I was harsh to you earlier, last year. But I see you are a long-term trader. You got my respect, I think your analyzes are fully fundamental and might be very correct.

Good luck to you.

@ catnip I am long eur/jpy and eur/usd as well.....@ horrible levels! where do you see euro recovery capped at? if greece is able to meet its bond obligations on Thursday, do you see the euro recovering? also, taking into consideration the USDX's 6 month streak, do you see it rising further?

I am long EUR too ...even EURJPY long. Gold showed signs of a top there short squeeze might have happened and indeed if everyone is short EUR it shouldn't drop much lower for now. Also UST 10 y note future is maximally overbought. However longer term EUR target is 1.21 at first.

Gosh Ashraf - You're too good for your own calls! Blowing through all your targets! Thanks for everything - much appreciated. I may just go all in selling Euro - targeting parity! We'll see. Have a great weekend.

My theory since 2008:

1- risk collapses as liquidity contracts and corportate insolvencies are fears

2 - markets collapse

3- central banks come in and rescue

4 - investors starts to regain confidence and pile in money

5 - risk becomes overbought over a short period

6 - the dirty work of the central bank starts to show

7 - risk collapses

8 - who will sort out the debts and fiat issues now?

9 - markets and risk decline over a longer period as investors find little reason to take much risk as there APPEARS to be no remedy for the disease in the system

10 - result is above average inflation and wage stagnation and higher taxes

11 - economies barely improve and unemployment remains high for several more years

EUR/USD to bounce up next week. Then further downfall to 1,20. Hard resistance there.
Then further downtrend to below 0.96 before 2012.
