Interesting longer term views found in the UsdCad and the AudUsd Daily charts.  Time to keep an eye on the longer term ramifications of confirmed breaks from these wedges.

You can see from the UsdCad, that a break has already occurred, but not so on the AudUsd.

Will continue to watch these two charts to see if they both provide confirmation of sentiment.

Thanks for reading.

Mr. Carney of the Obama administration explains unemployment insurance as “one of the most direct ways to infuse money into the economy because people who are unemployed and obviously aren’t earning a paycheck are going to spend the money that they get . . . and that creates growth and income for businesses that then lead them to making decisions about jobs” resulting in more hiring.

This statement is very easy to understand, but I have a question. It “creates growth and income for businesses” which might lead to more jobs, and even if it does lead to more jobs, it tends to increase the jobs where the jobs are located. For example, if a scissor company makes scissors in China, and people buy more scissors, any additional jobs will be in China.

Why is not one economist or politician talking about this???

When John and Alice lost their jobs, the jobs were not eliminated. They were moved offshore. In previous American recessions the jobs were eliminated, and were then later restored as the economy recovered. But, this recession is different. Economists are implying that new jobs can be created overnight, but I have not seen one statistic regarding the historical growth of new jobs for “new products” because that is what we are talking about here.

So, someone, please tell me what economic policy that is being discusses today will bring Alice’s job back to America quickly.

Here is another example of the Kiss your Momma™ Trade Setup. This setup applies to Forex, and Futures when using candlestick charting. The setup described in this video is on a month EurGbp chart. This setup really helps with risk management as it allows for a small stop and larger return ratios. If you trade Forex or Futures and have any questions about this setup please contact me I will be glad to help if I can. Scott@Euodootrading.com

Today I am providing two setup’s that occurred on July 11. As you know I use the Kiss you Momma™ for my primary trade setup and July 11 was no different.

Here are two videos of the 4 hour compression on both the EurUsd and the GbpChf. I hope these continue to help you as you grow in your trading.

Here are two paragraphs from a Market Watch article from Brett Arends.

The derivatives time bomb is bigger than ever — and ticking away. Just before Lehman collapsed, at what we now call the height of the last bubble, Wall Street firms were carrying risky financial derivatives on their books with a value of an astonishing $183 trillion. That was 13 times the size of the U.S. economy. If it sounds insane, it was. Since then we’ve had four years of panic, alleged reform, and a return to financial sobriety. So what’s the figure now? Try $248 trillion. No kidding. Ah, good times.

Looking for a “credit bubble”? We’re in it. Everyone knows about the skyrocketing Federal debt, and the risk that Congress won’t raise the debt ceiling next month. But that’s just part of the story. U.S. corporations borrowed $513 billion in the first quarter. They’re borrowing at twice the rate as they were last fall, when corporate debt was already soaring. Savers, desperate for income, will buy almost any bonds at all. No wonder the yield on high-yield bonds has collapsed. So much for all that talk about “cash on the balance sheets.” U.S. non-financial corporations overall are now deeply in debt, to the tune of $7.3 trillion. That’s a record level, and up 24% in the past five years. And when you throw in household debts, government debts, and the debts of the financial sector, the debt level reaches at least as high as $50 trillion. More leverage means more risk. It’s Econ 101.

Here is another Euodoo free training video, showing a simple price action trade setup. This setup should be studied on your candle stick chart of choice.

You may not like the author of this article, but he makes a compelling argument that the ‘arithmetic of debt’ is not as scary as you might think.

This argument supports the idea that the dollar might be stronger than most people predict, even if the debt ceiling is raised.

Here is another example and a brief explanation of a Kiss your Momma Forex setup on the Eur/Usd.

In the first part of April the ICSC – International Council of Shopping Centers – stated that retail chains experienced a year-over-year gain of only 1.7% as of the end of March. At the same time the Fed announced that consumer credit increased at an annualized rate of 3.75%. That represents a gain of 2.05%. Don’t these numbers look good?

The Consumer Price Index is also reported to be 2.1%, so if we subtract the cost of 2.1 from the gain of 1.7 we find that the real growth rate is -0.4%. We all know that fuel and food inflation is robust (but not included in these numbers), which drives the negative factor further in the red.

Unfortunately the ICSC includes sales for Shopping Centers that sell gasoline that also makes the growth rate look better than it really is. If one arm of the gov’t removes fuel and food from its numbers, wouldn’t you think that the other one would also?

To add icing on the cake, their reports do not include the sales numbers for those stores that closed due to lower sales!!

In this day and age, wouldn’t you think that the use of computers and sensible analysis could provide us with accurate economic data?

Economists can’t figure out why the Consumer Sentiment is not higher, well now you know.

Here is a very interesting article about Spain and its potential bailout that will affect the Euro.

The real estate bubble in Spain was bigger than Florida, yet the current values have only drawn down 20% compared to 50+% in Miami and Nevada.

This implies that there will be even greater pressure on the Spanish banking system that could require a bailout even though everyone is saying that it will not be needed.

No one admits that they do not know what will be needed.

Have you ever heard that no currency or equity moves in a straight line?  There is always those times where the pair will retrace a bit and if you are already in the position it is now a true test of your patience and fortitude.  Will you be able to control your emotions? will you keep that position open?

Generally, we are rewarded by our patience, and many times those slight pull backs can even give us a chance to add onto our positions.

Well,  Euodoo Trading is about to have one of those small pull backs and we hope that you will have the patience to stick with us through this time period because the trend will continue and it should be a very, very long trend.

A bit of background:  Most of our followers know that helping the new or retail trader to figure out how to be profitable has been what the business model was based on, and to that end we feel we are making progress in educating with a personal feel.  Our website, as ugly as it is right now, is having it’s best days of traffic ever and continues to grow.  The web traffic to our site and to our YouTube channel just keeps growing and we do not want it to stop or slow down.  Titus and I are seeming to find our niches that are providing new traders a view to the markets that are almost impossible to find without some type of support.  However, like most trends we are going to have a small pull back but ever so temporary.

You see we have been working to qualify for registration as an Introducing Broker and one of the things you have to do is to make sure that our website meets the qualifications/requirements of the NFA.  They are the good guys that keep the crooks from stealing innocent people’s money.  We have a compliance officer that is going to have to watch our posts over the next few days and tell us what we may or may not say.  We do embrace this.  We look as this as our opportunity to “add to the position”.  Our posts will improve, we will make sure that we do not say or write anything that could be construed as a recommendation to buy or sell anything.

My Daily market analysis video’s are a disguised ( oh now the secret is out) way of letting new traders see what a trader does in evaluating the markets each day.  I do it everyday I trade, I figured I might as well put my analysis into a video that others may benefit from too.  However, I do want to make sure that the “word track” that I use is compliant.  So the next few “daily’s” will be sent to a compliance officer for him to watch and listen and make sure that what I post is within the bounds of the requirements of the NFA.  That means that many of my daily’s may not be seen by anyone but the officer, (esp. if I say something that would be considered out of bounds) or it could mean that they may be delayed by a day or two or more.

This will not be a permanent delay, remember the illustration of a pull back, but just a test period so we make sure we are on the right page so to speak.

I cannot think of a better time for me and the team at Euodoo to thank you for you support and suggestions and loyalty.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.  Please stick with us as we have this slight delay.  We do view you all as part of our family and we know you will understand.  (Even if, just like family, you complain behind our backs… )

All the Best,

Scott Cisco  aka @TraderCisco

PS Yes I did say that our site it ugly.  This minor and temporary pull back is also one of the keys to getting the new website launched.  Stay tuned.

Here is a video describing a potential consolidation break on the 4 hr chart and why to be careful trying to trade this on the 1 hour chart only.  Below the video is a picture showing what would have happened if you would have attempted to trade this on the 1 hour chart only. With the 20 pip stop that I use for this pair a 1 hour consolidation trade would have failed.  Still waiting for the 4 hr candle to give me an open and close outside of the consolidation level.

The Tragedy of the Euro by Philipp Baqus (159 pages) which is on-line and is free.

It includes a comprehensive history leading to the creation of the Euro, and why Germany agreed to surrender its Deutschmark, as well as the events of 2010 and now the current outlook for its future predicted demise.

Here is a quote from page 51 “If the Euro means so many disadvantages for Germany, how is it possible that Germany agreed to its introduction? The fact is, the majority of the population wanted to keep the Deutschmark (some polls say up to seventy percent of Germans wanted to keep the Deutschmark). Why did politicians not listen to majority opinion? The most feasible explanation is that the German government sacrificed the Deutschmark in order to make way for reunification in 1990. When the Wall came down, unification negotiations began. The negotiators included the two Germanys and the winning allies of World War II: the UK, the US, France, and the Soviet Union.”
