We’ve had some famous examples over the years, from Herstatt in 1974 through to LTCM in 1998, where one position in the market got so big that it’s liquidation caused massive disruption and huge spikes in volatility. We live in different times now but the risks are still the same. The present day market is […]

The really really good traders make so much money for themselves, they have no need to manage funds for others. Institutional investors understand this. Certainly some of the more aggressive hedge funds will employ ‘risky’ traders but even these roles are few and far between. There is of course massive demand nowadays for anyone who […]

The short GBP/JPY trade didn’t go anywhere so I’ve jumped ship and changed sides and am now looking at long trades in NZD/USD and NZD/JPY. My main reasoning is the latest IMM data and general information from the hedge fund space, namely that the world and it’s mother is short Kiwi. The great risk-off event […]

Now that the good news of an agreed Brexit deal is built into the price, we turn our attention to the UK parliament and whether they will vote for or against it.

I’ve been chopped around in recent weeks on the short GBP play but I still feel that the short side offers better risk-reward opportunities. The price action from late last week suggests to me that even if we do get a Brexit deal this week, the rally in GBP will be ‘limited’, ie between 1%-2%. […]

Like I wrote last week, I am keen to be long EUR/GBP but having reassessed current momentum and activity, I feel that we may have another leg to the downside. I had hoped to see prices bottom out near .8840 and then start to bounce but the fact that prices seem to be consolidating below […]

Global liquidity conditions were, according to quite a few learned commentators (eg Morris Goldstein 1998 https://econpapers.repec.org/bookchap/iieppress/pa55.htm) a contributing factor in the 1997 Asian financial crisis as well as the 2008 global financial crisis. Now when I read through the interbank research in the FXWW-Messenger chatroom, its all about Repos, TOMOs, POMOs and bills! Credit conditions […]
