A related article today at DailyFX: "Oil, Gold and Silver to Fall if Risk Appetite Sours After ECB Rate Decision" http://bit.ly/hGqB7M
My own thinking is that an ECB rate hike will affect bond yields across the short and long ends of the yield curve, hence "cost of equity capital" rates go up which is negative for equity valuations. The Euro economy is over 15 trillion dollars so any slowdown in euro growth even by fractions of a % can affect commodity prices.

30 yr bonds made move down expected for today. I need to see the wave B low taken out at 118'05 to validate my count. Current price 119'05. Move to new low below 116'26 ultimately expected.

NZDUSD never looks back. Tested the feb high today and shyed away for the time being. Right now we have a triple top in place at the 7800/7820 level. Well overdue some kinda ret.

Gold a knats whisker shy of my 1466 level. Silver difficult to read having exceeded all targets. Trailing stop have to take care of position.

CL makes a new high as expected but shy of my target level and now we are seeing some considerable divergences. Not helped by inventory # today but I may get flat soon.

Chloe, I am watching audusd and the ret back up on 60 min t/f made exact 100%sym so could be in for another down move to lower low below 1.0287. But that low also made 100% potential sym which was suggestive end of a correction. Jury out at mo. If it moves back up above the 0416 high I shall be a buyer again. If it moves down much I might be a scalper.

As to fading junkie, we all learn by constant repetition receiving punishment. Mkt is good teacher but very saw ass from kick ass before we see daylight. Sorry to be patronising.

We can expect continued volatility on EU etc for next 24 hrs.
