We were guilty of being too aggressive yesterday

S&P 500 (Mar 13) INTRADAY Review We had a bearish strategy yesterday to reflect the technical and fundamental picture which suddenly turned heavily negative on Wednesday evening after the FOMC minutes were released. Our short entry level at 1506.50 was spot on with the high of the afternoon being one tick above here. From there the S&P trended lower for the majority of the US session and bottomed out 2 ticks above our second profit target at 1494.50. Strategy We go into the final

Spot Euro, Eurostoxx, FTSE 100, Spot USDJPY, Dax, E-Mini S&P

Forecast for 22nd February 2013 Spot Euro EURUSD broke the 7 month uptrend line support at 1.3245 for a test of 1.3187/83 Fibonacci support & bounced just below at 1.3161. Today we expect a recovery with targets of 1.3246 & then 1.3295/1.3310. This is tough resistance & may cap the bounce. However if we see further strength look for 1.3370/80 which we see as a very good selling opportunity with a stop above 1.3440. Support at 1.3180/60. Again a chance of a bounce but a break lower

Further momentum to correction

Commodities: After extensive sales on Wednesday, commodities regained a bit of positive momentum yesterday. A clear signal that the movement is not fundamentally based. On the other hand, it has also been indicated that investors are ready to close the positions – they are not certain of the upturn. Europe: PMIs disappointed markedly and sent down risky assets. A general improvement of the European PMIs was expected yesterday. But the expectations were not met – on the contrary. PMI data for

We had a long preference for yesterday’ session

S&P 500 (Mar 13) INTRADAY Review We had a long preference for yesterday’ session looking for a continuation of the extended grind higher but we were the victims of the FOMC minutes delivering surprisingly hawkish information that triggered a ‘QE-Off’ trade. The minutes of January’s FOMC meeting released last night at 19.00GMT contained the sentence: ’Many officials were concerned about the costs and risks of further asset purchases, as the Fed buys securities at a pace of $85bln a month.

Forecast for 21st February 2013 Spot USDJPY USDJPY managed a bounce to resistance at 93.75 but not much further as anticipated.
