USD Stretched Ahead of Employment Report, while Yuan Jumps on Hopes of New Property Initiatives

2023-01-06

by

2023-01-06

Overview: The US dollar extended yesterday's gains as the market adjusts positions ahead of the jobs data. Yesterday and today's price action looks to have strengthened the near-term technical outlook for the greenback. However, the intraday momentum indicators are stretched. This warns of the risk of a counter-intuitive move after the data, barring a significant surprise. Meanwhile, one of the Fed's leading hawkish voices, St. Louis Fed President...

The Market Appears to Shrug Off the Fed’s Warning

2023-01-05

by

2023-01-05

Overview: The US dollar is consolidating in a mixed fashion today. The FOMC minutes drew much attention but failed, at least initially, to spur a significant shift in expectations. The pricing in the Fed funds futures strip is still consistent with a cut later this year, which the minutes were clear, no officials anticipate. Today's US ADP jobs estimate, and November trade balance are being overshadowed by tomorrow's nonfarm payroll figures. The...

Yesterday’s Gains Unwound may Make the Greenback a Better Buy Ahead of FOMC Minutes

2023-01-04

by

2023-01-04

Overview:  Yesterday's greenback gains have been mostly reversed today. New efforts by China in its property market and anticipation of more stimulus helped rekindle the animal spirits today. Asia and Europe shrugged off yesterday's losses on Wall Street and the rally in bonds continued. The 8-12 bp decline in European benchmark 10-year yields comes even though the final composite PMI was better than expected fanning hopes of a short and shallow...

by

The USD rose vs the EUR and GBP but is dipping in early NY trading. Meanwhile the USD fell and is now rising vs the JPY.

2023-01-02

by

The EURUSD is starting the trading year with more upside momentum and in the process retraced some of the declines from the EURUSD's decline in 2022. The pip trading range for the 2022 year was about 2000 pips which is near the extreme of the low to high trading range over the last 12 or so years. What will 2023 bring us, if we anticipate a more normal range of about 1400-1600 pips and the rallies are to be sold in the EURUSD? IN this video,...

The US dollar's bull market appears to have come to a climactic end late in Q3 22 and early Q4.

Such significant moves are often followed by consolidation and corrections. These countertrend moves can offer new opportunities to adjust currency exposures.Three...
