Don't worry, I have a big long and my soldiers are near death

There is a massive psychological support line at .90 and I am expecting it to hold.

heavy S/L are placed just below that so a clean break will see us .8950 but I dont "expect" that to happen in this thin market.
Are you expecting a low range week then Puks? I've just checked the high and low - we've only done 168 pips so far with high at 0.9187 and low at 0.9019. Thought we had travelled further than that but it's been more like death by a thousand cuts this week.

Know the feeling very well. The good thing about this market is that if you are serious you can make it back in no time. Once you are back there, you can measure your profits by the experience that the market gives you. Good luck for today

What do you mean your S/L never held? Did it disappear from your platform?

Keep up the positive attitude

i will not go long until atleast 8910 ...

closed EUR short ... still NZD short open ...
just be very careful if you are holding long ... specially this week ... more importantly next 2 days ... and if you are a new trader, i would skip this week ...

IMO ...

I think we all took gold's upward trend as a constant ( or gauranteed) in our calculations. With that retracting its a new spanner in the wheels.

ahhhh Gman, don't say that.

I'm not down by much, so I think I'll hold it a bit. I also have a short on the CAD.

McKal, sorry to hear about your situation. Hope things are brighter in the morning.

Yeah, it's hit a level that I had my eyes on - 50% fib from last swing as well as 34 EMA on daily which has acted as good support since August but I'm too to go all in at the moment. Might wait to see if it can get to 50 MA on daily (currently $1,098.00) as I think we are still going to see some love for the US$.

I guess everyone thinks my analysis sucks anyway because I said I thought it was going down from my USDX chart and it seems everyone was long. Not to worry - good to see everyone is trading what they think.

I always liked your style, although didnt agree with it but praised your patience specially about 2 months ago when you built up all the shorts to 9270 ( I think). I have given up my weekly projections at the moment and only trade on what I see on the 1,5, and 15 min charts. I hope to keep my profits till the market stabilises a bit.

Huh? Me building shorts? I think you have me confused with someone else. Since it broke 0.8500 in September I think I have only placed 2 short trades which were short-lived. Only been going long on this baby but now I'm standing aside. Didn't catch the short train today because when I left home it wasn't looking like it wanted to go down and buying the US$ is not something I like to do very much unless I'm in front of my screen.

Nice one on the gold trades G_Man. You da man!

GM GUYS
thats my chart for today
i wanna apoloize for the wrong call i made yesterday on my chart when i predicted a rebound before the fall down , it was a confussing 5 waves down
anyways i think we r seeing now an ABC rebound wave which i shorted on the pink line and i think it ll reboundback down on one of this Fib, levels shown on the chart ,, the red line is where i dont think the price will penetrate
so its 91 9130 9170 r main levels of Fib for possible rebound
good day guys

I looked back for the past week...a majority of the break outs/reversals are at 3 am EST when London opens
is it possible the correlation of the GPB/USD will dictate the trend of the AUD? after all they are the biggest dog on the block
just a thought

Well, the reasons I am comfortable holding my longs are::: a) Interest rate differential is going to be there till fed starts rising rates (god knows when!!) b) 90 is a big psych level c)Euro retaced about 400 pips from NFP night till last night whereas AUD has only done about 220ish pips c) Good employment numbers tomorrow will definitely give it a boost. d) While there may be profit taking on some fronts, some are seeing this as a great buying opportunity for its ultimate journey towards .95 ++.

My bias will change to shorts ONLY after a convincing break below .8980 (I am already holding some shorts but I am nett Long and will add to the winning side)

AUD weekly chart

Last nights price action has me convinced that the highs are in for the year and we will see 89 in the coming sessions.
