Euro Debt Crisis

Recommended Posts

no no, you get me wrong......like in the eurjpy live trade I posted the other day.......the analysis comes from the higher time frames (monthly, weekly) but on that 4h chart the counting shows where are we supposed to be on that time frame.........and I trade that time frame or even the 1h chart, with SL and TP based on that one.........the support and resistance areas from the higher timeframes I take them into consideration when price reaches them.......but trading the lower time frames count.........too confusing?

 

A little bit yes :)

 

Can you post few step-by-step graphs?

Despite minutes from the Fed's June meeting showing half of its policymakers think its monthly $85B stimulus program should be cut by the end of 2013, Bernanke's message was enough to snap markets back into buying mode.

 

Nonetheless, Bernanke's comments were taken by the markets as much more dovish so I suspect it be good to trade puts especially on the DAX and the FTSE100.

 

We are still in a bit of a sweet spot for equity markets. The US economy is recovering steadily and this is an encouraging sign for equity markets with future earnings expected to be good, but it is not hot enough to cause the Fed to scale back the stimulus...

Mario Draghi, the president of the European Central Bank, said the euro zone had stabilized markedly in the last year as he offered an ever so slightly more upbeat assessment of the prospects for growth. But he indicated that the fragile state of the euro zone economy means that any decision to raise interest rates is still a long way off.

Most likely nothing, actually is the better description - for both.

 

Neither want to acknowledge debt problems and are "kicking the can" down the road.

 

is there any other way?.....I don't think so....so let's kick it still for a couple of more decades and still call it we're in a crises......regardless the type (euro, debt ceiling, etc)

Very little likelihood we can keep it going beyond a couple more years.

 

I'll take my chances rather than wait for "inevitable" to happen......Greece was inevitably falling no more than 1.5 years ago.......same Spain..........and so on

 

so I would rather do something constructive in the meantime......like buying equities :)

Personally i have the same analysis, however im more concern over the time line. The Feds tapering is not a concluded matter. Basically, they could start tapering as early as November just to see how markets are going to react to it ! Then, they take it from there .. Do you really think , anyone will talk about tapering , while a second government shut down & debt ceiling as early as Feb 2014 ? The bond markets will be a sell off. In Euro's defense, it wasn't a honey moon month also. Italy's government was on the brink of a crisis , Greece about to ask for the third bail out tranch, there is no elected government yet in Germany and exposure to Syrian - new Iraq reality. However, all in all he Euro is in better shape than one year ago. So i see your point there !

 

In my opinion, now is the time for a Rate cut - not an LTRO ... why Dragni is holding on? I have no idea, are they expecting Euro to reach higher? Is it German opposition? Or growing feeling that Europe is recovering and no need for extra measure.

 

So, in 6 Months from now its more than possible...........

oh but they won't cut the rates.......the reallocation into the euraud pair for example has been tremendous lately and it will continue.....if you think the pair traveled from the 1.17 area only to pierce the 1.50 level by 30 pips and then to go on free falling.......I don't think so and 1.50 is here to stay and it will be touched again.

 

same bullish story on eurnzd, eurcad, and even on eurusd.....so technicals do not favor a rate cut as it is priced in on the market now, and fundamentals neither, as a rate cut would undermine the work ECB did so far......why firing the last bullet they have when conditions are relative stable in terms of currency fluctuations (I mean a coridor of 1000 pips is ok for any central bank)........so the key will come from the US

Moody's warns on Euro zone banks

 

The credit rating agency reported that EU bank capital and profits will remain pressured in 2014 due to the effects of the European debt-crisis lingering on for sometime.

 

The bank outlook is mixed with the credit quality of peripheral EU nations softening.

yeah, lately European banks have been also warned by the ECB to make sure they are preparing for when the Fed will unwind the QE

 

so something is coming....storm or just bad weather?

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
