Channels rarely last. My chart says sell. I am not a fundamental trader.
If I do get stopped out, I'll re-enter higher.

OK you are trading at a different time-frame to myself. My most short-term chart is 1 week with 30 min bars. Plus a 1 year chart to remind oneself of where we are in the big picture of things.

Scalping is high-risk and you need to at least factor fundamentals into the equation, otherwise you may as well be playing roulette.

Having said that.. there does appear to be resistance at 8912 so maybe it'll drop near 8875 again tonight which is some nice pocket money. Good luck!

Quoting sinner-
Fundamentals do not agree with buying.

Only greed.
We know AUD is overvalued, but overseas they are looking for excuses to bid the bloated carcass back to mid-90s. Anticipating other's greed is a valid trading tactic.

I'd like see the channel you see also, cause i see it respecting the bottom of the channel, but not the top, only resistance (for certain) i see is 9320
I missed out on the S&P but caught the ASX200 in time. My gold short is bleeding a bit, but I think by late NY session I should be ok.
On the astrological chart, Sun hour ( 8:45 - 9:38 PM Sydney) favours AUD, 80% of the times ( I have it charted in excel) pushes it up. It did exactly the same tonight.

EU is at 1.36 now, if it breaks, could be in for a AU spill

Support @ 8840?
not sure, but EU broke 1.36, so i'd expect 200-300 pip move down from here, over the next days

Solid support at 8830. It needs to test it a few times before it breaks. Going short again at 8847

The movement we just had was due to a news event out of China, how does EU factor in?
