I'm short 91.2 with a 12 pip stop

What's your reasoning behind this trade?

pivot point trade.. small risk big reward.. might not work but if it doesn't I'm in again 91.6 and should easily be able to get my 12 pips back..


looks like the market wants that 1.39 barrier

they finally got it after 4 tries..

Yep finally...

Not sure what your time frame is on the trade but.. watch out for the BoE and ECB rate decisions for tomorrow. You probably already know that but just thought I'd be a reminder.

I'm up 20 and have moved the stop up.. it's free at this point

Nice trade!

Closed Aussie +50 and +25

I think that we'll see .8740 again after today's trendline bounce, but I didn't want to stay in for tonight's news.

nice one DAM

I'm up 35.. stop at 1 pip profit and going to bed looking for 105 pips when I wake up

banked 55

Long Aussie 8738 SL 8718

8735 broke pretty strongly, closed manually at -14

Switched to a short at 8725

long EJ 124.3 20 pip stop manual t/p .. it's at major support so it's worth a try!

ha! .. instantaneous death

I would have hit my 105 pip target on UJ had I left it alone I woke up too early and said "good enough"

The great EURJPY sell-off! I can't believe I entered at 126.9 took profit at 125.6! Forgot the old 'let winning trades run adage'! PISSED!

WOW! What a day!

this might be the end.. looks like some profit taking.. I'm not attempting a long though that's for sure..

Carnage!!! Massive yen strength, gonna sit aside and contemplate this lot!

I find pivots calculated at 11pm est pretty decent, like what oanda uses, but oanda has no S3. While I was busy scrambling to find out what S3 was, Aussie bounced off of it, retracing 30 pips. Good run all in all though
