    Short term impact of the elections (just as with any other news announcement)...$$$ strength resulting from quick spikes here and there. Prices subsequently reverted.

    Long duration, start looking for FOMC interest rate discounts in Q1 (Jan - Mar 2007), particularly after disappointing Christmas sales, slower than expected home sales (seasonally adjusted) and revisions to unemployment numbers. Dems will want to get the economy moving again soon after the new year, thus adding to the clamor for interest rates.

    It bounced back 5 dollars. Maybe because of the movements of the dollar. In accordance with SP analysts, the long-term prognosis of gold remains positive (high demand and reduced supply). And if the dollar will probably be poorer, gold will rise even more.

    I think Moneymaster is Perfect. The prognosis for the dollar is dependent of what the market thinks that the fed will do, not these elections.

    I really don't know Money Ma now ater hearing President Bush's Statement and question and answer period, I am uncertain how far D. Rumsfeld needed in the decision!! Sounded like, OK, Dems, you're in charge what you want!! Perhaps I am reading him (the Prez that's ) incorrect???? Hopefully???

    ANYWAY!!!!!! Up until around Tuesday, my transactions on the GBP, EUR, and CHF were going fine. Following the trend just like they should. Then, every pair took a dip I think I will wait a couple days until I get back to my trend transactions.

    Elections! What a way to mess up a good direction!! Well, what was good direction.

    That dip (USD BULL) was imputed to broker stop hunting. You know that it will grow up again, At any time you hear this.

    I overlooked buying gbpusd at 1.9010 as it dipped that much... my earlier limitation buy at 1.9040 was triggered and exited at 1.9060 to get a little profit however (I dont place stops ).

    How do you understand that? How can you understand some investment firm did place a 500 contract order?

    It has been announced that the US Senate was won by the Democrats also. . .But I think since the win was below 1 percent, they will require a recount. . .What does that mean for the dollar?

    Means squadush. Watch the market now, then watch it during london time to find an comprehension. Overall, I dont think it doesnt have a lot of impact on how the dollar goes. Rather, after Allen does annouce it it might have an impact, but I doubt it. I think players have an impact on how the dollar goes. But dont count on this being the golden ticket. Pick your battles in regards to geo-political'ness. Now IF the gov, mostly Bush, does say that Iraq is in a civil war, which is pretty much is, then expect the dollar to drop big time, but I aint gamblin on that.

    Intrest rates are the number one goes and indiors on how the dollar is going to fare off in the long term. Employment numbers are excellent indiors on the month is going to be for your dollar. And central banks are the drivers of the car that addresses currency. If you truly want to get technical, go read up on each of the central bank notes of the currency you're trading or going to trade. Central bank notes are key to understanding on how things work in the long term. Personally, I hate reading boring material, but when somebody talks from central banks, I have to read, its vital for news traders!
