dollar bear, but know recently we've been in counter trend bounce, thus trading lighter and shorter term. But for sure, every year my best trades by far is the ones held the longest. Now I have the HFT trading systems approach, as another vehicle, which has taken the hardware requirements to a whole different level.
The main point in this whole game is money management first, exits second, and entries are the easiest part of the game imho. Knowing who you are in the battlefield is also key. A common denominator amongest the winners is they are completely aware of their presence, self, and strategy application to the market. Flip-flopping around, attempting to find the perverbial Golden Grail, and with that catching the analysis paralysis desease........is at the very least a reason most traders blow out.

Iceland
Reply
Iceland plans to hold a referendum on 20 February on legislation allowing the total repayment to Great Britain and the Netherlands of savings lost when its Icesave bank failed.
If the referendum votes the legislation down, a law adopted in August will remain on the statute book. This will see a slower rate of repayment to the two countries and will allow Iceland to renege on part of the debt.
Last week, Iceland's MPs voted for the full repayment of nearly four billion euros lost by British and Dutch savers with the failed bank. However, President Olafur Grimsson refused to sign the bill into law, forcing a referendum.
Britain, the Netherlands and the International Monetary Fund are pushing Iceland to repay the debt in full as quickly as possible.

be careful how u read my post's as i am not a day trader. I look for positions to go against me so i can average into a price. stg/yen yesterday was a classic case it came off 100 points to rally 200. I do not leave stop/loss orders only call levels. So everything you are taught not to do i probably do. IE i leave no stops and i average losing trades , but as we all know it is all about risk management

Purchasing Managers Index- Service
Most major economies have purchasing managers indices (PMI) released monthly. They are compiled by various organizations. Some focus on the manufacturing sector while others measure the service sector. They are a very current measure of the economic health of the manufacturing or services sector. The PMI indies are usually based on five major indicators: new orders, inventory levels, production, supplier deliveries and the employment environment.
A PMI of greater than 50 represents expansion, compared to the previous month. A reading under 50 represents a contraction, while a reading at 50 indicates no change.
We find the PMI indices to be useful predictors of future economic activity.

Callum Henderson, analyst with Standard Chartered, says report runs counter to market belief that EU would eventually step in to help Greece, and may be a stern warning that patience for Greece's authorities is running out. "Budget figures (in Greece) are essentially false... The market is concerned." Henderson reckons EUR/USD likely to remain choppy in coming days, as short-term direction is unclear

Entry: Target: Stop:
GBP/USD : One have to be very cautious if you are taking a long position since the market fails to have a good response when it tests the weekly cycle normal limit at 1.5949. The weekly cycle normal limits are positioning at 1.5640 - 1.5718 - 1.5949. A negative signal will be hoisted in my system when the market fails to close above the weekly cycle normal lower limits at the end of the week in the New York session. Long term references for position traders are freely available in my website.

'Red hot' property sector points to rate rise
Reply
The RBA is not scheduled to meet in January, and the board’s next scheduled meeting is on February 2.Mr Carr said the November building approvals data would add to the case for the RBA to lift rates again in February. ‘‘I think the RBA will be looking at this number and they’ll certainly be looking at the retail sales number tomorrow and inflation numbers on January 27,’’ he said. ‘‘A February rate hike is still live.’’
