Levels like 1.0000 are often tough. Do you think the level will be taken out..?

the only volatility was on aud due to the negative employment data....thats expected. Im talking about REAL volatility that were about to see in the next few days.

I think this will break below parity within the next hour. And make the dollar strenghten against other currencies.

heavy seller came in at 1.0050.......it looks like there were buyers at just below 1.00. Given that the data was negative those buyers may go away. Chinese CPI will paint the picture a little better. If it comes in less than expected, that will be very bearish for aud due to the fact that most demand for australian commodities comes from china. So if china does need commodites, australian economy will suffer.

definitely could be, good spot alex ...............most of austrailias commodity demand comes from china.....hint hint.
Thanks Matt.

Today has been crazy, the down move then the up move.

I haven't found a direction but that's ok, been buying the up moves and selling the down moves on short tf's; just accumulating the pips

I notice you use fxcm for charts, are you still with dukas?
If only I knew then what I know now...

I think thats a smart way to think! And if the Chinise CPI comes out worse then expected, the AUD will fall below parity, and the dollar is likely to also strenghten agains other currencies, like the Euro. Do you agree?
Even tho the 30min charts looks to be forming a bullish pattern.

yea i have accts with oanda fxcm and dukascopy. Its always good to have accounts with multiple borkers if you are a retail trader. Sometimes you may experience tech difficulties with one(ie not being able to log in, not getting filled on a order etc....) This is just what we must inevitably deal with as retail traders. For example, last week I didnt get filled on fomc @ 4180 on eu with fxcm, however oanda did fill my order there so I did get at least one trade.

Seems to me we a still in a downtrend. The 3800/20 area has been good resistance over the past 17/18 hrs. I would like to look for a short. The last 5 bars have been rather lackluster so I'll wait for a good bear candle, maybe after that Chinese data.

USD/JPY are having 3 bullish 1h candles, that are likely to help the dollar gain some strenght.

yea i have accts with oanda fxcm and dukascopy.
I still use Dukascopy because of ecn, and a couple of others but dropped fxcm because sine the accounts were repatriated, it just doesn't make sense to use them anymore. I have a hard time managing trades with the domestic leverage but I think the worst part is the no-hedge and fifo requirements.
Found a nice solution for it though, hint, largest fx bank in the world which allows all the above while having the account stateside.

DB. 100:1, full hedge, no fifo. They are a bank, and as such not subject to silly cftc rules.

Been using them for 10 days now and it's just like old days. Only difference is thay are not ecn so apreads are a little higher than Dukas, in line with all the others.
