Anybody could explain me why

    Anybody could explain me why US $ moved up after decision of not rising rates ? To be honest I was waiting to buy Gold bullish ETFs - waiting for $ to start moving lower. Why did I get this degree in Economics I wonder. ?  

    mulisko...the dollar caught a bid

    mulisko...the dollar caught a bid due to the FOMC statement that was deemed by traders to be somewhat hawkish (leaving the door open for a rate increase in December).  This is not to imply it will occur but simply how traders interpreted the statement.  No one was really expecting them to raise rates yesterday. 

    Thanks Steve. I realized it.

    Thanks Steve. I realized it. Just looking forward to rate increase sometimes in December should not be  - in my mind - the reason for such a jump.

    longer term however i'm more bullish on the dollar based on the weekly and monthly charts, something I've stated all year after the March high, to me the weekly and monthly charts looks longer term more bullish than bearish, we'll see how it plays out of course
