Good morning. Hope everyone had a good week end! We have had a good forecast for our Friday forecast with majority of the pairs conforming to our prediction. It looks like a 5 out of 7. On the Oceanic pairs markets punched through our blue zone but on all other pairs they were respected. The US Dollar has strengthened while the Japanese Jen was more sidelined. Would be wise to keep a close eye on New Zealand Dollar and Euro pairs due to our fundamental watch for today. We could be looking at a strong US Dollar and a weak Japanese Yen today. Adding one hedged pair to offset the trading risk. Happy Trading!
Forecasts Outlook
US Dollar: Strong
Today we're expecting the EURUSD to proceed Short below the barrier levels of 1.26939 and 1.27238.
