Market overview
Since the last release the markets have been broadly range bound, although from an intra-day perspective volatility has been high. Unfortunately this type of price action has the effect of keeping market participants sidelined until clearer signals appear on the daily and weekly charts.
The intermediate strategy has been to buy sterling and the dollar against the previously strong currencies, i.e the Swiss franc, yen and euro, looking for a counter-trend retracement. Whilst this is still the favoured view, for the moment, we could be approaching the end of this strategy (though in weeks rather than days) where the main themes of a strong yen and swiss franc return.
Relative stability in the equitiy markets is gradually eroding and whilst bond yields have risen aggressively, the reasons for this are not necessarily positive for the dollar from a long term perspective.
Opportunities (or risk) may be confined to short term trading for now, but a return to the trending markets is coming into focus.

Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
