USDTRY trade ideas

Is Turkish Lira in trouble ?When we read about a currency is plunging against another currency (usually the USD), what we are really saying is there is more supplies of Lira flooding the market. That means 1 USD will get you more TRY (lira) than before. Who is this good for ? Of course , those who has a stronger currency and can get much more LIRA to spend be it food, transport, assets purchases, etc. So, from the chart point of view, you can see that the higher the price shoots up , the weaker is lira against USD. And of course, for its residents who are keen to buy overseas goods, that means they need more LIRA to pay for it. That explains why Apple has to halt its online sales.

Turkish Lira (USDTRY)Economy keeps crashing in the hands of "strong man" Erdogan, who has fired every Head of Turkish Central Bank who tried to stop him fulfill his own Turkish Dream of hyperinflation in which business is no longer possible as the cost of imports and commodities rises daily. Erdogan's genius policy in a world where growth and investment is stalling is to keep slashing interest rates in the hope of stimulating investment in Turkey's economy... oh and getting his loyal supporters to hand out dollar bills in loyal neighbourhoods so that the people can burn them in front of TV cameras. This country of 85 million has no economic policy at all anymore. It is a total basket case and failed state in the making. Get out! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell! --- Taylor

Turkish Bubble, how it formed and why it will keep deflatingThe Turkish Bubble. How it formed and why it will probably keep deflating for years to come. In short, Turkey was motivated to modernize its economy in the wake of Greece's adoption of the Euro which solved Greece's inflation problem overnight. Turkey proceeded to revalue its currency essentially by removing six zeros from its banknotes. It also made a pledge not to print money but to pursue growth via foreign investment. This took advantage of cheap money in Europe and North America that was eager for medium risk with high reward investment opportunities. The economy grew rapidly with much new construction and many new tech and service industries being developed. Of course as time goes on investments become more risky and less rewarding. This was embodied in the person of Erdogan who steered Turkey away from social and political alignment with Europe and started to pursue unorthodox economic policies based on Islamic doctrine. At the same time, foreign investment in Turkey began to dry up as local businesses began to default on debts. This weakness was seized upon by the market that proceeded to short the Lira until the massive selloff in December 2021, which marked a multi-decade capitulation. Turkey has now spent all of its foreign reserves propping up its currency. In addition, the Erdogan government has promised to compensate Turkish citizens who decide to keep their savings in Lira. This can only be paid for if the government breaks its promise on issuing bonds and, since they would be essentially worthless right now, only the Turkish central bank will buy them. This is how we print money out of nothing. Brrrrrrrrr To recap, the Turkish Bubble was made possible by currency manipulation and cheap foreign money. The raising of interests rates in Europe and North America, as well as the printing of money by the Turkish government, means that the bubble cannot be sustained going forwards. It will take a long time, but the inflation of the 1990s will one day return to Turkey.

USDTRY-MT SELL strategyIt is way overdone for all time frames, and especially weekly and monthly chart. I have not changed my view, but as mentioned many times, the time it will correct may be only 4-9 months time. The short period coming 1-2 months I suspect we see recover 12.50-12.75, whilst long term 10.50-9.00. I know this conflicts with many people's ideas, and some comparison I receive, clearly shows that not all are in the market trading. Some have good fundamental idea of the pair, and that is appreciated of course. Technically we will see it correct and the pressure should be relieved. My view is SELL current 17.20-17.50 and add again above 18.50. Very low leverages, and for those in need to cover TRY 6-9 months best to do this gradually now.

USD/TRY's dramatic intervened drop is stablising around 11.0000The USD/TRY pair extended its dramatic turnaround from a record high touched earlier this week and continued losing ground through the mid-European session on Thursday. This marked the fourth successive day of a negative move and dragged spot prices to a six-week low, around the 10.20 region in the last hour. The pair, however, found some support at lower levels and quickly bounced back above the 11.00 round-figure mark. The Turkish lira's recent strong gains came after the government announced extraordinary measures on Monday, which include the introduction of a new program to protect savings from currency fluctuations. Adding to this, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the government and the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey (CBRT) would guarantee certain local currency deposits against losses from FX depreciation. Erdoğan also reassured that citizens would not have to convert lira savings into foreign exchange due to volatility and emphasized that Turkey is committed to the free market economy. The President further underlined that Turkey is adamant about its new economic model and stuck to his unconventional policy to use lower interest rates to combat inflation. Nevertheless, the lira remains on track to record its best weekly gains ever, of around 40% and seemed rather unaffected by a modest pickup in US dollar demand. That said, extremely overstretched conditions prompted some short-covering amid relatively thin liquidity ahead of the year-end holiday season. - USD/TRY remained under intense selling pressure for the fourth successive day on Thursday. - The recent measures announced by the Turkish government continued lending support to the lira. - Extremely overstretched conditions prompted intraday short-covering move amid thin liquidity. >Dollar Edges Lower as Confidence Over Omicron Supports High Yielders The dollar traded marginally lower early in the European session Thursday, near a one-week low, amid growing optimism for the global economic outlook despite the surge of Omicron-variant Covid cases. At 2:50 AM ET (0750 GMT), the Dollar Index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six other currencies, fell 0.1% to 96.043, having earlier fallen to 96.018 for the first time since Dec. 17. USD/JPY rose 0.1% to 114.19, with the yen, another safe haven, slipping despite Japan upgrading earlier Thursday its growth projections for the next fiscal year starting in April. The growth projection was raised to 3.2% for fiscal 2022 from a forecast 2.2% real GDP growth seen at a mid-year review in July. This would be the fastest growth since fiscal 2010. EUR/USD rose 0.1% to 1.1338, adding to its overnight advance, GBP/USD climbed 0.1% to 1.3354, while the risk-sensitive AUD/USD rose 0.1% to 0.7218, after Wednesday’s surge of almost 1%. Risk sentiment has improved as the week has progressed, helped by a couple of studies suggesting that patients with the Omicron variant face a lower risk of hospitalization and severe disease compared with the Delta variant, the previously dominant strain. Also helping was the release of positive U.S. economic data on Wednesday, with GDP growing 2.3% quarter-on-quarter in the third quarter and existing home sales rising 1.9% in November. However, it was U.S. consumer confidence improving more than expected in December despite the resurgence in Covid-19 infections which had the biggest impact. “Expectations about short-term growth prospects improved, setting the stage for continued growth in early 2022. The proportion of consumers planning to purchase homes, automobiles, major appliances, and vacations over the next six months all increased,” said a Conference Board spokeswoman. The economic data slate is packed Thursday, including initial jobless claims, new home sales, durable goods orders, and the PCE price index. It also includes personal income and spending, as well as the University of Michigan consumer sentiment and expectations indexes. Elsewhere, USD/TRY dropped 1.8% to 11.8270, with the lira continuing to rebound after President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said Wednesday that measures to protect the Turkish lira bank deposits from depreciation amid a currency crisis have achieved their goal. That said, the currency is still about 40% down so far this year after a series of interest rate cuts, engineered by the president, despite inflation soaring over 20%. Elsewhere, the Russian ruble rose to its highest level in over a month ahead of President Vladimir Putin's annual press conference, against a backdrop of continued tension on the Ukrainian border, where over 100,000 Russian troops have massed. Analysts will want to see whether Putin repeats to a more general audience the hawkish comments that he made to his defense chiefs earlier in the week. >USD/TRY's dramatic intervened drop is stablising around 12.0000 USD/TRY is stabilising following three consecutive days of falling prices that have wiped out the November rally. At the time of writing, USD/TRY is trading at 12.0354 and in between an 11.9655 and 12.0828 range so far. President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan ordered the Turkish central bank to start reducing interest rates earlier in the year which led to the currency falling around 50% since September. Inflation rose 21.31% in November compared to the same period last year. On a monthly basis inflation rose 3.51% compared to October. The president insisted on four interest rate cuts over the four months despite surging inflation and the market responded in kind. However, on Monday 20 December the TRY weakened significantly when President Erdoğan said in a televised speech that he will continue cutting interest rates after rates were cut by 100 basis points. This took the rate to -6%, the lowest in the world and the TRY to the weakest level since the 1980s. However, there was a dramatic comeback in the currency when the government announced a series of measures to support the currency on Monday. Amongst other measures, including direct FX forward contracts from the central bank for companies heading overseas business, Erdoğan explained that the government will protect lira deposits by making up for the losses incurred. TRY has rallied, and the plan is working, so far. However, if the president is intent on cutting rates in an inflationary environment, then the lira will be left vulnerable to further weakness. Technicals are futile under such fundamental drivers and wild price action as this, but nevertheless, if there is to be stability, then the range are between 11.0000 - 14.0000 . - BUYING PRESSURE PRICE 10.2000 - 11.3000 - Our option for #USDTRY is TO WAIT FOR BUYERS DECISION PRICE ACTION WITH A CONFIRMATION. - Economy BUBBLE has happened or is close to !! - The outlook and the overall trend for the pair is BULLISH.

USD/TRY Targeting above 20.0000 | Q2 Q3Economists look for further sharp Turkish lira depreciation. They forecast the USD/TRY above the 20.00 level in the second quarter of the year. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬: “We think that USD/TRY will rise to 16.25 by end-Q1 and breach well over 20 in Q2. However, this is when we expect the CBRT to start tightening, which should help bring the pair down to around 19 by end-Q2.” “𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐫𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐞 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐨 𝐟𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬.” “𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟑 𝐨𝐧𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬, 𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐓𝐑𝐘 𝐨𝐧 𝐚 𝐰𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲.” The Turkish lira halted its depreciation in levels just below the 14.00 mark vs. the US dollar at the end of the week, all amidst a narrow trading range in USD/TRY. USD/TRY remains poised for extra gains: USD/TRY seems to have met quite a decent barrier near 14.00 the figure on Friday, although it managed to record new highs for the year, nonetheless. In the meantime, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐫𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐲 𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐝𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤, 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐞𝐱𝐚𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐠𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝟏𝟗-𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐛𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝟑𝟔% 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 (𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲). From the Turkish cash markets, yields of the 5y and 10y bonds reverse the recent multi-session weakness and resume the upside to past the 24% mark and just above 23%, respectively. The recent decline in yields have been promoted by purchases of government debt by the Turkish central bank (CBRT) according to latest news. What to look for around TRY: The lira resumed the downtrend while market participants continue to digest the recent inflation figures and the government scheme to protect deposits in the domestic currency. The reluctance of the CBRT to change the (collision?) course and the omnipresent political pressure to favour lower interest rates in the current context of rampant inflation and (very) negative real interest rates are forecast to keep the lira under intense pressure for the time being, That said, another visit to the all-time high north of the 18.00 mark in USD/TRY should not be ruled out just yet. Eminent issues on the back boiler: Progress (or lack of it) of the new scheme oriented to support the lira. Constant government pressure on the CBRT vs. bank’s credibility/independence. Bouts of geopolitical concerns. Much-needed structural reforms. Growth outlook vs. progress of the coronavirus pandemic. Potential assistance from the IMF in case another currency crisis re-emerges. Presidential elections in 2023. 𝐔𝐒𝐃/𝐓𝐑𝐘 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬: So far, the pair is losing 0.24% at 13.7871 and a drop below 12.7523 (weekly low Jan.3) would pave the way for a test of 11.9694 (55-day SMA) and finally 10.2027 (monthly low Dec.23). On the other hand, the next up barrier lines up at 13.8967 (YTD high Jan.3) followed by 18.2582 (all-time high Dec.20) and then 19.0000 (round level).

USDTRY-LTSELLThe pair is well over extended and well, many disagreements on my posts. That is fine, as in the end of the day we are all responsible for our positions. For now, no change in long-term view, and including weekly chart view, that the pair is heavily overbought, and yes inflation is very high, and one should consider the pair as a managed float, does not mean the market condition can continuously drive it upwards. For now SELL current (or add) @ 16.60-16.75 and will update when again. The profit order for medium-term 13.75 for now. The long-term 10.50-9.7500 for now.
