Speculators' Futures FX Positions

The weekly figures on traders' futures commitments obtained from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange's International Monetary Market shed valuable light on the developing flows pursuing one currency versus another.

Houram, I did the only thing wrong at that time in October 2007. Didn't sell my stocks.. And then in spring 2008 I didn't take the oportunity to think more about the market. Summer and autumn 2008 I really fucked up, listening to my brokers about how Norway would suprise the world with their NOK and oil going up.
I was quite unlucky with all trades and it all went really bad.
Maybe it was a meaning to it all. However, loosing so much as I did, it has been difficult to understand.
Good to hear that Mister Ashraf saved you from the same "accident" as mine.
Commodity currencies.. well, how long do you think this volatility will last? All experts have different opinions on how the future will look, short-term and long-term.
Anyway, I am ordering Ashrafs book now!

Good luck to you too.

FXHandler, I remember attending a CMC Market seminar held by Ashraf in summer 2007 in Vancouver and he told us all that the US will have sub mortgage problems that will cause the financial crisis, Euro will go up against $ and.... Again in January 2008 at another seminar he said that when the $ hits 1.60 in the summer, it will head south again. He was also bullish on gold. I was lucky to attend those seminars and save my wealth that I had earned through hard working and not listening to my broker who was so blind.
Anyway, the future forex predictions .... I would listen to Ashraf and his book, the commodity currencies in the long term will win.
Good Luck

Ashraf, The King

I wished I knew about you before. It would have given me the opportunity to save my money in 2007(as I predicted, but I was stupid to listen to my "wannabe brokers")....
Anyway, from now on, I will listen to you and you will be my guidance through these times.
Sure man, it would be a blast to meet you guys! I am in it!

Anyway, I still don't see any clear predictions from your Forex-guys of the future..... Will it all go further downn or what? EUR/USD? Bearish sentiment? What do you guys think? 1930 again?

Answers really apreciated.

By the way, Laidi, YOU ARE STILL THE KING!

regards

qin day trading is not what i do. i am more interested in longer term trends and thats what i study. day trading gives very little insight into longer term in my opinion but obviously a good money maker.

fair enough but at that point it also reached 1.415 after i posted but i never said anything.

but we will see who is laughing when the dollar index rises quite nicely to year end. remember not many are so bullish on the dollar and even if they are they expect a small shortlived bounce
