EUR/USD, EUR/GBP and GBP/USD rally post US Fed 25 bps rate hike Technical analysis on EUR/USD, EUR/GBP and GBP/USD within their fundamental context. Axel Rudolph FSTA | Senior Financial Analyst, London | Publication date: Thursday 02 February 2023 EUR/USD surges to ten-month high on 25 bps Fed rate hike EUR/USD rallied to a ten-month high and broke through the psychological $1.10 barrier for the first time since April 2022 as the US Federal Reserve (Fed) raised the fed funds rate by 25 basis points (bp) to 4.50% to 4.75% and its chairman Jerome Powell mentioned the word “disinflation” several times in his comments, leading to a rebound in risk appetite and a weaker US dollar. The cross now trades around the $1.10 mark with the November 2021 low and the March 2022 high at $1.1185 being in focus, as well as the 200-week simple moving average (SMA) at $1.1226 and perhaps even the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the 2021-to-2022 bear market at $1.127. Slips should find support between the late April 2022 high and the 50% retracement of the 2021 to 2022 descent as well as last week’s high at $1.094 to $1.0929. While Tuesday’s low at $1.0802 underpins, the medium-term uptrend remains intact. Source: IT-Finance.com EUR/GBP is gunning for its £0.8897 mid-January high Earlier this week EUR/GBP revisited but then rallied off its December-to-January uptrend line at £0.8763 whilst awaiting Thursday’s European Central Bank (ECB) and Bank of England (BoE) rate decisions with both central banks expected to hike rates by 50-bp later today. The January high at £0.8897 is currently being revisited, a rise above which would lead to levels last traded in September 2022 being reached with the minor £0.90 mark being targeted. Minor support below the £0.8877 December high is to be found around last week’s £0.8852 high. While Wednesday’s low at £0.8817 underpins, immediate upside pressure should be maintained. Source: IT-Finance.com GBP/USD has the $1.2446 December high in its sights GBP/USD is once more heading up towards the December high at $1.2446 as traders await to hear by how much the BoE will raise rates today with the market anticipating a 50-bp hike to 4%. On the way up resistance can be spotted between the December and late January highs at $1.2431 to $1.2448. If overcome, the $1.25 mark would be next in line. Strong support remains to be seen between the late January and early February lows at $1.2272 to $1.2263 as well as along the September-to-February uptrend line at $1.2232. Source: IT-Finance.com

Turn Of The Month Trading Strategy (2023 Update) The TOM Strategy is a well-documented strategy for trading indices such as the S&P 500 & FTSE 100. The idea is simply that the markets make greater than average positive moves from the last part of the month to the early part of the next month. A common rule is go long at the close on the 5th last trading day (T-4) & sell at the close of the 3rd (T+3). Many tests have been done over the years and it has be shown to give a positive return, often more favourable than a buy and hold strategy. See our full write up and analysis. Including our test on 2022 data, https://moneysandi.com/turn-of-the-month-trading-strategy-2023-update/ Has anyone tried it? Let me know how you got on if so.

Question
The_Flash
There seems to be an issue with the web platform over the last 2 days for not just myself but for others on here.
Believe me, I have tried everything that has been suggested in all the other threads dating back for months.
I have just gone to another family member's house and used their computer and the same thing happens. When you log in, the charts are just blank. When you click the tear-out button they open and are blank.
Flash works perfectly on every other site and I have an old CFD account with another provider and charts are working fine there.
I have uninstalled/reinstalled, Flash, Shockwave Player, java, Chrome... nothing works. I also did this on the second computer at the other location and same thing. Not working.
I have allowed Flash plugins to work for the IG website and settings are to always allow it to run flash. There is also an exception in settings to always allow this site to run flash.
There is another thread where they are saying this is a known issue for Telstra customers in WA. Well I'm an Optus customer in Melbourne.
There is no way 2 different computers at two different locations, plus a couple of others users here experiencing the same thing is just a coincidence. There is a problem with my account and/or the IG website.
I've tried all three browsers IE, Firefox, Chrome with all settings set to allow flash to always play on both my computer and my family member's. Please don't say it's a computer/setting issue. Something bigger is stopping a few of us on here from using charts.
I'm only posting this because I saw the other users experiencing the same thing. I'm sure there are more who just can't be bothered or even know about the "community". I only signed up today for this issue to let you guys know.
I need this fixed shortly or will have to move to another provider. Flash works fine everywhere else. Please look into your website.
