No matter what anyone says, Europe rules the roost. No one actually cares what is happening domestically in Australia when it comes to trading its currency, what matters is what the Euros are doing, and Draghi just killed the rally when he said that he is not going to extend the ECB's bond buying program. lol
Yay! Pips for everyone!

Nope.. decided to short, and closed for a quick scalp at 20 pips.

Draghi comment dragging risk currencies down:

Draghi just killed IMF lending proposal - "lending money to IMF to buy Euro bonds is not compatible with the treaty"

Draghi's bottom line: ECB just won't be buyer of last resort - until Europe govts get fiscal houses in order: the take from our

Draghi not ruling out eurozone breakup; instead he says 'in spite of everything it seems quite far fetched.' De rigeur for euro zone?

You've gotten your 50+ pips already.. should lock your profits before someone says something and HOPIUM becomes abundant again.

On this shore, here in the US, the market is totally depressed. They don't think the Euros will be able to say anything now to make up for his comments today. Here the whole rally was based on Draghi pulling out the Bazooka based on what the Euros will do tomorrow, now there is no Bazooka.

Today I traded primarily in my secondary pair, USDCHF as didn't know how market was going to react to the ECB rate announcement.

Was planning to follow the trend, but then saw the trend reversing and a fully engulfed bearish candle had formed (sign of reversal).

So, did the smart thing and rode the trend down.
