Alternate #ETFs Cross Trading Strategies with #Currency Market

While stocks indices have been in the range, two of the best #ETFs so far that has shown some promising potentials are relative to the currency markets. As these would well be in line particularly with the current strength and tone of the #USD.

Aside form our DX #futures contracts, the UUP #PowerShares DB have started to gain momentum @25.00 level from a slide @24.00  which may continue as  surrounding plays supporting a good rally on these markets is reflected. The consolidation period may have taken longer than usual, yet the market potential is clear as it defines the overall trajectory of the trend.

This goes the same way with the #iShares #Currency #Hedge MSCI Japan (HEWJ) as an arbitrary hedge for the USD strength that has now covered its full leg on the decline while a pivotal price recovery is already in place. The corresponding low on the #USDJPY @100.00 levels held equivalent to the #HEWJ @22.20 low and is currently trading above the 25.00 to this writing.

The correlation of these two instruments are well in line with the USD Index and USDJPY as an arbitrary play with and contrary to each other while waiting for stocks to make its break. Looking forward to the results of the #NFP figure would provide a good volatility reading on the closing activity.
