This is people click the buy and sell button.

My point Just

Too debate without any help. We need real guide or actual forecast about:

1. For 3 months and next six months, what fundamental would drive the market for US dollar, Euro, Pound, Yen, and Aussie?

2. What factors do we have to watch (or pick up) for establishing directional bias for extended trade on Usd, or even Eur, or even Jpy, or Aud?

3. How can we spot an movement due to fundamental change to get a new big trend in half of 2017 year?

4. What do hedge funds or large banks focus (or look) at moment? Can we guess what they are currently doing? Or where do they push the market to go in 2nd H of 2017?

Can we talk US dollar first?

List of your arguments for extended USD? Fundamental or technical or cycle or what?

List of your arguments for brief USD? Fundamental or technical or cycle or what?

Friday, we go to Euro?

Next Monday we go to Yen or Pound?

Here are a couple ways I use in seeing opinion:

1. Assessing the fundamental health trends of a currency by utilizing a spreadsheet that keeps tabs on major news events like GDP, unemployment, CPI, etc.. Interesting the way the USD (brown line) economic news for the past few months has been trending lower.

2. COT Data is another resource to check at when it comes to possible fluctuations in Sentiment/Trends. It is founded on Forex they have a tendency to trend in the same instructions as exchange. It is a report that's delayed and contains a lot of info. I just focus on the Non-Commercials part if they're adding or reducing their positions (long or short). In a downtrend USD has been for the past couple of months. The picture below is a look at the opinion for every currency.

Overall on the USD has some headwinds to work through before turning bullish, imho
