It does feel like the calm before the storm. This coming week we have the eagerly awaited US CPi data. Will it’s release finally end the battle between the markets and the FED. At the moment there are still those believing that the FED will be cutting interest rates towards the end of 2023. Despite […]

It’s been a long time since I have written the following “Jesus, Mary and Joseph and the wee Donkey”. I would say that there is plenty of head scratching going on this weekend. The FED, ECB and BOE left me with more questions than answers at the messages delivered were all three were conflicting, confusing […]

We have a big week on the horizon, and to be honest, I have been holding back on adding too many trades as I am seeking some clarification on several matters. FED, ECB and BOE: Where are we on the interest rate cycle? What are current thoughts vis-à-vis RECESSION? What are the current thoughts on […]

So far 2023 has not disappointed from a volatility perspective, which always leads into the discussion about the various types of volatility and is the type we are currently experiencing of the correct variant! With reference to specifics regarding volatility, at this point, I could quote Clark Gable from the movie Gone with the wind… “Frankly […]

US CPI did not disappoint. Whilst the print was in line with expectations the market reaction was its now customary response of wild volatility taking out both longs and shorts from the market. Of the USD majors, possibly the best example being the cable, which, took a 140 pip round way trip in very rapid […]

Great to be back from the holiday break and, I am raring to go. I basically observed last week’s action in the FX market. In past years I have been caught out with early year trading during times of low liquidity. I learned my lesson the hard way and I believe the phrase to use […]

My final presentation of 2022 is titled “CAN THE WEEKLY FX PREMIUM WORK FOR YOU?” Basically, this presentation is aimed at serious FX traders, who are looking to broaden their perspectives, as well as those new to FX. When I first started trading FX, there was no “me” around to offer a different outlook or […]

2022 was a record breaker for the number of pips generated. It was also the second year running that all three of my KPi (Key Performance Indicators) were beaten (Pips generated, Pips per completed trade and Winning Trades / Losing Trades Ratios). I attach below the link to my short video presentation looking at the […]

As we head into the Christmas holiday and New Year break, whilst I am busy getting together the content for my year end “ZOOM’S”, it is also the time of year to launch a WEEKLY FX PREMIUM SUBSCRIBER PROMOTION. For those of you who want to see what I do day to day, there is […]

As we head into what is really the final big week of trading this year, I find it really fascinating that we are at many inflection points vis-à-vis the economic data. Without doubt reducing OIL prices has started to filter into headline inflation numbers prompting Central Bankers to slow down the size of interest rate […]

The weeks seem to be racing through. Next week we start the final round of the major Central Bank meetings and interest rate announcements. Last week we heard from FED chair Jerome Powell, who delivered what the market believed to be a more DOVISH tone at his speech and Q & A at the Brooking […]

Last week was a shortened week of trading plus, this weekend is also a long weekend for many of the bigger traders, so, as a result, we have seen a stunted FX market for quite a few days. Looking forward, we have a very busy week ahead for key data plus a speech by FED […]

Worsening and concerning Economic Data is starting to bubble up behind the voices of the Central Bank Governors, Presidents, and the ever so popular aligned spokespersons! From my perspective these pieces of data are individual dominoes forming an orderly line, from which, I am expecting a TRIGGER to pull and then the dominoes will start […]
