Hi there

As I spoke about in yesterday's video, our biases that were largely technical and sentiment-based were really flipped onto their backs with the Fed's action Wednesday, and we're still in wait and see mode since a retracement seems emminent in several markets. Chances are that the overall trend has changed, but we're due for a pullback and should be patient in getting in. At least that's the way I'm playing it to cover my shorts and consider longs on Gold, US Stocks, and the EUR/USD. CAD news yesterday whipsawed around a lot and probably muffed up any seemingly decent scalping opportunities we talked about, and the Philly Fed unfortunately didn't come out high enough to warrant a EUR/USD buy. For today's news, we have 1 number:
0830 CAD Headline Retail Sales m/m (1.0% expected) - Deviations from nominal to very large alike have only really been able to move USD/CAD about 30 pips or so on this news item, so don't hold your breath for a ton more without some help from gold, or a favorable USD swing helping you break further. Please watch the video for more details.
If it comes out at 1.5% or higher, USD/CAD should weaken by 30 pips.
If it comes out at 0.5% or lower, USD/CAD should strengthen by 30 pips.
Make sure the Core number agrees with the headline to ensure the direction works out.
