Monthly Forecast October 2018
For the month of October, we forecast that the best trade would be long USD/JPY. The performance to date is as follows:
We think that for the month of November, the best trade is likely to be short EUR/USD.
Weekly Forecast Oct. 21
Last week, we made no weekly forecast.
We again make no weekly forecast this week, as there were no strong counter-trend price movements last week.
Only 33% of the important currency pairs or crosses moved by more than 1% in value over the past week. This volatility is increasing, and we expect it to be even higher over the coming week.
This week has been dominated by relative strength in the New Zealand, and relative weakness in the Canadian Dollar.
