Besides those CAD data mentioned above ... 4-5hrs from now US Data will be released projected by consensus to be favouring USD.

U sum it up ... make a wise decision on the actual direction ... but it's better to focus only to your chart and technical indis.

Dear VennD,
you've mentioned if CAD data are increase than SELL the CAD.
( and it did...the Data of CAD were better/increase)
and u've wrote also :
Oil prices currently went up , atm ... @ $92.75/b , that indicates usd/cad down , unless otherwise.

but atm...why the CAD Spike UP?
with incredible Up Up Away !!!
hix hix my BL @ 0.9950 didn't touch !

Before I go to my day job...lol. Please dont take my post as critical. As fellow traders I love your input to make me better as well as I hope you do the same. But keep in mind I am mostly deep term trader so I accept these pullbacks as signposts along the way. For instance, what may be a reversal on the smaller charts for another, may simply be a minor correction for me. My smallest chart is the 1 hr but the Dailys I trade by. I am new to the forum and still havent learned how to post a chart, but I will figure it out soon.

My positions are. Active: Short to 9800 on U/CAD
Long to 1.06500 on A/U

Pending positions are : Short to 1.3670 at 1.0450 on E/U stop 1.4162
: Short to 118.00 at 123.25 on G/J stop 125.05


By the way, when I get halfway I pull 1/2 off and move stop to B/E

Fundies or whatever out there are make-ups , though they are the prime movers. The truth are in the candlesticks and formations.

U know ... There're somethings out there that we didn't know, for example ...

Sovereign Central Banks masking their identity to sell/buy through Bank of Settlement (BIS) in huge volume. Hedge funds , fixings and many more other things.. As u go along in fx trading , u'll pickup the understandings..

That's all I can tell u as of now. Will tell u further in due course.

Did I tell u abt... there are ppl guarding 1.0000 just now ? They're like gamblers but not quite. If that 1.0000 blown , somebody has to pay my nannies. In millions , of course. Sweet eh ?

LONG


Entry: 1.0055
TP: 1.0196

Trade completed.


(no stop loss had been implemented)


Bearing in mind, though, that someone who uses tight stops would have been stopped out before the upwards surge took place.

Last night CAD data was good but .... strong buy orders resulting in usd/cad ignited its rocket to the north. Technically, looking at the daily , I think some more up retracement need to be done.

and as usual ... don't forget that sell orders / mixed stops that I have mentioned some where abv 1.0370/400 , mixed stops abv 1.0400 (last week ... probably still up there) . I think so.

For usd/cad , the more it goes higher ... the more it attract sellers while in aud/usd ... the more it goes deeper ... the more it attract buyers.

As of now .... I think the ratio for usd/cad is more sellers than buyers. Its natural ... some bears got slaughtered by mr.market ... after that ... bulls turn to be slaughtered.
