STOPS are everywhere..
Most short stops are out of play now though, it's a long trip down the the remaining stops under 450 (for today anyway...)

Think you already missed the short boat for today

i'm long at 1.06764, with a small 15 pip stop. if i don't get stopped out will hold until the equity markets in europe open and plan exit from there
It's quite a sharp fall though. Maybe it will fall a bit more? then retrace?

I don't think the employment figures were entirely unexpected to the downside, the leading indicators yesterday were pointing towards a possible drop. Lots of longs already covered after the rba statement on Tuesday so i don't think the market will have enough juice to go down much further for the moment, but will wait to see what europe brings...

But in saying that my long is not looking good right now!

You would want a retrace back to 600 before considering going short in my amateur opinion.

I'll long again at around 550 if it gets there

I never trade AUD/NZD. The trend is down i see but is it a good pair to trade?
ummm.. its not for the feint hearted..

Fundmentally though AUD is slowing and NZD is growing..

Keep your positions small - you will get great moves on it - it elasticates alot.

1) Unemployment Rate maintain @ 4.9%

2) Unemployment Change , Previous = -22.1K / Now = +7.8K (Good)

Maybe those buyers down below... and those traders who shoot it down .. too early I guess... but .. never mind ! just trade what I see.

I lived in Australia for far too long, I know just how dependant they are to China (instead of USA like they claim emselves to be). Scary...they say China's sneeze means great epidemic to the Aussies.

Well, I'm leaning towards bullish for medium-long term. June 30 marks Australia's end of financial year...would be interesting to see upcoming reports.
trading is my zen

Yes if you take away what market expectations were then those figures look fine.. however its below market expectations and the weaker trend that maybe developing that has market spooked which in affect is rate rise less likely..

Why don't u tell me earlier... together we can shoot it down Nway..I think... I got the best price on long @ 572. My best price on AU was 466. Short still maintain up there @ 1.1010 . I try to get back tht 466 so I left a BuyOrder down there. Hope it goes down.
