Noteworthy News

  • Fed Member Bullard this morning stating that there is no reason to continue pressing rates, you would think that this would be negative for the dollar, Bullard is an eternal “bear” though and so the market will rather hear what Yellen has to say tonight before we get a move.

Recap

We waited patiently over the weekend for any type of feedback of the US-China meetings held in Washington, it had all the makings of some fireworks. Nothing materialised and judging by stories over Bloomberg, it would seem as though the two have become good friends – I am waiting patiently for the fall out though.

The late flurry into US yields and indirectly into the greenback late on Friday was largely extended into the Asian session this morning, the move was more subdued though. The move on Friday has meant that we may have some nice technical set ups forming for this shortened week, I do think that the market may hold out for the Fed Chair Yellen speech tonight before we see this move materialize.

I cover all the pairs in the video this morning as there are some nice formations starting to take place, I show you where the levels are starting to take shape – some of them Fib levels forming from the US elections in November.
