And that since early May.
And nothing has changed in the meantime.
Absolutely nothing.
Except more talk and more hot air - and still no money on the table. As most are already close to the absys.
So say fundamentals. America and EU are toast. For the same reasons. Lying, cheating, living beyond ones means, capitalsm for a few oligarchs, while J6P pays the bill ...
If you have the slightest doubts about the current situation/environment - dig into Brent's trend channel.
2013 / Q1 or so expecting the lows.
Of course with several dead cat bounces underway.
In the end with indices again cut in half.
1930ff replay.
Wake me up 8-9 month later.

dt, we had an earlier discussion that some banks like to read gvi to kick our stops mentioned or playing the opposite direction of the consensus in the forum.
so, let's see if they would like to touch my stop at 1633 before falling again.

Forex: USD holds scope to weaken further - BBH: Reply
(San Francisco) - The U.S. dollar lost ground against its major trading counterparts over the past week, save yen, driven in part by positive developments in the euro zone, extended positioning and technical pressures.
EUR/USD has recovered all of the previous week’s losses, having climbed to as high as 1.2624 from an earlier weekly low of 1.2385, last quoted up 1.4% as we near the end of the week at 1.2590.
GBP/USD has recovered nicely from its recent fall to 5-month lows below 1.5270, last at 1.5540 vs. 1.5360 past Friday.
The Australian and New Zealand dollars have both gained sharply on the dollar this week, with AUD/USD last quoted at 0.9915 vs. 0.9685 past Friday, while NZD/USD last trades at 0.7690 vs. 0.7530.
In the week ahead there is further scope for foreign currencies to rally against the dollar, as positioning adjustment continues, according to Brown Brothers Harriman.
“The corrective rally is likely to continue as long as the euro can hold the $1.25 level,” says BBH. “However, with the fundamental political and economic backdrop in the euro zone likely to remain poor, medium-term investors would be best advised to sell foreign currencies into rallies.”.
As bearish as I am on a Euro Zone fix, much less a Spanish fix, I can't help but feel that a can kick on Spain's bank bailout is in the cards find another reason to sell risk other than this mountainous problem of an undercapitalized banking system at least for the time being.

Latest Fix is in for Spain (FXA)
I think we have a window for risk to run higher into the Greek election and if ND surprises by winning most votes and pathetic PASOK can get enough to form a coalition with ND, we may just be looking at medium-term bottom in the euro at 1.2285 hit last week.

it's about to get funny because there is technical reasoning to enter long trades. burn your fingers and empty the wallet scenario to take place for those not able to trade beyond the chart.

In FX trading, EUR/USD tested fresh two-year lows at 1.2289 but did find the ability to bounce over 150 pips from its lows in a short-covering rally to test 1.2450. However the euro gave up some gains and fell back to 1.2360 mid morning.
