not going to parity anytime soon
Europe, London and NY will take this beast above 91 tonight.

Sounds like a good spot to add another short then. Thanks puks.

To fammira; how do you hedge with Oanda? Is it, you will long another pair like NZD/USD or AUD/JPY?

Thanks

I don't think it'll go over 0.9050 tonight; that's my call.

What if the US employment statistics are also much better than expected? The up spike we've seen today may be completely annihilated and thensome.

Fammira, what does it mean when people say taking profit during last quarter? What happens to A/U or other currency pairs? Does it always happen during the last quarter of the year?

Also, what does it mean by parity? 1:1 for A/U?

parity in this case means AUDUSD would reach 1, correct

about profit taking, I don't understant your question, can you please clarify?

I wouldn't put all my eggs in this basket tonight, in a bottom to top trading week such as this one there is almost always one down day and Thursday is statistically the day that happens, (I'm talking about the S&P and Dow here not the AUD), then Friday moves up to close the week on its highs.
Doesn't mean that has to happen tonight, but its something to look out for.

Hi guys,
oh my god!!
8 hours ago I put crazy pending order (short) at 0.9025 - expect unexpected
Weekly and monthly chart looks abnormal for me, any ideas when Aussie finish this rally?

In my opinion the Aud will only have a decent pullback is when we have a sell-off in world equity markets.

Currently the US equity markets are in a primary Bear market and we are yet to see the next leg down, according to Elliot wave, the US equity market is in a primary bear market in which we have experienced the first large wave down, this current leg up is seen as a correction, when this will happen is no one knows until then the upward trend in the AUD may continue, currently I am short 90.25.
The market has already factored in the rate rises and bullish AU economy it is just a case of waiting and watching for a break of this powerful trend.

What an amazing run this pair has had. I take my eyes off of it for awhile to study the G/J AKA The Beast and it makes a huge run up. When will it stop?

Can we expect Parity for this pair? I think we can.
The interesting thing is that living in Australia, I cannot see any of the businesses do well in my day to day life. I speak to hundreds of people weekly for business and all are complaining lack of business. More and more business premises are coming up for lease and commercial real estate is falling both in their fetched sale price as well as rental values ( if they lease out). So where these figures come from I dont know? Any thoughts?

I'm really not sure where I read it and I didn't quite understand. Something like in the last quarter, many traders will be liquidating their positions so some currencies will drop to a certain point. It's ok if you didn't understand but I'll try to see if I can come across the item again. Thanks.

Good morning Everyone!!!

Well the .9040 area seems to offer some resistence. On the other hand, GOLD is still very BULLISH so chance are that the 0.9040 level would break soon! Lets see!

Well my short is more of a short term (as i'm a day trader as of now) and believe it will pull back a bit before if goes up further!
how short is your short a bit risky though

Hi Tradoholic. I agree 100%. We're in Darwin now because this is where we could get work, although the situation is improving, things are not booming by any stretch of the imagination.

To my mind there are two financial worlds. One that we live and work in every day, and the other that politicians and traders use. That one is built on a house of cards, and bares no relationship to the other, everyday world.

I can live with this split. I just treat trading as a game. It has very little relationship with the world as I live it, but it is a good game to play, and when I get good a playing it, I can move up and live in this other world. Until then, just need to buy some more AUD/USD when it drops again. Every little pip counts.
