U.S. Treasury labels Switzerland, Vietnam as currency manipulators...while the fucking selling dollars at any price machine is made in USA...LOL

To be labeled a manipulator, countries must at least have a $20 billion-plus bilateral trade surplus with the United States, foreign currency intervention exceeding 2% of gross domestic product and a global current account surplus exceeding 2% of GDP.

DXY broke 90, now 89.96. Killing traders who were short on pairs with USD, survivors likely to flip and imbalance the boat

AU took off when it broke 76. First TP 76.36

Silver looking like it might make it to first TP at 26 today

I've got a bit of GU after taking some profits at 1.352. Looks like it will hit 1.36 soon, will TP there

Sorry a bit inappropriate. You are in effect bailing out the world in difficult times.

{quote} That slapdown and spike would have taken out quite a few Stop Losses
USD is in a tailspin. GU bulls need to hold the month close above 3433.

EU after 2207, is hands off for longs for me. As you can see pa is above 2207 (above my "hands off"). I have some R at 2245. But its not tested yet. It may be best, to just long the retraces. I have those supports on the chart. If for some reason this week does close below 2107. Lower supports would be better to L. If the month closes below 2137. I would think its less bullish than now.
I think today needs to close 2230+ for bulls. It may retrace some if its below 2229.

Other R areas 2270 and 2284

I dont know how strong 2245 is. Adr may allow it to hit a support. ADR wise maybe a 2169 ish long.

{quote} Short NU 71.67
Closed it a little while ago for a pip. Probably should have held for more, but shorting it doesn't usually yield good results for me. Made a little on it on the way up, I'll leave it at that.

Only thing I'm holding now is silver, it 's done a turn just 8 pips from TP one. I'm well up on it, see how this hour's candle closes, engulfing down now, but half hour to go.

Yeah, I'm not longing against USD now except for one hold. Seems like time for USD pairs to catch their breath, and it's Friday. I prefer to go into the weekend with cash in my pocket

Edit...I lost track of time. It's only Friday here. Another day of trading still ahead

Maybe sit back for 2191, or 2166/58, or some support. Not to short, but to wait for a retrace.
