euro, aussie and cad - COT readings

I was looking at some COT charts and would like to share some thoughts here.The comments are pretty straight forward and the charts have more comments on it(all charts from barchart.com).COT for euro still shows some potential for an up move, as commercials positioning is still long and there wasn't a big sell of inventory during these up move, as shown by the OI.Here is the chart for euro:…See More

Confessions of a frustrated currency trader

Cheers up! I think I will take a break today, review charts and concepts.But I would like to use this space to state that I am frustrated with my trading this and last week.I had good levels on my charts and a plan but even so, didn't take the action. Instead, I tried to go with some counter trend trades and took some losses. Well I took 35 pips out of euro yesterday but I was chasing price and was against my plan so, I consider it a fail.It only worked because even my grandmother was buying…See More

Euro futures with COT data

Here is a chart of Euro futures(E6), weekly continuation(charts from barchart.com).Note that the commercials are dumping their longs, what has a potential bullish implication for eurusd.There is some room until the next resistance level, open interest is dropping and the high volume on the last bars can be absorption.But it is a weekly chart so, intraday, we can have some pull-backs as well.…See More

Revisiting volume in euro and cable

Posted on September 13, 2012 at 5:10am 0 Comments

Hi there!

I would like to make a brief comment on euro and cable volume behavior.

As you can see in the charts below, the price is revisiting the highs but with much lower volume.

If the volume doesn't increase, another breakout becomes unlikely.

Of course it can be because the market is waiting the FOMC results. Another point for the case in favor of another breakout to the upside is that the price was supported when it revisited the upper range of the big volume…

Volume is telling something about euro?

Posted on September 12, 2012 at 12:00pm 0 Comments

Hi!

We continued the rally in risk today. Now that the German gave the ok for the salvation of Europe, let's see what will happens.

From now on, intentions will meet reality again and it could not be so easy to deal with.

Anyways, I was looking to euro and cable 1hr charts and saw something interesting.

We are within what was heavy supply areas for both pairs. The market is heavily long on them, as we can see. So, someday the profit taking will start and it can be…
