We have reached the midpoint of the last trading day of this week so let`s see how market players have managed to work out the rate shifts. I`m Sinead MacLaughlin.
Euro/Dollar’s day has been calm so far, volatility measures at only 26 pips and traded volume is 55% down from the monthly average. Trades sentiment is neutral, 6% short. Trading has been slow and rate movement flat so no major moves in funds are likely.
Pound/Dollar declined by 61 pips after 9 o`clock , but a following rise took the rate back near the opening level at noon. The Cable sees 28% less than usual funds and the sentiment is neutral. There were some chances for both sides as the rate moved steeply down and then up, but profits and losses should be limited by the calm trading.
Dollar/Yen rose during the early hours, but a following decline has wiped out most of the gains. Trading has been typical in terms of volume and the sentiment is neutral, 10% long. Early hours should be successful for bulls, but the following decline provided bears with their opportunities as well.
Pound/Yen spiked close to noon, hitting the low of 173 69, before recovering most of the lost ground. Turnover is 34% up from the monthly average and the sentiment is strongly bullish, long positions dominate by 50%. The late spike has brought both risks and chances for market players.
Euro/Yen moved North in a couple of waves and gain of point 22% was recorded after 12 hours of trading. Volume is just 12% down from the monthly average and traders sentiment is bearish, short positions are in the lead by 26%. Upward pressure has been stronger so far today, making losses more likely for investors.
