what about a long position AUD/USD now? or it will travel further down?

Possible shooting star or doji on the daily chart. Obviously day is far from over though.

Could be a setup prior to NFP on Friday.

could be a great chance to go short aud/jpy and other yen crosses,

93.50 looks like tough resistance for doll/jpy

Hey Daytrader and everyone,

Aud may bounce off around 0.9190 again? forming a small head and triangle formation on the 15m chart.

Any suggestions as to what it's next resistance may be if this happens?

cheers and best regards

(I would copy the chart but I am yet able to work that out, I am using PureDeal, or it may me and my extremely talented comp skills LOL)

AUD is allready heading up slightly now. I thought I could see a very small head & shoulders formation forming in the last 2hrs on the 15m chart.

I am long also from 0.9200

Hi Shahab - happy new year to you too and may it be prosperous.

Good old AUD aye. Back to it's usual tactics. Was just listening to Bloomberg on the box and Mr Harvey of Harvey Norman was being interviewed on the telephone and he was so talking the Aussie economic recovery up. Very unusual for me to see a Chairman of a major retail chain talking up a recovery these days. He doesn't even think interest rates at 4.5% would dent consumer confidence very much. Wonder if the RBA will take note of his comments ....
The Harvey Norman Chairman is a jackass. Don't listen to anything he says. I'm not seeing anything fundamentally positive on the AUD, and I found the retail #'s this morning to be rather shocking. If this economy is so great, people on the ground here certainly aren't showing it. I'm looking long term short. I'm not trading intraday.

Enjoy paying the carry on that. G/U has been paying shorts for a while now and the carry is much much less.

Last year everyone was bullish this pair and I was looking for contra shorts. Eventually that paid off bigtime. This year I am resolved to make some leveraged carry on the contra long side. So far so good. I've just been buying 2 hours before the brokers NY close and exiting at London open every day this year. Carry + a little % on the side.

What everyone keeps failing to realise is that shorters are the one keeping this rally going. In gold, in copper, in AUD, in everything. Big dogs just keep forcing them to cover and we keep rallying on fumes. What would you do if the govt loaned you infinite money at 0%? I would buy the dips on yield.

I don't carry it, I move it my man.

I think you contradict yourself there. The rally may be on fumes, but what about that 0% borrowing?
