CryptoCurrency News: Erik Voorhees



Erik Voorhees always seems slightly out of step. An early evangelist for the tech, Voorhees may be a rarity in that he has not only maintained but grown his relevance on the industry stage, all the while fighting for an unpopular block size increase and launching projects that seem years ahead of their time. Still, controversy seems not to catch this sly fox, as 2017 saw a victory lap for Voorhees, who emerged as one of the few early advocates who's been able to adapt to its changes.

CryptoCurrency News: Amber Baldet



In darkness or in light? Either way, Baldet seems right at home whether she's onstage at a banking conference or somewhere in the islands, posing for pictures at an "ethereum unicorn party." Will she emerge as a real deal innovator? Or is she the ultimate imposter banking infiltrator? While Baldet's story is yet to be told, her association with one of the largest banks in the world, and power position on its so far compelling blockchain efforts are more than enough to enthrall imaginations.

CryptoCurrency News: Jihan Wu



Master of the ASICBoost, conjurer of Antbleed... Perhaps no character in the pantheon of industry leaders has been the subject of more conspiracy theories than Mr. Wu, a passionate bitcoin believer who's been reviled for his views. The young co-founder of Chinese mining giant Bitmain, he might not exactly be the villain we all believe. But, what might be for certain is that if there's a title for "most misunderstood," Wu would win hands down.

CryptoCurrency News: Bitcoin Sign Guy



The man behind the sign steps into the light to reveal his motives. In a year beset by savage infighting, Bitcoin Sign Guy took a stand, with a small action that not only broke the internet, but raised the spirits of a beleaguered bitcoin community then ravaged by a years-long intellectual war. Were we all Satoshi? Maybe not in 2017. But, we were all "Bitcoin Sign Guy." Read more:

CryptoCurrency News: Jamie Dimon



"Bitcoin is a fraud." Four small words ignited a maelstrom when JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon took the stage at a conference in September. The blockchain world was never quite the same again. In response, bitcoin became the talk of Wall Street, and in that dialogue a beast was unleashed that maybe ... just maybe ... took bitcoin out of obscurity, to its new peaks above $10,000.

CryptoCurrency News: Charlie Lee



It's good to be Charlie. After years of working at the first "Bitcoin Unicorn," Lee stepped out on his own in 2017 to take up arms against those who would delay bitcoin technical development. His weapon? The cryptocurrency network: litecoin. With the network – once languishing, now revitalized – Lee pulled no punches, becoming the opinionated voice of reason in a market that's known for its insanity.

CryptoCurrency News: Naval Ravikant



If crypto assets really are the "Craziest Bubble Ever," then Naval Ravikant is the movement's elder statesman. The founder of AngelList, Ravikant didn't talk much about startups in 2017, instead preaching the gospel of the ICO on Twitter in 140-character bursts that were part roadmap and part prophecy for a burgeoning industry. In the process, he helped open doors for a new wave of innovative cryptocurrency projects, giving a vital boost to an industry that had all but been locked out of Silicon Valley following bitcoin's 2015 correction.

via CoinDesk

CryptoCurrency News: Joe Lubin



Part sheriff? Part outlaw? Either way, Joe Lubin appears right at home in the "Wild West" of cryptocurrencies. The leader of a company that's part ethereum project incubator, part change-the-world commune, Lubin showed no shortage of influence in 2017, launching some of the first successful ethereum tokens and winning over countless enterprises to the platform. If Vitalik envisioned the new world, Joe Lubin just might be colonizing it.

CryptoCurrency News: Yao Qian



Call it the biggest short in history. China took plenty of actions against cryptocurrencies in 2017, banning ICOs, shutting down domestic exchanges and all but taking a match to what was once one of the industry's largest and most thriving ecosystems. But if China is setting a course apart from the world, Yao Qian may be its biggest asset. The man in charge of rethinking bitcoin on behalf of the world's largest state isn't just empowered, he seems to know crypto inside and out.

CryptoCurrency News: Pieter Wuille



Speak softly and carry a big SegWit? If bitcoin saw its biggest and most controversial change this summer, the evolution can all be traced back to one developer. Still, the founder of the controversial startup Blockstream and the network's most prodigious coder, Pieter Wuille, is a bit of a mystery. In an industry with no shortage of egos and bluster, though, Wuille is a rarity, choosing to let his code do the talking for him.

[FOREX TIP] AUDUSD Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

AUDUSD Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

The Aussie has had a strong rally but now we reached a resistance level from where the price has a chance to provide us with a retracement before the current bullish run resumes. The current resistance level at 0.7800 can provide us a sell off towards the first support level that only comes at 0.7730. The stochastic indicator is starting to reset itself after it has been in overbought territory for quite some time now. At least in theory we can expect the price to pause until the stochastic indicator resets.

The Australian economic calendar has only the Trade balance figures as risk events that can distort the market volatility. The biggest risk event of the week remains the NFP report. Based on the market consensus we should expect the unemployment rate to post a solid 4.1% which is the lowest level since 2000. The number of new jobs added during the last month of the year is expected to come slightly lower at 189k.

USDCAD Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

The USDCAD has held above the big psychological number 1.2500 despite the strong sell off into the year end. We’re also near our support level 1.2550 from where we can expect a bounce and a return back into the range. Only a daily close below the big round number 1.2500 will open the door for more downside.

On the upside the first level of resistance only comes at 1.2663 followed by 1.2784 the middle of the previous price range. The stochastic indicator is already starting to bounce from oversold condition which is a bullish signal. The Canadian economic calendar will bring on Friday the Unemployment rate which is expected to inch higher to 6% versus 6.1% while the job numbers are expected to only show a modest gain of only 10k new jobs versus 79.5k.

[FOREX TIP] GBPUSD Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

GBPUSD Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

The GBPUSD has finished the year on a strong note like most of the other USD crosses. It seems that the broad based dollar weakness has been a widespread phenomena this year end. The British Pound has managed to surge above the big psychological number 1.3500 and the weekly – yearly – close above the big figure is a bullish signal. The stochastic indicator is already in overbought territory and the fact that we couldn’t break above the top of the range represented by the 1.3550 swing high makes us cautious. The bullish case will have a strong case only if we manage to post a daily break above 1.3550 which can open the door for a retest of 1.3657.

Monday is the New Year’s Day and the market will be closed. We should expect on Tuesday only light trading due to the holidays. The UK economic calendar will bring the Markit Manufacturing PMI figures which based on the market consensus should come slight lower at 58 versus 58.2 previous reading. The FOMC minutes are also scheduled to be released on Wednesday which are about to give us more clues into the last Fed meeting when the Fed raised interest rates.

[FOREX TIP] Monthly Forex News Events that Might Affect EURUSD Volatility – Jan 2018

The EURUSD has finished the year 2017 on a very strong uptrend and it remains to be seen if we have more legs to the upside in 2018. After the Fed has delivered on its rate hike forecasts now the focus in 2018 will shift toward the ECB and a possible timeline for QE tapering which, at least in theory should support the bullish case.

The Fed has raised their 2018 growth forecast and now the consensus is that the Fed will continue on its current aggressive path to raise the rates 3 times in 2018. On the other side of the monetary policy spectrum, we have the ECB which has signaled that it might start unwinding their balance sheet, now that the inflation is close to reaching the ECB target. In essence, the EURUSD was driven by both central banks: the Fed and the ECB.

For the time being the ECB is expected to keep the 2.3 trillion assets purchasing program beyond September 2018 which can still have a negative impact on the EURUSD exchange rate. Usually, the first month of a new year is set to be a very active month and can give us the trend of the year depending on which side we break. The January seasonal pattern sees the US dollar having a strong bullish run which means that the current EUR/USD can see a retracement.

The seasonal pattern only gives us the tendency of a particular currency to exhibit a certain behavior at a certain time, so we have to carefully monitor the pattern and how the fundamental forces interact with the price action. Going forward into 2018, we’re going to analyze and disseminate the major news event for the upcoming month that can be the catalyst for higher EURUSD volatility.

“Don’t risk significant money in front of key reports, since that is gambling not trading.”
– Paul Tudor Jones

Monthly Forex News Events that Might Affect EURUSD Volatility – Jan 2018

 

We have to keep in mind that the first month of the year can give the tone for the rest of the year and since the Fed has appointed a new chairman his views on monetary policy will be scrutinized more closely by the market. Now, let’s move forward and see what the biggest risk events in January 2018 are:

  • Monday, January 1, 2018 – The first day of the New Year will see the Forex market closed so no trading activity will take place.
  • Wednesday, January 3, 2017 – The German unemployment rate are scheduled to be released. The unemployment rate is at the lowest level since 1990 after it fell to 5.3%.
  • Friday, January 5, 2018 – First Friday of the new month will bring the NFP job report, which can be the catalyst for some trend development. The market consensus is again for a figure above the 200k mark after we saw a very healthy labor market in 2017 that has sent the unemployment rate to 4.2% a 17-year low.
  • Thursday, January 11, 2018 – The ECB monetary policy meeting accounts will give traders further clues on the ECB’s next steps.
  • Friday, January 12, 2018 – The US CPI inflation figures are the main risk event of the week. The moderation in the inflation will certainly hinder on the Fed ability to hike more so any miss in the CPI inflation figures can be negative for the dollar. Current CPI annualized inflation rate still stands above Fed’s target at 2.2% but it’s still off the 2017 high which was at 2.7%.
  • Thursday, January 25, 2018 – The ECB interest rate decision and monetary policy announcement is the highlight of the month because the ECB can set the monetary policy guideline for the entire year.
  • Friday, January 26, 2018 – The US GDP figures for the last quarter of 2017 are scheduled to be released. The market consensus is expected to see the US economy posting another solid quarter after it grew by 3.2% in the Q3.
  • Tuesday, January 30, 2018 – The EU GDP figures for the last quarter of 2017 are scheduled to be released. The EU economy is still expected to fall behind the US economic growth.
  • Wednesday, January 31, 2018 – The Fed will announce its interest rate policy and the market consensus is for no major change in the monetary policy. However, the Fed can set the tone for the entire year.

[FOREX TIP] USDCHF Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

USDCHF Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

Technical Outlook: USDCHF closed the week after price briefly fell to 0.9741 support level. The decline to the support level came amid price failing to break past the resistance level that was established near 0.9894 – 0.9861 level. Further declines cannot be ruled out but a break down below the support level could see the USDCHF declining towards 0.9563 level of support. In the short term, price action in USDCHF could be seen consolidating within 0.9861 – 0.9741 region. A breakout from this level will establish further direction in the short term but the bias remains to the downside.

Fundamental Outlook: The week ahead is quiet for the Swiss franc which will see the manufacturing PMI report and the inflation data for the month. The focus will shift to the U.S. which will see a very busy week ahead. Data includes the ISM’s manufacturing and non-manufacturing reports including the release of the FOMC meeting minutes on Wednesday. The monthly private payrolls data from ADP is due on Wednesday and will see the first non-farm payrolls data of the year coming out on Friday. The payrolls report covers the period of December.

[FOREX TIP] USDJPY Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

USDJPY Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

Technical Outlook: The USDJPY extended strong declines last week after price action briefly touched the resistance level near 113.50 level. The declines could now be seen extending to the 112.07 handle where support is likely to be tested.  The previous test to this support was met with prices bouncing off strongly. We therefore expect to see a more firm retest of the support level here. In the short term, USDJPY could be seen maintaining the sideways trend within 113.50 handle and 112.07 support. With the Stochastics oscillator in the oversold area, price action could be seen bouncing off in the short term but the gains are likely to be limited.

Fundamental Outlook: Economic data from Japan for the week ahead is relatively quiet. Details include only the bank lending data on Monday followed by the final manufacturing PMI report for December. Manufacturing activity is expected to remain steady. However, a beat on the estimates cannot be ruled out especially after the recent Tankan manufacturing report showed that Japanese firms were upbeat on the global economy and trade. The USDJPY will be looking to the global developments as well which could impact the sentiment in the yen.

[FOREX TIP] EURUSD Weekly Forex Forecast – 1st to 5th Jan 2018

Technical Outlook: The EURUSD ended last week on a high as the currency pair was seen rising to a 3-month high. Price action touched the previous highs formed near 1.20 and the rally marked the completion of the bullish flag pattern that was identified in last week’s commentary. Following the rally to the 1.20 handle, the common currency could be seen consolidating at this level in the short term. Any declines will be limited to the 1.1901 level where price could be seen retesting the previous highs of the bull flag pattern. Alternately, if the bullish momentum continues, the common currency could be seen pushing even higher.

Fundamental Outlook: Economic data from the Eurozone gets into high gear with the new trading week of the month focusing on the economic reports covering the period of December. The data is expected to show how the various economic indicators in the Eurozone have performed during the final month of the year. Data includes the inflation report and the services and manufacturing PMI data from the Eurozone. The week concludes with Friday’s inflation report for the Eurozone. Still, the economic data is unlikely to bring about any major changes to the currency’s performance.
