First, I appreciate your respectful reply. Many others wouldn't have taken the time to read a reply vs spit out some combative rhetoric just for the sake of hearing themselves speak. Second, I'll be the first to admit that I am not an economic PhD. ...

FWIW, there are very few news outlets which aren't wrong as much as right. Total cliche I know (and, I'm probably being generous on the 50/50 ratio). Throw enough headlines at the wall, and something sticks. Worst case, people forget what you said ...

Good thing you don't work for the FED....that would scare the **** out of the markets. So, are to put a wager on that comment? Bookmark this post and come post the old "See? I told you so!" on December 31st. (for what it's worth, I won't be coming ...

Well, the markets are putting some pressures on the new guy today. But if a rout taking place presently. For those of us who have been waiting for a huge pop (with our "gambling" funds), let's hope this is a walk softly and carry a big stick type ...

That it's not remotely close to the FED's purview.....and even further from being possible in the present political climate. In short, that it's not going to happen any time soon (if ever). So, we continue to trade with what we've got

The numbers would suggest your anecdote is becoming more widespread. Confidence DECLINED since last month....just not as much as consensus thought it would. If you look, these levels are low vs. historical data. Take a look at the graph from ...

The big question is: are the forex moves across the board indicative of a world comparing two potential US presidential candidates and making assumptions about election outcomes based on their stage presence....

If it quickly pushes to 162-163 in the next 30 minutes, welcome the intervention with a reversal back to 158ish instantly....otherwise, another smackdown day for the /6j

What, you mean YOUR portfolio can't withstand that amount of drawdown? :-P

Nah, that would be too logical to make sense......right???? Amazing how the obvious answer is often overlooked when some headlines start rolling in and people don't care to look beyond the bold text. That's not to say intervention can't happen, but ...

Haha. Well stated. Folks here like to complain....but I would be interested to see how many of them have positions on (and of what size) to justify their commentary. Such is the way though: loudest voices are often the most insignificant ...

Perhaps, but if willing to take a bet on some decent sized moves, now (at these new, psychological and technical thresholds) is much better time than 2 weeks ago.... From a charting perspective, extension is probably supposed to happen after a ...

There has been a discrepancy in the indices for MONTHS though. Calling for a reset is a bit like saying "it is going to rain today", 200 days in a row. Eventually it will. The Nasdaq and s&p (futures) were up nearly 18 and 15% respectively on the ...

18,000 /6j contracts traded this morning in one 5-minute bar. Someone did SOMEthing to arrest the move toward 160....but it certainly wasn't big enough for any extended reversal.

However one feels about the political rhetoric and/or timing of such announcement(s), the basis of your argument isn't quite accurate. Technically, you CAN make housing more affordable, at least in the short term (which is all anyone who wants to ...

Ah, haha fxstreet updated their article after posting (so we can't blame ff for everything here)...."This story was corrected on June 24 at 03:40 GMT to say "verbal intervention by the Japanese authorities" in the first paragraph, not just ...

I think the inference that an intervention took place this evening is misleading. Volume doesn't even exist to show large blocks of trades let alone governmental intervention. Credibility diminished for sure among those who are reading the headline. ...

Aside from the fact that the majority of posters here probably (comedically?) feel the US economy is in shambles presently, Biden can't win that argument easily though...if it went bad, Trump could have said "you screwed it up". If it went well, ...

Me too....but I have been smoking THAT "hopium" for a long time now. Don't see it coming unless the bulls pop the pair up over 160 and spark another intervention before the European market opens. My unofficial odds of that occurring? 0.005% "So ...

Yep. Up, up, up......until it goes down. I imagine most institutional $$ is waiting for confirmation of (or getting "closer" to) the first rate cuts. Until then though....
