Fundamental Analysis, November, 17 / 2011

Mildly, the U.S. economy encouraging indicators resubmitted, although forecasts of a future recession in 2012 will remain firm. There is that President Obama expressed concern about the European future, as the old continent will need to succeed to avoid, in part, to trigger a new crisis in his country.

Anyway, as a sign of changing moods prevailing in global markets today, suffice to say that the dollar has completely mixed behavior in relation to currencies, commodities and stocks.

Just in time for New York Stock Exchange is a certain coordination between actions and coins, old-fashioned. Beyond that, it is remarkable to see how, while oil away from the $ 100 a barrel, the Canadian dollar does not grow, and is defeated by the U.S. dollar.

The Swiss franc, for instance, also away from parity imposed by the SNB of 1.20 against the euro, and is close to 1.25, which is the new floor of which was discussed a month ago. And the yen continues its erratic behavior, subject to interventions with a show of strength, but still subject to his demand after the interventions.

Gold, another concerning the mood of the market for the $ 1800 again, although it moves away from that level in European morning Thursday. And the British pound finally seems to regain some of its lost ground in recent days, with a positive step for October retail sales.

During the U.S. session on Thursday will know the usual requests for unemployment insurance and building permits (key data), at 8:30 Eastern. Later, at 10:00, will be the turn of the index of the Philadelphia Fed, and this is the agenda of macro data of the day.

Fundamental Analysis, November, 18 / 2011

European shares operating profit of 1.5% on average.

These movements are giving impetus to the euro, which had begun the session with a retreat on all fronts. In turn, the British pound positions recovers quickly.

The most important note of the day gives the record of Spain country risk since the creation of the euro, which surpassed 700 points on Thursday, and that puts the level of Greece, Portugal and Ireland, and in a dangerous area about their ability to pay debt.

Indeed, in this area seems to have a high speculative component, adding to credit to several European countries, using the wrong time living Italy and Greece, among others. There is also question the solvency of the second European power, France, the country risk exceeded 200 points, a figure that would be coveted in emerging countries, and that the French is a scandal.

In another, fell strong oil prices, both Brent below $ 110, including WTI, who lost the mark of $ 100.

The Canadian dollar extended a fall of 4 days, like oil (the main export of the country), was launched yesterday. The sweet crude oil futures for December delivery fell to $ 101.76 a barrel at $ 98.82. At the same time, the depreciation of the currency is fueled by expectations that the reports can now add to the evidence of Canada's economy is cooling. According to preliminary estimates, inflation in Canada fell in October to 2.7% from 3.2% in annual figures.

As for gold, recover positions in these hours of searching the area of �‹�‹$ 1,700 per ounce, and takes a long-term uptrend that could have its peak around June 2012.

USD/JPY Wave analysis for November 18, 2011

Wave chart analysis:

Yesterday’s USD/JPY trading did not bring any considerable changes into the formed wave situation, and the price continued with horizontal movement along the 77 figure level.

Therefore we have received an evidence of our assumption that the inner wave structure of the 4th wave obtained the shape of a horizontal triangle.

At the same time such wave structure looks almost complete at the moment. However, given the formation process of the previous horizontal trend we cannot eliminate the possibility of the whole 4th wave to become even more complicated and continuous.

If the price reverses to the upside the immediate resistances will be Fibonacci retracements of the wave down from 1.0343 - this wave is not developed so no resistances are available so far.

Overbought/Oversold

Assuming that the larger wave is now moving down it's preferable to try short positions when the Detrended Oscillator goes above the zero level (5-10 pips above the current prices) or gets into the overbought area (40-55 pips above the current prices).

Fundamental Analysis, November, 22 / 2011

The week had begun with the threat of so-called "super committee" of the U.S. Congress, composed of legislators from both major parties do not reach an agreement to reduce the budget deficit in the first world economy.

Indeed, after the close of U.S. markets, the committee announced that it reached an agreement, in words that, if not very carefully read seemed to say just the opposite. "After several months of hard work, and shared effort, do not reach a bipartisan agreement," the statement said, also, unusually, announced that in the coming months, maybe it is a common view.

The truth is that, beyond the pompous announcements, the new political fight puts rating agencies whose credibility is so low as to politicians involved in alertness.

The general comment is that some of them could cut U.S. debt notes. The immediate background, which occurred last August, had two implications well visible: the first was that turned the investing public, in fear of a general market collapse, the bond which had just been cut note, the second was the resignation, dismissal of the CEO of Standard & Poor's. A gesture to the rest of the sector CEOs think it will make the qualifying time of U.S. debt.

Moreover, the predictable happens in these cases: general decline in stock markets around the world, newspapers showing photos of the traders on Wall Street with his hands on his head, the graphs point down, and the same bad omens of good. Until again, any good news to change the mood of the markets.

Tuesday's U.S. session data is to keep the number of retail sales in Canada, along with preliminary U.S. GDP, at 8:30 Eastern. And the FOMC Minutes from the last meeting of the agency, at 2:00 PM.

EUR/USD Bearish Outlook, November 22, 2011 (Daily Strategy)

The Euro-Dollar pair remains under pressure due to high cost of borrowing that remained in Europe and the weakening economic outlook in the Eurozone.

At the technical level we see in the daily chart, the pair has formed a technical figure as a triangle, only the breaking of one of its side will confirm the scenario, either bearish or bullish. if it is a bullish scenario we have a bearish strategy, ie sell at the weekly R1 to target short term pivot level around 1.3580. On the other hand, the range indicator shows that the pair is moving away from the oversold, we could say that there is a struggle to maintain bearish positions. At this level we do not recommend selling or buying. due to the uncertainty.

GBP/USD wave analysis for November 22, 2011

Wave dimension analysis:

In the beginning of the week the GBP/USD fell by almost 3 figures, which allowed it to stop at 1.5610 later in the day. Therefore the price continued moving within the downside trend section, thus forming the inner wave structure of the 5th wave in the estimated 3rd (or c). If so, the 5th wave itself still does not look complete and allows the possibility of the downside movement to resume in the direction of the target level between 1.5565-1.5550.

Fundamental Analysis, November, 23 / 2011

The dollar strengthened on all fronts by averaging the European session on Wednesday, growing stronger against the euro, pound sterling and Swiss franc.

The problems facing Europe, more precisely the states with financial problems to meet their sovereign debt, as well as doubts about maneuvers that would be carrying out some banks to "disguise" losses and present a positive number, print a downward force to the euro , who arrived 1 hour at its lowest since Oct. 10.

The euro area remains the center, with investor concerns about escalating plans for a new attempt to rescue Dexia, the Franco-Belgian bank to the brink of bankruptcy as a result of exposure to sovereign debt.

In turn, a negative German manufacturing PMI "helped" this new downward movement of the single currency.

Nevertheless, the stock of the old continent have no negative day: the DAX 30 in Germany grows above 2.5%, figures similar to the CAC 40 and FTSE 100. From there you can also explain the slight recovery experienced by the euro in the last hour.

In the U.S. session key data is expected on durable goods orders, which once generated great expectations among operators, which produced sharp movements. Although the impact that in recent months is somewhat devalued, the forecast is for growth of the orders of 0.1% in October, compared with 1.8% the previous period, subject to revision.

Also known reports of income and personal consumption, all at 8:30 Eastern. Meanwhile, at 9:55 will be the turn of the consumer confidence index from the University of Michigan / Reuters, and 10:30, the weekly inventory of oil.

The USD/JPY technical analysis and trading recommendations for November 23, 2011

4-hour timeframe

Overview:

According to the analysis of the yen on Forex market, the yen decided to keep up with the euro and the franc and remain in the sideways movement. In general the movement is quite weak. The narrow channel forces the Ichimoku indicator to give false signals, therefore it is not recommended to enter the market before the trend movement starts. The Bollinger bands show continuing sideways movement, the lines are slightly diverging and directed sideways, which indicates the recommendation to stay out of the market. The MACD is ascending, which indicates current upside movement, and is located near the zero level, which also points to the absence of the trend.

Trading recommendations:

Currently it is recommended to refrain from yen trading until the trend movement starts.

In addition to technical image, one should take into account the fundamental data and the time of their release.

Chart annotation:

Ichimoku indicator:

Tenkan-sen — red line

Kijun-Sen — blue line

Senkou Span A — light brown stipple line

Senkou Span B — light purple stipple line

Chinkou Span — green line

Bollinger Bands indicator:

3 yellow lines
