I just don't know how you could have a lot of confidence in that momentum given quarter end flows.</p><p>In any case, the dollar is continuing to extend higher and has erased a hefty loss against the yen and is now trading 16 pips higher.</p><p>This certainly isn't a pretty picture heading into Q4.
