But they don't know that do they? That's why we wait for the news!

cpi data should meet or exceed - i believe - so I am long. Aussie has been searching for direction this week, CPI will set the trend for the rest of the week.

Consumer prices were up more in Q3 than they were in Q2 and beat analyst estimates with a 1% advance since the last quarter vs. expectations of 0.9%. This will most likely increase pressure on central bank Governor Glenn Stevens to continue to increase rates. At the same time that prices are increasing in Australia, they are falling in other advanced economies making it more likely that other countries will not be forced to increase interest rates in the near future. I see the Aussie dollar as a good pair vs most currencies. The central bank last week reported that keeping the rate at very low levels may be imprudent. Futures show that investors are 100% certain that rates will another quarter point on Nov 3 and there is a 16% chance that rates will rise by half a percent.

Are you saying this one trade you have on is an all or nothing trade?

Sorry to hear that puks

The reaction to the news is sometimes counter to what you might think it should be, and for that reason I always stay out until things settle down again. Yeah you might leave some pips on the table, but that doesn't matter. What matters is protecting your capital.

Sorry to hear that. It's bouncing like a ball now, but it looks like a 50bps hike is less likely.

Lots of positions to get cleaned out here. Funnily the local national news has started this week reporting about Exporters struggling/complaining about the high AUD. As always very good contrarian indicator.
