Australian Dollar

AUD has technically created a base, around 0.70 level on the back of Trump announcing his willingness to cut a deal with China after the G20 summit by the end of November. This could be the beginning of the end to the trade war story. This would bode very well for the Australian dollar as risk-on flows would pick up. China is actively stimulating its own economy via liquidity injection and infrastructure spending. Which prompts increased raw material imports from Australia and thus aids the economy and AUD.

USDCHF 08/08/2018

USDCHF SHORT This week we are shorting USDCHF using COT data as our rationale. COT data reveals an incredible inside intelligence. Despite the myth that only non-commercial(Large speculators) are important to observe, commercials(Hedgers) have the same importance. Non-commercials are responsible for fuelling trends while commercials to cap or halt the trends.  And even with a huge amount of capital, these two groups have, one moment their buying/selling power exhausts and its in that moment that trends changes. Another fact is this change also occur when open interest reaches a peak, if both occur at the same moment we have...

EURUSD 09-13.04 2018

EURUSD LONG Trade war talk and lower NFP print gave EURUSD an opportunity to bounce. But option defender at 1.2200 and FOMC on Wednesday are lending a hand to push the price to 1.2370 again. And possibly the start of the next leg up on this pair. Following the last FOMC minutes where the indication was given that the FED will hike a total of 4 times this year. Preemptively inviting euro sellers. The upcoming minutes of the meeting are likely hawkish too and inline with the last one. In other words old news. There is a slight downward risk...
