EURUSD……is the floor reached and rebound imminent?

4H_eurusd

The EURUSD is showing an interesting pattern. Certainly compared to the GBP, it has shown more resilience.  I believe it’s because the EU has less problems and issues compared to the UK.

It seems to be creating a floor at 1.0980.

This week’s european PMIs came out steady and upbeat. I believe all we need is to see more positive growth news coming out of EU and the EURUSD should easily jump back up to 1.1388.

If ADP for the US comes out weak, it may just provide the impetus for the EUR to be bidded upwards, of course, the big move will come tomorrow during the non farm payroll numbers.

It’s looking interesting???!!!

USDJPY…….Long at 100?!

Ever since Brexit accompanied by the economic problems in Japan, it appears that a trading opportunity is emerging.

As a safe heaven currency now, every time, negative comments are made of post-Brexit and EU, JPY is usually bidded up to 100 and sometimes higher at 98.98. I noticed that the JPY has hit 100 or better three times since post Brexit and each time rebounding back to 102.70 to 103.20.

Guess what it’s back up to 100.75 now, and moving at the 20% range of the stochastic curves.  Possible rebound back to 101, then to 102?

To play the plan vanilla options is not worth it as the vols are high resulting in elevated premiums.

What to do?  How to capture the potential opportunity?
