    Raoul, thanks for the report. Do you see any signs of impact to the equity or crypto markets since you published this? Crypto is ripping up right now

    Do JP's dovish comments today (7/28/21) invalidate this short eurusd trade?

      Second this question. Raoul are you looking at Sept, Oct or Dec contract? Sept / Oct already break 1.18. Dec not yet.

    Just a note that CME has a mini euro contract 1/10 the size of the big one, /M6E

    Hi Raul, just a point on the delta variant. It's affecting vaccinated countries too! Cheers, Greg

      There are no “Vaccinated countries.” Only vaccinated people.

    Hi Raoul, "I think the back three to four months of the year will be a great time for crypto.". Why do you think so? is it primarily about your prediction of another surge of QE/fed balance sheet increase within weeks?

      Hi Raoul, thanks for the reply, To elaborate more on my question, what do you think would be the top fundamental drivers for recovery in crypto later in the year? In insider talks, you said 1) more fed intervention relatively) and 2) etf. Are you expecting either or both to happen then later in the year?

    Raoul, Why you choose EURUSD? Why not other pairs like AUD or CAD?

    Thanks Raoul, With regards to the Euro closing below 1.18, do you mean the daily close? As it is right now?

    Just following up on the Covid cases in vaccinated countries. This is a worrying trend. As an example: https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/worrying-me-quite-bit-mrna-vaccine-inventor-shares-viral-thread-showing-covid-surge-most - I think we have a bigger storm brewing as we head towards the end of the year. From what I've read and researched, and this zero hedge article is just one example, I'm not sure this vaccine will solve the Covid problem, which means Raoul's thesis is likely to get a lot worse! I wonder if the FED will be able to save the day if this really becomes a horror show.

      Later in the document Raoul sets an expectation of "this year", or "the coming 4 to 6 months"

      Clarifying my earlier comment: the timeframe mentioned was stated in context of crypto, and not the Euro trade. I guess my long Bitcoin bias is showing here :)

      Just trying to clarify... Sounds like Euro trade timeframe may work relatively quickly ~1-2months in conjunction with risk off in equity markets? Then FED "comes to the rescue" once again and the buy crypto/tech trade comes back into play sometime in Sept-Dec?

    @Raoul - Bravo! As distinct from recommendations a couple of years ago, this set is clear on rough recommended position sizing, potential upside, stop level, and investment vehicles. Much more digestible, without guesswork. Thank you.

    "creating a final panic low. I just don’t know, but I do know that if the stock market falls 15% or more, the Fed will step in and risk assets will fly with crypto and tech stocks leading the charge. I think the back three to four months of the year will be a great time for crypto." AGREE - Thanks for the validation!

    Hi Raoul, great thanks. I've been watching this for a while since you highlighted it some time ago. My eurusd line in the sand was 1.177. Curious to know why you picked 1.18 as opposed to a close below 1.177 or slightly lower. Depending on the trendline drawn, one could wait until lower. Is it in part because of the bond price action and that other currencies appear to be rolling as well that you are comfortable with 1.18? thanks
