Price just ranging between 1.0150 & 1.0380 as Support/Resistance for few days..will just buy/sell near that level for now..Good Luck !!
If 1.0150 breaks cleanly, Im shooting big guns for a 0.9980 target (the next support levels)

this short aint looking good. that efsf news is risk appetizer

However,

"According to guidelines document, EFSF will be able to buy bonds on secondary market if Euro-zone country has sustainable debt."
Greece is not qualified to sell bonds to EFSF....

"German finance minister says still no agreement on whether and how to leverage EFSF $$"
In short, they still dont have any money on the table.

Im in short @ 1.250 SL 1.0315 for a 1.0170 TP (or lower if we can get there)

A small change this time. I short EUR at 1.3820. Hope even AUD follows the same path. Seems like the conditions for EFSF to be stringent.

SSI as of Wednesday, 19 October 2011 17:10 GMT

AUDUSD is now almost -2.0 (or 2/3 of traders are short)

The bigger this number the more it will drive the other side (bull)

Quoting Associated Press
"Greece is getting its hands on the next batch of bailout loans, according to a draft of a debt inspectors' report obtained by The Associated Press. Although the inspectors said Greece has missed its targets to get borrowing down and that the pace of reforms were insufficient, they said Athens will get euro8 billion ($11 billion) of bailout loans so the country can avoid bankruptcy."

In other words, if you owe someone a lot of money, dont pay them and they will give you more money.

I will keep this in mind the next time I have a huge loan (from a local loan shark) and about to get stabbed in the next 3 steps.

Haven't been able to keep up with the news today. Don't know what has sparked the sell off. Maybe I will get a chance to buy under 0150 again. We'll see.

Regards,
Well, how about that. Woke up to find my entry order of 0145 missed by 3 pips!!! O well, money is only something I need in case I don't die tomorrow....

still long 0130 and 0250. Holding for 0350-0400 area.

Usually true. However, SSI is only and indicator. I have seen it be wrong for months at a time. At some point, we will be a lot higher and a lot lower than we are right now. Which comes first?

Before AUD dropped, SSI was net Long.
Before the rise, SSI was net Short and it still is Net Short.

But SSI do change. When?

When there are alot of Shorts, some would stubbordly hold till they die (account zero) or they quit the race when they get a little retrace (ie, short @ 1.0000, price went up to 1.0400, then down to 1.0150 and they close at 1.0180). During these times, Shorts will lessen as price go down and bingo, we get Net Long instead.

I am a firm believer of SSI. It is however NOT something I could trade on an HOURLY Basis but on a larger time frame of at least Daily. So it dont make any sense to folks trading 5Min bars.

ANd true, SSI is just another Indicator, just as much like any other ones out there like FIB, MA, MACD or combo of sort. Indicators are LAGGING - I use it in combo with others as confirmation.

Added another short @ 1.02 after the break of that stubborn 1.023 area. Now averaged 2 lots @ 1.0225.
Repeated mistakes I make is "not protecting profit". So I moved SL to 1.0210. Im looking for a 1.0170~ 1.0160 TP (a little above daily low)

very volatile market. need to protect my shorts.
