Last two weeks has brought us some serious developments in the world of currency trading and even financial markets as a whole. First, the week before, FED cut interest rates by 0.75%, which was the biggest single cut in 30 years. This Wednesday, in its regularly scheduled meeting, discount rate was slashed another 0.50%. Some financial journalists called this sequence "unprecedented".
US dollar got sharply weaker right after the announcement, only to reverse just as strongly for the rest of the day. All that was followed by even more USD weakness.
By late Friday, dollar has been regaining some ground against the European currencies.
Not so against NZD and AUD though, as they finished sharply to the upside.
All this brings an interesting question. Will these 2 currencies continue up, because of very large interest rate differential between them and USD? Dollar based carry trade of sorts? We don't think so, but it is certainly a possibility.
All this choppiness didn't do well for our systems, which had a soft week.

Last week's results. |
Last week we were looking at a potential trade in USD-JPY. Plan was to BUY at 108.00 with a target of 110.00. As you can see, our entry price has not been reached.
This set up is still valid so we keep our BUY order active. |
| Trade of the week. |  |
Few weeks ago we were looking at long position in EUR-CHF. That trade never happened, as the price kept moving lower and our entry was not reached. We are taking another look here. This pair has seen large daily ranges lately. Swiss Franc has been very strong, but looks like time has come for some correction.
Our set up is to buy at 1.6193 with a target of 1.6450. We are using intermediate term charts and expect 2-3 weeks for this trade to work itself out. |
