I have been waiting and waiting and waiting to buy euros on small correction down after FOMC decision. first thought market will correct next day. then hoped after weekly options expired then euro definatelly shoul fly. still not.'
'couldnt wait anymore. bought today at 1,3478-. stop sell if daily euro close under 1,3430. I think euro will start to move higher after monday options cut off. talks about huge barrier at 1,3600 which still contains.
personally think that absolut minimum target up is 1,3690/3700. will see it next I reckon.

The USFed, the USGovt, and the Big US Banks urgently needed to stop the move in the 10-year bond yield (aka TNX). They needed to prevent a move above 3.0% on the USTreasury yield. They needed to avoid a calamity with both Interest Rate Swaps and USTBond carry trade reversals. They needed to avoid a trigger of sell stops. They needed to prevent the rest of the world selling off USTBonds within their reserves management systems, the foundation of their national banking systems.
So the USFed and Big US Banks called upon themselves to place artificial high bids on USTBonds sold among themselves in a circle jerk of Flash Trading. They pushed the TNX below 2.9% quickly in the corrupt process. USFed Chairman Bernanke then backed off the Taper Talk threat, and the USTBonds rushed in a pathetic rally. The Jackass forecasted his retreat exactly, a bluff after a failed trial balloon.

Here is a new COT chart I have been testing out for myself. I have muted the colors on the long and short bars so the spot and 20-day moving average.
What I have noticed on this chart (and others) is how speculative positions are governed by the cross-over of the spot rate vs. the 20-day moving average. The two are a good gauge of dealer sentiment.
In this instance watch how the spot vs 20-day average is reflected to JPY shorts (pink bar). Currently we are moving into neutrality and that is reflected in the charts. Im looking for when and it which direction we will break out.

JP, you can also see it as 1.3450-1.3550, 1.3450 being the former breakout level and most important and 1.35 the focus as long as it stays within this range, Quarter end flows will likely dominate more than fresh positioning.

John.... good grief. At the moment they're buying mortgages, the next step would be straight out buy houses.
Jay, point taken but it's a bit hard to trade this market. Every central bank out there DOES NOT want to see their currency become flavour of the month and appreciate. Overall it still looks like the USD is under pressure (though the Japanese clearly want the USD/JPY to stay around current levels, not fall so that's a bit of a no go). The U.S. does not want the USD in freefall because the U.S. need foreign capital inflows to continue.
No-one knows what is going on with FED policy. Fiscal policy is in an even worse state. U.S. bonds have seen a sell off and since recovered somewhat... it's not exactly a clear outlook at the moment. What's your best trade idea?

John.... until the FED backs out and let's demand and supply for capital find it's true interest rate the economy is going to be struggling. Savers want a higher return, without it you just won't get much saving, just massive amounts of unwise risk taking with no longer term economic benefit. Borrowers will borrow, even at a higher rate, if the economy is seen to be on a firm footing and in the same way banks will lend. But first we need clarity. We need less talk from the FED. In fact no talk and no more QE would be a good. And a clear announcement about how they are going to get there. Less bowing down to the god of low interest rates. We've all lived in a world where rates were higher with no harm done.

JP I'm kinda over the idea that low short term and bond yields make things happen in the economy. It's almost a religious idea these days. No-one questions it. Fact is it's killing savers, forcing people into higher risk investments (with likely ugly consequences down the road) and hasn't see any real increase in credit growth (unsurprising really given that lending criteria has been tightened across the board).
Who benefits? Well the government gets to see its existing debt increase more slowly (since the cost of refinancing is lower than it ordinarily would be) and the banks who get to ride the yield curve (borrow short, lend long). But the economy? Not happening...

A downgrade of Italy is expected this Friday, after markets have closed. That will dovetail nicely with the 'crisis' which is supposedly going on in Italian politics. Berlusconi has been under investigation for decades, his recent conviction, with all the political consequences that follow, was well timed and will certainly be helpful in preventing further massive EUR/USD upside. I'm not sure, though, if at this stage the USD and U.S. financial markets will benefit. U.S. economic policy, both fiscal and monetary, not to mention U.S. foreign policy (war mongering basically) doesn't help to make a positive case for the USD and U.S. financial markets. The U.S. remains dependent on ongoing foreign capital inflows to fund its current account deficit (and as a consequence to fund its Federal government deficit). That is not a unique weakness but it is a very big one.

Markets always give you one last chance // Equities have posted five days of indigestion since last week's Sugar Rush -- Fixed income probably next as 10 yr sees its low between now and Monday as quarterly profit taking takes hold after Ben's reprieve -- and if yields rise can pressure on currencies be far behind?? First test EUR -- 1.3454 // JPY -- 99.13
Ben may have brought on Phase Two of "tightening financial conditions" - the Fed had been suggesting a mid 2014 end to all liquidity injections - if that is still the target the non-taper decision has compressed the 85 bio into a possible 6 mth time period -- one wag noted risk/reward in bond market now was like running onto the freeway to pick up pennies
Will any ratings agency dare threaten downgrades? Not likely anybody wants to criticize Congress or the Administration given the S&P pout about "political" prosecution (probably right but not a defense) or the current Gang Tackling of JPM Chase
Watch the Congressional negotiations closely for signs that the politicization of the Fed (nothing really new here) will reach an extreme level - the Senate Dems if they don't split can approve anybody BUT Drum Banging by the Tea Party types or Backroom deals for debt ceiling that require an outsider for the Fed can make the nomination process even more distasteful

Italian president cancels participation to event due to 'disturbing political event'
The euro and the Italian market fell today following the news that Italian President Giorgio Napolitano unexpectedly canceled his appearance at a conference in Rome due to the the fact that he needed to give his full attention to a �sudden political development that is institutionally disturbing.�
Deputies from Silvio Berlusconi's PDL party warned late Wednesday that they could step down if their leader was expelled from the Italian Senate, following his tax fraud conviction. A special Senate committee will decide whether to revoke his mandate during a vote scheduled for October 4.
Napolitano's announcement today shook the markets as it might mean that the stability of Enrico Letta's government is being undermined.

EUR/USD regains 1.3500
FXs.com (Edinburgh) -After bottoming near 1.3480, the EUR/USD managed to pick up pace and retake the 1.3500 handle on Thursday.
EUR/USD range-bound
The pair seems to get back its composure after a bout of weakness stemming from the Italian political arena dragged the euro to test intraday lows in the boundaries of 1.3480 against the greenback. Buyers are back now, lifting the pair beyond 1.3500 ahead of US employment and housing data. Following the last Fed fiasco, Strategist Jane Foley at Rabobank commented, �That said, on the back of Fed tapering expectations we expect that by year-end the euro will have retreated back towards EUR/USD 1.3200. However, we don�t expect the euro to give up ground willingly to the USD and we maintain a 6 mth forecast of 1.300�.
EUR/USD key levels
At the moment the pair is losing 0.14% at 1.3507 with the immediate support at 1.3459 (23.6% of 1.3104-.13569) followed by 1.3453 (high Au.20) and then 1.3399 (high Aug.28). On the upside, a surpass of 1.3555 (high Sep.23) would expose 1.3569 (high Sep.19) and finally 1.3598 (high Feb.5).
USD/JPY reverses daily gains
The USD/JPY reversed early gains during the European session and dropped back below the 99.00 mark, weighed by Fed's Lacker comments and Japan pension panel.
Lacker and pension panel put USD/JPY under pressure
The USD/JPY had rallied to a high of 99.10 during the Asian session amid renewed talk of a corporate tax cut and speculation about Japan's public pension reforms.
A panel charged with proposing a revamp of Japan's Government Pension Investment Fund (GPIF) - the world�s largest public pension fund - met Thursday, but the statement offered little detail and lacked of any direct suggestion on yen diversification, putting USD/JPY back under pressure.
The USD/JPY selloff was fueled by FOMC Lacker comments, saying US growth unlikely to accelerate anytime soon and that it is difficult to taper in October 'without losing face'.
USD/JPY technical levels
USD/JPY pulled back from above 99.00 back to the 98.50 zone within the last minutes, where it is trading at time of writing, still 0.1% above its opening price. Immediate supports are now seen at 98.25 (daily low), 98.00 (psychological level) and 97.75 (Sep 18 low), while resistances could be found at 99.10 (daily high) and 99.65 (Sep 20 high).

RTRS-Euro zone private loan contraction accelerates in August
FRANKFURT, Sept 26 (Reuters) - Loans to households and
companies in the euro zone contracted further in August, showing
that the currency bloc's recovery is still fragile.
The European Central Bank has highlighted limited access to
funding for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) as one of
its main concerns in the past and has taken several measures to
revive lending to those companies that form the backbone of the
euro zone economy.
But despite its efforts, the central bank's record low
interest rates are still not feeding through evenly to the real
economy in all corners of the currency bloc, keeping pressure on
the ECB to keep rates low for a prolonged period.
Data released on Thursday showed loans to the private sector
shrank by 2.0 percent from the same month a year ago, in line
with a Reuters poll of economists, which gave a mid-range
reading of -2.0 percent.
Euro zone M3 money supply - a more general measure of cash
in the economy - grew at an annual pace of 2.3 percent in
August, picking up slightly from 2.2 percent in July and above
the consensus forecast of 2.2 percent in a Reuters poll of
analysts.

Sept 26 : Dollar weakens broadly on U.S. government shutdown fears

Market Review - 25/09/2013 22:19GMT
Dollar weakens broadly on U.S. government shutdown fears
The dollar weakened across the board on Wednesday, weighed down by worries about gridlock in Washington on the U.S. budget that could lead to a government shutdown next week.
Although the single currency briefly retreated to 1.3462 in Asian morning, euro rallied to 1.3520 in European morning on dollar's weakness. Later, despite a pullback to 1.3494 in New York morning, renewed buying lifted the pair and price rose to session high at 1.3538 at New York midday before easing.
The British pound dropped to session low at 1.5980 in Asian morning, however, dollar's broad-based weakness lifted the pair and cable rallied in European morning, helped by the release of better-than-expected U.K. CBI distributive trades and eventually hit an intra-day high at 1.6088 in New York session before trading sideways. U.K. CBI distributive trades (Sep) came in at 34, better than the forecast of 23.
Versus the Japanese yen, the greenback remained under pressure in Asia and weakened to an intra-day low at 98.38 in European morning on concerns over U.S. budget negotiations. Dollar later pared intra-day losses on renewed cross-selling of yen and staged a recovery to 98.82 in New York morning before falling near New York close.
In other news, ECB's Asmussen said 'ESM treaty will have to change before it can be used for bank recapitalization.'
On the data front, U.S. durable goods (Aug) came in at 0.1%, versus the forecast of 0.0%, previous reading was revised to -8.1%; U.S. durable goods ex. transport (Aug) came in at -0.1%, versus the forecast of 1.0%, previous reading was revised to -0.5%; U.S. ex. defense (Aug) came in at 0.5%, previous reading was revised to -7.5%. In a separate report, U.S. new home sales (Aug) came in at 0.421M and 7.9% m/m, better than the forecasts of 0.420M and 6.6% m/m respectively.
Data to be released on Thursday:
France consumer confidence, U.K. current account, GDP, U.S. GDP, PCE core, jobless claims, personal consumption and pending home sales.
