Hi everyone

Tim Salem - most known as CVJ- is rocking again.

Upon words of Ray Huss - one of our oldest Premium members - CVJ is probably FXstreet’s best student. Now I should better considering CVJ one of our most valuable contributors as everything he is doing at FXstreet.com gets traders attention.

Not only his blog is one of the most followed blogs at FXstreet.com - currently is the 4th most viewed after James Che, Dr. Sivaraman and Wayne McDonell -  but now his morning report is getting itself among the most read pieces on our site, and this is something that really makes me happy.

Give it a look:

Hi everyone

I’m truly happy to announce here today the launching of a new blog at FXstreet.com.

http://blogs.fxstreet.com/fxtoday/

This blog is completely different from all the others as it is the blog of one of you, a trader from Arizona that tries to make a good living from trading Forex.

His name is Tim Salem but he is more known as CVJ.

In words of one of our oldest visitors and good friend of mine Mr. Ray Huss from the UK, CVJ is FXstreet’s best student. What I can guarantee you is that I’ve never EVER have entered into one of the many webinars we deliver every day without seeing CVJ, Ray or Dianne there.

After seeing CVJ’s great contributions at Raghee Horner’s blog we thought it could be a great idea to give CVJ his own spot. His unbiased position  - as he is not related to any company nor have any hidden interest but trading and trying to make profits from it - gives CVJ a privileged position that makes worth to follow him closely.

Tim, I wish you all the best of lucks in this new adventure and you have myself and all my staff at your disposal to try to make it a success.

“A few thoughts concerning Risk Aversion and NFP..” by CVJ
With such massive activity in the low-yielding currencies of the Dollar and the Yen…we certainly have an emotionally heavy Marketplace !

Risk Aversion takes place when the unwinding…decoupling…and non-correlating aspects of “Fear” makes its’ presence known.

The high-yielding high interest rate pairs begin to look for “safe haven”, and repatriate into lower-yielding units like the Dollar and the Yen.

Risk Appetite is the opposite of this phenomenon….when we see repatriation into the high-yielders, with the ” Hollywood Star of the Show” being the Carry Trade concept.

The ECB and BoE hold rates…my efficient and effective friend, Jean-Claude Trichet, is rather muted in his ECB Commentary…the massive 3% falloff in Equities and the Dow….Crude still pulling back….do I need to go on?

This paradigm shift is enough to make your puppy understand the concept of being “averse” to something…….

Seriously….where does this leave us ahead of the most volatile Data flashpoint in Foreign Exchange…..the Non-Farm Payroll Report ?

Discipline and Conviction, a Chartology Guest Post from CVJ
While we have increasing volume and the “base foundation” returning to the Currency markets in the next week or two…we have varying degrees of flashpoints to reflect upon. The strengthening and re-emergence of the Dollar…the weakness of the U.K. and Euro-Zone economies…Crude Oil…Central Bank activity, and so much more…the real flashpoint in my view remains the Gustav storm issue… where a fine trading Lesson is built right in.
