    Euro FX
    EUR/USD
    Date 23/01/2012
    Last extreme 31/10/2011
    Total Open Interest 315,634
    Net Marginal Change 8,488
    Marginal Accumulation 188,578
    Change in Total OI (%) 83.81
    The Euro technically broken out from the down trend. The COT sentiment is strongly bullish in the Euro futures market - open interest is still surging. Traders added another 8,488 new transactions on 20th Jan. The Open Interest reaching all time high levels every day. It has now amounted to unprecedented 315,634 contracts. Given the sentiment strategy we assume that the current rally is short lived and we shall see test of the support in near future. We now entered 1/3 of the long position EUR/USD at 1.2880 with the target 1.3070. We expect the price to retreat and Open Interest to drop before the full mid/long term up trend resumes.

    GBP FUTURES
    GBP/USD
    Date 21/01/2012
    Last extreme 13/1/2012
    Total Open Interest 193,381
    Net Marginal Change -6,368
    Marginal Accumulation -21,409
    Change in Total OI (%) -10.0
    In Friday’s trading Cable lost 6,368 transactions. British currency has now dropped OI by 10%. Please bear in mind that we had a significant decrease in OI in this market earlier in January. After - Cable managed to recoup 12% and dropped 10% again last week. Given ranging price we expect downtrend to weaken. Higher prices in GBP/USD over long term are imminent. We have entered long position last week. It has now locked some profits. Expect Pound to rally further. Possible retrace from the current levels before the trend resumes.

    YEN FUTURES
    USD/JPY
    Date 21/01/2012
    Last extreme 27/12/2011
    Total Open Interest 163,908
    Net Marginal Change 2,978
    Marginal Accumulation 34,406
    Change in Total OI (%) 25.96
    Yen futures increased another 2,978 in Friday’s session. Yen has now accumulated 34,406 or 26% new transactions. The current rate of increase is clearly fading. We shall see more range trading in yen futures. Given significant increase in long, commercial positions in this market, we anticipate higher prices in USD/JPY in the near future

    FRANK FUTURES
    USD/CHF
    Date 21/01/2012
    Last extreme 01/11/2011
    Total Open Interest 40,485
    Net Marginal Change 450
    Marginal Accumulation 40,950
    Change in Total OI (%) 144.23
    Swissy’s futures interest remains flat. Traders added just 450 new positions to the market. The rate of increase has been flat in over a week. The price of USD/CHF has fallen. We assume that the anticipated top is in place. Expect rebound to test the resistance. Only 10% decrease in open interest will give a reason to enter full short position. GFS recommends to sell USD/CHF on rallies

    AUD FUTURES
    AUD/USD
    Date 21/01/2012
    Last extreme 19/12/2011
    Total Open Interest 139,682
    Net Marginal Change 2,564
    Marginal Accumulation 37,022
    Change in Total OI (%) 25.71
    Interest in Australian dollar is going strong. We saw another 2,564 new positions added on Friday. AUD/USD is now testing September 2011 high. There is a pullback anticipated in short run. Long term bull trend should remain strong as long as the open interest keep coming in.
