dangerous zone to happyly start shorting, currently closed all shorts from the reverse zone.
I think this zone where it's now got lots of new found supports and they fit with the retrace levels since this strong up move.
so don't think it will go very far, but will see what PA got to offer when there is more power in the market...
i'll keep 9925 close to my eye how price behaves there, if it ever gets there..
Good thing i followed the week candle and not the daily candle's words.

tomorrow might be another spicy day...

AUD/USD .9995

So much for the theory on what Asia does monday do the opposite. ( Must be accept if their is a holiday somewhere).

So the bulls take charge once again as if the magic fairy has sprinkled the dust and everything is ok.- Yeah right..

Too me it seems like the world was onesided (short) and in thin markets it gained momentum and top pickers kept on getting stopped.

Still it has this theme to it so those who are strategically short like me dont waste your powder until the hyper bulls adrenaline subsides.

Happy trading

Smart move

Im however short Euro and AUD.. with a continuation of adding to those but the flexibility to allow exaggerated moves as warned by fragile markets yesterday.

Now the bulls are patting themselves on the back saying we told you so..
Getting the price up from an overly short market is fairly easy.. maintaining it is twice as hard especially since no good news is on the horizon.

But let them have their day in the sun..

Business Confidence improves is the headline.- Aussie dollar bounces 25 pips..

BUT the reason why it did improve was on the back of expectations of lower interest rates and a weaker currency..



Still its the running of the bulls so let them have their fun until someone gets hurt..

The US data - IBD/TIPP Economic Optimism .

Do you think if we saw lower then forecast it would throw enough shadow to push Aussie through parity?

  • Oct 10, 2011 9:30pm Oct 10, 2011 9:30pm
I would have thought the opposite myself, but some other reports from EU to worry about before that.

Also it has already busted through parity last night, so perhaps a little less resistance at parity after that.

On my charts if it breaks bellow 9970 then there is air bellow that hopefully back to the median of the current respected channel ... around 98.

I doubt tomorrow's Home Loans would show AUD's direction. The only Risk Event IMO is the Australian Employment Report on Thursday (2 days from now).

Therefore, till then, its pretty much technical.

Of course there is always something unannounced events that could rock the boat either side. Perhaps something good/bad out of Europe today/tomorrow could overshadow any sentiments.

I am short @ 9970. depends on how it unfolds, I might cut short, or wait it out this thursday.


Attached is a chart from FXCM's SSI indicator. More traders are short AUDUSD and according to the indicator, signals bullish move on AUDUSD... Hmm.. i think im on the wrong side of the road
