2010 Forex Market Trading News

Posted on March 10, 2010 by James

The Financial Fixed Odds update from David Evans, Market Analyst, BetOnMarkets.

 
The top currency in 2009 measured against the US Dollar was the Australian Dollar (AUD/USD).

The AUD/USD rose by over 40% over the year thanks to increasing interest rates, a relatively stable economy and well regulated banking sector.

But who will be 2010’s top currency?

Many are now pointing to the Canadian Dollar as a good candidate for 2010’s top currency.

Like Australia, it survived the credit crunch relatively well and its banks have been voted the safest for two years in a row.

Its interest rates are still at near zero levels compared to Australia’s 4%, so there’s arguably more room for upside there.

The USD/CAD is currently hovering around the C$1.0200 level, a point which has been seen important support and resistance in the past.

The last time the Canadian Dollar broke the C$1.02 level it led to quick sell off in the US Dollar over 8 weeks down to C$0.9000. Could it happen this time?

You can currently get a potential return of 1345% with a Fixed Odds Bet that the USD/CAD will hit C$0.9000 in the next 70 days.
