Can AUD can go up ?
Well I ain't betting on it at the moment. Markets are too jittery. Stock markets are blood red. Risk aversion is the name of the game again today. I think we are gonna see some more love for the US$.

Hi The Fool , first of all welcome to aud/usd thread!

what do you think gonna happen next week when the dubai market open and us trders back from thansgiving holiday?
Hi ben10,

I expect an atmosphere of profit-taking, risk aversion to dominate. USD up across the board, on average, til the end of the year.

But, be warned, I am often wrong, and since I mostly scalp, it doesn't matter - if I see the bushes move I just shoot up in there & hope its not a Cub Scout.

of course it can't work properly for every trader, but I hope it may be a source for discussion

Yep, just how much love we are going to see for the US$ is the question for me. I still think the US$ is toast (as well as GBP) but I also think we are due a correction, year-end profit taking, divergences everywhere, over-extended yearly ranges and now Dubai.

I'll start the ball rolling. How about 0.8500 AUD and 1.4400 for EUR for starters? Any takers? As for Gold, I haven't got a clue!

if the stocks collapsed (risk aversion) the USD will get stronger, due to the demand for USD (like last year since Aug till Feb 09), this time ,it will be worse cos everyone borrowed USD as carry trade and buying equity and they need to unwind their position if stocks fall down, means we are going to see a new low in all crosses (except USDJPY) (below march 09)

G'day G'day G'day,

I've been in meetings all morning at work and when I returned, I said, WTF???

For me to get breakeven, I need AUD to reach at .9150 as all my shorts are now closed in profit so I am net long.

The most ugliest thing about MT4 is you can't access it from work and/or mobile.

I wont reach home until after 5.30 sydney time (Just in time for EU open).

Help me out here guys. I am net long AUD. How do I hedge/save/recover/get out of this mess?

Going back to meetings. I hate Friday afternoon meetings. fcuk

And just for Puks - sentiment index. Retail traders looking the wrong way it seems. Buy, buy, buy the US$ Let me know what currencies you want in future Puks because I don't want to clog up the thread with the whole lot of them.
