plan to buy euros today at 1,2480-85 with stops at 1,2435 if there is possibility.
otherwise expext range 1,2510-1,2610. max highs near 1,2640 if going wild.
weekly close over 1,2500would be positive sign for euro correction up to 1,3000.
move under 1,2440 turns picture extremely ugly with immidiate downside target 1,2250 during this month and 1,18sh next

This daily chart puts the price action in perspective
Since 1.25 first traded wide range has been 1.2887-1.2358
Past 9 days have essentially been in a 1.24-1.26 range
Trendlines have narrowed the range to 1.2447-1.2610
1.2538 = 20 day mva
1.2550 sets the tone (currently a magnet) while within 1.25-1.26
Only above 1.2600-10 would suggest a greater risk of a retracement.

sf - I agree. The lack of follow through has been disappointing. We'll have to see how the Nikkei does on the back of this. Still we may have come into a new era. Sell the rally as opposed to buy the dip. USD/JPY down 1 big figure from the high and no new reasons to buy. The Japanese elections are nearly a month away (though no official date yet). Nothing else biggish on the horizon. I think Kuroda is done. No new tax changes, so all quiet and the market is still way long.

JP, I am using the 4 hour chart where the trendline is currently at 1.2591, yesterday's high 1.2600 and the 200 period mva at 1.2603 (last time above it was on Oct 29).
1.2538 = 20 day mva, which reflects the current consolidation that has tried but so far failed to turn into a retracement.
As I noted this week, EURUSD 1.2500 first traded on Oct 3 and after over a month in a half has not been able to establish below despite a low set at 1.2358.
The hope trade is for seasonal USD weakness to take over and setup a better level to go short but trading based on hope is always a long shot.

JIT - with the cover of the '2% inflation target' Japan has devalued the USD/JPY nearly 50% - from 80 to the USD/JPY to today at 118 (119 this morning). No concern has been expressed by the USA about this manoeuvre and some pundits are encouraging the ECB to follow suit. A 50% devaluation and no mention of currency manipulation? In an era where inflation is "anything the statistics departments say it is".... an inflation target makes no sense. But I'm still trying to figure out what these Central Banks are gunning for.
They have currency targets. That's for sure. Originally Japan cited 100 - 110. We are way past that. Euro? What's the target there?

Are Forex Broker Bonuses Achievable or a Sucker Bet?
easy answer to that Jay, if you limit making money to collecting bonuses then better to go to the bookies and put a tenner on a horse.
if you want to trade for a living for you its not about percentage return or beating an industry index. its about the bottom line. how many dollars you can make.
buckets are fine, they really do have their uses (just make sure you get one that pays out and over drink regularly) but anyone wanting to trade for a living must avoid them as far as primary/secondary accounts are concerned. you should be looking at a commission based broker offering a spread of 0.3/0.5 during liquid hours with a 5/6/7 dollar commission per round turn on a 100k.

nikkei and yen stopped holding hands a couple of days ago but this mornings sell off in the nikkei kicked off selling in the usdjpy. a currency keeps going and going until it reaches a support or resistance it cant break and then pulls back. you take profits and ask questions later. the strongest trend can change every single second of the day.
dont think the barriers at 119 were anything special. it was more overbought at 119 than 117 and thats probably a big factor why the bears managed to win their first fight for a while as markets can be overbought for a while but dont move in a straight line for long. added to the fact that we can expect jawboning c. 120. you have to remember that moves of these speeds dont allow corporates to hedge properly, thats why people start commenting. little things, worries, start to build up the higher you go. thats why im looking at just 120/12150 initially and will reassess once up there.
61.8 of 11740 leg at 11801. normally these give a bounce even if small. but a move lower and it will cascade as i think stops are going to be under 11795. if you bought break of 11795 yest, then you pulled your stopped higher to c. breakeven on the 11850 break. now 119 didnt get done so stops still likely to be at entry. yup these so called fast acting specs move quite slow.

If we have a stock market correction FIRST U.S. Treasuries will rally - yields will fall - after the correction and provided we don't get a huge bounce (how many bounces can you get?) then we may have a sell off in Treasuries but only if the USD comes under significant selling pressure.
Right now all the pin heads are talking about this imaginary DEFLATION and how clever and brave the Japanese are. Ho. Ho.

John what if China devalues? What then?
What gets me is the Japanese have devalued the Yen (massively), actually repatriated funds (while telling everyone they were about to start sending money overseas), boosted exports (at the expense of their Asian neighbours) and actually managed to be PRAISED by other countries for their actions. Is this the greatest scam, or what?
Everyone has front run these Japanese Pension funds (who so far have not turned up buying on foreign markets) and pushed the USD/JPY up. Japan gets an export boost and gets to repatriate funds (see recent TIC data) at a fabulous exchange rate. I think this manoeuvre makes the rest of us look like the greatest bunch of plonkers.
Meanwhile the China slowdown continues, impacting the Aussie. But seriously the fact that China has export competition in NO WAY impacts the Euro. As far as the Euro is concerned any slowdown in a country like China which is a huge net exporter to the world - thus extracting GDP from everyone else - is no concern at all.

You can see people have the mindset to buy $yen at every chance
but these xxx/jpy can chew you up and spit you out - if you overbuy them too much.
it really is going to boil down to what NYK does with these Stock Markets... and whether those re-align or not with $Yen.

euro cable
Reply
now pmis out of way planning long at bottom end of that trade with stop under the imp past low of 39.
cable. uk sales up soon. brc shop and sale surveys dont suggest a big downside surprise. warmer weather may have held off winter clothing sales but falling prices at pump should allow other areas to make up the fall. cable failed twice yest at key fib of 15721 so on a beat you dont want to chase it unless it breaks the fib and even then with a tight stop for 15770/80. i am planning sales at 15770-158 if seen this week for a return to sub 157.

Trade data released overnight confirmed that Japan is eating Asia's lunch post Kuroda.
The China slowdown continues (surprise NOT), the iron ore slump accelerates and Aussie takes another hit. We have a full on currency based trade war taking place in Asia and the ramifications are likely to be ugly. Does China devalue next?
China Flash PMI
Interesting about the Nikkei. High was on the 14th of this month while other markets continued the celebration (of what?) of beggar-thy-neighbour currency devaluations? I forgot Japan was supposed to send all this money overseas. Yeah right.

seems short term range
28/33 - 65/66 .. till this Nikkei Situation is resolved.
if that support broke i'd agree we would at least see down to 82-85.
turned into a much more interesting day than normal.
(still say the closing level will signal what happens tomorrow)

role reversal and usdjpy is dragging nikkei lower. nikkei stopped moving higher some time ago. vs nikkei alone fair value is around 117.10. a break of support at 118.38 suggests temporarary top.

With rising oil prices central banks convinced us that it did not have an impact on inflation , with falling oil prices central banks convince us that it leads to deflation.

when you look at Abels target of 120.20
basically that would mean NYK today would need to close 118.70 or higher - because the largest day range we have seen has been 150 points.
the last 2 days we have been around the 90 mark and gone up each day -- so if it is a bullish day tomorrow - we should walk in Asia Open @118.90-95 +
if we see something different than that - then we know something is up.
Just putting it out there.

good call Abel - you had stuck with that for a few days now
I definately think we see 119.10 soon - way too much momentum in the market - and just a wipe out for those still short over the last couple days.
Maybe one dip to 28-30 but that would be it... or it could be there in 15 minutes lol .. anyway lets see.

It is interesting how gbp/jpy is not participating as well as eur/jpy and $jpy. It is acting like the child who does not want to Uncle Bubba's wedding and has to be dragged along kicking and screaming.

EUR/USD - ...... The single currency swung wildly on Wednesday as despite ratcheting higher from Asian low at 1.2513 to a fresh near 3-week high at 1.2602 in NY after release of FOMC minutes, renewed broad-based buying in greenback emerged and quickly knocked price down to 1.2525.
Later, euro recovered to 1.2556 in Thursday's Australia before retreating to 1.2530 in Asian morning.
The overnight sell off and failure to close above 1.2600 level yesterday suggest initial choppy trading with downside bias would be seen and selling euro on recovery ahead of the release of a slew of PMI reports from EU and its member countries in European morning is the favorable strategy.
Offers are placed at 1.2550-60 and then 1.2575/80 with mixture of offers and stops emerging just above 1.2600.
On the downside, bids are placed at 1.2510-00 and around 1.2480 with stops located just below 1.2450.
Last night the single currency briefly rose to 1.2602 after the release of FOMC minutes which showed many Federal Reserve policy makers last month said they should be on the lookout for signs of a decline in expectations for inflation, however, renewed dollar's strength knocked price lower.
Thursday will see the release of Japan's export, imports, trade balance and manufacturing PMI, China HSBC manufacturing PMI, BoJ monthly economic survey, Germany's producer prices ad Markit service PMI, EU Markit PMI, U.K. retail sales, CBI trade, Canada's wholesale trade, U.S. CPI, Markit manufacturing PMI, Philly Fed business index, existing home sales, leading index change and consumer confidence.

Samuel,
I am not sure who would recommend me as I am still trying to figure this out myself. I know enough to be a danger to myself. There are better people here to get help from.
However, here are a few things to keep you busy until you talk with GVI John or GVI Jay
Check out the "Learn" link above.
Also, This too
In addition, regarding the postings here. Ignore the comments that do not relate to actual trading ideas ( like how dumb some CB or economist, politician, etc is ). Pay attention to what people trade and why. Watch to see if it works. Those are the ones you pay attention to. If you do not know why someone is taking a trading position ASK.
Most important, DO NOT TRADE WITH YOUR CAPITAL right now.

2) Get a demo account
3) Send an email to Jay or John ( the head guys here ) and they will get you going in the right direction.

I think it is highly unlikely BOJ is concerned about quickness of the move up. They may give some lip service ( which I doubt ). It has ALWAYS been and will ALWAYS be about the exporters. And the better the level to bring their profits home the better especially before year end. And the same for end of 1st qtr next year.

seems your right on the money there John
when the Stocks hit their low that was the 118.00 test and you seem to be about right - the tolerance before worry seems to be on the upper band of 200-300
up 15 pts in stocks and $yen back to being better bid.
Gold broke 1180 just now ... but AUD so far can't hold below 8600
Really the only concern is the random "speed of the move is excessive" ... type thing we sometimes get in this time-zone... that you don't see in London or NYK.

As of yesterday, I was considering closing my accumulated short jpy positions (from 109 and 140). Now, I am reconsidering as there seems to be some new momentum. So any dip to 117.50-117.80 is a gift. Even if the Nikkei were drop 2-300 pts the drop in $jpy is a gift.
Picking up long $jpy and eur/jpy have been the no brainer play while every where else has been harder to play for me.

It is the pace of a move more than a level that prompts a CB concern comment. In this case G20 gave Japan a free pass and BoJ did not comment yesterday but will nevertheless be on alert.
