ORBEX: Dollar Weakness Drives Euro and Yen Higher!In today’s #marketinsights video recording, I talk about EURUSD and USDJPY FX Majors
Both major pairs were affected by incoming trade war flows, following China's rather pessimistic view on proceeding with a phase-1 of a potential trade deal.
Euro could move towards 1.11 round resistance and yen could push the dollar down near the 108 round support.
The above scenarios have validating signals that you can find watching this video!

ORBEX: EQUITIES REACH FRESH ALL TIME HIGHS!In today’s marketinsights video recording, I talk about SPX and DXY .
SPX keeps hitting fresh highs despite Fed's message to keep rates on hold until 2020. Trade wars do seem to be influencing flows more than anything else right now? Whatever the case, sharp upside and overbought hints to exhaustion!
The DXY's recent upside though should be watched closely. It's either an expanded flat or a zig-zag correction, so, could expect either a decline or a correction.

EUR,USD,JPY Go Nuts After ECB! Fed, BoJ Expectations More DovishIn today's #marketinsights video recording I analyse EURUSD and USDJPY!
Euro, dragged lower by the reinstation of the QE programme, was able to reverse post-ECB losses on the back of:
- Limited rate cut compared to markets expectations (only 10 basis points)
- Draghi's call on governments for fiscal stimulus (supporting EA economies?)
- Widening yield differential against the dollar (ECB can't move lower, Fed can)
- Expectations that the Fed will cut next week (a weaker dollar)
On the other hand, the yen was also negatively affected by ECB's decision to ease. But with an ultraloose policy in the books for quite a number of years now anyway, easing would be worst in Japan rather than in the US. Hence the bullishness in USDJPY!
