Ya, that pair got killed, I mentioned shorting it long-term yesterday when it was above 1.6400! I took my profits at 1.6355 though as I wasn't quite ready to start building a long-term position on it just yet.

Heads up for any longer term traders...
GBP looks like a great shorting opportunity, nice head and shoulders on the daily chart, if it doesn't break the 1.6750 it can have the potential to go all the way back down to 1.5000 (given plenty of time of course)... confirmation at the break of the neckline at around 1.6100.

1.6400 seems like a very nice entry today for those who like to bite early, but 1.6500-1.6600 would be ideal after FOMC if the dollar gets smashed... the risk is a couple hundred pips but the reward (remember long term) can be over...
Here goes that post! I hope somebody took it and held!

Update to the FOMC comment, it spiked to about 1.6470 (not quite 1.6500, but close).

If you guys come across any good non-AUD set ups, please pass them along, I don't think anyone would mind... this thread doesn't get a lot of action (nothing like the EUR and GBP threads; which is good, b/c it eliminates a lot of noise and garbage from posts that have nothing to do with trading!), so I think it'd be nice if we had a small tight knit group of traders here to pass along info and ideas for some other trades if the opportunities look golden... what do you guys think? Or would you guys rather keep it strictly AUD related?

i see that the euro and aud r kinda stable and predictable but whats happening to the gbp not cause of september ,, cause the statments coming out of UK wants to hit the GBP down to enhance the exports ,, they r doing this on purpose ,, if u noticed that it got hit from 67th or 68th just cause of the statments coming out of there not the reports ,,, someone talked first about decreasing the rates and that gave it the first hit and today someone talked about how good it is to have it down to enhance the exports ,, its done on purpose

thats mean traders agree at lower price than yesterday and if the sentiment shift to the bear side, we can expect 8600 will hit by weekend?
