I agree with you that PBOC has an increasing influence and the FED is running out of options. However, its still quite likely they the fed will implement some form of QE2. Do you think they wont do QE2??

Sarmad, please dont be offensive. I disagree with you entirely, the euro (800+pips trade) was one of Ashrafs best calls since I follow him, maybe you should have had your stop-losses much more wider and trusted his euro call.... I only got about 300pips from this trade.

Anyway.. no reason to be spreading the guilt or being offensive. I recommend you review YOUR mistakes... Ashraf is not going to trade FOR YOU. You must put an effort yourself.

I wonder how the CPI figures will play out in relation to re-enforcing or dampening the QE2 trade.
(from most top to bottom: most helpful scenarios for QE2)

Core CPI: DOWN / Non-Core CPI: DOWN
Core CPI: DOWN / Non-Core CPI: FLAT
Core CPI: FLAT / Non-Core CPI: FLAT
Core CPI: DOWN* / Non-Core CPI: UP*
Core CPI: UP / Non-Core CPI: UP

The most interesting of these would be (and in my opinion the most likely) the fourth case. Due to the increase in food and energy. Its interesting because pitching that you want to create inflation when people are already starting to feel the pinch might not be politically correct and could postpone or reduce the QE2 effort.
