Unfortunately, my comp will be down for a few weeks so no more updates. I will be back and anyone who has my e-mail should just contact me through there.

Markets have continued to slow down as we go into Friday. I don't think we will get much movement tomorrow so this is going to be the last post of the week. The GBP spiked above the 1.68 level and I got stopped out of my short. Price has dropped ...

Unfortunately yesterday's suggestion on the GBP proved accurate and we saw a big move back up to 1.68 on a rather nice set of unemployment numbers. A lot tends to be made of individual data points but this one really does look important. After the ...

Again, work got in the way so sorry readers. Enough time has now elapsed for us to begin tracking the actual performance achieved to date. I wasn't recording right from the start, although I have the records of my trading account, as I was too busy ...

Apologies to all for not posting on Friday, work got in the way. It was quite fortunate I didn't post as the market continues to move contrary to my expectations. The EUR continued to show strength, the NZD whipsawed wildly, the USD continued to ...

Yesterday was a bloodbath for my book. My long USD position got slaughtered in every area. Part of this was poor positioning (GBPUSD), part of this was a hedge (AUDUSD), and the final part was, in my view, unjustified by fundamentals (USDJPY). The ...

The weakness of the USD has come back to bite me again and the strength of the EUR meant that my AUD hedge fell apart completely as well. The big news should have been the BOJ but this was actually pretty uneventful. Kuroda was definitely quite ...

As news was quite light today and I had commented late last night I thought it would be pointless to really comment earlier. We still haven't had many interesting moves. The big news today was German IP. This was a bit stronger than expected so we ...

EUR: The ECB meeting was the focus of attention and expectations were met with no change in interest rates and a dovish tone from Draghi. Nonetheless, EUR sold off. I stuck with my AUD short which was, despite the weakness of the AUD through the ...

The long USD position went wrong today obviously, only stopped out in USDCAD though. I don't see much reason to change my view on the dollar, like the GBP construction PMIs reported earlier this week...it wasn't that the numbers were bad, just less ...

The big news today is NFP. Markets expect to see more improvement in the US economy with the unemployment rate falling to 6.6% and NFP increasing 200k. With my USDCAD position I am also watching the CAD employment data which reports at the same ...

Today we have the ECB meeting. Interest rate markets are pricing a 3.8% chance of a cut. I think foreign exchange markets are looking for some action but won't get it. I expect that Draghi's speech later in the day will be more interesting and I am ...

Major news today is USD ADP Non-farm Employment. On average, the USD looks unchanged. I think expectations are high and the market is looking for more positive news to buy into. The USDJPY has done well, I think this was more a technical move than ...

The most interesting move yesterday was in the USDJPY, I bought on the retracement to 103 and we are now sitting at intermediate highs. I have been trying to buy the dollar against everything and have been too early every time. The JPY is really a ...

The EUR has shown strength this morning after CPI data with more important numbers through the week. Traders are taking this opportunity to squeeze bears as the CPI wasn't as bad as expected, although it certainly wasn't particularly good either. It ...

GBP: Last week saw the reversal of the prevailing trend in GBPUSD. Price broke through the 1.66 level on strong retail sales. Price struggled to move higher after crossing this level but found support on the re-test. The GBP is also trading at ...

Selling more EURAUD on a nice hourly pin. The same pattern is up on the AUDUSD too, I think the EURUSD presents a slightly better option. The sentiment on the EUR is definitely worse and I think the current rally isn't really sustainable. Confidence ...

The CAD is continuing to show a great deal of strength and the USDCAD trade was stopped out. There is a lot of CAD data upcoming next week, as well as NFP, which should break the chop that we are seeing at the moment. I continue to be sceptical ...
