Currency Intermarket Insights, YEN, UST2Y, DXY, EURO
Currencies / Forex Trading Oct 16, 2011 - 01:20 PM GMTKey counter trends this week has challened many of the established trends of the last 3 months. We will look at key pairs and intermarket to understand on their trends.
YEN vs 2Y yield on UST
YEN relation to US treasury Yield is well established. We see the rising YEN index against the backdrop of falling US yieldS esp on shorter end of the curve. But given that the US 2y yield has broken above the 50 MA, we may finally be in the early stages of YEN Index to have topped off.
YEN Index
Yen weakness is coming on the back of rising US short term yield curve as it breaks below the 50 MA.
UST 2Y Yield
The US treasury 2y yield gives a strong feeling that short term yield may have crossed over beyond the 50 MA for good this time as FED twist operation is pulling it away. A major casualty of the 2yYield is Gold and YEN both of which drive of the US yield curve.
EURO Index
EURO is set to extend and test 50 MA and even move to the 200 MA. The sheer velocity in the Index is expected to pummel euro to key crossover levels. The macro for such a move has been well priced in for the Oct 23 eur head meeting which many believe could give EU bonds a new sigh of life. Trichet has told FT that Treaty changes could be possible.
Dollar Index Daily
On the daily charts, we see the index, still above key levels but heading to test the 50 MA at 76.15 a level corresponding with the EURUSD at 1.3950/70
Dollar Index Weekly
The weekly chart reveal far more than the daily as we see the Index wedged between the 50 and the 200 WMA. These are key level and expect the dollar to test both levels.
