I am thinking short too, as the price bounce from today's low 1.0253 till now has been slow and looks like it is going to retest today's high at 1.0300
and possibly go lower afterwards...to your target...

Since you moved your SL , what if it stops you out, would you reenter again ?

Finally it tested the gap, looks like it is failing, i have entered short at 1.0320 with really tight stop, i will later move that to BE.

target 1.0220 or even lower.

There's no volume b/c it is a US bank holiday.

London pushed both Aussie and Kiwi to the extent - if you were long - by noon.

Orders closed. new orders - long - filled.

Let's break 0350 and have a big party!!!!!

Longs closed at high noon.

Bought dip.

Target one 0400

edit: i will trade this pair with 150 pip + stop on positions.

On short terms I put my stop just below the last fractal, so if direction changes I am out with a 30 pip loss rather than 100.

When trending, the pair is unlikely to move more than 160 and not recover all or most of the loss.

I'm short against the current daily high. I expect dollar strength to return
and a revist of the lows.

Never know - she failed on the two highs today on H1. I attribute this to the US banks being closed.

THus,

You may eat my stop or vice versa

And why is it that the dollar should be strong?
