Weekly Comprehensive Analysis
For The Period January 29th – February 3rd 2017

Previous week
US and UK GDP but the most significant event over the past week was the New Zealand CPI, which came over previous months and over expectations. Markets gave to response to the Washington London meeting. On the other hand, we can find that markets gave a bottom for the GBP and buyers started to long short trades.

Next Week:
          Despite the fact that we are focusing more on the political calendar more than the economic calendar, we don’t ignore it when it comes to the Federal Reserve Bank & Bank of Japan policy statement and interest rates decision.  Fed & BOJ releases are some of punch of news coming next week.  We have also Euro CPI and GDP, US & New Zealand unemployment rate and RBA monetary statement.
           So every day in the week we have very strong motivators for the market; moreover, don’t forget the UK government may give us a new shake for the market by any announcement about the BREXIT.

What I am going to do next week?
          First I had the trade of the NZD/CHF (short). Have a look at the chart.

NZD/CHF [weekly chart]
Kiwi has tested the 61.8 retracement many times forming wedge at the same time. Also there are strong indications on the NZD/JPY pair of reversal, but it depends on what will happe n the ext week.
NZD/JPY [weekly chart]
I am continuing to short NZD/CHF TP: 0.6750 SL: 0.7400, but if you didn’t initiate that trade yet it will be better to wait until the NZD unemployment numbers to decide whether to enter or wait for the next reversal sign.
Also I am interested in two other pair GBP/NZD long – leave it till the next week, and NZD/JPY short. We will discusse them in details next week.
For more medium term and daily signals;

Wishing you successful trading J

COMPREHENSIVE WEEKLY ANALYSIS FOR THE PERIOD BETWEEN JANUARY 15 th – 21th 2017 PREVIOUS WEEK:           May be the economic calendar was empty last week; however we have seen a lot of political actions.  At the week opening an announcement released by the UK prime minister about BREXIT, which made the GBP tumbles. Also we have seen the speech by president elect Trump, and how it made the markets get so volatile.

EU, UK, Canada and New Zealand CPI, in addition to Australian unemployment rate and china GDP.           On the political agenda we have president elect Donald trump inauguration, which will have very bullish shadows on the stock markets an...
WEEKLY COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS FOR THE PERIOD BETWEEN January 22 nd – 27 th , 2017 Previous week: Tough but nice week. I describe it that way because despite that fact that it holds a lot of talks and volatility, but it makes the picture clearer than the previous 2 months. The main points on Mr. Draghi`s speech was that the interest rates are expected to remain unchanged for long period of time with the probability of decreasing it more. Also the APP program will remain at 80B till March through February, and it will be decreased to 60B till the end of 2017. Finally he said that the economic growth in the euro area still dampened by sluggish pace of implementation of structural reforms in the Euro area. Of course the speech made by Mrs. Yellen before the commonwealth club was very hawkish, and may be that what drives me to say that that week made the view clearer. She put it very well  when she said that she and the all of the other members are expecting interest r...
