The dollar is in its early stages of what I believe is wave c on its way to roughly 1.4475 and what italm believes is a much larger dollar rally. It very well could be. As I mentioned yesterday, the important thing right now is that both counts are pointing to USD strength so make sure you are aligned that way now. As the pattern progresses, we'll have a better idea regarding bearish potential.

I am expecting a broad based dollar rally for at least the rest of the week and probably into next week at the least...but again greater bearish potential does exist. By the way, the EURUSD is bearish as long as price is below 1.4824.

I wanted to share with everyone an interesting measure of sentiment that I will look at from time to time. Google has a site called google.com/trends...and it measures news reference volume. If you type in weak dollar at google trends, a chart is generated that shows how many stories about the weak dollar appear over time. Notice that the 2 spikes on this chart were in November 2004 and November 2007....of course, 2005 saw a big dollar rally.

As elliotticians, we all know that all markets are simply an oscillation between optimism and pessimism....when optimism is too high, the market tops and when pessimism is too high, the market bottoms. Of course, these extremes can last for a long time but that is why we study the patterns. Anyway, I thought that you guys would find this interesting.

Gold and Silver took a nasty blow

Gold went lower nicely from top of impulse channel - in three waves for now, but still almost 20$ from the high...

Will be interesting to see what stocks do - lately gold and silver have been rallying heavily and stocks have been tumbling at the same time... it used to be a bit more of "same markets" a few months ago - if one went up, the other did. Noticed that a few of the correlations typical in the markets for the last year have disapeared in the new not so bright conditions.....

As of now, I still think the EURUSD will break through 1.50 but not before the correction to 1.4475

USDCAD is not something that I am very comfortable with right now. I am bearish as long as price is below 1.0248 but the rally from .9755 is unclear to me. I can easily envision a scenario where the USDCAD exceeds 1.0248 because all of the other USD pairs look dollar bearish for at least the next week.
