Definitely some stock picking transpiring today in Dow even though it is down. Volume has been on the positive side vs declining shares. Could drop again but just noting the condition.
Sell side of UsdChf and UsdSgd around current market could get legs. Not very enthusiastic about it because they are in a buy cycle but the prices have reached potential turning spots even if very temporarily.
One of the better trades I see is sell side of EurJpy but from higher than present market. Catching falling knives in other pairs does not look appealing.
