Euro's Dead Cross

EURUSD's downtrend is now confirmed after its 50-day MA has fallen below its 100-day MA, strengthening the bearish technical signal with an already deteriorating fundamental foundation.

sydney, markets rallied so USD slipped off a bit. Also, Greeke bond sale went very well so that was reason why euro rose YESTERDAY. but i did say yesterday that euro resistance was limited at 1.42. 1.38 is still my objective/

SYDNEY,

i suggest you do follow me on twitter.com/alaidi and download tweetdeck which would have ENABLED YOU TO GET MY ALMOST REAL TIME INSIGHTS AND ANALYSIS ABOUT WHATS GOING ON THE MARKET. YES, I DO POST IMTs but theyre not as frequent nor as current as the tweets.

Also, do we think Governor King will be talking the pound up, down, or neutrally?

@Ashraf: Do you expect the IFO report(s) to have much effect on EUR/USD?


What might the probability be that cable will spike much above 1.63 in the event of better than expected UK GDP?

Thanks.

Zwan thanks

Karan, do not sell any more. there is a risk that cable will rally towards 1.63 in event of UK GDP coming in better than -3% y/y do NOT add to GBP shorts. 1.6300-1.6350 resistance is here to stay in the event we do see a strong GDP.


FTSE-100, Dow-30 & S&P500 will attempt in regaining their 50-day MAs at 5356, 10452 and 1114 respectively but the resistance is quite robust in these levels.

Hi Ashraf,

Seems like cable is rising in anticipation of the GDP.
Do you see a drop despite the positive GDP results?
Also, do you see the Dow recovering beyond 10300
and the FTSE beyond 5300?


Thanks,
Karan

Maria,

As the Goldman-backed Cable Cartel is out in force offering eur/gbp, the euro is in big trouble and ripe to meet Ashraf's targets, all at the expense of gbp shorts.
