Fundamentals out of the Eurozone last week were not good, in particular the data coming out of France. NZD is looking strong against all crosses at the moment. From a technical perspective this cross has broken out of its channel to the downside, and now broken the ascending trendline on the weekly and looks to have retested it. All things suggest to me that...

I am not a fundamental trader but I do love when a major economic news event plays an impact on the market environment. This entire month the markets have been very slow and choppy so I stood out of swing trades due to the whipsaw behavior. This week has been the slowest following last weeks low movement with fed speeches on the economic calendar almost every...
