All Eyes On Draghi: Will He Talk Down The Euro?

Dear Traders, The British pound finally broke above 1.2865 this morning and a next hurdle could now be at 1.29. If the pound rises above 1.2910 we may see a run for 1.30. Let’s us wait and see. The much anticipated U.S. tax plan disappointed investors as it left too many unanswered questions and did […]

Can The Euro Hold Onto Its High Price Level?

Dear Traders, The euro broke above Monday’s spike high at 1.0923 but gains were capped at 1.0950, at least for the time being. The question now is whether there is still room for further gains. Looking at the 4-hour and daily chart we see that the EUR/USD is in overbought territory, a situation that increases […]

Market Returned To Risk-Off Mode

Dear Traders, Risk appetite among market participants has subsided following the risk-on rally in the wake of French elections.

We may see some increase in volatility […]

Euro And Cable Consolidate Following Strong Moves

Dear Traders, The British pound gave up some of the gains it had made on Tuesday and fell back below 1.28.

Sluggish Market Conditions Persist Amid Geopolitical Tensions

Dear Traders, Risk aversion and the liquidity drain ahead of the Easter holiday are hobbling the market. Tuesday’s best performer, however, was the British pound which soared to a high of 1.2494. The pound sterling benefited from a weakening U.S. dollar, which suffered some losses amid geopolitical tensions. The U.S.’s recent tougher stance created a […]

GBP/USD: U.K. Inflation Report To Dictate Price Action

Dear Traders, While the U.S. dollar ended the day virtually unchanged against the euro, it traded slightly lower versus the British pound Monday.
