Opportunities to push the greenback lower early Wednesday weren't taken, notes JP Morgan. This has installed a cautiious note in the banks negative outlook for the greenback, so although it sticks with its bearish view, it would suggest paring back risk, especially if EUR/USD breachs 1.22 and 1.2150, as a full blown reversal may then develop. EUR/USD now at 1.2245

not all breaks are created equal or must end in the direction of the herd.. late comers & some 'systematic model' funds adding top/bottom feeding market liquidities usually are the exception..


Helsinki iw 07:47 GMT January 23, 2006
Reportedly good demand from model funds behind the break of 1,2225/35 resistance in EUR/USD. Technically that break is another bullish sign, and the euro is likely to trade towards the 1,26 level over the coming weeks. Intraday, we are already a touch overbought, so ranging around current levels is probable. IMHO


van Gecko 07:08 GMT January 23, 2006
Impulsive moves occurring at the beginning of the week are rarely sustainable.. especially when they over-shoot major levels at the late stages of maturing short term counter-trend moves..
Cheerios..


euro @1.2250

New York precious-metals futures closed sharply lower Tuesday in a move characterized as large-scale profit-taking, including liquidation from the funds, with sell stops accelerating the decline

DJ NY Precious Metals Review: Gold Pressured By Profit-Taking
Comex gold futures resembled base jumpers Friday - first they climbed to heights not seen in 25 years due to strong technicals and geo-political concerns, then jumped off a cliff on profit-taking.

Gold price losing shine
correspondents in London
Gold prices could slump below $US500 in the first half of 2006 after a recent strong run, owing to falling jewellery demand, metals consultancy GFMS forecast overnight.

Milan Pm 09:42.. heres more wishful freebies FYI..

"..10:08 GMT January 10, 2006
.. a side to up Dollar bias vs the Euro & Jpy and some major on going corrective works from the Eur/Cad & Cad/Jpy crosses should see Usd/Cad do a fast catch-up behind the coattail of the US Dollar baby bull..
with the recent aberrated lows supporting the Dollar, over 1.20 re-targets ~ 1.27 mid term ~ ~ > good odds for 1.35/38 as a year long marching targets.."

now the yellow metal will also support the Goose's flight..
Cheerios..


Milan Pm 09:42 GMT January 19, 2006

Gecko, any views re Usd/Cad, TIA


van Gecko 09:00 GMT January 10, 2006
Syd.. indeed, a vely good way to top up the reserve with discounted Dollars to meet those year end double paid staff bonus & new year lai-sees.. sub 1.20 euro on deck soon..

Syd 08:14 GMT January 10, 2006
van Gecko 08:09 hi there I was wondering when the denial would arrive it took a little longer this time .. heard the employers this year are asking their staff, as its the year of the Dog to work like one. :-)))

van Gecko 08:09 GMT January 10, 2006
Syd 07:42.. yep.. vely bad fengshui.. most Asian would prefer to have lots of Dollars ending the Chinese year of the Rooster & starting the new year of the Dog..


Syd 07:42 GMT January 10, 2006

Gecko//many thanks, was away.
Think usd bear has an uneasy feeling on dlr/cad surprises.


van Gecko 07:08 GMT January 9, 2006
ab.. SOB'ing anything in the vicinity of 1.2150/1.2250 may be money in the new year piggy bank.. euro need to sustain multiple weekly closes above 1.23 inorder to have any hope of seeing 1.26/1.28 this year.. cheerios..

hk ab 06:32 GMT January 9, 2006
Gecko//More explicit hints plz? :D


van Gecko 06:09 GMT January 9, 2006

"09:08 GMT March 30, 2005
The Dollar regaining USDX 86 in April could start the Euro on its L/T journey to here.. "


the Dollar had regained USDX 86 & the link had expired.. so, after euro's imminent M/T date with 1.13 its L/T fate may be 'linked' to expiration ?
