Currency market – Trade results: 28 currency pairs

A  check to weekly trades. EM currencies yesterday all traded a commonality of 200 pips. GBP/AUD, USD/HUF, EUR/AUD, NZD/USD, USD/CNY all hit intended targets perfectly. A few others as well and highlighted below. USD/JPY and JPY cross pairs missed yet the miss was in our favor as shorts entered higher than expected.

What's definitive is the following statements: Interest rates = exchange rates and exchange rates = interest rates. Interest rates -= Statistics. Exchange rates = Statistics. But very few formulas work. Very few central banks allow longer term forecast to exchange rates. Most are perfectly in line with the Fed to only allow a few pips profit for day trades.

The BOJ from the gang that can't shoot straight forecasted USD/JPY's near perfect top and off by 13 pips but the same prediction was exactly matched by Statistics. The difference is USD/JPY's top was known Friday at the close of Japanese markets as was the same forecasts for JPY cross pairs.

Currency trading and other financial market instruments is all about formulas written in stone many, many decades ago. And never to change. The only requirement is a $4 calculator and the profits are guaranteed.

Beside USD/JPY and JPY cross pairs, the forecasts weren't terrible.

After this day, back to the normal profit routine.
