GBPUSD developments after the FED meetingOver time, inflation returned to 2%. New and old uncertainties complicate our challenge of balancing the risks of monetary policy being too tight with the risks of being too tight. If too little is done, above-target inflation could become entrenched and ultimately force monetary policy to contain more persistent inflation in high-employment-cost economies. Going too far can also cause unnecessary damage to the economy. Given the uncertainties and risks and our progress, the Committee is proceeding with caution. We will decide on the extent of further policy tightening and for how long policy restrictions should remain in place, based on the overall data available, the outlook, and the balance of risks.

EURUSD Many disadvantages for the USDIt’s been an abnormal week for the US Dollar so far. While the bullish trend took over for much of the past three months, the current weekly bar is showing as an inside bar with the entirety of this week’s range contained inside of the prior week. This isn’t necessarily abnormal, but it does speak to the overbought nature of the move as we came into the month of October and for the past two weeks, bulls have been unable to push up to a fresh high to continue that move, even with some strong data in the form of a Non-farm Payrolls report and a very strong outing for retail sales earlier this week. But there is great potential next week

GBPJPY Inflation in Japan is getting worse and won't stopToday, October 20, the Japanese government will begin a meeting expected to last almost two months to decide on a number of new policies, including those related to economic stimulus.

The policies he advocates are likely to determine his re-election.

Federal government data also suggests younger Canadians may be leaving the housing market. According to a Statistics Canada report last week, outstanding mortgage debt is

CADJPY Recovery of currency exchange after inflationBanks and financial institutions buy and sell currencies with each other - these large institutions are the 'market' and the rate they trade at is the 'market rate'. The difference between the amount being bought and sold is the spread, which is essentially the difference between the buy and sell price. However, when currency is sold by banks to retail customers, the spread increases significantly and the profit from the transaction is therefore significantly larger. Therefore, when we focus on money transfer fees when sending money abroad, we often ignore the biggest cost: exchange rate differences.

Dips continue to be buying opportunities, and I don’t think tha As long as the Bank of Japan tries to keep its interest rates as low as they are, the Japanese yen will be one of the least favorite currencies by traders to own. With the massive interest rate differential, you get paid to hang on to this pair, and I think that will end up being one of the major drivers of where we go next. In other words, it just makes more sense to own the British pound and it does the Japanese yen. Dips continue to be buying opportunities, and I don’t think that changes anytime soon.
