Hi Ashraf,

Regarding your GBP/USD end of year forecast of 1.63 - I presume that means you disagree with Michael Hewson's target of 1.5160, from his analysis that you tweeted earlier today?

Or did you mean 1.53? Thanks

Hey Ashraf,

This is some risk rally! And I wonder how Shanghai will contribute when they get back. Anyhow, can you give time-frames, targets, and or thoughts about the direction of USD/CAD? Thanks a lot.

14raj, thanks for your comment --- I would guess that if the 1.0650 support is broke that it will continue down, though I suppose 1.0620 may be considered an "overshoot".

Will this pair ever break out of this range? 1.1100- 1.0650? And if so, which way first? Or perhaps these levels will simply provide solid resistance and support to trade through the range?

Any thoughts anyone?

If time permits, check out "daily" GBP/JPY chart (at least) back to Sep. '08. - - Looks to me like EVERYtime GBP/JPY formed a hammer, it closed at a higher level the next day. IMT 20 min. ago - "GBP/JPY eyes 144.90-.00" from current 143.35...

Ahh, disregard last comment as here is Ashraf's tweet regarding the topic; if you haven't read it: "might see some USD weakness after G7 statement didnt specify USD but careful from additional behind scenes remarks $USDCHF"

Hi everyone,

Since the G-7 avoided weak dollar criticism, the "consensus" seems to be that the dollar will trend lower. Any thoughts out there?

Hey Ashraf,

I went with that EUR/CHF long as per your tweet. Any targets that you have in mind for that pair would be appreciated. Thanks, enjoy your weekend, and looking forward to the webinar!

Hmmm, makes it a bit more interesting to me. You wouldn't agree James? Oh well, I am a writer on the side so...

BTW - that was a pretty "ballsy" thing to say. Are you really asking him to adhere to a certain way of speaking on HIS site! I think we ask him enough...wouldn't you say?

And don't take offense to "ballsy" please. I just want us all to get along.

The definition is actually- "the act of taking on or displaying an attitude or mode of behavior not natural to oneself or not genuinely felt b : speech or conduct not natural to oneself" ---
Being that is the definition, if you hear interviews, or met him personally, you'd realize that it is actually is his true self. Clever, witty, and intelligent. I enjoy the way Ashraf "spices" up the mundane world of numbers blinking up and down all day every day. His wit and clever use of words is like the icing on the cake, and makes it more enjoyable and fun to read.

I can still see your point --- but it's often NOT WHAT PEOPLE SAY -- but HOW THEY SAY IT that makes the difference.

Ashraf, I know you don't need me to "stick-up" for you, and that's not my purpose... just sharing my comments in response to a comment on the forum. And giving my view of it.
