We’re halfway through this week’s first trading day, so let’s see how things are shaping up in the forex markets.
Euro/Dollar has been inching higher, and a gain of 40 pips left it point 29% in the green at midday. Trading, however, has been slower than usual, and the sentiment is neutral at 5% short. The uptrend makes success more likely for bulls.
The Cable stood point 13% up from the opening level after walking in the total range of 55 pips. Traded volume is 66% up from the monthly average, and the neutral traders’ sentiment stands at 8% short. Success depends on timing as trend was shifting throughout the day.
Dollar/Yen’s initial drop was followed by a gain of 43 pips, which left point 1% in the green after 12 hours of trading. This pair sees the usual amount of funding, and the sentiment is bullish as long positions are up by 22%. Success is likely for most traders.
Pound/Yen’s daily volatility of 62 pips was posted during a rise, and the pair was point 23% up from the opening level at noon. Trading has been active, and the sentiment is neutral at 6% short. Success is more likely for bulls, although bears did have some chances.
And Euro/Yen has been trending North for most of the session, gaining 66 pips. The total gain reached point 4% at 12 o’clock. This pair sees 30% less funding than usual, but the sentiment, much like the rate movement, indeed is bullish at 46% long. This has been a successful session for traders, but higher volume would have increased the profits.
