A/u n/u have historically been good because of their high interest rates. Face it, if you had an extra billion or two lying around would you want to keep it in the US that pays shit or put it in the country with the highest interest rates.... there are other reasons too but that is a big one.
I wonder about this too. Right now there's fantastic A/U carry trade. No brains required. But watching EU and GU unwind doesn't bode well for the future of all things positively correlated with US indices.

Yeah, it appears something big is going to happen and when it does.. hopefully your not in it the wrong way. Like you said, a blind man can trade A/U right now.. and N/U for that matter.

What I have found though is things that are correlated tend to move up (or down) to their major resistances or supports. Then they wait for the other pairs to catch up. The USD/CHF hit new 25 year lows this month... could be more that that is as far back as my charts go.. so like you said, things positively correlated with the US indicies are in deep shit.

Now with the E/U and G/U both dropping, suggests that Europe has bigger issues than the USA...Hard to believe.

I spoke with someone today that was actually saying they are trying to crash all the major currencies in order to establish a world currency. Not sure I really go with that, but hey anything is possible. Really from a commerical point of view that would be good.. Don't have to worry about fluctuactions. Problem is how do you establish how much each country gets and who is in charge of the printing of the currency....Things to ponder.

Arghh! Current price: 1.54, right up against the DPP.

Grr ... Note to self: stay in the trade! This Asia timeframe I find is love it and hate it, all at the same time!

Now, usually the DPP is a bounce, and often Asia PA brings things back right where we started, which, I would expect to get revisited, before he with the most moving power decides what next.
OK, made up for it selling the DPP. Channel play underway for now ... looks like she might bounce further up as part of frankie fakeout - USD weakness/retrace underway. Staying short and entering long at strict BE.

I'm going long - looks like a bottom pick , honestly it isnt
Well - would you believe it? Price gets to 80% of my TP and then retreats back to BE while I am asleep. Things like that hardly ever happen in FX do they?

The long is still on ... RR 1:2.5
