Profitable Week So Far

Investors have moved to less-defensive positions amid signs of a Ukraine de-escalation. Russia’s apparent pullback led to some relief in the market and risk appetite drove the U.S. dollar lower and risk assets higher. We were able to book some good profits with our buy position in the EUR/USD, our sell position in the GBP/USD and last but not least our buy position in the DAX that surged by more than 3 percent from our entry level.

Today, the FOMC minutes at 19:00 UTC will be closely watched. If the minutes are perceived as hawkish, the dollar could soar against other counterparts.

Forex, DAX And Crypto Trading Ideas 15/2/22

The ebb and flow of haven demand due to the Ukraine standoff weighed on the U.S. dollar. The greenback slightly strengthened against the euro and pound while our yesterday’s short positions in both EUR/USD and GBP/USD generated some small profits in the end. Dollar gains were, however, limited with markets swinging between war and peace.

Wird die Fed den Markt mit einer außerplanmäßigen Zinsanhebung schockieren?

Der U.S. Dollar profitierte von seiner Stellung als sicherer Hafen inmitten einer risikoscheuen Stimmung. Die Geldströme in den Dollar sind nicht nur auf die eskalierenden geopolitischen Spannungen an der Grenze zwischen Russland und der Ukraine zurückzuführen, sondern auch auf Zinserhöhungsspekulationen. Trader sind zunehmend von der Möglichkeit einer Zinserhöhung der Federal Reserve um 50 Basispunkte im nächsten Monat überzeugt. Es gab sogar jüngst Spekulationen darüber, dass die Fed eine Zinsanhebung außerplanmäßig zwischen den offiziellen Sitzungen vornehmen könne. Ein solcher Schritt ist jedoch sehr unwahrscheinlich. Da bisher nur die Januar-Daten vorliegen, welche einen sich ausweitenden Preisdruck zeigen und angesichts der anhaltenden geopolitischen Unruhen wird die Fed es womöglich vorziehen, erstmal abzuwarten, auch um weitere Daten zur Hand zu haben, bevor sie einen solch aggressiven Schritt unternimmt.

St. Louis Fed Präsident James Bullard, der drei Zinserhöhungen bis Juli befürwortet, sagte, die Fed sei nicht „in diesem Modus“ von Notfallzinserhöhungen, und stellte fest, dass es angesichts der bereits eingepreisten Straffung kaum notwendig sei, die Märkte jetzt zu überraschen.

Dennoch und abgesehen von den Zinsspekulationen sollten sich Händler einer möglichen Eskalation an der Grenze zur Ukraine bewusst sein, die die Märkte jederzeit ins Trudeln bringen kann.

EUR/USD – Bereit für einen Rutsch in Richtung 1.1250?

Nachdem der Widerstand um 1.1490 seinen Halt bewiesen hat, scheint der Euro auf eine Bewegung nach Süden in Richtung des Unterstützungsbereichs zwischen 1.1270 und 1.12 vorbereitet zu sein. Wir bleiben neutral, solange der Euro zwischen 1.1450 und 1.12 bleibt, aber im Falle eines erneuten Bruchs unter 1.1180 wird unser nächstes Ziel bei 1.11 liegen.

GBP/USD: Der Cable war zuletzt zwischen 1.3650 und 1.35 gefangen. Bullen werden nun auf einen Ausbruch über 1.3670 warten, während Bären auf einen Rückgang unter 1.3490 warten werden, um das Pfund in Richtung 1.34 zu verkaufen.

 

Wir wünschen gute Trades!

Will The Fed Shock The Market With An Inter-Meeting Rate Hike?

The U.S. dollar benefited from safe-haven flows amid risk-off sentiment. Cash flows into the dollar do not only stem from escalating geopolitical tensions at the border of Russia and Ukraine but also from rate hike speculation. Traders are increasingly convinced about the possibility of a Federal Reserve 50-bps rate hike next month. There was speculation about a rare inter-meeting Fed move before the Fed’s March 15-16 meeting but this move is very unlikely. With only the January data at hand showing broadening price pressures and amid lingering geopolitical unrest the Fed will favor to wait and taking in further data before making such aggressive move.

St. Louis Fed President James Bullard, who favors three hikes by July, said the Fed isn’t “in that mode” of emergency rate hikes, noting that there is little need to surprise markets now given the tightening they are pricing in already.

Nevertheless, traders should be aware of a potential escalation around the Ukraine border that can sent the markets into a tailspin.

EUR/USD – Poised for a slide towards 1.1250?

After the resistance around 1.1490 proved its hold, the euro seems to be primed for a move south toward the support area between 1.1270 and 1.12. We will maintain a neutral stance as along as the euro remains between 1.1450 and 1.12 but in case of a renewed break below 1.1180, our next target will be at 1.11.

GBP/USD: The cable was recently captured between 1.3650 and 1.35. Bulls will now wait for a break above 1.3670 while bears will wait for a slide below 1.3490 in order to sell sterling toward 1.34.

Roller Coaster Ride

Inflation-Thursday proved to be a roller-coaster ride in the markets. U.S. inflation came in at 7.5 percent and was thus higher-than-expected. While the initial market reaction sent the U.S. dollar higher, the following whipsaw performance wiped out any previous gains. At the end of the trading day and after three fake-outs we had to record a small loss. However, also these days happen in trading and we will get over it.

After yesterday’s wild ride we may see some more profitable movements today.

Have a nice weekend.

U.S. CPI Index To Inject Some Volatility?

This week’s performance is sluggish with exemption of the DAX where we got some profitable trading chances. In both EUR/USD and GBP/USD trading was very quiet in the last three days with almost no profitable trading chances.

Today we might see some larger moves in the Forex market with U.S. inflation data on tab at 12:30 UTC. Inflation is expected to exceed 7 percent and a higher-than-expected reading could bolster the U.S. dollar trade. Markets are currently pricing in more than five Federal Reserve rate hikes in 2022.

EUR/USD: Dollar bulls will watch out for a break below 1.1380. Target at 1.13. Sentiment changes in favor of the euro bulls above 1.1480.

GBP/USD: Dollar bulls will watch out for a break below 1.3490. Target at 1.3410. Sentiment changes in favor of the sterling bulls above 1.3610.

Quiet Trading

Not much is going on in the market with many currency pairs fluctuating in narrow price ranges. And thus, we got no profitable trading chance so far.

The EUR/USD remained trading within 1.1450 and 1.14. A renewed break above 1.1480 could lift the pair upwards towards 1.1520. A slide below 1.1390 however, could lead to a test of the 1.13-support.

The GBP/USD struggled to break significantly above 1.3560. We advise bulls to wait for a clear break above 1.3610 in order to buy sterling toward 1.3670.  Bears on the other side, may wait for a slide below 1.34.

U.S. Dollar Gains Following Strong NFP Report

The U.S. dollar strengthened against its peers last Friday following a strong U.S. jobs report. The payrolls report came in with 467k jobs versus 125k anticipated in January. Average hourly earnings surged 5.7 percent, fueling speculation about a fifth Federal Reserve rate hike this year.

This week all eyes turn to the U.S. Consumer Price Index scheduled for release on Thursday. Headline inflation is forecast to expand at 7.3 percent y/y, from 7.0 percent in December. A higher reading would likely benefit the greenback.

Technically, we see the EUR/USD trading above 1.14 after the pair hit our profit target at 1.1480. While we might see a steeper correction, euro bulls can hope for further highs as long as the euro remains above 1.1270. A next high is seen at 1.1520, followed by 1.16.

GBP/USD

Remaining below 1.36, our short-term forecast is slightly bearish with a next lower target seen at 1.34. Bulls, on the other side, will pay attention to a break above 1.3610 to buy sterling towards 1.37.

DAX – Bears, watch out!

The index approaches once again the 15000-threshold and could slide towards 14800 if 15000 breaks. A break below 14800 could open the door for a steeper decline towards 14400 and 14200. Above 15700 bulls will be in charge.
