Weekly Technical Analysis – “Use Strength Into First Half Sept To Sell”

by on
Here below the Swiss team’s excellent technical round up of the major markets across the world.

WF here on the US jobs data. As i’ve mentioned many times WF really do all they can to generally take a positive spin on the macro data. Its noteworthy that even they are struggling on this print. They fail to mention the downward revisions to June and July! WF-Employment-090613

Weekly FX & Bullion Technical Analysis & Macro Comments – “US$ Strength & Rates Rise”

September is usually associated with providing direction in the markets after the long summer months of chop and churn which is designed to confuse participants on where next. The macro theme since May of this year has been rising rates globally albeit from super low historic levels. Rates have risen quickly with today seeing the...

FX-CS-Nomura – 04/05 Sept13

by on
CS-FX-Daily05-09-13 & a useful set of charts and levels from Nomura on cable. I agree the door open to 1.575 but the area pretty crucial and tricky. I thought we might have got up there a bit sooner in Aug. As now sept spikes through more unlikely. Neutral now on this pair for me but...

Mkt Prestonni Comments & NORDIA Strat Sept13
