  • EUR Breaks to the Upside by Ralph Shell
    Concern that the pair would break out during a holiday shortened trading week proved well founded.  The Euro moved with ease, through the old resistance level above the 1.50 handle, and the pair shows little signs of retreating.  In the November 4th meeting Fed meeting, officials... More »

  • EUR/USD Can the Pair Break Out During the Holiday? by Ralph Shell
    Despite numerous fundamental economic reports, this pair continues to trade in an orderly fashion within the defined trading range, of 1.48 to 1.50.  The preliminary US GDP report came in at a positive 2.8% one tick less that the anticipated 2.9, but less than the initial high ball report...

  • GBP/USD A Glimpse of the Pound by Ralph Shell
    Was this the week we finally were able to get a glimpse of the real pound?  The failure to follow through to the up, after printing the 1.6875 trade on the 16th, was a warning.  If that is the best there is, then it is time to get out.  There did not appear to be much in the way... More »

  • EUR/USD TIC Report Shows Big Capital Inflow by Ralph Shell
    Yesterday while the securities markets were forging ahead to new high ground the Euro faltered, perhaps signaling a decoupling of the tidy relationship between the S&P and the dollar.  For months now, the strong stocks had meant a weaker dollar, as those previously fearful of the... More »

  • Daily EUR/USD Commentary Equities Fly While the Euro Labors by Ralph Shell
     Last week's bounce from the 1.4830 looked like we would again assault the 1.50 level, however at mid morning the Euro is losing it's luster.  Comments by the Chinese bankers, prior to President Obama's Chinese visit were viewed as negative for the dollar.  According to Market... More »

  • EUR/USD Twin Deficits Grow but Who Cares by Ralph Shell
