W.D. Gann theory believes that if there are two consecutive days of rise then the trend is considered up.

So if the current days bar closes in the next 1.5 hours in the positive, we should be officially in a uptrend, according to W.D.

I wonder if he considered the type of world volatility we have now, back in the 1929 depression when he made his millions.

Moved stops on these 2 lots to below .9400, and glad I did. Looking at the 4hr chart, there does not seem to be much resistance until .9700 area. I will look to TP there.

Regards,
Took profits on both lots @ 9710. Looking for a pull back to get long again. Looking for 1 lot around 9650, and another below 9600 (if possible). If we don't make 9650, will buy a 9700 break up.

Looking strong here so far in NY. She may have some sort of pull back ( just a feeling ).. EZ wows could pull of the ' risk on mode' also.

TP 1 hit and TP 2 set 4 pips too high and waiting for re-test of 9750/ 9746 for 2 remaining positions for now and 1 runner..

Good luck!

9760 is the 61.8% retracement from 9985 to 9400. If it breaks, it will go to 9860 and then probably will go to test 1.0000
Try 0.025 lots short at 9763 with stop at 9793.

I sure like to see how NFP unfolds to take position on this pair. Currencies are moved by Risk Sentiment these days so I am taking this:
Higher than expected NFP = Long AUDUSD, Short USDCAD
Lower than expected NFP = Short AUDUSD, Long USDCAD

Cheers!

All of those 0.9400 positions closed? or do you still have 2 lots holding from that location? I didnt noticed that 0.9400 was a major multi year support/resistance level. You nailed it at such a good level!

currently I am out. been scalping short and long till i get a better sense of direction.
This SSI chart doesnt show much of AUD direction either with traders almost evenly long, short side of the camp = no direction to show.

I show a confluence of 6 fibs at .9756 to .9778 from 3 timeframes (4hr, 1hr, 15min)...... also have the weekly pivot at 9762ish...

hmmmmm.... Brick wall for the Bulls?

waiting for short term momemtum to reach overbought to match up with longer term momemtum and may just have a nice short. The 1hr timeframe showing a potential expanded flat corrective pattern... if that is how it pans out, I will look to cover shorts in the 9575 area. entry order in place for a short @9778 tight stop 9824, target 9574... with NFP approaching my trade plan includes a SL move to BE after plus 30 pips reached.......... see what happens

Im also thinking of putting a Sell order @ 0.9755 with SL at 9785 for a wishful thinking of 0.9600.. too bad, I put the order just when it started moving down atm.

I have no clue how NFP will print. could be big positive? could be big negative. Challenger Report claims Government and BoA sacked 150K workers last september... big number.

AUD/USD .9735

Well its friday and it was bulls week.. About time they backed a winner.

But really what have they built their hopes on ? PROMISES..?

It doesnt ride with me so anywhere near .9780-.9800 im a seller.

Good luck punters..

why don't you take a break and wait for the nof tmr?
9731 doesnt seems like a strong support and 9767 looks like a strong resistence that is unlikely to break before the news so be careful and good luck with your trade buddy!

You might be right mate. Sometimes I can be a bit "trigger happy".
One of my rules however is not to trade 1hour before or 1hour after the nonfarm, too volatile for my liking...

I wish you goot trades today, tomorrow and into the future!
