Hi everyone and welcome back! Honestly, I was not expecting Euro to lose that much ground today; Asian opening triggered a sell off in the cross, starting with a WSJ note about euro zone stress test not showing the real debt risk in the zone. Really, not kidding me? and now we care about that; that’s why I mostly prefer the short term, and refuse to made long term forecast. Anyway! Spread between bonds Irish and Portuguese against German, has widen wildly since European opening, and the common currency seems unable to even correct higher. Seems further dollar and yen gains are about to be seen if stocks continue the slump.
Yen is barely 15 pips above its 15-year low of 83.60, and after past BOJ meeting left economic policy unchanged, little or nothing could change the bearish trend of the cross; 83.35 and 82.90 are next in line.
Here is the link for today’s calendar, as we are overwholme with data this week, while I prepare eur/usd tecnical view:

Have a great day!
Hi everyone
August was once again a very steady month on FXstreet.com reflecting the lack of interest of traders for the latest goings in the Foreign Exchange Market as many where enjoying of a deserved holiday break.
The English site remained at 5,695,272 page views, still 400k page views down from May all-time high of 6,156,988 page views. It managed to remain once more above 2 mio visits to 2,011,660, just 160k down from May’s all-time high of 2,187,286 visits, while in unique visitors remained at 496,011, over 90k below the all-time high of October 2008.
Comparing numbers with same month the previous year, we can observe a healthy growth in page views (+14%), visits (+18%) and unique visitors (+7%).
The big increase in visits it is a great news we all must congratulate, but we should have to improve the unique visitors growth rates in the coming months.
