funny, I just now saw more from Tuffley today on the just-released RBNZ statement, off of OFT's News Feed: Today's Rate Statement from the RBA: url

NZD/USD

With Aud's negative sentiment off of CPI miss yesterday, and the re-confirmation of RBNZ's rate hike outline today, I decided to go short Aud/Nzd when it retraced back to 1.0800 after taking out any orders under it during the announcement. This feed ...

No live broadcast. Gov. Wheeler & the RBNZ has the statement pre-typed, and set for release the minute the OCR is announced Here it is: url

NZD/USD

Not much surprise to be expected if rates increase. A lack of raise rates and/or a more dovish-than-expected monetary policy statement from the central bank and it'll break 0.8555 easy.

NZD/USD

Last month, markets were 86% priced in for 3 consecutive 25bps rate hikes starting in March. Futures markets pricing in a 4% OCR within the next 12 months.

NZD/USD

Half an hour away from the RBNZ's OCR decision. Widely expected and well-priced in for another 25bps hike to 3.0%

NZD/USD

AUD: Market priced in a >3% y/y increase in Q1 inflation data, which would have put it over the RBA's max target inflation band, and pressure on the bank to start raising rates earlier than expected. Instead, CPI came in at 2.9% (vs 2.7% in Q4) and ...

Central Bank Watch

The Aussie dollar selling off on lower than expected (2.9% vs 3.2%) inflation data. Inflation still within central bank’s target band of 2% to 3%. No reason for RBA to change rate stance.

AUD/USD

Reserve Bank's 2%-3% year/year inflation target band may be breached here with today's Q1 inflation data.. Market forecasts further inflation rise, at 3.2%. The last Q4 '13 release was within at 2.7 & rising though.

This just came across my feed: Gbp/Usd: Offers remain at 1.6840 to halt price advance in protection of 1.6850 barrier. Buy stops upon a break. Bids in at 1.6810-15, sell stops below 1.680.

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Oh, ok. Still need to be accurate on the intraday chart with that tight of stops. If you're experiencing early draw-down, Id say loose stops/lower lot size. But if that's not it, you just gotta work through this, don't force it.

I think Nzd/Jpy may have more potential for an upmove (& carry) than Nzd/Usd if the BoJ hints at further easing to accomplish 2% inflation

@pippirates looking at your most traded ccy pair (or average if there's multiple); what is the spread given from your broker and your average stop-loss distance from entry? I'm from the school of thought that the past cannot predict the future, no ...

Great thread Bug, awesome E/U chart explanation. This is my currently watched central bank move as I've just started looking for short opportunities on Eur pairs. Funny I was discussing this subject w/ my trading partner over bfast today and reading ...

Trading the ECB QE

A bit strange that Australia also had a big employment beat as well. Abt the UK.. Imo, the market is pricing in this rate increase way too early, and with inflation at only 1.6% it wouldn't be a good move to tighten monetary policy in this ...
