We are traders and masters of risk. When you become pro you stop over analysing and all you do is sit there, and wait, and wait, and wait some more until you find the perfect trade. What I am saying is that the market makes all the decisions. Our only decision is to listen, feel, and respond to the market’s siren. Always and without exception. Remember, the market never lies. It is only we who lie to ourselves.

Looking Ahead: May 13 through May 17, 2013
Equities continued to advance last week while central banks including the Reserve Bank of Australia and the Bank of Korea reduced interest rates to spur on their respective economies and at the same time lower their currencies to reduce the pain for their export industries. The U.S. dollar exhibited strength against all of its major counterparts. The Japanese yen crashed through the 100 yen to a dollar barrier and continued to slide.
First estimates of first quarter growth will be released for Japan, the Eurozone and many of its member states. Investors will continue to keep an eye on currency moves especially with the U.S. dollar.
