maybe someone can fill in correctives and / or exactitudes:

The Tr Dep would do so thru one of its Semi-Annual Report to Congress on International Economic and Exchange Rate Policies (last one I believe was April 13th, next one should be in October)
In April, the Monitoring List listed China, Japan, Korea, Germany, Switzerland, and India.
The potential consequences of actually being declared CCy Manipulator are: ___

think powell is different ?
He whined to congressional committee that “U.S. fiscal policy has been on an unsustainable path for some time. It continues to be unsustainable.”
But bottom line is that the policy is still on unsustainable path.
When will it hit the proverbial wall: when the debt will equal GDP ?
IF GDP were to remain static at current ~20trillion trump still has 19trillion to play with

If it comes across that way it is not my intention. I am not sensitive about anything to do with trading - very thick skin - especially AT, which speaks for itself. The beauty of AT is I never have to defend it.
I am just pointing out the difference between John's macro bias and a day trading bias. I took the opportunity to point out what AT was showing as a way to encourage you guys (and gals) to try it.
So rather than defensive it was offensive.

FS, This is not a contest and depends on your time frame .You said that at 1.1438 and it fell to 1.1394 before bouncing.
Intra-day bias changes often, AT, for example, showed a shift to the upside starting at 1.1415.
