Yield Curves, FX & LIBOR Trends

Medium term trends indicate the US yield curve is ready for a major break out at the expense of the USD, while LIBOR trends offer more downside room for GBP.

Hi Ashraf

Due to the fact that AUDUSD has broken 0.90 do you think there is going to be a major retracement
and also how far do you think it will go up over 3 to 6 months

Thanks for your opinion regards

Hey Ashraf,

This is some risk rally! And I wonder how Shanghai will contribute when they get back. Anyhow, can you give time-frames, targets, and or thoughts about the direction of USD/CAD? Thanks a lot.

14raj, thanks for your comment --- I would guess that if the 1.0650 support is broke that it will continue down, though I suppose 1.0620 may be considered an "overshoot".

Rob.
its my personal view...in USDCAD, a good upward bounce should be there from 1.0620 range. But range breakout bit impossible to speculate.

Will this pair ever break out of this range? 1.1100- 1.0650? And if so, which way first? Or perhaps these levels will simply provide solid resistance and support to trade through the range?

Any thoughts anyone?

If time permits, check out "daily" GBP/JPY chart (at least) back to Sep. '08. - - Looks to me like EVERYtime GBP/JPY formed a hammer, it closed at a higher level the next day. IMT 20 min. ago - "GBP/JPY eyes 144.90-.00" from current 143.35...

Ahh, disregard last comment as here is Ashraf's tweet regarding the topic; if you haven't read it: "might see some USD weakness after G7 statement didnt specify USD but careful from additional behind scenes remarks $USDCHF"

Hi everyone,

Since the G-7 avoided weak dollar criticism, the "consensus" seems to be that the dollar will trend lower. Any thoughts out there?
