Hey Team.
This weeks results.
USD: +14.79%
CAD: +7.02%
JPY : +6.81%
AUD: +5.28%
NZD: -4.97%
GBP: -5.61%
EUR: -10.33%
CHF: -13.06%
So for the week the Comms were over Majors by +7.4%
But then there was NFP Friday. And as I was looking at the USD, I found some very interesting facts, about NFP. I went back and compared Feb. NFP to Mar NFP. The USD against everyone. All the differences. This is the big picture, aggregate, parallelism, perspective.
This is the USD against: and what happened in between both of them
—[B]COMMS:[/B]—
[B]CAD[/B] – NFP day (Feb) result was +90 pips (USD+)
–RANGED–(+93 pips, -134 pips)
NFP day (Mar) result +122 pips
[B]AUD[/B] – NFP day (Feb) result was +10 pips (USD+)
–RANGED–(+94 pips, -67)
NFP day (Mar) result +184 (USD+)
[B]NZD[/B] – NFP day (Feb) result was +61 pips (USD+)
–BEAR MARKET-- -245 pips
NFP day (Mar) result +152 (USD +)
—[B]MAJORS:[/B]—
[B]EUR[/B] – NFP day (Feb) result was +158 pips (USD+)
–RANGED, first 2.5 weeks, then BULL MARKET last week and half.
NFP day (Mar) result +194 pips (USD+)
[B]GBP[/B] – NFP day (Feb) result was +87 pips (USD+)
–BEAR MARKET, up until the last week and 2 days, then turned BULL for USD.
NFP day (Mar) +227 pips (USD+)
[B]CHF[/B] --Nothing but BULL MARKET for USD.
[B]JPY[/B] --NFP day (Feb) result was +155 pips (USD+)
–RANGED, to slightly higher
NFP day (Mar) result was +64 pips (USD+)
So was BEARISH against GBP, and NZD.
Was RANGING against JPY, EUR, CAD, AUD.
Was BULLISH against CHF.
Interesting is the close of NFP Feb is the same as the close of NFP Mar, for the NZD. It went up much then came back all in the last 2 days of this week.
Against the GBP, the open of NFP Feb is the same as the open of NFP Mar. Same scenario as NZD.
It sure does look like this past month was a big ranging of the USD. And now it all came back to where we left off of last month. This time I just wonder if it’s gonna be different, and now continue on with the trending high for the USD.
But…if they show signs of weakness, then it’ll probably go back to ranging for another month.
I think they have the momentum going now. Probably use that to break some major support zones now.
(That sure did fool me) (month long retracement)
