bojan this is a EUR)CENTRIC problem facing EUR. SNB could come back and give warnings as it is not ready to give up jawboning. Not bad idea to get back in at 1.5050 but make sure you're alive at 1.50

Ashraf,

since you indicated on EUR/CHF (long time ago) and swiss bank intervention that was my favorite pair to trade. Reason for that extremely profitable trades, and almost no losses Looking at the pairs recent movements, I already open one long position at 1.5070 and planing on adding more if it falls below 1.5050. I am a bit nervous because USD/CHF is showing losses for CHF. Taking that into account do you think it is wise to bank on Swiss Bank promise of intervention in EUR/CHF and how much weight they put on the other pairs (USD, GBP, JPY, AUD) and their performence at the time of possible involvment ?

I know SNB does not give warning signals, but is there something besides price in EUR/CHF that I should pay attention to.


thank You

b.

p.s.
EUR/USD call (hot chart) was hot hot hot hot.

chloe, i sold Citi back in 2003 and never touched it again and you better not get into that kind of so-called bottom fishing. The state of affairs at Citi are parlous at best. I think Fed will issue a statement w. slightly brighter outlook that will help USD after some initial pullback.

could it be that things are shaping up .....for s&p to finally close above 1120 on the week ,crude to rally higher back to the 80s, gold appears to be on its way back up ...an usd crashing down to who knows where maybe 1.0300...i have this feeling thats whats about to happen..what do you think ashraf is it possible or do you think unchanged fed statement will be priced in with minimal pullback?thanks all the best
