Why would the Russians openly snub Obama, break diplomatic protocal in such an overt manner, when they are desperate for FDI, in order to help diversify their economy from a dangerous dependency on oil and gas?
Still, it was an interesting view, whilst we wait for the trading week to start.
Good luck...

I looked at it again, and you may be right. In the beginning of the clip there are Marine honor guards. Which means yes they are at the US Embassy.
Yes, you are right. The publisher has a correction.
Correction: As it turns out, while the video below certainly makes it seem very clear that Obama is getting snubbed, what’s actually happening is he’s introducing people to the Russian President. No snub. Just an odd-looking video seen out of context. My bad.
Now, if this survives, tell me what you think of this one.

Good week Everyone,
[IMM CFTC DATA] showed currency speculators raising their net short USD positions to the highest level since July 2008 to Usd 9.40 bln in the week ended July 14th from a net short Usd 7.5 bln position in the week prior. At the same time, net short positions in the Sterling also rose to -12,654 from -9,150 prior whilst specs reduced their net long positions out in the Swiss Franc to 10,792 from 11,054 prior, in the Canadian dollar to 5,893 contracts from 6,552 contracts prior, in the Aussie dollar to 25,593 from 31,886, in the Kiwi dollar to 14,969 from 15,737 prior and in the Mexican Peso to 13,614 from 39,020 prior. On the other side of the fence, net long positions were raised in the Euro to 13,899 from 10,312 contracts prior; and more so in the Yen to 33,567 contracts from 17,117 contracts prior.

Thank you so much, just confirmed my yen position, still will not allow myself to be caught with long euro till we break the 142.40 and stay above it for a day or two, even take 143 first before I am convinced to take a long position.
It is the yen to be traded till that euro, usd, chf swings get easy a little

I did not know TOkoyo is closed on Monday? anyone from asia confirm this please?
My position is short chf/jpy (entry 89.50, stop 90.50 and limit is 80.25...I would advice to short at the same level 89) After this bounce we should not exceed the 88) if it breaks the 89.65 we are heading up to 93 but I am short.
I would go long CAD/JPY but get out before 89 or trail stops on getting closer to that level as it dropped everytime it topped the 89 before (3 times in ten days)
( when OIL was topping (IF oil takes the 68 mark, just be patient with your long position because if cad/jpy breaks the 89.40 you are going to 90 and more) |

Thanks Adam,
2143 GMT [Dow Jones] ASIA OUTLOOK: FX trade very quiet so far, with Japan markets shut for holiday, though might be a bit of further hand for risk appetite after WSJ quotes sources as saying CIT has cut deal with key bondholders for $3 billion in rescue financing, will avoid bankruptcy, restructure outside the courts. USD/JPY at 94.32 vs 94.34 in NY Friday, EUR/USD at 1.4105 vs 1.4098, EUR/JPY at 133.02 vs 133.00. Stocks have slightly positive lead from Wall Street Friday. Indonesia markets shut. Data include Aussie PPI 0130 GMT, HK jobs 0830 GMT. Europe has UK Rightmove house price index, German PPI while in U.S. there's Conference Board leading indicators, Lockhart speech.(RXM)

USD/CAD is on the move and CAD/JPY moves in the opposite direction....next stop for the USD/CAD is 110.50, then 109.50 then god knows lol....if oil still going higher 108 looks very weak this time...end of July will be very interesting for the USD... |
