ForexLive North American wrap: No deal or no deal


27% profit every 20 days?

This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.


Obama hosts White House meeting, no fiscal cliff proposal
Fmr Greek finance minister accused of altering Lagarde list
Chicago PMI 51.6 vs 51.0 exp
US pending home sales +1.7% vs the +1.0% consensus
Chatter about 60-90 day fiscal cliff mini-deal
S&P 500 down 1.1%
VIX climbs 16% to highest since June
GBP leads, NZD lags

The euro rebounded above 1.32 at the outset of US trading and quietly circled around 1.3220 afterwards. The fiscal cliff headlines were seemingly a stocks-only story, although the commodity currencies bounced around.

The New Zealand dollar gapped 40 pips lower at one point but bounced right back.

The pound was strangely bid throughout trading, assuredly flow related.

Have a great weekend.
