Forex Fundamental Analysis – 08 January 2008

Posted on January 8, 2008

Fundamental Analysis

Tuesday, January 08th, 2008 (10:00 a.m. New York Time) USA
At 10 a.m. we will have U.S. Pending Home Sales coming out. It is expected to come out at -0.3%. I think we need to be more conservative on this report and use 5.0 trigger. If it comes out at 4.7% or higher, that would be positive for the U.S. dollar, and I would buy USD/JPY, looking for 30 pips move or more. If it comes out at -5.3 or more negative, I would sell USD/JPY and expect a move of 30 pips or more in the first hour of the report.

Tuesday, January 08th, 2008 (7:30 p.m. New York Time) AUSTRALIA
Then at 7:30 p.m. we will have Australian Retail Sales m/m coming out. It is expected to come out at 0.5%. I would trade 0.4 trigger on this one. If it comes out at 0.1% or lower, I would sell AUD/USD and expect 30 pips move. If it comes out at 0.9% or higher, that would be very positive for the AUD so you can buy AUD/USD and expect 30 pips move or more. Last month the number really overreacted and we saw 77 pips move on -0.4 deviation but in earlier releases sometimes you got a little more than 20 pips so be careful despite of December release. I think 30 pips is a good expectation – if you get more, great.

Daily Market Comment – 08 January 2008

Posted on January 8, 2008

Daily Market Comment

EUR-USD

1.4695. Current fall is near an end of wave around 1.4641 – 1.4673 zone, a rally should then procede to above 1.4725 or 1.4747. Fall below 1.4606 would cancel this scenario.

USD-CHF

1.1164. Current rise seems to be over near 1.1178 or 1.1213 for a retracement towards 1.1142 – 1.1118 area.

USD-JPY

109.18. A correction down to 108.56 folowed buy a mouve up to 109.46 or 109.77. A break above 110.35 would accelerate this bullish move.

GBP-USD

1.9699. It should register further gains to 1.9752 while 1.965 caps downside attempts. Stop loss below 1.9601 zone.

EUR-CHF

1.6405. A corrective/consolidation activity between 1.6347 and 1.6482 is likely for a while.

EUR-JPY

160.44. N/A

EUR-GBP

0.7460. It is likely to attempt to below 0.7421 while below 0.7460 – 0.7461 area. Rise above 0.7480 would dampen this bearish expectation.

AUD-USD

0.8728. It should test 0.8751 area after which a sell off down to 0.8691 or extended to 0.8653 area is expected.

USD-CAD

1.0047. While below 1.0095 it is more likely to fall further towards 1.0009 or 0.9985. Premature rise above 1.0095 could see it rising above 1.0142 zone.
