Correction in Bitcoin Price? / Currencies / Bitcoin
By: Mike_McAra
In short: no speculative positions.
The road to a Bitcoin ETF has proved to be pretty challenging for the Winklevoss twins. First mentioned in 2013, the ETF has yet to be approved by the SEC, more than 2 years after the initial filing. In the recent days, the filing was amended to change the exchange the ETF would be traded on. On the Forbes website, we read:
In their three-year-long quest to offer a Bitcoin ETF, twin brothers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss made several amendments to their regulatory filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission Wednesday.
After initially deciding to list the proposed Winklevoss Bitcoin Trust (which would go by the ticker symbol COIN) on Nasdaq, they’ve switched to BATS Global Markets, which has become a popular choice for newly launched ETFs and is known for a having technologically advanced exchange.

Forex Trading: EUR/JPY Trying to Stabilize After Drop / Currencies / Euro
By: Richard_Cox
Forex markets have been taken by surprise with the amount of volatility that has been seen in recent weeks. There are strong fundamental reasons for why this has occurred, as it has been almost impossible to avoid media coverage of the recent ‘Brexit’ events. But now that we have some finality in these areas, it is time to take a step back and assess what is actually happening to prices so that traders have an indication of what to expect going forward.

Brexit’s Big Loser? Japan / Currencies / Japanese Yen
By: John_Rubino
One of the first results of Britain’s voting to leave the European Union was a sharply lower pound. Which means the UK is now winning the currency war. Henceforth its exports will be cheaper around the world, enabling its major companies to sell more stuff, make more money and hire more people. Inflation will pop, lessening the burden of government and consumer debts, and — other things being equal — growth will be faster.

British Pound BrExit Crash Wins Britain Currency War! / Currencies / British Pound
By: Nadeem_Walayat
The mainstream press is in a state of hysteria, panic even following the plunge in the British Pound from a Thursday night high of £/$1.50 to currently stand at £/$ 1.32. Whilst yes the 12% downwards plunge from £/$1.50 is in forex markets terms HUGE, a move not seen the likes of for many decades that takes the dollar exchange rate down to levels last seen in 1985. Nevertheless the mainstream press has missed one fundamental fact for the obvious reason that they just DO NOT understand the financial markets and what the market movements actually mean or translate into.

Does BREXIT Matter? Outlook for Sterling / Currencies / British Pound
By: Marc_Horn
This I want to use as an example of MWA so you can get a feel of how and why.....in my previous article I said BREXIT and your vote is only an illusion.
The overview last 3 pivots of same fractal - don't worry you will get to see them - they will become pretty obvious with practice and application of the rules and theory. The green ML is the target for a healthy wave 1 on the next smaller fractal. Failure to reach ML with break of MLL is weakness and the target then becomes SP to the high MLL or WL-1. The break is confirmed with a break of the lowest pivot or highest pivot depending on the trend.

By: Marc_Horn
The BREXIT vote is only a few days away and will have a profound impact on the future of the globe we are lead to believe.
Stalin's first criteria has been met - the illusion that the people are involved in the outcome suffices.

EUR-USD : Strong Jobs Numbers Suggest Fed Reluctance to Raise US Interest Rates / Currencies / US Dollar
By: Submissions
Options Shark writes: In spite of currently dismal employment numbers, Janet Yellen, Federal Reserve Chair, has announced that federal interest rates will increase. Economists expect to see changes as late as September or July of this year; some believe the rate could be raised as much as twice. Prior to December, the federal interest rate was a steady 0% for the previous seven years; the current rate is 0.5%. The raise in December was monumental after the economy steadily climbed thanks to the central bank’s decision to lower the rate to zero.

By: Mike_McAra
In short: no speculative positions.
Bitcoin is on the move up. New “reasons” are being dug up for the appreciation. In a Bloomberg article, we read:

Fed Stance Likely to Pressure US Dollar, GBP Chart View / Currencies / US Dollar
By: Richard_Cox
Financial markets always have an overriding story and if we look at the news headlines that have been generated over the last few months, we can see that the focus is once again back on the Federal Reserve. Market opinions are still sharply divided: If incoming data is consistent with labor market conditions strengthening, an interest rate hike could be foreseen sooner than we think.

Bitcoin after Nonfarm Payroll Data / Currencies / Bitcoin
By: Mike_McAra
In short: no speculative positions.
Bitcoin is on the move up and this is the most prominently featured piece of news as far as the digital currency is concerned. On CoinDesk, we read:
Petar Zivkovski, director of operations at bitcoin trading platform Whaleclub, told CoinDesk that in his view, this correlation with the yuan is being used to sell headlines, and that it may not paint a portrait of what is happening on the ground.
"The theory that the Chinese are buying bitcoin due to yuan devaluation is a nice story to tell, but is in our view incomplete,” he told CoinDesk, adding:

US Dollar Crashes, Gold And Bitcoin Skyrocket As Economic Recovery Lie Is Exposed / Currencies / US Dollar
By: Jeff_Berwick
It’s going to be a long weekend for those holding stocks and believing in the “recovery” lie.
Today, the US government released its jobs report and the market was expecting an additional 200,000 jobs were added in May. Instead, the number came in at a paltry 38,000.
One analyst, Naseem Aslam of Think Forex UK said, “The U.S. nonfarm payroll data was crazy and completely unbelievable and this is the last set of important data before the Fed meeting. When you look at the data set, it really boggles your mind because the unemployment rate has ticked lower. The productivity picture is even more confusing as it is not increasing.”

British Pound Climb Continues Despite Brexit Anxiety Driving GDP Growth to Lowest in Years / Currencies / British Pound
By: AnyOption
While the Pound has recently shrugged off a further tapering in the economy, Brexit fears continue to define the economic climate as evidenced by decelerating household spending and falling business investment. As the vote draws nearer, the economic data is likely to show that the anxiety is becoming more acute, with an even deeper pullback in fundamental activity anticipated. Current forecasts are showing growth retreating even further to a 0.30% pace for the second quarter, a figure that could easily be lower based on the sluggish attitude of consumers and businesses as they await the outcome. In the meantime, the Pound continues to be sensitive to the polling, with expectations of a “Bremain” vote driving the Pound higher, despite the obvious risks to the outlook that could sharply reverse the existing momentum.Read full article...

Bitcoin Trading Alert: Bitcoin Price Stays below $450 / Currencies / Bitcoin
By: Mike_McAra
In short: short speculative positions, target at $153, stop-loss at $515.
Bitcoin has enjoyed a spell of decreased volatility which has led some commentators to draw parallels between the currency and other asset classes, gold being an example. On the Wall Street Journal website, we read:
In April, volatility in bitcoin’s price fell below that of gold for 28 consecutive days, the longest period in its history. Bitcoin volatility also briefly dropped below that of another flight-to-safety trade, the Japanese yen, according to data from FactSet and CoinDesk.
