Doodermental Analysis

The Sunday Times reported that according to several Israeli military sources, Israel has drawn up secret plans to destroy Iran"s uranium enrichment facilities with tactical nuclear weapons. If such an attack took place, it would be the first with nuclear weapons since 1945, when the United States dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Israeli weapons would each have a force equivalent to one-fifteenth of the Hiroshima bomb. According to the Times report Israeli and American officials have met several times to consider military action. Military analysts said the disclosure of the plans could be intended to put pressure on Tehran to halt enrichment, cajole America into action or soften up world opinion in advance of an Israeli attack. Analysts are worried that the Iranian retaliation for such a strike could range from disruption of oil supplies to the West to terrorist attacks against Jewish targets around the world. Oil prices have fallen sharply since the start of the year, but a revival of tension surrounding Iran would put upwards pressure on oil prices again. John.Noonan@thomson.com

Might be time to stock up on some USDCAD shorts.

How would this be dollar negative?
I don't think anyone knows what they're talking about. Other sources say bunker busters, which we use. And even then, they've been reporting for weeks that the US outsourced Iran to Israel. Lucky them. Lucky Ethopia against Somalia too.

USD/CAD is a commodity pair. Specifically dealing with Oil. USA is heavy on oil imports and Canada is the top supplier of oil to USA. Extream spike in oil is bad for USD and good for CAD.
They are talking about bombing the intial hole with a convential weapon and sending down a 1 megaton nuke bunker buster to bust the centrifuge factory underground. Iseral has been doing the West's ditry job for decades. Like Operation Opera back in '81.

Gold is in a bearish trend with falling volume going into the supply side of the channel. Meaning the current run up is not very strong. It should continue to go up untill early next week with falling volume and the sellers will come in big and strong like it did on early January.

I haven't made a trade all day. I got one signal, and it was a go. Believe it was induced by a dollar sell off for a few minutes by war rumors with a 3rd carrier going to the gulf.
Not my gulf, the unstable one.
What a calm day.
