I have taken almost today off.. Just came in peaking on the rates...

103.70ish on YEN and EJ almost making to 134 and boom down it comes...

Got me shorts on euro at 2974 / yen 103.69 and EJ failing at complete entries off 133.91-99 had to take smaller ones on a 132.27 break a bit later at 133.03 but managed to see my entry hitting out at 131.40 rt above previous halt mark of 131.30.. It then went further down to my surprise..

YEn had a smaller limit of 60 pips and was done and…

BMO Capital Markets - "the forthcoming key US data today and tomorrow will, we think, be significant for USD/JPY and equity markets. If the data are particularly strong, we suspect that a decent portion of the moves towards a weaker USD could be unwound by the end of the week, particularly if European equities move towards the “black” and US equities strike a buoyant tone. In the event of strong US data, we might look to start fading rallies or taking profit on long USD positions in AUD/USD…

The EURUSD continued to maintain its bearish momentum yesterday after topping at 1.2998 levels, pressure now will be on the key support 1.2795, the EURUSD will have to hold below 1.2795 levels on a daily closing basis to push the market for further downside losses, If seen , it will target 1.2625 where a breach will turn focus on the 1.2500 ahead of 1.2400 levels.

Alternatively , a failure to hold below 1.2795 could mean a return to the 1.2998 levels,to completely eliminate the…

Fidelity Worldwide Investment - "The rise in Japanese government bond yields is starting to undermine equity sentiment and especially J-REITs which have been selling off for the last month. Market volatility in Japan is such that it remains to be seen if this will be a lasting correction or just a natural pull back after many days of strong rises.

The danger I see from JGB market volatility is that a rise in yields could:

· hurt confidence via stock prices

· reduce support for…

Societé Generale - "Good Morning. Buy the dollar, sell EMFX and sell carry. It isn't about when the Fed “tapers”, it's about too many positions on the same side of the boat and the danger of a capsize.

When the Fed will slow its Treasury purchases will be data-dependent and the Funds rate may be less important in policy-making going forwards. Those are the direct takeaways from the FOMC minutes but the market tells us something different. The prospect of low rates for a long time…

This week started slowly, but that all changed dramatically on Wednesday, as the euro went on a wild ride following remarks by Federal Reserve Chair Bernard Bernanke before a Congressional Committee. The euro tested the 1.2998, but then fell hard, closing the day at 1.2842. Almost forgotten in the excitement was US Existing Home Sales, which fell below expectations. There are a host of US and Eurozone releases on Thursday. European PMIs were mixed, but French and German Manufacturing…

HSBC - "The USD rally has further to run. The currency war is getting bigger and more intense, drawing ever more protagonists into the fray. In part, this may be because of the success of those central banks who have already sought economic advantage through targeting their currency. The market has realised there is no point in fighting the central banks at this time, and the USD is the natural candidate to act as the offset to this desire for depreciation elsewhere. If anything, the risks…

A Daily black body was formed during yesterday’s trading session.

A Daily engulfing bearish line has formed (where a black candle's real body completely contains the previous white candle's real body). The engulfing bearish pattern is bearish during an uptrend. It signifies that the momentum may be shifting from the bulls to the bears. 

If the engulfing bearish pattern occurs during a downtrend (which appears to be the case with Euro Dollar / US…

AUD/JPY  DAILY as of Thursday, 23 May, 2013

A Daily big black candle was formed during yesterday’s trading session.. This is a bearish candle as prices closed significantly lower than they opened. If the candle appears when prices are "high," it may be the first sign of a top. If it occurs when prices are confronting an overhead resistance area (e.g., a moving average, trend line, or price resistance level), the long black candle adds credibility to the resistance.…

GBP/USD is well followed a path mentioned on my weekly count.

I believe, GBP/USD is now completed it’s pattern and looking for pull back here, I am building my long here. There are few reason for going long which are as follow:

Royal Bank of Scotland - "There are no major changes in our view. We still favour buying dollars. We still forecast sizeable declines in EUR and in GBP against the USD over the next 12 months. We think the dollar strengthens initially (next six months) in a world of squashed volatility globally, cross asset class and some relative US cyclical growth optimism. Your funding currencies in this ‘li quidity solutions dominate’ world are Yen, pounds, and then Euros. We think the dollar strengthens…

National Australia Bank - "We have closed our long USD/JPY from 94.40 at 102.01; a gain of 8.1%. We look to buy again on a dip to 101.80

Our short AUD, long CAD established at 1.0635 was closed at 1.0078 for a 5.2% profit in just four weeks.

We exited our long-standing EUR/CHF position at 1.2440 for a gain of 3.4% and would be keen to re-establish this at 1.2390.

The short GBP/USD position from 1.5150 was exited for minimal loss at 1.5198. We are currently neutral here.

ING Bank - "Bernanke’s testimony to Congress on the economy did not result in many surprises. As “Chief Dove” on the FOMC, he clung to the notion that the tax rises and sequester from earlier this year would have a profoundly negative effect on the economy (which is not totally supported by recent evidence), and that the Fed needed to counteract this with easy monetary policy.

There was no change in his view that the Fed’s dual mandate of price stability and maximum employment required…
