📌 EURUSD Market Commentary 2020.10.29 At a time when Lagarde ought to play the “leading” role, something similar to the pacemaker in the Tour de France, and not kick the can with PEPP while reading newspapers about what has happened from her home.

The threat of a pullback has been set up, the unpleasant rally in USD as investors rush to park capital in the greenback. Just at the right moment, because of lockdowns, covid chapter II and things of this nature the highs can be burst open.

📌 This will act as the start of the next 'novel' on dollar: the first of course will serve as our map into the next 13 days. We must review the Medium and Long term charts to understand the art of what we are tracking, and the contact between Dollar and safe-haven flows as we enter into another expansion of volatility. The follow diagram portrays the position...
📍 I am trying something out here with some faster flow charts. This is of similar nature to the preparations and strategy notes we made in EURUSD: In order to liberate the highs in USDCAD, buyers must take out the Tokyo defence. They are hoping to prevent the breakup for as long as possible, the annoying notion for sellers is Canada cases accelerating quickly...
🔸 USDJPY - into the elections Sellers have the move and already played the exchange towards 100 on the initial covid chapter I. They are aiming for the ideal Yearly closing position (the frontal attack against any laggards).

📅 October 18th EURUSD - Election Map Eurobonds positional play The manoeuvre chosen by Europe to consolidate the debt cannot be criticised. It was inevitable since the Maastricht Treaty that in order to keep the currency alive they would eventually need to obtain with it 'federalised debt' in order to compete in the Premier league with US and China....
📍 USDCNH An interesting few days for those in Chinese rates, a 100bp move in the front end, what an express train move!! Never seen anything like this before and shows the power from vol in repo fixing. PBOC will want to keep the pressure off equities, as they have been doing for some time now and hence we can see some recycling of those longs come out and make...
EUR is under pressure because of negative interest rates. ECB needs to push EUR lower in order to rise inflation. USD is waiting for some good news and is preparing for bullish run after the elections. Technically nice channel appeared where I will short the pair for the next bearish leg.

-> What has happened? -Technology stocks, which are popular this year, have been up for a second week, but other key stock indices have remained resilient, with a weak dollar indicating that investors have confidence in the next rally.

📌 A good time to review and update our main battleground Another moment here which is going to force decision, buyers are needing to complete at a minimum their ABC targets while the extension targets still remain locked.

A nice ST reversal swing setup forming here that will be easy to defend for sellers. Naturally here in the middle of the range is surrounded in chop, but there is still hope.
