Trading the News: ECB Minimum Bid Rate (based on the article)


  • "The European Central Bank (ECB) interest rate decision may fail to generate a meaningful market reaction as the Governing Council is widely anticipated to retain the zero-interest rate policy (ZIRP) in June, but the fresh batch of central bank rhetoric may drag on EUR/USD should President Mario Draghi and Co. keep the door open to implement more non-standard measures."
  • "The Euro may struggle to hold its ground should the ECB show a greater willingness to further embark on its easing cycle, but the single-currency may catch a bid if the Governing Council largely endorses a wait-and-see approach all the while the monetary union returns to its historical role as a net-creditor to the rest of the world."

Daily price is on bearish for the ranging near bullish reversal within narrow support/resistance levels:

  • 1.1242 resistance level located above Senkou Span line which is the virtual border between the primary ebarish and the primary bullish trend on the chart, and
  • 1.1105 support level located below Ichimoku clioud in the primary bearish area.


If the price breaks 1.1242 level on close daily bar so the bullish reversal of the price movement will be started on the secondary ranging way. If not so the price will be continuing on the bearish ranging within the levels.


M30 price is located above 200 period SMA for the bullish market condition within 1.1219 resistance and 1.1190 support levels.

If the price breaks 1.1190 support level to below so the secondary correction within the primary bullish condition will be started.
If the price breaks 1.1149 support level so we may see the bearish reversal of the price movement.
If the price breaks 1.1219 resistance so the intra-day bullish trend will be continuing.

Trading News Events: U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls (adapted from the article)
  • "A 160K expansion in U.S. Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) paired with a downtick in the jobless rate may boost the appeal of the greenback and spur a larger pullback in EUR/USD as it fuels expectations for an imminent Fed rate-hike."
  • "The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) may implement higher borrowing-costs over the coming months especially as the U.S. economy approaches ‘full-employment,’ but signs of stagnant wage growth may encourage the central bank to further delay its normalization cycle as officials warn ‘survey-based measures of longer-run inflation expectations were little changed, on balance, in recent months, while market-based measures of inflation compensation were still low.’"


Bullish USD Trade
  • "Need red, five-minute candle following the NFP print to consider a short trade on EUR/USD."
  • "If market reaction favors a bullish dollar trade, sell EUR/USD with two separate position."
  • "Set stop at the near-by swing high/reasonable distance from entry; look for at least 1:1 risk-to-reward."
  • "Move stop to entry on remaining position once initial target is hit; set reasonable limit."
Bearish USD Trade
  • "Need green, five-minute candle to favor a long EUR/USD trade."
  • "Implement same setup as the bullish dollar trade, just in the opposite direction."


Daily price is located near and above SMA with period 200 (200 SMA) for the bullish market condition with the ranging within the following support/resistance levels:

  • 1.1226 resistance located above 200 SMA in the bullish area of the chart, and
  • 1.1097 support level located on the border between the primary bearish and the primary bullish trend.

RSI indicator is estimating the secondary correction to be continuing up to the possible bearish reversal on the secondary ranging way.

  • If the price will break 1.1226 resistance level on close daily bar so the primary bullish trend will be continuing.
  • If price will break 1.1097 support on close daily bar so the reversal of the price movement from the ranging bullish to the primary bearish trend will be started.
  • If not so the price will be ranging within the levels.

Intra-Day Fundamentals: Signals from Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen about the US central bank's next rate-hike after payroll data shocks

2016-06-06 16:30 GMT | [USD - Fed Chair Yellen Speaks]

[USD - Fed Chair Yellen Speaks] = Speech about the economic outlook and monetary policy at the World Affairs Council of Philadelphia's luncheon.

==========

  • "Expectations for the next Fed rate hike were knocked back to at least July or later after US non-farm payroll data on Friday showed US employers added only 38,000 jobs in May, far below expectations of 164,000."
  • "At an event on Monday in Philadelphia, Yellen gets her last chance to offer insight into Fed thinking before a media blackout takes effect ahead of the June 14-15 monetary policy meeting."
  • "We will have to listen carefully for her analysis of what definitely is a deterioration of the labor market conditions," economists at BNP Paribas wrote in a note.

==========

Credit Agricole:

  • "On the day, investors will pay close attention to the speech by Fed Chair Yellen in Philadelphia looking for clues about the impact of the latest data on the bank's outlook for the economy. Evidence that the FOMC has turned more cautious yet again, could prolong the bout USD weakness."
  • "Against the background of lingering global growth concerns, we expect the USD to be particularly vulnerable against EUR, JPY, gold and, to a lesser extent, CHF."
  • "At the same time, we maintain our bearish outlook for the G10 commodity currencies and see the latest weaker than expected economic data as corroborating that view."

==========

Live blog and video of Janet Yellen’s speech in Philadelphia:

"The overall labor market situation has been quite positive. In that context, this past Friday’s labor market report was disappointing. Payroll gains were reported to have been much smaller in April and May than earlier in the year, averaging only about 80,000 per month. And while the unemployment rate was reported to have fallen further in May, that decline occurred not because more people had jobs but because fewer people reported that they were actively seeking work."

EUR/USD Fundamentals: ECB President Draghi Speaks and 10 pips ranging price movement; 1.1410 resistance level to be broken for the daily bullish trend continuation

2016-06-09 07:00 GMT | [EUR - ECB President Draghi Speaks]

[EUR - ECB President Draghi Speaks] = The speech at the Brussels Economic Forum.

==========

"The objective of the ECB is defined as delivering a rate of inflation below but close to 2% over the medium term. But the medium term is not a fixed period of time. When faced with adverse shocks, the pace at which monetary policy can bring inflation back to the objective depends on two factors: the nature of the shock itself, and the conditions in which monetary policy operates."

"Summing up, there is a large degree of interaction between monetary policy and other policies that may in principle be geared towards different objectives. Such interactions do not prevent a determined central bank from achieving its objective. But they do affect the time frame over which we can do so. What this implies is that, for stabilisation to occur no more slowly than is strictly necessary, all policy areas have a role to play."
