DXY LONGS AND HAWKISH FOMC Hey traders, in the coming week we are monitoring DXY for a buying opportunity around 103.1 zone, in the 4 of May we are coming across the FOMC event where we expect USD to gain strength and remains bullish prior to that. we highly recommend taking a look at DXY in the beginning of every trading week if not everyday, that will help you to spot the direction of USD pairs and trade them more professionally. trade safe, Joe.

USDJPY and Fed hiking rates Hey traders, in the coming week we are monitoring USDJPY for a buying opportunity around 128.4 zone, once we will receive any bullish confirmation the trade will be executed. Trade safe, Joe.

EURUSD Short Hey traders, in this week we are monitoring EURUSD for a long term selling opportunity around 1.12 zone, once we will receive any bearish confirmation the trade will be executed. Trade safe, Joe.

XAUUSD Short Hey Traders, in today's trading session we are monitoring XAUUSD for a selling opportunity around 1802 zone respecting the bearish trend in combination with the daily strong supply zone. Taking in consideration also the bullish bias i have on USD after Fed Hawkishness and you already know the negative correlation between USD and Gold. As usual once we will receive any bearish confirmation the trade will be executed. Remember always to respect proper risk management especially with gold, because gold movements are violent comparing to forex pairs. Trade safe, Joe.

EURUSD Short Hey Traders, in today's trading session we are monitoring EURUSD for a selling opportunity around around 1.128 zone. We have 1.123 as a first station for scalping lovers, and 1.09 zone for swing traders. one of the reasons i'm thinking about this trade is the bullish momentum i've noticed on DXY chart. and fed Powell being Hawkish in order to control inflation is an important factor to take in consideration for USD bulls. if you decided to go swing on this trade please wait for the perfect entry, and also use proper risk management, because swing movements are violent comparing to the movements in the short term. If you have any questions or looking for any update please don't hesitate to comment your opinion below. Joe.

GBPUSD SHORT: DOVISH BOE M. CARNEY SPEECH HIGHLIGHTS - AUG CUT IMO Mark Carney was very dovish on the margin, certainly reinforcing their/ my view of an August cut being 90% on the table. The most supportive statements were "MonPol Important In Cushioning Effects Of Any Relapse In Recovery In Months & Quarters Ahead", "The MPC Does Not Have The ''Luxury '' and "More Should Be Done To Cushion The Effects Of Negative Shocks" - all of which infer that an August cut is very much on the cards - especially given that the BOE has been relatively neutral as yet, whilst they have increased the offering of interbank funding by a few £100bn, apart from that the BOE is yet to make any moves in conventional policy tools, which member/ market expects the BOE to do e.g. a Bank Rate cut and/or formal QE. I personally am short GBP$ at these levels (see attached posts), and these comments from today have certainly reinforced my position given their dovishness, even more so when combined with yesterdays minutes which said "most MPC members expect to loosen policy in August" and "detailed analysis of all available policy tools is required" - both of which go hand as 1) they want to make sure they analyse the economy properly, which takes time (July too soon) yet all members expect August to be enough time to conclude/ act upon such analysis. Not to mention, given bank forecast a median GBP$ price of somewhere near 1.225, being short in the 1.30+ imo is certainly probabilistically favourable, especially if you are able to execute close to the Post-brexit highs of 1.35 which has held as solid resistance and imo should do for the foreseeable future given we traded to lows of 1.38 before brexit so 1.35 is very expensive post brexit. Further, the median bank forecast was for a 25bps cut in the bank rate in July (with some calling for 40-50bps), so if that was the case in July, given BOE didnt deliver, this only increases the chances of a cut in August which imo will take GBP$ to 1.25xx. USD demand increasing - Federal Funds Rate Implied PDF prices: Also, on the USD side, demand is increasing which compounds the GBP$ short support, as the Fed Funds Rate implied hike probabilities are continuing to steepen. For example, since yesterday, the implied probability of a September/ November hike has increased from 12%/12% to 19.5%/20.8% - with, for the first time, a 50bps hike being priced at 0.4%/0.8% respectively; Decemeber's probability also steepened to its highest level post brexit to 40% from 33.7%, 50bps at 7.5% from 3.4% and 75bps for the first time at 0.3%. This aggressive steepening in the rate/ probability curve is likely a function of the risk-on market we are in (SPX 4 new highs in a row), with 10y rates rallying TNX, averaging +4% every day this week. Further, I think the FOMC speakers comments which have 80% been hawkish this week has also increased confidence. Gov Mark Carney Speech Highlights - Monetary Policy Cannot Do Everything To Counter The Impact Of The Referendum - MonPol Important In Cushioning Effects Of Any Relapse In Recovery In Months & Quarters Ahead - BoE July Minutes, ''Broadly Consistent With My Personal View.'' - The MPC Does Not Have The ''Luxury '' - Far Too Early To Draw Strong Conclusions On Precise Path Of The UK Economy - UK Economy Is Unlikely To Crash, It Is Likely To Slow - A Sharp Fall In Currency Rate Will Provide A Shot In The Arm To The UKâs Net Exports - More Should Be Done To Cushion The Effects Of Negative Shocks - Past Few Weeks Have Generated Considerable Uncertainty Around UK Economy, Policy & Politics - Monetary Policy Should Stand Ready To Move In Either Direction - Brexit Has Increased Materially The Degree Of Uncertainty - Some Of This Uncertainty May Dissipate, But A Good Chunk Is Likely To Linger Over Next 2-Yrs - Uncertainty To Weigh On Domestic Spending By Both Companies & Households For Foreseeable Future - The Amount Of Slack In The UK Economy Is Likely To Steadily Rise
