I think that the dollar index is going to make one push down early this week into 80.45, shown in daily chart on the right, and then for the rest of March it will make a move upwards into 86.

The left chart is weekly and shows that the dollar has spent February consolidating above the blue line which is Q1 pp, to me that is bullish. The chart on the right is daily and shows price being capped by the weekly highs on friday the 19th. When this happens price will normally move back into the blue midpoints before the next up move takes place.
Good call. Not sure if my 80.45 is the same as your 80.45 but I marked it on this H1 with period seperators.

im getting tired of my short on AUD/USD..... but it seems like my 30m moving averages will cross in anytime now so downtrend will give me at least break even .

Guys you should watch GBPJPY it hit a super low just now 131.99 a fe mins ago...I think we havent seen better time to buy this low.

i took a position at 132.07 but didnt fill me up til like 4 minutes later when the price was already higher...sux!!! anyway i think is good time to trade this low pair besides the candlesticks show some bulling englufing patern
i'm surprised you're not tired of your long GBPJPY, that suckers going to 20, but as soon as i say that itll bounce like u want it too, just protect yourself. AUDUSD will go down, not to worry

and aud just collapses
Hey Clouds,
Hope you had a nice weekend!

Today that AUD looks like a rollercoaster to me.
Coming back from work now I see my shorts stopped at BE.

90-area looked like a hard resistance to the upside for now.
and we are back there again now. might risk a lil short at that area now.
Just not sure what the upcoming rate-decision will bring us
(or what is already priced-in at the moment)

We will see...

That high? Are you expecting a rate increase? If so, you don't already think it's baked into the price?
When this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious s***.

what I use is correlation , U/cad tends to move before A/U most of the time, now it's moving down- A/U may follow couple of hrs later
+ the anticipated rate hike will give this pair some momentum
+ the pattern in Hr is an expanding triangle which is usually a continuation one

lol..maybe but we will soon find out
But I think no bigger moves until rate-decision

Release of cash-rate decision will be at 4:30 AM my time... so I might be asleep then

--> FF-calender shows expected rate-hike as forecast (Just as in Feb)
Forecast Previous
4.00% 3.75%

--> other sources show "market expectations" the other way
http://www.actionforex.com/action-in...0100227107677/

Lookin back to the charts for Feb. there was a nice drop after the rate-decision...followed by a bounce up from the new low...

Don't what to expect now...
Maybe just ignore the news and look what the charts says tomorrow
