At the Close. CHF, Gold...and something else. 18:43CET It (perhaps) is going to be the story of the year-end. EUR/CHF new record lows day after day are evidencing that there is at least one cross of real interest to blood-seekers and that they are willing to do anything in their power to push...

At the Open. It's crosses time. 09:45CET Good morning everyone, hope you are fine. Just few days before Christmas time, but the market is showing some of its cards already. CHF and JPY crosses are the main dominant factors of the market at the moment, with EUR/CHF and EUR/JPY being the 2...

At the Close. The CHF star shining bright. 18:34CET The Swiss players are pushing their currency higher this afternoon in another impulse to new record highs vs the EUR and near all-time lows vs USD, and this is the main FX topic for the time being. The other pairs seem to be dancing at the...

At the Open. Ready for action on EUR crosses? 09:23CET Good morning everyone, hope you are fine. I didn't believe much the new record low in EUR/CHF and that has proven to be a very short-lived case, for the unit has bounced around 100 pips to current 1.2850, indicating that perhaps the worst...

At the Close. USD bounce. 19:45CET A good technical USD rebound on the back of the earlier comments mentioned here that the USD was getting rather oversold vs the CHF. It has been the USD/CHF surge of around 100 pips what has caused the USD to gain vs the majors, sinking the GBP (EUR/GBP...

At the Open. Techs in play again. 09:25CET Good morning everyone, hope you are fine. It is good to see the techs playing their part on most of the majors (we'll leave the USD/CHF aside for the time being), and find that yesterday's rise in EUR/USD may've just been a new bear trap to get as...

At the Close. USD selling continues. 18:18CET The selling of the USD continues at good speed and the Euro got close to 1.35 today amid global EUR buying across the board. USD/CHF and EUR/CHF are also good indicators of the situation, i.e., that the CHF acting as a safe-haven currency is...

Weekly Market Analysis 11:32CET The new chapter of my longer-term piece of analysis, prepared for broker investors-europe.com is now available at the following link. Hope you find it useful. http://www.investors-europe.com/content/analysis/74/index.html

At the Open. USD under pressure. 09:47CET Good morning everyone, hope you are fine. Like yesterday, the USD has started the day under some pressure (although less than what we saw yesterday)and has posted new intraday lows vs the Europeans, although, as I said, nothing dramatic at the moment...

At the Close. Heavy USD selling. 18:30CET Well, choosing the title for this closing post hasn't been much difficult, as we are in the middle of a fast USD selling across the board, with the early indications given by the AUD/USD when it broke above 0.99 quickly followed by EUR/USD, gaining...

Trade Idea: Buy GBP/USD @ market 1.5735, stop 1.5715 target 1.5775 (sent in real-time via twitter - ctainvestor) 14:29 CET We are seeing a clear double base in Cable which may target the high-end of today's range if confirmed, so we're taking the long position with stop on a break of the range...

11:05CET The levels are based on 1hr charts and are only valid for the day. OB means overbought and OS means oversold. These levels are indication of possible turning points or at least levels where the prevailing trend might be halted, ideal for fast contra-trading. In my twitter page...

At the Open. Looking for a trigger. 09:47CET Good morning everyone, hope you are fine. After a few days of direct-USD market, we may have the crosses playing a bigger role and impact on FX prices from now on. I am basically referring to the EUR crosses, who have been lethargic for the last...

At the Close. I'll keep it on Gold shorts for now. 18:22CET It's been a rather dull day in the FX arena, although we've seen some good USD selling across the board that have helped the situation stabilize quite a bit. EUR/USD has printed a 1.3150 high, along with the other majors spiking vs...

At the Open. EUR recovery across the board. 09:33CET Good morning everyone, hope you are fine. Nice technical EUR recovery across the board, pretty much what I was expecting for yesterday (you know, for Tuesday being a usually USD-selling day, enough of that rule of thumb, anyway...), but glad...
