Trading the News: Euro-Zone Consumer Price Index (CPI) (based on dailyfx article)
- Euro-Zone Consumer Price Index (CPI) to Mark the Slowest Pace of Growth Since October 2009.
- Core Inflation to Hold Steady at 0.9% for Second Straight Month.
A further slowdown in the Euro-Zone’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) may prompt fresh monthly lows in the EUR/USD as it puts increased pressure on the European Central Bank (ECB) to implement more non-standard measures.
What’s Expected:
Why Is This Event Important:
The ECB may continue to push monetary policy into uncharted territory as the Governing Council struggles to achieve its one and only mandate to deliver price stability, and the bearish sentiment surrounding the Euro may gather pace throughout the remainder of the year amid the weakening outlook for growth and inflation.
The persistent slack in the real economy may paint a weakened outlook for price growth, and a dismal CPI print may generate a bearish reaction in the EUR/USD should the report highlight a greater threat for deflation.
However, the unprecedented steps taken by the ECB may help to mitigate the downside risk for inflation, and a better-than-expected release may generate a more meaningful rebound in the Euro as it curbs bets of seeing a new wave of monetary support.
How To Trade This Event Risk
Bearish EUR Trade: Headline & Core CPI Highlight Greater Threat for Deflation
- Need red, five-minute candle following the release to consider a short EUR/USD trade
- If market reaction favors selling Euro, short EUR/USD with two separate position
- Set stop at the near-by swing high/reasonable distance from entry; look for at least 1:1 risk-to-reward
- Move stop to entry on remaining position once initial target is hit, set reasonable limit
- Need green, five-minute candle to favor a long EUR/USD trade
- Implement same setup as the bearish Euro trade, just in opposite direction
EUR/USD Daily
- Downside targets remain favored as RSI retains bearish momentum & pushes deeper into oversold territory
- Interim Resistance: 1.3010 (50.0% retracement) to 1.3020 (23.6% expansion)
- Interim Support: 1.2590 (100% expansion) to 1.2600 pivot

August 2014 Euro-Zone Consumer Price Index (CPI)
EURUSD M5 : 17 pips price movement by EUR - CPI news event:
The Euro-Zone’s annualized Consumer Price Index (CPI) continued the downward trend and slipped to a 5-year low of 0.3% from 0.4% the month prior, while the core inflation rate unexpectedly rose 0.9% during the same period amid forecasts for a 0.8% print. The ongoing weakness in price growth may put increased pressure on the European Central Bank (ECB) to implement its own quantitative easing program amid the growing threat for deflation. Nevertheless, the initial reaction in the EUR/USD was short-lived as the pair consolidated around 1.3182 following the release, but the euro-dollar came under increased pressure during the North American trade as it ended the day at 1.3133.

Boosting RSI with the Modified Inverse Fisher Transform (MIFT) - Part 1
Upside price action can be in sharp contrast to what is experienced to the downside. "The market goes down like an elevator but up like an escalator," as prices tend to fall faster than they rise. At the same time, technical indicators, such as the well-known Relative Strength Index (RSI), treat rising prices the same as falling prices. Adjusting the indicator distribution with the Modified Inverse Fisher Transform (MIFT) helps to account for those differences and provides new trading applications. This paper will introduce the TSLabs: Modified Inverse Fisher Transform custom indicator with practical examples to explore and apply in trading.

Next EUR/USD Leg Lower Begins; Trade Opportunities in EUR/AUD, EUR/GBP
- EURUSD cracks weekly low and tumbles below $1.2600.
- New EURGBP trade on the table.
- EURUSD has been on a major losing streak since mid-August.
Euro-Zone economic data came out roundly weaker than expected today, and the aftershocks have been felt throughout EUR-complex. The depth of impact stemming from the disappointing preliminary September Euro-Zone CPI may have to do with expectations for the core: +0.9% y/y was expected when +0.7% y/y was delivered. The scope of disinflation widens.
Over the next few months, Euro-Zone CPI may start to bottom. For starters, if it takes three to nine months for changes in interest rates and exchange rates to impact an economy, then the EURUSD peak in early-May is a good watermark to look back at; the window for peak drag on CPI by FX is just about now.

EUR/USD Downside Targets in Focus- Gold Eyes Key $1,179 Support
- EUR/USD Downside Targets in Focus Ahead of ECB Policy Meeting.
- Gold Eyes Key $1,179 Support as Bearish RSI Momentum Remains in Play.
- EUR/USD marks fresh monthly low of 1.2569 as Euro-Zone Consumer Price Index (CPI) narrows to 0.3%, while core inflation unexpectedly slips to 0.7% from 0.9%.
- Downside objectives remain favored ahead of the European Central Bank (ECB) policy meeting as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) retains bearish momentum & pushes deeper into oversold territory.
Is it really possible to outperform the Stock Market? The answer is a definite YES. In order to achieve this outperformance, it is necessary to use a top-down approach to identifying stocks that are outperforming both the index and the sector.

Trading the News: U.S. ISM Manufacturing (based on dailyfx article)
- U.S. ISM Manufacturing Survey Expected to Fall Back from Highest Reading Since March 2011.
- Even Though Employment Component Narrowed in August, Still Marked the Second-Highest Print for 2014.
A downtick in the ISM Manufacturing survey may generate a bearish dollar reaction (bullish EUR/USD) should the data print dampen the outlook for growth and inflation.
What’s Expected:
Why Is This Event Important:
At the same time, we will need to keep a close eye on the employment component as the highly anticipated Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report is expected to show the U.S. economy adding another 217K jobs in September, and a material downward revision in the key metrics may undermine the bullish sentiment surrounding the greenback as it drags on interest rate expectations.
The dollar may face a near-term correction should the ongoing slack in the real economy spur a marked slowdown in manufacturing, and a dismal ISM print may prompt the Fed to further delay its normalization cycle as Chair Janet Yellen remains reluctant to move away from the zero-interest rate policy (ZIRP).
Nevertheless, the resilience in private sector consumption may foster another unexpected uptick in the manufacturing survey, and a better-than-expected release may heighten the bullish sentiment surrounding the dollar as it raises the Fed’s scope to implement a rate hike sooner rather than later.
How To Trade This Event Risk
Bearish USD Trade: ISM Survey Narrows to 58.5 or Lower
- Need to see green, five-minute candle following the release to consider a long trade on EURUSD
- If market reaction favors a bearish dollar trade, buy EURUSD with two separate position
- Set stop at the near-by swing low/reasonable distance from entry; look for at least 1:1 risk-to-reward
- Move stop to entry on remaining position once initial target is hit; set reasonable limit
- Need green, five-minute candle to favor a short EURUSD trade
- Implement same setup as the bearish dollar trade, just in the opposite direction
EUR/USD Daily
- Remains vulnerable to a further decline as near-term bearish RSI momentum remains in play
- Interim Resistance: 1.3010 (50.0% retracement) to 1.3020 (23.6% expansion)
- Interim Support: 1.2450 (78.6% retracement) to 1.2500 pivot

August 2014 U.S. ISM Manufacturing
EURUSD M5 : 10 pips price movement by USD - ISM Manufacturing PMI news event:
Manufacturing activity in the U.S. unexpectedly picked up in August as the ISM survey rose to 59.0 from July’s 57.1 print; reaching the highest level since March 2011. The expansion was fueled by a surge in orders for plastics and metals, and highlights the scope for a stronger U.S. recovery in the second half of the year. The market reaction to the positive ISM print was limited and short-lived as the EUR/USD chopped around 1.3128, with the pair closing the day at 1.3122.

USDJPY Fundamentals (based on dailyfx article)
The Japanese Yen fell to fresh post-financial crisis lows versus the surging US Dollar, but a clear slowdown the USDJPY rally warns that it’s near an end. When might we buy?
The difficulty in trading the USDJPY is clear: recent data shows that the trade is extremely crowded, and a sharp correction is possible if not likely. Yet the US Dollar continues to defy our expectations and is plowing higher across the board. We’ll need to wait for signs of concrete turnaround before getting short USDJPY.
An upcoming Bank of Japan Monetary Policy Meeting and Decision dominate event risk for the Japanese Yen in the week ahead, while clear USD outperformance keeps focus on a number of important US data releases. See the full video for our take on what to expect, but in sum: we are likely biding our time and keeping a very close eye on whether the USDJPY breaks above ¥110.
