Wow, the thread is quite, so anyway I'm short at 1.00834, no SL, no TP that's the way I roll....

On that note I love it when people on the threads get on each other about their analysis and whatnot...if I may I wold like to help some of you guys...apparently for many of you English is a second language no big deal as you are very articulate, however you guys really lack in the area of slamming or cutting someone down something only a native speaker would know how to properly do, I mean come on toilet, toilet, flushing WTF is that????

I volunteer...
Wow your english is quite something, i mean you know, er, ummm, yeah IT IS GOOD man, thank you for taking the time...
And you already had a go at fixing it?

It's triple intrest Wend.! The delight of all Aussie longs and the bain of trapped shorts. Went long again 3 lots @ 1.095. Have stop @ 1.098 to protect the intrest payout. Let's see if the low leverage yeild hungry crowd can give us a push up. Will close at 1.0120 if it hits before intrest payout. No reason to be greedy! Good trades to all!!

BTW-- I am not really a scalper, but that is all this pair has been offering lately.

Regards,

I kinda looks like the "My Little Pony" pattern here: http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...&postcount=440

It's a very rare pattern, but one of the most profitable for those who know how to trade it.

Dollar parity days are numbered
March 09, 2011

SOARING oil prices threaten to end the Aussie dollar's dream run and send it tumbling below parity with the US greenback.
The local currency is trading about $US1.01 after hitting parity in October.
But spooked traders are worried that the two reasons behind the dollar's stellar run -- Australia's comparatively high interest rates and the nation's strong commodities trade with China -- may be on the wane.

If the recent high oil prices are sustained, central banks throughout the world will be forced...
Hi Ely,do you mind me asking how long you intend
to hold this short time wise and also do you know
how much its going to cost you in swaps?
Thanks.

lololol, more bad news for the Aussie, and people just keep buying it up. So funny. Tried to close my short at 1.00648 and got requoted 5 times in a row. What a bunch of bastads. Would have been a nice 30 pips... oh well, on to the next one.

That's why most people say that FOREX = GAMBLING..

With -10K number, the AUD should go down like mad, but it goes up... who can really understand this?

Pretty crazy if you ask me.

Don't worry, keep it till it drops to atleast 0.9000.
Aussie$ is knacked and is showing clear signs of stop hunting movement...before the price correction thats awaiting this over-valued pair.

Naw, I'm a scalper on the Aussie, or long's only for long term. Already closed for +5 when my broker finally decided to give it to me. Don't want anything to do with that interest rate. With every trade we run the risk of giving the markets more money, i'll be damned if I"m going to give it to them freely over daily swap.

same problem with my broker. when instruments move rapidly there is no possibility that i won't get requotes till it calms down. you could have closed it by now if you had a TP on the price you sold it though. on the other hand, i don't think so that they buy it because of the bad or good news. it looks more like a habit(?). furthermore, sharks know the news before they release.... we are nothing. we can't move the market a single pip. ok, a few pips, if we try, maybe.

Hi yeah i don't mind

Overnight charges are £1.80 per 1 position. I have been in & out of this pair with easy money, and has more then covered any swaps on my positional play till the next several months!!

Holding wise, no one can predict the time it takes to hit your target. But technically it shouldn't be far off between mid April to end July...we'll see.

Safe trading

Yup, that was a solid bounce off of the S1... wild. Whoever just loaded the boat south is probably a bit annoyed.

They are going to have to do something about that interest rate first. To much opportunity to make money just holding.
