and look at the difference in the dynamics 5 years on my friends

in 2007 the GBP was king and the Yen,USD and CHF languished in the south as the Dow conquored all

and in 2012.. we see the the USD and Yen are strong (?) ....with no clear supercurrency .....and a fading Euro (and thats before they print money)

boyoboy do things change ....eh ?

back on history again !

heres the corrie on a monthly 150ma setting ..I cant set it higher as I lose the history/charts

Again look at how the Yen and USD feed the Dow rises up to 2007 / & Dow feeds the YEN & USD falls..........this carry trade is a self fulfilling prophecy :smart:

now we see the 2008 shunt and Yen gets more of a kick north than USD in that move.....so they become a little less re-aligned than 2002...

but now look closely at the last 5 years .....is it my eyes or have the USD and Yen worked less south on this Dow climb ?

the Yen certainly has .....it hasnt been the mega carry trade like the 2002-2008 move .........sure USD has been hit ......but as much ?

what does this all mean ...............well something and nothing ......its up to us to find rhyme and reason and see if that gives clues for future patterns !

Ive been playing this correlation / Strengthmeter game now since the mid 2000's and I am still learning every day

Currency dynamics and relationships move in and out of patterns all the time ....if you can understand even a small percentage of whats happening it gives you a better edge

but you need tools like the FXcorrelator to do it ......👍

good hunting today :smart:

Well I started the Week looking for the Dow to consolidate south after its recent rises

I was ok monday but yesterday ....boyoboy !

Dow is still on the hunt north......its barely a hundred points of all time stardom again (2007) see last post

so I suppose i have to give ground and say that until this changes I have to be bearish on the dynamic Duo of USD and YEN

now watch the market prove me wrong....!

but in truth all this bullish optimism can only last so long......

more bites north for Dow recently ....but a little respite at the moment

I cannot believe how much the euro (blue) is getting to the top of the pack recently on this 20ma setting....

i,m watching an E/U sell below 1.2883 ish...

i need the Dow to stall a bit south to confirm

we have Strong Dow and Strong USD on the 15m's ....I need to see which one is right !

 

[NVP]

or the A/U below 1.0453 ish.I need the Dow to stall ....

 

[NVP]

buckle up...here she comes

 

[NVP]

stand down .....signals are easing off

 

[NVP]

game on now again guys ....buy USD and YEN

 

[NVP]

frustrating .....not as much action as I thought ...tighten up as its gonna retrace ....

 

[NVP]

watch the G/U now above 1.6105 ....I think the Dow is going to track a little north again

 

[NVP]

all flat again ........step down

gotta scoot .....handful of pips today as not been trading much .....

Later
