    Why did it start going up at 9am EST ? Up about 40 pips so far. I notice European markets were up and US equity index futures were up.

    It'd be nice to have a continuing thread of EUR/USD like the YM thread.

    Bloomberg just said Bush may appoint a successor to Greenspan soon, possibly today. It'll probably be Bernanke.

    What would the effect of this be on EUR/USD and the dollar in general?

    Edit:

    According to one source, this may be one reason why the market is higher today. Short-covering.

    I don't remember if people thought Bernanke would be hawkish on rates or not. Might make more sense if he wasn't.

    Edit#2:

    Press conference at 1pm EST ? Rumored that it will be to announce Greenspan's successor.

    Forgot...

    After Greenspan et al. visited China, China recently said something about a gradual revaluation. This is supposed to be helping the Yen and hurting the dollar. The euro being equal, this would make EUR/USD go up.

    It has been consolidating between a falling 30-day average and the 1.1900’s for a month now. Let's see if it touches the average (1.2080-90) and then moves back down to the 1.1900’s again...

    How do you define/calculate your fair values?

     
  7. They are the Centriod (Average...but theoratical)
    I use my own center of Gravity Models...

    actual prices Revolve around them...simply to Balance

    to calcualte them have to use Non-Linear Models
     
  8. Plus
    if High/Close and Low/Close--average are for weekly then
    1.010797788 0.987861175

    EURUSD
    High= 1.2127*1.010797788
    Low=1.2127*0.987861175
    roughly....... 1.1979 for the low this week
    1.2127 if is OK for average close...
    In general I won't sell it here
     
  9. Still 10pips spread with Oanda by now? Usually should be 2 pips one hour ago.

    I may be wrong but I was thinking their spreads tightened at 8:pM ET.
