Highs 1.1422, Lows 1.1274

Entry off 96 pips, and profit 52 pips

Strategy: EUR/USD began last week and this week in deep overbought. EUR/USD remains deeply overbought. We maintain a short only strategy until target achieves.

I'm looking for today's close around 1.1230's. This means take profit for interested at 96 pips upon 1.1230's close.

Add additonal lot at significant overbought highs at 1.1400's then profits will be significantly higher.

Day trade shorts today at 1.1357 and 1.1349 to target 1.1243 and 1.1259 until 10:00 am EST. Significantly lower for EUR/USD may wait until after 10:00 am.

NZD/USD

Short anywhere or 0.6543 and 0.6518 to target 0.6293.

Highs 0.6584, Lows 0.6394

Entry off 41 pips, Profit +49 pips.

A perfect neutral or uncertain price market.

Looking at close today around 0.6373.

Strategy. Maintain short strategy until target achieves particularly when upper end currency EUR/USD is overbought as well as NZD/CAD.

NZD/CAD

Short anywhere or 0.8747 and 0.8759 to target 0.8568, caution 0.8594.

Highs 0.8795, Lows 0.8714

Entry off 36 pips, Profit 45 pips from 0.8759.

Neutral or uncertain price market.

Strategy. Maintain shorts until target achieves. I'm looking at close around 0.8640 and this means + 100 ish pips for interested.

Overall, EUR/USD, NZD/USD and NZD/CAD began the week overbought and maintained overbought status all week. Worst trading market is overbought prices to trade more overbought or oversold to oversold because it forces add a lot and possible extra day or 2 until target achieves  But add additional lot also means quicker profits from 2nd lot and either break even on 1st lot or hold both lots to target.

If 1 lot was added to EUR/USD at 1.1421 highs, profit today is +142 pips and +52 pips on the 1st lot for total 194 pips.

BoJ recap: A pause for now... but Japan has entered a new inflation phase
The Bank of Japan left its short-term policy rate unchanged at 1.25% but delivered a distinctly hawkish message on the risk of an inflation overshoot.

The 2% inflation target came from a throwaway remark. It now moves trillions
The Federal Reserve's 2% inflation goal grew out of an off-the-cuff remark by a New Zealand politician in 1988. Bond investors still price long-term US debt as if 2% holds, so a change in how the Fed measures inflation would move markets.
