just wanted to comment on your letter from Ortiz. I agree 100% with all he has to say about the position of casinos and their management in regard to cheating. I really have no stake in whether he and Steve Forte believe a dealer can place a ball in a section, but I would ask these questions:
How long do you suppose it would take to learn to spin a roulette ball so that it made exactly four revolutions before dropping?
If the wheel head were spinning very slowly and you picked a number (say zero) and a fixed point (say the 12 o'clock position) and spun the ball so it made four revolutions and dropped, do you think if you picked up the ball and waited for the zero to be at 12 o'clock again and spun it four revolutions again that it might end up close to where it landed before?
Do you think you could maybe land it in half the wheel head?
If a player can clock a moving roulette ball, couldn't a dealer?
I believe that Mr. Ortiz could learn to spin a roulette ball to make four revolutions within one hour. In a few more hours I bet he could make it go five revolutions, or six or seven. If they are really interested in this, why not take an hour and give it a try?

Just at the market began its torrid ramp higher today at 11:15 am on the dot, something else was expected to happen: the Fed's open market buying, or POMO, of Agency MBS (yes, those still continue despite the end of QE because the Fed has to keep the level of its balance sheet flat and offset maturities).
Only today this did not happen.
Perhaps as dealers were expecting a fixed income bid from the Fed at exactly that moment, one which didn't come, they instead had to square of unhedged delta positions by selling rates,
As Bloomberg writes, there has been no explanation what the "technical difficulties" are, however it is somewhat perplexing that just as the POMO was supposed to start, what happened instead was a surge in 10 Year yields, the USDJPY and, of course, the S&P 500 which has wiped out more than half the day's losses in minutes.

kw.... FWIW the economy in Australia is on a holding pattern right now.... waiting for China, property, mining etc. FWIW that article suggested that property prices will start to fall in Australia by March 2016:
Macquarie Bank: "Our economics team are forecasting quarter-on-quarter house prices to fall from the March 2016 quarter before beginning to recover from June 2017, with a 7.5 per cent fall from peak to trough... easing population growth just as housing supply surged well above trend, raising the risk of “rapid adjustment”.
Credit Suisse has also warned about the deterioration in buying conditions, particularly in NSW. “Macro-prudential tightening, out-of-cycle rate hikes on investor mortgages, and weakness in Chinese buying are having a clear impact on sentiment and demand,” it said.
It came after both the ANZ and Commonwealth Bank indicated a tightening of lending to property developers due to oversupply fears as the market cools."
A softer USD will keep AUD buoyed... on the crosses (AUD/JPY EUR/AUD) more scope for selling AUD. gl gt

Meanwhile no-one wants to do anything about the unfunded aged pension scheme which is where all the problems are in the first place.
Why is this? This is the template around the globe: really stupid, unfunded, unfair pension schemes and the 'solution' is always to tax the h.ll out of everything else to fund these crazy pensions... and no-one wants to reform the system.

I especially like the last chart:
Contribution to Australian GDP from various industries:
Property ownership 182
Residentialy ownership 147
Mining 140
Financial services 110
etc.
Mining has gone belly up and now the property market 'seems' shakey. They are the two big pillars of the Australian economy. Turnbull though is backing away from making the tax mix more onerous for property owners (wise move). Though all the weirdo tax reformers don't think so. The noise that suggests there is some kind of tax paradise for property in Australia is so far from the truth it's a joke.
Capital Gains tax may only come to 25 percent or so if you are a resident and hold for more than one year but there is no (yes read that right NO) indexation for inflation and no discount if you hold for 20 or 30 years or even more. So some little old lady holding property for 30 years is going to get slammed with a 25 percent tax on the nominal gain if she sells. Principal place of residence is exempted but the zealots would like to tax gains there too. Australians think the current CGT regime is a good deal. The tax debate is so without international comparisons it's crazy. Australians are taxed to death and don't even know it. But then they don't seem to know that they are drowning in debt either. Go figure.
Medium term implications for the AUD? Negative of course. But not necessarily against the USD, which has problems all of its own. gl gt

A British exit from the European Union would be so devastating for the pound that 29 out of 34 economists in a Bloomberg survey see it sinking to $1.35 or below within a week of a vote to leave -- levels last seen in 1985.
Twenty-three of the economists say sterling wouldn’t recover from that rate within three months of the June 23 referendum. Seven see the U.K. currency falling below $1.20 immediately after a “Brexit” vote. And just one sees it above $1.40. That’s stronger than its low on Wednesday, when the pound fell through $1.39 for the first time since 2009.

Two things about GBP this AM -- first, the IN camp includes most (all?) the major financial institutions and their armies of analysts and economists -- predictably the flood of BREXIT comments are "dire consequences", "pound to parity (EUR)" and INFLATION -- this group will not provide a basis for the reasoned decision making by the voters // Now the inflation issue is intriguing because it should elicit a BoE response but the CB's have been so unified in the "WHIP DEFLATION NOW" camp that it might seem a bit hypocritical to now speak against the inflation case
The second point is that Switzerland's currency seems to do quite well surrounded by the EUR zone -- the Pound has not been absorbed into the Trade Zone scrip so there is no reason to think that a continuation of its recent range should be in jeopardy -- it is unlikely that the UK would suddenly revert to the BAD old days

DJ Looks Like Folks Want to Worry Today -- Market Talk
7:30 ET - US stock-index futures' decline continues to deepen, with the drop now around 1%, as oil's Wednesday selloff also builds and major European equity markets are down some 2%. Looks like another risk-off day. Frankly, there's nothing particular to pin the action on, though oil is getting hit amid worries about further increases to US supplies that today's weekly inventory report might show. But in general, things which have been concerns continue to be concerns. Today merely appears to be a day folks don't want to ignore them. S&P 500 futures are down 17 points as Nymex oil falls some 3.5%. Gold rises 1% and the dollar is broadly higher, sending the euro down to $1.0965. Treasurys also gain, pushing the 10-year yield to 1.69%. ([email protected]; @kevinkingsbury)

DEFICITS AHEAD
After a stint of healthy surpluses, including HK$30 billion ($3.86 billion) for the current financial year, Tsang said he expected the city to run up deficits in its consolidated accounts for two years starting from 2018, largely due to the need to pay for healthcare reform and retirement protection.
The city's deep financial, service and trade links with China have also weighed on growth, including the retail and tourism sectors which have been hit hard by a drop in mainland tourists.
"Weak tourism was caused by the anti-corruption campaign in China and a relatively strong Hong Kong dollar compared to neighboring economies," said Iris Pang, an economist at Natixis.
......
The recent riot, slowness in rolling out major infrastructure projects such as a rail link with China and HSBC Holdings' recent shunning of the city for its headquarters, are posing a stiff test for Hong Kong's Beijing-backed leader Leung Chun-ying and have tarnished its reputation as a law-abiding and efficient global business hub.

DJ HSBC's Brexit Forecast Says Sterling Could Tumble 20% to a Three Decade Low
By Mike Bird
Sterling hit a fresh seven-year low on Wednesday, but the selloff may only just be starting.
If Britain votes to leave the European Union on June 23, the pound could fall by between 15% and 20% against the dollar, according to HSBC .
The pound has already been hit hard amid concern over a U.K. departure from the EU and on Wednesday fell by more that 0.5% against the dollar, leaving the British currency below $1.40 after Monday's tumble. That takes the pound's losses for the week to over 3%.
But that's nothing, says HSBC. If the U.K. does drift towards so-called Brexit the pound could push past levels against the dollar last seen in 1985.
That's because the uncertainty that a decision to leave the EU would cause could drive investors away from U.K. assets, HSBC says. Lower demand or British investments from abroad would mean less demand for sterling, causing the pound to fall.
Other forecasters have projected a fall in the pound if the June referendum ends in a U.K. exit.
In a note earlier in February, Goldman Sachs analysts said Brexit "would increase uncertainty, weigh on the U.K. outlook and raise concerns of foreign investors." Similarly, Deutsche Bank researchers said that "a U.K. exit from the EU is likely to negatively impact sterling."
But HSBC has put a number on it, and that number is the most dramatic so far as investors contemplate the latest EU drama.

DJ ECB's Weidmann Warns of Effects of Easy Policy -- Market Talk
1026 GMT European Central Bank policymaker and Bundesbank head Jens Weidmann warns it is "dangerous to simply ignore" the side-effects of further accommodative monetary policy. He adds fears of second-round effects from low inflation are "far-fetched" and that the economic outlook for the eurozone is "not as bad as it is sometimes made out to be." However, he says protracted low inflation is undoubtedly a challenge. The comments do little to help the euro, with the ECB widely expected to announce more easing measures in March.

Dollar's selloff to 111.77 yesterday, then intra-day fall below this level strongly suggests the first leg of correction from February's 15-month trough at 110.99 has ended at 114.88 last Tuesday and consolidation with downside bias would be seen for weakness towards 111.30/40, however, near term loss of momentum would keep price above support at 111.10/15.
On the upside, only above 113.05 would indicate aforesaid pullback is over instead and turn outlook bullish for stronger gain towards 113.39, then 113.62.

red- thanks. Logical they would not want to be exposed to client losses. If I were a broker, I would not quote any pegged currencies.

i dont know the broker in question but guarandamnteed its a bucket. hkd is pegged and so moves v little. the only way it is going to move is if the peg goes. despite various crises over the past couple of decades, the peg has held firm. but all spec pressure is on the hkd sell side and really you are buying a call option when going long usdhkd as its not moving under 7.75. the only way it can go if at all is up. so as a bucket that runs client possies against my own capital, its not in my interests to allow folk to long usdhkd as in the event of a peg break, i will get swissed. better to stop folk trading it and i have dispensed with that risk with no loss to bottom line as there is no profit from clients losing on usdhkd longs as it wont go under 7.75.

DJ Not Good Idea to Bet on Euro Weakening Due to 'Brexit' Fears -- Market Talk
0605 GMT [Dow Jones] Though it's true that the "Brexit" fears are causing euro selling, it's not a good idea to bet on the currency's rapid weakening, says Mizuho Securities economist Daisuke Karakama. He says the euro zone's current account surplus is the world's biggest and the bloc's slow inflation is setting its interest rates relatively higher on real terms. Karakama says he expects the unwinding of euro selling and dollar buying positions to kick off, assuming a China slowdown, oil price falloff and the inability of the Fed to raise rates this year. He points to the EUR/USD's upswing in March-August last year, due to unwinding of the EUR short positions after tensions over "Grexit" peaked out. ([email protected])

EUR/USD - 1.1010
Although euro is expected to gain respite in Asia following yesterday's intra-day decline from 1.1052 to 1.0990 following release of downbeat German Ifo data and initial consolidation is in store, outlook remains mildly bearish for recent decline from February's 1.1377 peak to pressure price to 1.0950/60.
However, loss of near term downward momentum should prevent steep fall and risk has increased for a much-needed minor correction to take place later today or tomorrow.
On the upside, expect 1.1052 to hold and yield one more fall, only a daily close above 1.1067/71 would signal temporary bottom is finally in place and may bring stronger retracement towards 1.1093.

That longer pink 123.6% line that all those FED Mouths have been defending --- is a 1804 ....the 123 retracement of the Oct 2007 high to the March 2009 low. So guess it's an important number to whoever decides to send out the Mouths t juice Stox.

My charts used to be a lot less clutterd before there was so much FED Mouth interference. LOL,
but as you can see from the initial Bullard's Bottom, how much Mouth has been spent staving off a drop below 1800....it's gone on for so long that a huge vacuum has developed. DeMark points to this today.
so first stop is 1765-1770...23% down off Dudley's 1st DoRight, Aug 2015
Next is 1737-1745....23% down off the inital Bullard Bottom of Oct 2014
61.8 retrace is 1665 1670, then 1615-1620....respectively DoRight and Bullard

Latest Yougov poll - market reacting to the tight poll and not the fear poll
... The poll suggested that attempts to worry voters into staying in the EU were working and the Britons are becoming more averse to the risks of leaving, the Times reported. (thetim.es/20TT4B5)
The newspaper said that the fears have contributed to a 6-point drop, to 31 percent, among those who thought leaving the bloc would be a safer option, while 43 percent said it would be safer to stay, which was down 1 percentage point..,.
...The poll showed 38 percent of Britons would vote to leave the bloc compared with the 37 percent who want to remain, with 25 percent saying they were undecided.
