Don't Forget the Yen

Much ado about USD rebounds during falling markets, but JPY strength still outperforms USD.

@Chloe: For what it's worth, I have an order in for 1.6239. Bit of a punt really.

I usually get in far too early and far too low for these shorts.

usd/jpy remains pressured below 89.50. Not good news for Pablo and Big Richard.

Hey BigDick,

Please do me a favour and change your username. i don't really care if it's your nickname because your name is Richard and you are a big guy, but there are billion other ways you can identify yourself w/out possibly offending some people on this forum. And I will give decency & good taste priority over Freedom of expression (and names).

Thanks for your understanding.

Ashraf

@Chloe: FOMC appears to be Wed 27th Jan @ 1915 (GMT I think) "FOMC Rate Decision".

I don't know if they wrap it up in clever words, or it's just a number release.

That was from another calendar. Just had a look at "ours" and it is:

"18:15 US Fed Interest Rate Decision" also tomorrow, Wed 27 Jan.

I don't know if it's strictly speaking the FOMC that announces the decision, or what, but then what do I know. To know that sort of thing I need a big salary with bonuses.... :-)


On the Forex Factory calendar we have (same day):
7:15pm USD FOMC Statement
7:15pm USD Federal Funds Rate

Also speech by Geithner at 3pm. Those last 3 times are GMT I think.

So, be on the alert from at least 3pm onwards! :-)

Thanks Chloe-that guy Big Dick Pablo is a trip. he's clearly the same person (Big Dick and Pablo).

Anyway, onto something constructive: Always check Ashraf's economic calendar:http://www.ashraflaidi.com/economic-calendar/
