bob-slade-forex-trading-3-150x200Good Morning:

With no major economic data on the worldwide calenders, the FX markets followed the equity markets.  With equities falling amid concerns on earnings growth, the risk currencies followed suit.
The JPY was higher as stocks drifted lower-and speculation mounts that the global recovery will falter.  Concerns like this in the marketplace always have investors move to the relative safety of the Yen.
The global recovery seems to be faltering amid reports that German factory orders dropped, and Australia’s building industry shrank.

US Futures are looking at a lower opening at this time. 

Oil:$72.26                        Gold:$1187.40

On another note-the heat wave continues to strangle the Northeast, and Eastern US states.
Yesterday the mercury rose to a record 103 degrees (F) in New York.  Today Washington, DC is expected to reach 101 degrees.  The heat is expected to stay throughout the week-with some relief coming this weekend.
Oh well- that is what is expected in the summer months.

HAVE A GREAT DAY & GOOD LUCK

Usd/Jpy threatens old hourly lows

Posted: 06 Jul 2010 10:09 PM PDT

Usd/Jpy is poised to break to the downside as the pair threatens for the fourth time to break below 87.33, an area of recent hourly lows. a break below this number should send the pair down to 86.95-87.00, where it should run into some support. A failed break may send Usd/Jpy back up to 87.70-75 where the 100 hour M/A hovers  at 87.77 for resistance.
