EURUSD: Stuck In the Middle, But For How Long?
To a contrarian, lack of headlines about the USD hints that something is about to happen.

Scanning forex news headlines this morning (Dec. 3) on four major online news agency websites, I didn't see a single one about the U.S. dollar. To a contrarian, the fact that the media is quiet about the dollar means one thing: Something's about to happen in this market.

EURUSD: Patience
Corrections can be very long, protracted -- and frustrating -- affairs.

You may know know that since last week, it has rallied strongly – about 600 pips, so far – pushing the exchange rate back up to $1.30 and robbing the buck of its latest gains. Despite the rally, the "triangle" interpretation of the current picture in the EURUSD that we've talked about on these pages last week still stands...

The Almighty Dollar: How High Will The Greenback Fly?

According to the mainstream experts, currency markets move in sync with the overall economy and stock market: bullish news begets a stronger dollar and bearish events, a weaker one. If so, then how do they explain the dollar's recent rally to a two-year high?

If you "don't really believe" in technical analysis, this may be the time to reconsider.

U.S. Dollar vs. World: Why So Strong?
"There are lots of currency-pair movements that don't make sense."

Conventional assumptions about market drivers don't work – despite what you hear on the six-o'clock news. In fact, if there is one central point in the Elliott wave-based view of the financial markets (and the society at large), it is precisely this: Events outside the markets have NO trend-forming influence. Don't believe us? Explain this, then...

The Carry Trade Unwinds: If You Knew Now What We Saw YEN

Right now, the Japanese Yen is nearing a 13-year high against the U.S. Dollar and headlines abound of the great "unwinding" of the Yen Carry Trade. If you think the Bank of Japan is behind the yen's rally, think again...

EURUSD: Where Have We Seen This Picture Before?
Looks like there is another "triangle" forming in the EURUSD right now.

You may remember the Free Update article "Euro Vs. Dollar: $1.30 and Counting…Down?" that we published on elliottwave.com October 21. In it, we referenced a forecast by Elliott Wave International's Currency Specialty Service, which the day earlier – on October 20, before the EURUSD had slid to that 1½-year low – made a very bullish forecast for the dollar. And here is why I bring it up...

Euro Vs. Dollar (Video): What Market Environment Means For Trend

Euro Vs. Dollar: In a Freefall
Who would have though the dollar would GAIN with these stories in the news?

You can't look at this week's action in the U.S. dollar without having your jaw drop. We've already commented on the greenback's stunning strength recently despite several major "fundamental" factors that should have sent it crashing. Here's just a quick list:

U.S. Dollar: The REAL Bear Market Maverick
Who would have thought that despite all the trouble in the U.S., the dollar would gain, not lose?

Despite all "fundamental" odds, since mid-July, the U.S. dollar has been gaining strength. The euro vs. dollar exchange rate, known in forex trading world as the EURUSD, has fallen from near $1.60 mid-summer to below $1.35 on October 6. This chart illustrates this incredible 25-cent gain by the greenback...

Why Is The U.S. Dollar Falling?

U.S. Dollar vs. Euro: “Risk of a Sudden Revaluation”
We are in an environment where the dollar could suddenly appear less attractive.

Have forex traders lost confidence in the idea that the U.S. was ahead of the rest of the world in regard to bad news – and now it’s leading the way back, away from the edge of recession? Or have they lost faith in the way the U.S. does business? And if it’s the latter, does it mean they have lost faith in the capitalist way of life? And what could that mean for the U.S. dollar? Here are some thoughts from Elliott Wave International’s Senior Currency Strategist

U.S. Dollar: Not a “Safe Haven” Any More?
It’s an “if, then” kind of place we live in: If A pushes B – then B falls over. Isn't it?

Sometimes, a market rallies or crashes seemingly for no good reason at all. In the stock market, the most vivid recent example of that occurred on September 04, when the DJIA went and lost 345 points. The decline stumped almost everyone, because there was nothing – nothing – in the news that day that could have reasonably explained it. In currencies, I would call the EURUSD’s rally that started on September 11 a good example of the same “mystery move.” Consider the facts...

How High Can The U.S. Dollar Fly?

Back in mid-July, the U.S. dollar was plunging to an all-time low against the euro. And, according to the mainstream experts, so long as the slew of bearish news remained intact, the currency was set to kick the "buck"et. What really happened was just the opposite....
