Lira crisis: continues tightening between 5.8 & 7 Dollars +NewsHello my dear Turkish Lira traders & everyone else who is interested in the ongoing Turkish Lira crisis.
As always, we look at the fundamental news first, and second at the technical analysis.
Important fundamentals:
-The Turkish government has ruled that exporters might convert 80% of their foreign exchange revenue into Lira within 180 days
-The central bank has already announced tightening policy coming next week, and thus, has set the bar pretty high (president Erdogan is, at least in front of the camera, against interest rate hikes)
-Potential war in Idlib/Syria: The Turkish society sees Syrian refugees already as a drain on the economy, connecting it to the demise of the Lira. Obviously another attack in Syria, which leeds to another inflush of refugees, could lead to further tentions. Germany's foreign minister is visiting Turkey right now in order for potential help in the attack scenario
Have fun watching! ;)

TRY
USD/TRY 1H Chart: Bullish momentumThe Turkish Lira has been depreciating against the US Dollar in an ascending channel since the middle of August.
Currently, the rate is being supported by the 55– and 100-hour SMAs on the 1H time-frame. Given that technical indicators flash bullish signals both in the short and the long terms, it is expected that the pair could go to the upper boundary of given channel. Two important levels to look out for are the weekly R1 at 6.9350 and the Fibonacci 0.00% retracement at 7.0213.
However, from a theoretical point of view, the exchange rate should aim for the lower boundary of the ascending channel.

USD May Start Short Term Bearish Rally After ATHI am expecting drop between 5.20 - 5.40 due to Turkish Government's precautions against USD. 5.20 - 5.40 is safe zone to buy.
Also when technically analysed, it can be seen that there is a rising wedge, which notifies bearish trend.
Not a trading advice.
EUR/TRY 1H Chart: Upside potential apparentThe Euro has been trading in an ascending channel against the Turkish Lira since the beginning of current week.
As apparent on the chart, the Euro has reached the upper boundary of this pattern. In addition, technical indicators are in favour of bullish scenario. These two factors allow to think that a breakout is due in the nearest future.
Traders should look out for the 0.00% Fiboncacci retracement at the 8.103 mark. In case, this mark is not breached, it is likely that the bearish sentiment takes over the pair.
CARRY TRADE CYCLES Carry Trade is the one of the most stylish trading system.Example on 1 years :
UK interest rates = 0,74
Turkey interest rates = 23
If i lend money with GBP and if i invest in Turkey 2Y bonds my real income is :
23 - 0,74 = 22,26 (%) (yearly)
Because of i invested with hot money , Turkish lira will get high and i can buy more Pounds if i want to get interest yield again. If im a good trader or a investment bank , my risk is so so low . Otherwise i can buy a lot of pounds with strong Turkish Lira and get high interest rate when i sell my Turkish lira, Turkish lira gets cheap and this time i can get a lot of Turkish lira again. This cycle is so profitable and suitable for community trading psychology. So carry traders transform market makers and every movements have affect for market making and it is more profitable and secure. But for an English invester, if Turkish economy get worse, even Turkish lira getting cheap and interests are not incresing or devaluations like Turkish lira got a few days ago or interests rates in dangerous places (%23 - %25 means %100 ROE in 4 years) everything getting more worse with double affect, fiat and interest rates opposite correlation lost and everything getting so much risky.
This is an example on historical data. I choosed Pound because UK's interest rates are more lower than USA.This idea will show why last year :GBPTRY drops a lot and this year is different. Let's see Turkish Lira's different between market conditions conveinent for Carry Trading or opposite.Best regards.
Target to the space... in case a weekly close above 6.40.A reversal pattern has appeared on the weekly chart. Low volume in corrective waves was the first sign of the higher prices are coming. A weekly close above the 7 will not let the price below it easily. The price can retest 7 after hitting the 8. But ultimately, it will stall around 7.8 or above.
Least path of resistance and low volume! Higher prices are closeMACD crossed and very low volume phase started. No hard selling or any action that changes the price. While the weekly chart looks like a bearish flag, the daily chart is telling me something will happen soon. Watch for 20 moving average. It isn't going to be taken down easily. In the first higher high green daily candle, it is a but for surge with a stop loss below the last red candle. Try to take a position on the 20 SMA, if you intend to take a position. here is not a lot of resistance on the path of a new high around 7.6.
Economic Warfare? Lira in 4H equilibriumHello my dear Lira traders! :)
Fundamentals: The language between the US & Turkey is getting harsher. National security advisor John Bolton came out and said that Turkey is making a huge mistake by not releasing pastor Brunson. Ibrahim Kalin, spokesperson for president Erdogan, is now speaking of 'economic warfare' against a NATO ally.
Technical Analysis: We're in an equilibrium between the ranges of 6 & 6.2. Should we break higher, we have 6.33 as the upper wick of the previous move to take out first.
Have fun watching! ;)

Regression analysis from break up candle.New trend formed. Recent manipulations won't change the target. 15 years of economic deficit releases the energy. Although short term actions suppressed the trend, Turkey hasn't changed it's economy policy. The results will be seen on the chart soon. The reason for plunge in TRY isn't Bruson or any other reason but the wrong economic policies. Sanctions and problems with US only changes the speed of the surge. In the intermediate run i can see clearly that the USDTRY will remain over 7.5 and maybe 10ish soon. I hope Turkey can figure out a way from the hole they dig. The most likely the solution is lowering the wages and salaries. Reducing the expenditures and stop doing constructions with a pledged profit. At this point, borrowing money and using this money for manufacturing, tourism and agriculture can be a solution. However, the political environment has worsen recently. Foreign investors escaped and not planning to return. The country listed as 150th safe place to visit in spectator index. So far, the policy that they devoted their life was played a major role for recession. Now higher interest rates won't be able to stop it. Very high inflation levels are coming. Unfortunately, tax payer citizens will suffer very badly. I almost dropped tear during the economic fall. But the economy is no joke and doesn't care about feelings. I hope to analyze the chart in the reverse fashion in the future.
