200 pip drop on A/U while I take a nap! Geez I must be dreaming... A/U just doesn't move that much.

Amy, do you have a TP or idea of where this thing stops going south? It's now through my LTL and Support.

Yikes!

What do you have as the low for Thursday for au? My charts say 8071 but my trading platform says 8020.

I think Aussie might be rebounding now. If you look at EA, it hit 1.544 region and is going back down. Might set off the Aussie rally as well.

Just my 0.01cents.

No TP just trailing the stop, locked in 500 pips so far, au should keep moving down for the next 2 weeks before it has a major reversal. 66 is in the back of my mind if it keeps falling like this.

How long, on average, do you wait before moving SL to BE? I usually set at 15-20 pips. But I am more short-term I think.

Thursday isn't over yet. My last day candle low was 8150... so far today my low is 8072 but that will obviously be broken!

Hi amyc,
My broker went down to 80191, however, just got a phone call from them apologising and saying they have replaced the extra spike that should not have been there. That’s without me saying anything to them.

i guess it depends on how many pips you are going for i guess. counter trend trades i'd say 20 pips i would use, but depends on the pair. any thoughts on E/J? i might try a sell when i see U/J at 90.20

maybe UJ goes up to 92 by london, and then big sell off tomorrow
