A Recharge For The Canadian Dollar Bull

A Recharge For The Canadian Dollar Bull

A little over a week ago, I explained why I put the Mexican peso and the Canadian dollar (FXC) on shorter leashes. Canada’s extremely strong second quarter GDP report at the end of August just loosened that leash a little.

USD/JPY Gaps Sharply Lower On North Korean Hydrogen Bomb Test

USD/JPY Gaps Sharply Lower On North Korean Hydrogen Bomb Test

Another week, another escalation in tensions around North Korea. The rogue nation claims it tested a mighty hydrogen bomb.

Returned To A Bounce Top?

Returned To A Bounce Top?

Over the course of my vacation, I have seen markets go from a nascent sell off to a recovery bounce. After four days of gains, markets finished the week slow close to, or at resistance. Shorts may find opportunities in Tech indices. The Nasdaq 100 is at resistance with Friday’s doji marking a double top with the […]
USD/JPY Weekly Analysis – September 3, 2017

USD/JPY Weekly Analysis – September 3, 2017

USD/JPY failed to break below 108.13 and rebounded from 108.26. A break above 110.94 key resistance could signal completion of the downside movement from 114.49, then another rise to retest 115.50 resistance could be seen.
