My GBP/USD Trade (21-09-2007) Update.

Hello people. This is the update of my previous open long position on the GBP/USD.

To recap from the previous post-(http://forexnewspaper.blogspot.com/2007/09/my-gbpusd-trade-21-09-2007.html), I went in for a long position at the price line of 2.0109 on [20-09-2007], 12:45am (Singapore Time) and target profit at the price line of 2.0235. My target profit has just been hit today, [24-09-2007] at 9:10am.

That's a 126pips profit :) Not a bad morning to wake up with a bad crap shooting syndrome, aka diarrhoea.

Peace and trade safely everyone...

My GBP/USD Trade (21-09-2007)

*Attached chart, click on it for the enlarged version.

Hi guys. Today, I didn't initiate any trade because I am still holding on to my GBP/USD trade which I initiated from the night before.

Last night, (20-09-2007), I initiated a long position on the GBP/USD at 12:45am (Singapore Time). GBP has more strength against the USD compared to EUR. If I were to buy, I will prefer to buy on GBP/USD compared to EUR/USD.

So, I was waiting for the right moment to enter the market after it ran towards the 200ma in my hourly chart. It had two downclose and I initiated my long position when the second downclose candle touches the 6ma in my hourly chart at the price line of 2.0109. This is a little bit of an aggresive trade.

My stop loss is at 2.0065 (at parabolics) and my target profit that I am looking is at 2.0235 (Near to the high of 14-09-2007). My long position is still open and I am keeping it to see if it can reach my target profit. As of now at 1:55am (Singapore Time), 22-09-2007, the current price is at 2.0190. I am already 81pips in the money.

I will post the outcome of this trade in time to come when I decide to close it or if it reaches my TP and my "OCO" is triggered :)

Peace and trade safely everyone...

EUR climbing towards 1.4100 against USD.

Hello everybody.

The USD extended its loss against its major rivals today on speculations that the Fed may continue to lower fed fund rates in the rest of the year. The EUR touched just below 1.4100 against the USD, while the JPY strengthened to as low as 114.00 against the USD.

The USD index fell to an all-time low at 75.73 yesterday. Interest-rate futures pricing indicated traders see an 80% chance that the Fed may cut a quarter-percentage point to 4.50% on its policy meeting at the end of October.

In the early session, US unemployment claims fell 9k to 311k, beating the estimate of 321k. Philadelphia Fed business conditions index dropped from 0.4% to minus 0.6% in August, below the estimate of minus 0.2%.

Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke today said in a congressional hearing that subprime mortgage delinquencies are likely to rise further, and the Fed is committed to prevent lending problems. He added the market tends to self-correct over time and subprime mortgage market has adjusting sharply. US Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson said the Fed’s move help stabilize market credit crunch.

The USD extended its loss after London’s Daily Telegraph newspaper cited that Saudi Arabia did not lower its interest rates in line with the Fed, though King Abdullah’s advisor said the country will not unpeg its currency from the USD in the near future.

Peace and trade safely everyone...

My USD/JPY Trade (20-09-2007)

*Attached chart, click on it for the enlarged version.

Hello people. USD is really getting whacked upside, downside, sideways and all over the sides :P Hahaha!!! EUR/USD broke through the 1.4000 price line.

Anyway, today, I was looking at the USD/JPY. What attracted me to this particular pair was that I saw the Double-Top being formed and it is slowly crumbling right after. I was looking for any reason to initiate a trade on the downside.

Upon approaching 1:00pm(Singapore Time), market died for awhile and 1:00pm candle broke down. 2:00pm(Singapore Time) was my confirmation but I was still hesitant. I then initiated a short position on this pair at 3:20pm(Singapore Time), price line of 115.47. My stop loss at 115.75, target profit at 114.80(Near to the 200ma in my Hourly chart and 10ma in Daily chart).

My target profit was triggered at 10:25pm(Singapore Time). 67pips profit for this trade.

Peace and trade safely everyone :)

Dollar Recovery from Fed's Rate Cut. (20-09-2007)

Hi guys! Something to share with, for reading purposes :)

The dollar today pared its loss from the Fed’s aggressive rate cut as investors believe the rate cut will help the US economy. The currency fell sharply yesterday after the Feds slashed USD's interest rates by 0.50% yesterday.

US equities gained further today with the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 76.17 to 13,815.56 and the Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose 9.25 to 1529.03 at 4:15 pm. The rally in stock market stimulates carry trades modestly. The yen weakened to above the 116 level against the dollar.

The euro failed to extend beyond the record high at 1.3687 set on as traders sold the euros to protect option bets at 1.40 against the dollar. The pair consolidates in range between 1.3940 and 1.3987.

Earlier in the US session, a bunch of inflation and housing reports came out weaker than expected, supporting the rate cut yesterday. US CPI declined 0.1% in August, below the estimate of an unchanged reading. Excluding food and energy, core CPI rose 0.1%, less than the estimate of 0.2%. US housing starts dropped 2.6% to an annual rate of 1.33 million units in August, while building permits fell 5.9% to 1.307 million units.

Later tonight, 8:30pm (Singapore Time) we will see USD unemployment claims, 10:00pm (Singapore Time) Uncle Bernanke is speaking and at 12:00am (Singapore Time) Philadelphia Fed Manufacturing Index.

The sterling was still under pressure from the liquidity problem in UK banking system due to subprime issue. After Northern Rock was bailed out last week, the Bank of England announced today to allow commercial banks to use mortgages as collateral to borrow via three-month repos. The sterling fell off the high at 2.0172 set Tuesday to the key level at 2 versus the dollar.

EURUSD will face interim resistance at 1.40, followed by 1.4020 and 1.4050. Additional ceilings will emerge at 1.4080, backed by 1.41. Support starts at 1.3950, backed by 1.3930, 1.39 and 1.3880. Subsequent floors are eyed at 1.3850.

USDJPY encounters interim resistance at 116.30, backed by 116.50 and 116.80. Subsequent ceilings will emerge at 117, followed by 117.30 and 117.50. On the downside, support begins at 116 and 115.70, followed by 115.50. Additional floors are eyed at 115.30, backed by 115 and 114.70.

GBPUSD encounters interim resistance at 2.0030, backed by 2.0070 and 2.01. Subsequent ceilings will emerge at 2.0140, followed by 2.0170 and 2.02. On the downside, support begins at 2, followed by 1.9980 and 1.9950. Additional floors are eyed at 1.9930, backed by 1.99 and 1.9870.

My GBP/USD Trade (19-09-2007)

*Attached chart, click on it for the enlarge version.

Greetings people. Today, I was kind of forcing myself to be patient with the market :P It seriously started off slow today and I have to trade with a clear mind after my trade last night on the EUR/USD :P Hahaha!!!

Anyway, today, I was analysing the EUR and the GBP and I saw that the GBP was weaker compared to the EUR. At 3:00pm (Singapore Time), the candle was forming into a big downclose candle, a big bearish engulfing! I initiate a scalping short position on the GBP/USD at the price line of 2.0101 at 3:40pm (Singapore Time). Target profit at 2.0060 (23ma at the point of time) and stop loss at 2.0121. Risk reward ratio of around 1:2.

My target profit was triggered at 4:40pm (Singapore Time) with a profit of 41pips for this trade while I was at Singapore Post Office :)

Peace and trade safely everyone...

My EUR/USD Trade (19-09-2007)

*Attached chart, click on it for the enlarge version.

Hello people. My biggest trade today. You may call it a crazy trade as well. I was planning not to initiate any trade before the Fed's announcement on USD's Interest Rate Statement at 2:15am (Singapore Time).

But let me tell you the story, I can't sleep due to my stupid flu and my blocked nose. Irritating the crap out of me. So I was looking at the charts and I saw something really beautiful and I just can't help it.

EUR is definately having some strength against the USD and at the end of 11:00pm (Singapore Time), it formed into a doji. Taking into consideration that at 8:00pm (Singapore Time), it jumped a little followed by tiny down close at 9:00pm (Singapore Time) and 10:00pm (Singapore Time).

I just couldn't help it but initiate a long position at the price line of 1.3870 at the beginning of the 12:00am (Singapore Time) candle. I am not trading the news but the signal was just so beautiful and from 12:00am (Singapore Time), I was looking at the charts like a hawk till my nose became unblocked due to my heart rate pumping so fast :P Hahahaha!!!

Since the first immediate resistance level is at 1.3920, I put my target profit at 1.3970 (It is my next immediate resistance level based on my own analysis) and stop loss at 1.3855. I was looking at it very closely and here comes 2:15am (Singapore Time). I tell you, watching the market move was like looking at fireworks. I was so excited that I almost forgot that I had an open position. My apologies to those trader friends that I was continuosly message and bugging them while the market moved :P Hahaha!!!

Anyway, to cut my long story short, my target profit was triggered with 100pips profit and that is US$1000 based on 10mini lots. Just a word of caution, this kind of trade is not good for the faint hearted :P Before I end, the FED's actually took a rate cut till 4.75% from their previous interest rate of 5.25%. Thank you market for showing me an early signal to enter :P Hahaha! Wooohoooo!!!

Peace and trade safely everyone...

My EUR/JPY Trade (18-09-2007)

*Attached chart, click on it for the enlarge version.

Hi guys. One of my trades today, this one is on the crosses, the EUR/JPY. Initiated this trade at 2:50pm (Singapore Time). I saw that there was a good support at the price line of 158.79 and the candle bounce after it touches that price line. So I went in for a range trade.

I initiated a long position at the price line of 159.09. Stop loss at 158.80 and target profit at 159.60. My target profit was hit at around 4:35pm (Singapore Time). That's a 51pips profit for this trade :)

Peace and trade safely everyone...

EUR ECON: Italian July IP -0.4%m/m vs. Revised -0.6% In June

Italian SA industrial production recorded another fall in July by 0.4% m/m against market expectations of a rise by 0.3%. Annually it declined by 0.5%. The dip follows already very poor data published for June with production falling by 0.6% m/m (revised) and 0.1% y/y.

ISTAT reported a fall in intermediate and energy goods by 1.5% and 0.5% respectively which drove the fall in industrial production. As expected consumer goods were up 0.5% in July after dipping in June by 1.8%. Note that there were 22 working days in July 2007 against 21 the same month last year.

FX OPTIONS: More High Strike EUR/USD Barrier Options

A few more high strike EUR/USD barriers were put on in London and New York market Thursday. These include 27 August 1.4600 One Touch, which traded 41.5 vs TV 46.75 on a EUR 5mln Payout. Closer in - a 15 Nov 1.4300 One touch traded 34.75 vs TV 37.5 on EUR 4mln payout. 1.4000 remains a massive barrier level - with more than EUR 20mln expiring late next week alone, with plenty more to follow over next few months.

USD/JPY: Credit Squeeze Again Filters Through To the Yen Pairs

A swift 100-point drop in USD/JPY overnight as news of BoE emergency lending hit the screens. GBP/JPY tumbled from 234.80 highs to 231.10 with stops tripped all the way from 234.00 through 232.00.

The cross eventually based and a short squeeze through late Asia provided Europe with better selling levels. This move for the cross was mirrored by the spot market with USD/JPY peaking at 115.50 and basing at 114.50.

Japanese investment accounts have again been busy on the buy side and were reportedly picking up good amounts of Dollars from 114.55-60. The Dollar has climbed back above 115.00 and is again looking to test the resolve of option related offers, which are reportedly mixed in with exporter and Asian speculative sellers.

A small knock back from 115.39 has been seen as London players get their chance to react to the Northern Rock news. The Market is looking like 114.50 to 115.50 with the 115.00 level likely to attract and pivot price ahead of the North American session.

My EUR/JPY Trade (13-09-2007).

*Click on the picture for the enlarge version.

Hi guys. Today, I was looking at the EUR/JPY. Actually, I was looking at all the four majors but I feel a little adventurous today, want to feel some crosses today.

At 4pm(Singapore Time), I initiated a long position at the price line of 159.26. Why did I want to buy? Because the 3pm(Singapore Time) candle broke out of the consolidation. So I went in to buy with target profit at 159.60(High of 31st August) and stop loss at 159.00(6ma in 15mins chart).

My target profit was hit at 5:19pm(Singapore Time) at a profit of 34pips :)

My EUR/USD Trade (12-09-2007)

*Click on the chart for the enlarge version.

Hi guys. Market has been a total jerk nowadays after the run from last week's USD Non-Farm Payroll.

Nonetheless, so far, I have only have made short trades this week. Didn't dare to keep a long one. Today, one of my short trades on the EUR/USD. Initiated the trade at 1:00pm (Singapore Time). What I saw was at 12:00pm (Singapore Time) candle formed into a mini bullish engulfing and plus sentiments that I saw from the last two days is that the EUR is execptionally strong against the USD, just refusing to go down and climbing up slowly.

I went in for a long position at the opening of the 1pm (Singapore Time) candle at the price line of 1.3846. My target profit was at 1.3870 and stop loss at 1.3836. My target profit was hit at 1:22pm (Singapore Time) with a profit of 24pips. That is US$240 based on 10 mini lots.
