Forex Trading Weekly Forecast - 12.10.2012
The US dollar (ticker = USDollar) ended another week relatively unchanged against major counterparts, even with a significant NFP report. Large-ticket items are on this week's docket as well, highlighted by the final FOMC meeting and press conference by Chairman Bernanke on Wednesday. However, the slow end-of-year drain of volume from the markets may result in another week of daily moves, but no ground gained at the end of Friday.


Forex Trading Weekly Forecast - 12.3.2012
Just a cursory look at the US Dollar chart and we can feel the pressure building. On an activity basis, the benchmark currency index (ticker = USDollar) is carving out its smallest range (using a two-week ATR reading) in years. In contrast, the fundamental risks are lining up with the Fiscal Cliff rhetoric escalating and Euro-area crisis resolution skepticism reaching new heights.


Forex Trading Weekly Forecast - 11.19.2012
The momentum that returned the US Dollar Index back above 10,000 was still remarkably less than what this week's equity drop would usually offer. In fact, most of the dollar's strength was provided by a 2.4% drop in the yen, while the Euro, Pound Sterling and Australian Dollar held their ground. With both big-ticket risk positive and negative events on the horizon next week, including the next bailout payment for Greece, developments in Israel and ongoing US fiscal cliff concerns, volatility is expected, but major risk pairs may again end the week with no ground gained.
