the WSJ notes that "through the second week of February, Citadel�s main fund is down 6.5% this year, a person familiar with the matter said." As Copeland notes, "Mr. Griffin grapples with a money-losing stretch unusual for one of the hedge-fund world�s marquee names."Perhaps the HFTs are no longer profitable?
In any case, that is only part of the story.
As our source reveals, Citadel is quietly trying to unwind the $50 billion leveraged Surveyor portfolio.
Following massive losses last year by a Boston-based trader Scott Carmel (who lost over $150 million from 2015 through January 2016 trading financial stocks, and was fired for performance last month)
What the WSJ DID NOt NOTE is that "now there is a desperate scramble to try to unwind a massively leveraged equities portfolio (over $50 billion gross)."

I posted this earlier on GVI Forex and is working as suggested. ECB minutes bounce held 1.1110, followed by 1.1085. Contact me to request free access
EURUSD: 1.1094
The 1.1085 initial target I have been citing is next support along with 1.1075 (closing one hour bar). Below it there is little until 1.0960ish except 1.1044 = 200 hour mva (suggests 1.1050 would become pivotal).
Back above 1.1106 would be needed to slow the risk (suggests 1.1100-10)
Note EURGBP flows have been the weight on EURUSD although EUR crosses are generally weak.

USD/JPY - 113.68
Dollar's intra-day retreat from 114.32 suggests further choppy trading below Tuesday's high at 114.88 would continue with downside bias, however, below yesterday's low at 113.38 is needed to signal the correction from last week's trough at 110.99 has ended there and yield stronger retracement towards 113.10/20, however, support at 112.93 should remain intact and yield rebound later.
On the upside, only above 114.51 would indicate aforesaid pullback is over instead and turn outlook bullish for a re-test of said top, break, 115.10/20.

EUR/USD - 1.1136
Despite yesterday's resumption of decline from last Thursday's 3-1/2 month peak of 1.1377 to 1.1106 in New York morning, subsequent rebound following mildly dovish FOMC minutes suggests temporary low is possibly made and consolidation with upside bias is in store, above 1.1193 would confirm this view and bring stronger retracement to 1.1240/50.
Below 1.1106 would extend marginal weakness, however, loss of downward momentum should prevent steep fall today and reckon daily chart sup at 1.1086 would hold on 1st testing and bring rebound.
