I'm short Dollar again till I'm proved to see the opposite. I'm not that sure anymore to see a stock market drop soon (this month) plus the Dollar is in real trouble and the story that the US will leave the recession first is out of the cards - so no support from that side.

Thanks kawser! 
The last months were indeed very good, but the last week was very poor as I expected a temporary direction change and went long USD. :/ Will post my results later, I'm down ~2.5% this week...

But it's still beta and complete buggy and currently not usable.

Yes, I know... Thanks anyway. Looks like my Euro and Aussie shorts pay off now. I'm long USD/JPY (90.50) as well with a target of 93.

I entered it at 90.50 before it was at 91.xx and entered right now a new one at 90.30. But this looks very strange now. I can't imagine that this risk rally can last much longer - at least I hope so, as I'm deep in the red with my Dollar long positions...

I have two orders just sitting there, ticking me off every time I see them....

I know your feeling, that happened sooo often to me in the past...
Well, my positions are deep in the red but I could close this USD/JPY thing with a nice win. I now think about to go long in the Yen as the new gov of Japan isn't that intervention friendly anymore. Heck I even can imagine to see the USD/JPY below 70 now.
Just added a new short in the Euro at 1.4750. Enough is enough.
Don't get me wrong. I expect to see the Euro at 1.50-60 till the end of this year but this rally went too fast too far. I can imagine at least some verbal intervention from the ECB soon and so a decent dip.
There are bank bailout matters in Ireland and headlines about bank capitalization matters in France this morning and the Euro continues to climb... Strange.
