Sentiment towards numbers of euro related pairs is important as the single currency starts to break out. Now is a great time to check out some of the most extreme sentiment traders look for contrarian trading signals via sentiment readings.<\/p>

Trading sentiment is most effective when retail traders are running counter trend, meaning that they are heavily leaning against established market trends and in increasingly large numbers. Additionally, once big sentiment skews build it can be a powerful sign that the retail crowd are being too one-sided.<\/p>

Typically, market sentiment readings for an instrument that has reached around 75 to 80 percent is considered to be at an extreme level, while market sentiment readings over 80 to 95 percent is often a strong indication that the trade could be topping or about to reverse at any time.<\/p>

I will now look at the strongest sentiment bias amongst the retail crowd right now. Some of the sentiment skews suggest that current price trends in FX, stocks<\/a>, and precious metals<\/a> are breaking point and big moves may be nearing.<\/p>

EURUSD – Too negative<\/strong><\/p>

According to the ActivTrader Market Sentiment tool a large majority of traders are still bearish towards the EURUSD<\/a> pair as it continues to trade towards the 1.0700 resistance level.<\/p>

The ActivTrader Market Sentiment tool shows that only 22 percent of traders are expecting more upside in the most widely traded currency pair. This is a large increase since the previous trading week.<\/p>

It should be noted that sentiment is very crucial for the EURUSD as we typically look to fade extreme sentiment biases in the currency market.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

EURGBP – Extreme sentiment<\/strong><\/p>

The ActivTrader market sentiment tool shows that only 12 percent of traders are bullish towards the EURGBP<\/a> as it continues to race higher as the UK currency slumps broadly.<\/p>

The sentiment bias certainly alludes to more upside trading, however, it is important to state that bearish sentiment has increased by around 18 percent since last week.<\/p>

I think we are about to see more gains in the EURUSD as traders are caught being extremely short and extremely bearish into the new year.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

EURJPY – Range bound<\/strong><\/p>

Market sentiment towards the EURJPY<\/a> is very bearish, but fairly is neutral right now compared to other euro crosses, which have a much higher bearish sentiment reading.<\/p>

The ActivTrader market sentiment tool showing that only 39 percent of traders currently bullish towards the widely traded cross pair which features the euro and the yen.<\/p>

I think it is worth noting that this sentiment reading alludes to more gains ahead and leaves further scope for upside as sentiment can run to much higher bearish levels.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
