I think so as well the u/j held firm & finished the day only slightly negative even with all the other yen crosses getting hit hard.

If not a full deal at the very least a partial deal will be reached basically a bandaid to buy time till a full deal is reached. This would keep the Eur/usd sideways to slightly bullish with the occasional sell off on any negative political ...

If you look in Eur/usd Thread I posted the same exact thing earlier I feel the markets will stay sideways until FC is out of the way, but once it's resolved & do expect a pop to the upside which of course will be followed by a pullback.

If you think it will be resolved before years end short is not the side you want to be on. E$ rallies on positive news out of the US. USD is a safe haven currency so when there negative news in US markets its a flight to safety when the news is ...
