I'd be inclined to wait until the market is fully liquid, the early trade in the Asian session, and first session of the new week is always a little more risk prone than when the market is in full swing and you can see clearly how strong or otherwise the support really is.

But each to his or her own. It's your money.

Caution, patience, discipline, knowledge and experience are what you get from the "kaboom". I traded AUD short all morning, did nicely, but cautious at this time (still) about going long. Need more evidence.

Swissy hit a road block at 1.18400. It may have another attempt. Sure looks like it wants to go north. The rest of the session will be interesting.

When the European session opens. Mid afternoon Aussie time. The greatest intensity occurs however when both Europe and the US sessions are running concurrently (in the dead of night for us alas). I don't usually ever leave a trade on overnight. I prefer to sleep well.

One should never under-estimate the strength of the USDCHF. It has this habit of consolidating endlessly before popping (up or down), which is one reason why I won't trade again today until it has some clarity of direction.

In fact, it is such a nice day here, and market is sufficiently undecided at present, think I'll go surfing this arvo and look at market again later.

Dropped 300+ pips overnight.

Well its working for you so far, have you taken profit or letting it ride?


Why did you go long at 6716? Gut feeling?

I guess there is an up down pattern there.

Interesting, Reuters just reporting that China's trade surplus hit a record $35b in Oct. Not exactly the scenario for an economy slowing to 5% as some would have us believe. And the AUD's fate? We shall see.

I'm looking at the 6550 support actually.
I just saw a news report where they were talking to somone from the National Australia Bank, they are predicting 3.25% "with in a short period". This comes after the worst ever result on their business sentiment survey.

Went long about 10 mins ago. Think the swissy has run into a brick wall (large collection of wick action to the upside of the candles on 15M chart, meaning serious price rejection, south travel likely). Will watch closely.

U might want to look at the weekly chart too. Put in a 200 MA and you will find that the 200 MA has provided strong resistance since 16 Oct '06. Today's 200 MA will be 1.1960. If this price can be crossed, then we can safely look at the USDCHF rally.
Just my two cents worth.
