alayoua Posted July 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 12 2013 ECB Monthly Report: Interest rates could be reduced further The ECB signalized in its July Monthly Report that interest rates could be reduced further, should the price stability outlook warrant it. The recently introduced forward guidance was also included: “The Governing Council expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at present or lower levels for an extended period of time.” There was also some clarification of its time horizon: “The extended period of time over which the Governing Council currently expects the key ECB interest rates to remain at present or lower levels is a flexible horizon which does not pre-specify an end-date but is conditional on the Governing Council’s assessment of the economic fundamentals that determine underlying inflation." Furthermore, the Council pointed to recent improvements in Eurozone sentiment indicators which suggest a gradual recovery of the economy later this year and in 2014. To support it, the ECB is prepared to maintain the accomodative monetary policy for as long as necessary. The accomodative policy should prop up domestic demand while the recovery in global demand should boost export growth in the area. Additionally, the Governing Council suggested that “the overall improvements in financial markets seen since last summer should work their way through to the real economy, as should the progress made in fiscal consolidation.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/12072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-12 09:00 GMT | EMU.

alayoua Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 15 2013 Fitch downgrades France to AA+ from AAA Fitch Ratings has downgraded France to AA+ from AAA on Friday, keeping a stable outlook on the country's debt. Fitch, which joins S&P and Moody's in removing the country's AAA rating, cited the high level of the French government indebtedness as one of the main reasons of the downgrade. Fitch expects France's general government debt to peak at 96% of GDP in 2014 and decline only gradually over the long term, remaining at 92% in 2017. "The only 'AAA' country with a higher debt ratio is the U.S. (AAA/negative), which has exceptional financing flexibility and debt tolerance afforded by the preeminent global reserve currency status of the U.S. dollar," Fitch said in a statement. Standard & Poor's has affirmed on Friday Germany's top triple-A sovereign credit rating, with a stable outlook. The rating agency justified its decision saying that “Germany has a highly diversified and competitive economy with a demonstrated ability to absorb large economic and financial shocks.” As far as the outlook on the long-term rating is concerned, S&P's decision to keep it 'stable' reflects their view that: “Germany's public finances and strong external balance sheet will continue to withstand potential financial and economic shocks.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/15072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-15 07:15 GMT | Switzerland.

alayoua Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 16 2013 Dovish ECB, soft US retail sales balance each other out. Waiting on Bernanke – again! Dovish talk from the ECB undermined the Euro before the softer than expected US Retail Sales turned things around, sending the US dollar slightly lower. Markets are likely to be on hold ahead of Bernanke’s testimony to Congress although equities and commodities both looks solid in the short term. A mix of data out of the EU and the US could make it a bit choppy later in the day. Before then, the RBA Minutes will be Asia’s focus. The Euro has had a choppy but mostly uninteresting session, hanging close to 1.3000 as the northern hemisphere summer doldrums look to be well upon us. Early dovish comments from the ECB’s Hansson, indicating that there is room to cut rates further and that negative interest rates should not be ruled out helped push the Euro lower early in the session, before a bit of a turnaround following the softer than expected US retail Sales, that saw the dollar come under some pressure of its own. Fitch downgraded the EFSF – European Financial Stability Facility- to AA+ from AAA, which, following on from the recent France downgrade, had precisely no effect on the Euro at all. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/16072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : N/A | UK.

alayoua Posted July 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 18 2013 Fed's Bernanke: Asset purchases not 'on a preset course' According to the prepared text of Chairman Ben Bernanke's speech, to be delivered later today during his Semiannual Monetary Policy Report to the Congress, the pace of the Federal Reserve's bond purchases is not 'on a preset course', as it depends on the current economic and financial situation. The Fed head assured that signs of recovery are visible in the US labor market, but that “the jobs situation is far from satisfactory, as the unemployment rate remains well above its longer-run normal level.” He also pointed out that inflation is still below the Fed's 2% target. That is why “a highly accommodative monetary policy will remain appropriate for the foreseeable future.” As far as QE is concerned, Bernanke stressed that the decision on when the tapering should begin depends on the Fed's assessment of the US economic outlook. Should economic data improve earlier than forecasted and inflation rise towards the objective, a reduction could be carried out sooner. Otherwise, “the current pace of purchases could be maintained for longer.” According to Rob Carnell from ING: ”This speech neither contradicts nor supports the notion that the taper begins in September. The taper might begin then. But as we have written elsewhere, there are quite good reasons why it may occur somewhat later. Not that it really matters all that much anyway – given that the Fed funds decision is one that will be taken independently from QE.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/18072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-18 08:30 GMT | UK Retail Sales (YoY) 2013-07-18 12:30 GMT | US Initial Jobless Claims 2013-07-18 14:00 GMT | US Fed's Bernanke Speech 2013-07-18 23:50 GMT | Japan.

alayoua Posted July 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 19 2013 Bernanke: Too early to say when tapering will start Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke testified before the Congress for a second day on Thursday. While the introductory statement remained unchanged, investors didn't get new insights from the Q&A session before the Senate Banking Committee. When asked about the time the Fed will scale back its monthly bond-buying programme, he said "it's way too early to make any judgment" as the Fed wants to see sustainable improvement in labor markets. Bernanke also said he has broad support for his policy outlook through the Fed leadership. "We've not changed policy. We are not talking about tightening monetary policy", Bernanke said. He added that none of what the Fed has communicated about winding down its bond purchases implies tighter policy in the foreseeable future. Among other remarks, Bernanke said he doesn't see risks to financial stability from student debt, though he said it could have negative economic consequences in the long-term. "It is not particularly likely to cause any sharp instability of the sort we saw in the last few years", Bernanke said Thursday. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/19072013 FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 24h | All.

alayoua Posted July 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 22 2013 Portugal's president backs coalition government Portugal president Aníbal Cavaco Silva on Sunday supported the current coalition government, saying they should stay till end of the term, ending weeks of political crisis in the country, which had led international actors to even threaten the country's €78 billion international bailout. "As the national salvation compromise was impossible to achieve, I consider that the best alternative solution is for the present government to remain in its functions, with reinforced guarantees of cohesion and solidity of the coalition, until the end of its term (in 2015)" Mr. Cavaco said. Further headlines were provided by Bloomberg, with Cavaco saying he "laments talks on ‘National salvation’ agreement failed to produce results", and that "agreement will eventually be imposed by reality in future." Session in the Asia-Pacific to start the week opened with an early move higher in Yen that soon corrected to break even before Tokyo started trading, but then as soon as traders hit the floor the Yen rose again to as high as 99.57 of the USD/JPY pair. The Yen move became in broad USD weakness following Japan PM Abe's upper house win, taking EUR/USD to session highs at 1.3170, AUD/USD to 0.9228, and Cable to 1.5298. Nikkei index opened in the 14750 region but soon eased to break even shy of 14600. Gold and Silver broke higher above key $1300 resistance in case of Gold, while Oil remained above the $108 handle. Local share markets traded mixed with China mainland and Japan in the negative, while Australia and Korea still in the positive. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/22072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-22 07:00 GMT | Stitzerland.

alayoua Posted July 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 23 2013 Bank of Japan stands ready to inject further stimulus The Bank of Japan is prepared to provide further easing to the economy should signs fail to emerge about an economic recovery, including an inflation mandate of 2% in the short-run. According to BoJ board member Takehiro Sato, more stimulus is a real possibility if the economy's recovery is threatened, naming a few risks such as slower-than-expected growth in China. "A high degree of uncertainty remains concerning the global economy, and I see risks to the economic outlook as somewhat tilted to the downside," Sato said. "The BOJ does not exclude the implementation of additional measures and will not hesitate to fine-tune its policies flexibly when unexpected tail risks materialise," Sato added in a speech to business leaders in Fukushima, northeastern Japan. Sato also said the 2% inflation should be seen as a flexible target, subject to change in the 2-year projections, a timeframe which had been repeatedly mentioned by BOJ governor Haruhiko Kuroda in past meetings. "If the inflation rate is projected to stabilise within a certain range, with the median being 2 per cent price growth, the main objective of the bank's policy will have been fulfilled," Sato said. Mr Sato, an economist who joined the BOJ board last year, was nonetheless more optimistic about japan’s economy from a year earlier, saying a recovery was "coming into view", presenting a "window of opportunity" to overcome deflation. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/23072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-23 08:30 GMT | UK.

alayoua Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Jul 26 2013 What does Japan CPI rise mean for the BoJ? In a clear sign of temporary victory by 'Abenomics' radical policies, Japan printed the sharpest rise in core inflation in almost 5 years, with the read out at +0.4% y/y vs 0.3% exp. The rest of indicators were also encouraging. ne of the top priorities by Japan is to end a 15-year deflation cycle, so that the country can start to develop a self-sustaining recovery. In large part, this is the main reason behind the radical ultra-loose monetary policy being currently deployed by the BoJ, which has committed to double the amount the central bank purchases in Japanese government debt. The country will continue to actively assess how these increases in price pressure - still minimal - are having an impact on the mindset of the population, potentially leading to support more credit, spending and rise in salaries. However, as IFR Markets Editor Amanda Tan notes, "a planned sales tax hike in April next year - from 5% to 8% - poses a downside risk to spending & sentiment, particularly if wages don't start to rise." https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/26072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-26 06:00 GMT | Germany.

Japan's most significant fiscal reform in years, that is, a planned hike from 5% to 8% in sales tax by April 2014, faces the prospects of being delayed or watered down as concerns mount the tax increase may do more harm than good to the delicate economic recovery in the country.

The topic of the speech is current issues in economic policy. According to RBA's Stevens, long rise in mining investment is now over, saying that coming fall could be "quite big". Stevens said that easing is working to shift investors to taking some more risk, adding that shift in risk taking not yet a serious impediment to further policy easing. Stevens remained dovish on his tone, saying that "still has some scope to ease after inflation data." On the Aussie value, Stevens wouldn't be surprised if it falls further, as "the fall makes economic sense." https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/30072013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-07-30 09:00 GMT | EMU.

alayoua Posted August 6, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Aug 06 2013 AUD/USD rallies initially after RBA, but a lot of resistance looms The AUD/USD came into the RBA decision very oversold and ready squeeze the bears. Despite the initial pop, technicians say there’s plenty of resistance to conquer before the bulls take control of the macro picture. The initial positive reaction following the RBA’s 25 basis point rate cut appears to be the market weeding out those shorts who were banking on a 50 basis point cut. While nobody knows exactly how much money was being bet against the AUD/USD, but the mercilous selling that led to the extreme oversold readings made it quite apparent that the short-Aussie trade was extremely crowded – and the markets do not treat crowded trades well typically. The good news for bears that were not over-leveraged is that the RBA hinted that they stand at the ready to act further if growth continues to be a problem and inflation remains benign. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/06082013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-08-06 08:30 GMT | UK.

alayoua Posted August 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Aug 07 2013 GBP/USD fading after failed test of 1.5435 level; BOE report looms The GBPUSD runs the risk of cascading lower yet again after it ran up to “correction resistance” and failed. The BOE’s inflation report and Mr. Carney’s appearance before Parliament are sure to create a sharp move. The GBP/USD cross rallied sharply on Dollar weakness following Friday’s jobs report in the US. The bullish tone carried over into Sunday night’s open and continued to stair-step higher until just after Britain’s industrial and manufacturing production numbers were released. Shortly after those numbers came out, the GBP/USD began to sell off – this time in a stair-step pattern in the opposite direction. So far, there is still a chance that the latest bit of selling is just a correction lower leading up to the next thrust higher. But, technicians say that a break below 1.5213 would put out any bullish flame. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/07082013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-08-07 09:30 GMT | Bank of England Quarterly Inflation Report 2013-08-07 09:30 GMT | Mark Carney speaks at UK Parliament 2013-08-07 12:30 GMT | Canada.

alayoua Posted August 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Aug 13 2013 Yen short trade revival subject to Japan's sales tax chatter... By now, the market completes a full trading day in which investors and traders had the opportunity to digest what to make out of Monday's disappointing Japan Q2 GDP data, but most importantly, what might be the implications on the widely covered topic of the sales tax hike. As reported yesterday, the big miss in the Japanese growth figures, displaying a -1% negative deviation from 3.6% expected to 2.6% preliminary data, is not helping the case to implement a planned 3% aggressive increase on the sales tax. Historically, there are well-founded reasons to fear that the economy may face some undesirable headwinds if being too aggressive on a tax hike. Japanese policy-makers are growing more vocal on softer option to take on, including either a more conservative 1% incremental approach on the sales tax, or even delaying the tax hike by one year after Japan's PM Abe Adviser, Mr. Hamada,was quoted earlier yesterday saying "there is no need to hurry with the sales tax hike after the weaker-than-expected Q2 GDP as it might harm the economy." On the flip side, BoJ Chief Kuroda said last week that it is not necessary a delay in the sales tax hike, saying that “ending deflation and raising the sales tax are achievable at the same time.” https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/13082013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-08-13 08:30 GMT | UK Consumer Price Index (YoY) (Jul) 2013-08-13 09:00 GMT | EMU ZEW Survey - Economic Sentiment (Jul) 2013-08-13 12:30 GMT | US Retail Sales (MoM) (Jul) 2013-08-13 14:00 GMT | US Business Inventories (Jun) FOREX NEWS : 2013-08-13 04:54 GMT | GBP/USD working off overbought condition with current pullback 2013-08-13 04:54 GMT | EUR/GBP treading water above 0.86 ahead of UK CPI 2013-08-13 03:56 GMT | EUR/JPY pushed up to fresh new 129.60 highs 2013-08-13 03:42 GMT | EUR/USD ignited on impressive rally ---------------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.3313 LOW 1.32891 BID 1.33032 ASK 1.33032 CHANGE 0.03% TIME 08 : 34:53 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Sideway TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Upwards scenario: Price dip lower yesterday and finally stabilized.

alayoua Posted August 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Aug 14 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Aug 14 2013 Fed’s Lockhart reiterates September reduction in Federal bond buying In news that will certainly resonate through FX Markets, Atlanta Fed President Dennis Lockhart reported that the Federal Reserve could begin reducing its bond-buying stimulus as early as its September meeting – despite inflation still being below its targeted values. One of the more pressing concerns facing investors and policymakers alike is that the U.S. economic performance is too volatile or unstable for Federal Reserve policymakers to initiate their comprehensive plan for both reducing and eventually halting their asset-purchasing program as early as next month. Ultimately though, Lockhart appeared open or receptive to at least a modest pullback in Federal monetary stimulus from its current pace of $85 billion per month. "I wouldn't rule out September," he stated. "As I see it, a decision to proceed - whether it is in September, October, or December - ought to be thought of as a cautious first step." Indeed, U.S. inflation has been running well below the Fed's 2.0% target for some time – historically very low. However Lockhart noted he did not see any signs that deflation was accelerating, reiterating that the current inflationary backdrop would still be consistent with a modest pullback in quantitative easing. https://support.fxcc.com/email/technical/14082013/ FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-08-14 06:00 GMT | Germany.

alayoua Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Aug 15 2013 EUR/USD rips vertically on a 10-minute chart; still vulnerable macro set-up The EUR/USD just ripped straight higher for over 400 pips on non-news related buying. Still, any upside is corrective in nature unless 1.3414 is conquered say technicians. EUR/USD will likely be trading off of US data Thursday Despite the rip higher that just occurred on the intraday chart, the macro picture appears to be setting up for much more downside once this upside correction runs its course. The European markets are closed for the most part Thursday in honor of Ascension Day. http://www.einvestorsforum.com/#sthash.YmmEQouT.dpbs FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-08-15 12:30 GMT | US.

alayoua Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Sep 03 2013 RBA keeps rate at 2.5%, easing bias removal? The Reserve Bank of Australia left rates unchanged at 2.5% record lows, with the Monetary Policy Statement offering some interesting clues, saying "the Board will continue to assess the outlook and adjust policy as needed", omitting a more aggressive narrative seen in last few months. While the door to reduce rates further is not closed, the statement sounds not as dovish as one may have expected, yet the value of the Australian Dollar and domestic indicators will continue to determine the future rate setting. For now, looks like AUD bulls will gain Sept battle. http://blog.fxcc.com/market-analysis FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 2013-09-03 08:30 GMT | UK PMI Construction (Aug) 2013-09-03 09:00 GMT | EMU Producer Price Index (YoY) (Jul) 2013-09-03 12:58 GMT | US Markit Manufacturing PMI (Aug) 2013-09-03 14:00 GMT | US ISM Manufacturing PMI (Aug) FOREX NEWS : 2013-09-03 05:38 GMT | GBP/USD drifting higher for a 3rd session after rough 2 weeks; 1.5587 key hurdle 2013-09-03 05:07 GMT | AUD/USD spikes above 0.9000 after RBA 2013-09-03 04:19 GMT | EUR/USD extends choppy range; remains at 30-day lows 2013-09-03 04:03 GMT | USD/JPY continues to consolidate above 99.00 ------------------------- EURUSD : HIGH 1.31968 LOW 1.31778 BID 1.31800 ASK 1.31804 CHANGE -0.08% TIME 08 : 44:17 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Down trend TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : Medium MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Upwards scenario: Possibility of retracement formation is seen above the yesterday high -1.3227 (R1).

alayoua Posted September 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Forex Technical & Market Analysis FXCC Sep 05 2013 Today's main event is the ECB meeting this afternoon oday’s main event is the ECB meeting this afternoon. In our view, there are fewer arguments for a rate cut today than a month ago, given recent upside surprises in economic indicators and a slower pace of decline in excess liquidity (see ECB Preview: Keep the powder dry). Hence, we expect the ECB to keep rates unchanged and Draghi to refrain from explaining further the forward guidance. The EUR/USD is trading downwards ahead of ECB and G20 meeting, but still remains above its 200-day moving average. Will the EUR/USD finally manage to break its 200-day MA at 1.3144? The pair is under pressure again, after a short relief in Wednesday’s trading session. The global equities rally rounded out by the biggest advance for the US Indexes in two weeks, pushed downwards the American dollar on Wednesday, i.e. the single currency got a small relief yesterday. Still, risk over the next 48 hours is of great significance and should be considered more trend defining. The G20 meeting doesn’t have a definitely positive or negative outcome, but Friday’s NFPs do. For today’s ECB meeting, there are obviously many members of the Governing Council who want to convince the market that rate hikes are still an “illusion”. -FXstreet.com http://blog.fxcc.com/market-analysis FOREX ECONOMIC CALENDAR : 24h All G20 Meeting 2013-09-05 11:00 GMT BoE Interest Rate Decision 2013-09-05 11:45 GMT ECB Interest Rate Decision 2013-09-05 12:30 GMT ECB Monetary policy statement and press conference FOREX NEWS : 2013-09-05 05:36 GMT EUR/USD still under pressure ahead of ECB meeting 2013-09-05 05:34 GMT USD/JPY now at key resistance at 99.94 after rally of the last hour 2013-09-05 04:42 GMT EUR/GBP glued to 0.8450 ahead of BoE & ECB 2013-09-05 04:24 GMT GBP/JPY confined in a tight range EURUSD : HIGH 1.32076 LOW 1.31644 BID 1.31689 ASK 1.31694 CHANGE -0.29% TIME 08 : 44:52 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis Upwards scenario: EURUSD gained momentum on the downside recently and likely will close on the negative territory today. However, clearance of our next resistive structure at 1.3200 (R1) would open way towards to our initial target at 1.3218 (R2) and any further market rise would then be targeting 1.3235 (R3). Downwards scenario: Possible market weakening is protected by important technical level at 1.3157 (S1). Break here is required to open road towards to interim target at 1.3138 (S2) en route to final aim at 1.3119 (S3). Resistance Levels: 1.3200, 1.3218, 1.3235 Support Levels: 1.3157, 1.3138, 1.3119 ------------------------ GBPUSD : HIGH 1.56275 LOW 1.55956 BID 1.56032 ASK 1.56038 CHANGE -0.13% TIME 08 : 44:53 OUTLOOK SUMMARY : Down TREND CONDITION : Downward penetration TRADERS SENTIMENT : Bearish IMPLIED VOLATILITY : High Upwards scenario: Measures of resistance might be activating if the pair approaches 1.5636 (R1) price level. Break here would suggest next interim target at 1.5652 (R2) and If the price keeps its momentum we expect an exposure of 1.5670 (R3). Downwards scenario: Our next support level locates at 1.5593 (S1) mark. Possible penetration below this level would open way towards to next target at 1.5575 (S2) and then final aim lie at 1.5557 (S3) price level.

Further buying interest might occur above the resistance at 100.15 (R1). Our initial targets locates at 100.41 (R2) and 100.66 (R3) Downwards scenario: On the other side, depreciation below the supportive measure at 99.53 (S1) would confirm bearish medium-term tendency and validate our next intraday targets at 99.27 (S2) and 98.99 (S3) in potential. Resistance Levels: 100.15, 100.41, 100.66 Support Levels: 99.53, 99.27, 98.99 Source: FX Central Clearing Ltd,( http://www.fxcc.com ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
