FRIDAY 23 May 2014
Germany:
- - IFO survey.  Most important German sentiment survey and usually a market mover. Consensus: mixed to weaker

Canada:
- - CPI Seen within the Bank of Canada target range. Such an outcome would dampen speculation for a rate cut.

United States:
- -  New Homes Sales. Another piece of the housing picture. It is seen  improving. This is usually not a market mover.

As recently as yesterday, the much-publicized Monterey formation accounted for nearly two-thirds of all technically-recoverable US shale oil resources.

But by this morning? The EIA now estimates these reserves to be 96% lower than it previously claimed.

Yes, you read that right: 96% lower. As in only 4% of the original estimate is now thought to be technically-recoverable at today's prices

you might be wondering just how the EIA got its estimate so badly wrong. The answer is that the EIA relied on a private firm,

Flash PMI data from Europe were missed with Manufacturing data falling and Service data mixed, but on balance higher. In general they support the case for ECB ease in two weeks time.

I have seen some recent revisions to forecasts for the AUD

one camp calls for 9700 cents first then parity.

the other says 95 the top and end of year 8900.

The thing is we are going to see a weakening of the numbers going forward here .. but currency wise it probably depends on how many safe haven flows head this way.

EUR/USD - 1.3677... News from Reuters, Russia's President Putin says 'Russia ready to expand cooperation with all nations on basis of equality n respect of each other's interests.'

Germany manufacturing PMI came in weaker-than-expected at 52.9 vs forecast of 54.0 whilst services PMI was reported at 56.4, higher than expectation of 54.5.



02:34GMT EUR/USD - 1.3677

The single currency met renewed selling interest at 1.3723 on Wed and then tumbled to a fresh 3-month trough at 1.3635 in NY after penetrating last Thur's low at 1.3648, however, short-covering after the release of FOMC minutes lifted the pair to 1.3688 b4 retreating to 1.3673/74 in Asian morning today.

According to minutes of its April 29-30 meeting released on Wednesday in Washington, the Federal Open Market Committee doesn't "face a trade-off between its employment and inflation objectives, and an expansion of aggregate demand would result in further progress relative to both objectives."

Bids are now located at 1.3675-65 n more at 1.3655-50. On the upside, some offers are tipped at 1.3700-05 n 1.3720-30. Trading is likely to be thin until European open. France, Germany n eurozone will release their manufacturing and services PMIs at 07:00GMT, 07:30GMT n 08:00GMT respectively.

I have the impression John that the whole world will shortly be dealing with less than impressive growth so that makes the impact of weak statistics on currencies a moot point. If we all start to slide, as I think we will, then the forecasters go back to the drawing board. It will be interesting to see how the FED squares off a more hawkish stance with a less than impressive economy. So far they have blamed the weather. That won't do in the longer term.

No change to the start of this thread that I posted. trading against 1.3688 has worked several times and still blocks 1.37

Let's try it with specific currencies so it is easier to pick out the topic.

Agree or disagree.

EURUSD will not extend its 7 day pattern around 1.37 today. The best chance of this happening is if flash PMIs exceed forecasts and EURUSD pops up on the data. This would be an opportunity to sell unless it gets back above 1.3735. Currently, 1.3688 blocks return to 1.37.

By the way, it did reach an initial target of 1.3635 (low 1.3633) = 200 day mva where it bounced from.

Only commodity producers should be concerned about what manufacturing in China is doing. It's so ironic. Chinese products / exports reduce GDP and employment in importing countries (most of the rest of the world and certainly the OECD). Chinese trade surpluses are trade deficits in the rest of the world. If China slows it might signal slowing international trade and slowing demand internationally (both happening) but to cheer increased Chinese production and / or Chinese exports is irrational unless you live in China.

Agree or Disagree? EURUSD

Joe maybe you should step out while whatever is happening runs its course. Time out maybe in the fresh air is priceless.

My take is that the USD/JPY is key. JPY has been the funding currency for everything. The universal view was that USD/JPY was going to 110. It's not. But until the longs are stopped out en masse all those trades remain. I'm watching U.S. yields and USD/JPY. If U.S. yields have bottomed (because the heat got to much for the manipulators or the market gets spooked by talk of covert QE or because Yellen and co move further to the hawkish side of things - in my view likely) then we should go back to normal markets. But we aren't there yet and my fear is we may not get there till after Summer.

Anyway till then if you have to trade trade small. I know I am. Good luck, good trades.

Apology accepted Joe. Sorry your system isn't working. FWIW I don't think markets are functioning normally at present. And I don't think that's accidental.

We very much share the view that the markets are not behaving normally...... I've had perfect signal a number of times, which previously were proved to be almost perfect, and now.... anything but.

I think the way forward for me is to regard such indications as dynamic pivots and to place buys above and sells below. Until now, I got direction, but time and again get run on to the rocks as it were.

ib I do apologise, nothing personal. I'd had possibly too much wine and gave expression when it might have been better not to do so.

To my way of thinking, 'Share your trading ideas' would have 'buy' this or 'sell' that as opposed to open ended musings on the questionable state of the world in general.

Bitter and twisted? Well, maybe a bit. My set-up which once allowed pretty decent timings for upcoming moves has gone off beam and I can't seem to fix it.

EU parliamentary elections are scheduled to begin today, although most countries vote on Sunday. Polls suggest there is likely to be strong support for anti-EU parties in a number of countries, which could fuel concerns about the future of Europe, at least in the near-term. In reality, however, these parties are likely to have little impact on policy.

Today�s May flash� PMI data for the euro area will provide a further insight on the strength activity in the second quarter. We expect modest falls compared with April but the levels should be consi

Markets have been very gung ho on the Euro and the ECB obviously doesn't like it. We have European elections and the next ECB meeting to get through before you could look for strength. Yellen and company are sounding more hawkish. So I think you could bide your time. Longer term agree, short term the risk reward is against you.

Joe you sound bitter and twisted. Pointless baiting is really well pointless.

I read somewhere that Japanese reported strong buying of foreign bonds. Obviously not Treasuries. Can't find any release though. Does someone have the data?

Despite yesterday's resumption of decline from April's high at 104.13 to a fresh 3-1/2 month low at 100.81 in European morning due to active cross buying in Japanese yen, subsequent rebound on active short-covering after holding above this year's low at 100.76 (February) suggests choppy trading would continue. U.S. dollar later rebounded to 101.63 in New York after the release of FOMC minutes b4 trading sideways. Bids are now reported at 101.40-30 n more at 101.20-10 with stops only seen below 101.00.

Current GBPJPY is 171.40

For this to play out JPY has (USDJPY firm) to weaken as GBP is likely to lag.

If Nomura is right in its forecast for an Oct BoJ ease, then it may be a matter of timing. At that time expectations of a BOE rate hike would make it a green light trade. If July is the time. then different timing?
