We’re halfway through the first trading day of the week, and it’s time for the Dukascopy Midday Snapshot.
Euro/Dollar has been inching higher, gaining a total of 34 pips, and the pair was point 15% in the green at noon. Traded volume is in line with the monthly average, and the neutral traders’ sentiment stands at 10% short. Bulls have been in better positions so far, although any profits will probably be limited by the narrow rate movement.
The Cable, on the other hand, is off to a bearish start of the week, and a loss of 89 pips left it almost half a percent in the red at midday, with the usual amount of funding. Most traders had actually anticipated the decline, as short positions are up by 16%, and this means that they have had a successful session.
Dollar/Yen is down as well, having lost a total of 51 pips or point 4%. This pair sees the usual amount of funding, and the sentiment is neutral as both sides are at a balance. Still, the rate movement has not been balanced and, indeed, it has been much more favourable for bears.
Pound/Yen has seen an even stronger drop, losing 149 pips, and it was point 88% in the red at 12 o’clock. Trading has been slower than usual, and the neutral trader’s sentiment stands at 10% long. Bears have actually seen some great opportunities for profit, whereas bulls faced losses.
And Euro/Yen’s single biggest move was posted after 8 o’clock, when it dropped by 51 pips. The pair was point 25% down from the opening level after 12 hours of trading. Traded volume is the usual for this pair, and the sentiment is neutral at 10% short. Bears had their chances in the second part of the session.
