    Who's short on the EUR/USD?

    Well here is the long and short of it (pun intended)... The EUR/USD is sitting 10 pips below the 38.2% Fib on the daily chart. Now before all you EUR shorts get too excited, lets take a look at the underlying move. I mentioned earlier that the EUR/USD is down more on USD weakness than EUR...

    Update: This morning saw mostly lackluster price action across the board with a couple exceptions. The EUR/AUD short went my way a few pips but then reversed and could not recover after weak US housing data. While I am still bullish AUD, I took my 28 pip stop which was just above a small level...

    Strong EUR or weak USD?

    You do make a valid point there. With a flip-flop fed and a media that tells us how we are supposed react to the news nothing that comes out of either of them surprise me. I think we may see a correction from what I think was an overreaction but still look for USD weakness and AUD strength...

    Strong EUR or weak USD?

    Money's been going into the higher yielding currencies for months. I think 1.0750 will be tested from what I can see with a boat load of USD bulls set to short at that level...Whether 0750 holds or not I can't say but I think that level will be tested... To put it another way...I wont be...

    Strong EUR or weak USD?

    I guess I should say the reason the EUR is up is NOT because of a demand for EUR. I really don't care which way it goes as long as it goes somewhere..I'm curious by nature and like to have an idea of what the underlying reason for the move is... I'd be careful being long EUR/USD if it gets to...

    Strong EUR or weak USD?

    Hi Guys...I really wasn't talking about todays "FOMC" move...I think that was priced in already..Money has been flowing out of USD and JPY since mid December. The commodity currencies are up because they are strong AND money is flowing out of USD and JPY....EUR is up for one reason...That was...
