NZDUSD has made a climb and is starting to look sexy again. Going to use time to gauge an entry.

Do you think it will retrace more AK? I'm thinking it will drop further in the next 3 hours
Weeell... since you asked, and since I'm primarily a pivot trader, I wouldn't short it from here just yet (see chart) OR I'd be real careful about doing so, AND I imagine Frankie will bust every stop in sight that's still standing before turning the reins over to the London gang.

I was speaking specifically of risk aversion returning on the longer TF's and yen making a (likely?) double top on the Daily. I posted elsewhere on this sometime last week but I forget where now, one of Jays threads I think.

Some people here seem to think the dollar weakening against the yen is always a sign of "dollar weakness" but forget that pair is the anti currency. The dollar will almost always weaken against the yen when risk aversion sets back in but that don't rarely means squat these days relative to the other major pairs......

It sure has been. Over the last several weeks I can't help but look at this chart to help me across the board even though I consider my positions here long term. Been very handy for me lately.

i have.. central banks held it up..we already should be much lower. look at you sma's on weekly setting..chf.8 crossed 50 ...21 crossed 34.....eu 8 crossed 200... 21 about too touch it ...21/34 crossed 50
maybe so but look at usd/chf june/july/august, it was stuck in current range for 15 weeks. i dont know, my plan is basically gonna short usd/chf until i see gbp/jpy at 146 and then il short that. chances of it working out is XX%. lol.

greetings PROs,

I've been following your posts day by day, and it is really beneficial to me to follow the advises that I read here, (although confusing sometimes!!!),

would you guys advice for a short hit now? or we are still expecting more dramatic up-word slops?

no. just look at usd/chf. we all want e/u to go down, and it will, but we can't force it. give it months , not days. just my 2 cents.
i see a big ass W.. so big this chart dont show it all...i posted the bottom a month back ... with reason

yourself bro...

I guess I maybe let the cat outta the bag... but I'm pretty sure it'll get buried under 5k of skizzer posts soon enuff.
i think many people know this as u mentioned, when risk gets sold, yen pairs get sold harder then usd pairs. though, there may have been a time period usd pairs were sold harder.

i know about the W, but i also see 13 weeks it was in 400 pip range 1.10-1.06 last June/July/August. I'd rather play the range than spend the next 50 days for it to clear 1.09.

it depends on the correlative actions. yesterday was pretty clear that it was all Yen until just before the announcement.

charted below....
if USD had been strong, dollar yen would not have been dragged down along all day...see red box.

Now the real buying in USD only came after the ratings announcement. See how dollar holds up vs Yen while Eur sells in the blue box....

well, sure it could dive and start a fierce down trend, but that's not what the charts have been doing in the past 50 days, it's been slow. i only have my charts.
Agreed. Be patient and wait for a good price. Maybe it does go down heavily, but in my limited experience rushing in (shorts at this level) is almost always a bad move.

Great post... and why I was careful to say "almost always". I used to love to trade UJ, it was all I traded except for GY (...till my nerves couldn't take it any more)

But somewhere along the line, we had a break. I lost synch with the thing and moved on to EU.

I just remembered an old post...


i was nett short dollar (long eurusd and short usdjpy) which was sort of neutral but was alot heavier on the euro side (thats why i got my ass kicked). when Yen's and euro's motion sync, we could vaguely guess that the crosses are making a ruckus. and boy were they were all over the house yesterday.

It was like dollar was shit, but euro...well euro was shit-tier?

good morning everyone.
I am neutral right now looking for a good entry but might just take today off as FOMC tonight and expect sideways moves.
When considering FOMC, there is really nothing that can help € I must admit.
Should they change the language it will drag € should they hint anything about raising interest rates that will kill €,

Should we get € back to strength for whatever reason I have the following pending orders to short her:
3277
3340
3380
3417
3440
3500

Targets:will be the same as entries just the other way around just the first 2 will be held till 3156 and 3100.

This all longer term and has nothing to do with my usual trading.
Still will take positions in regards to pivots etc etc...
