are almost always wrong. When crowd sentiment is overwhelmingly
positive or overwhelmingly negative ? it's a signal that the trend
is exhausted and the market is ready to move powerfully in the
opposite direction. Sentiment has long been a tool used by equity,
futures, and options traders.
In Sentiment in the Forex Market, FXCM analyst Jaime
Saettele applies sentiment analysis to the currency market, using
both traditional and new sentiment indicators, including:
Commitment of Traders reports; time cycles; pivot points;
oscillators; and Fibonacci time and price ratios. He also explains
how to interpret news coverage of the markets to get a sense of
when participants have become overly bullish or bearish. Saettele
points out that several famous traders such as George Soros and
Robert Prechter made huge profits by identifying shifts in crowd
sentiment at major market turning points. Many individual traders
lose money in the currency market, Saettele asserts, because they
are too short-term oriented and trade impulsively. He believes
retail traders would be much more successful if they adopted a
longer-term, contrarian approach, utilizing sentiment indicators to
position themselves at the beginning points of major trends.
JAMIE SAETTELE is the Technical Currency strategist at Forex Capital Markets LLC (FXCM) in New York. He has contributed to Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities magazine, SFO magazine, Futures magazine, and Investopedia.com. His technical strategy is published daily at DailyFX.com. A graduate of Bucknell University, Saettele is an active currency trader employing both discretionary and systematic approaches to the foreign exchange market.
