looks overheated. but we know short covering can take it higher than its real value, but 1.04 looks a bit rich for AUD.

If in doubt with not enough confidence then I rather stay out all together.
Moved my EUR/AUD TP to 1.2180, pretty confident to get there this week

always be willing to lose and don't over leverage or take too much risk

i had a long of AU at 1.033 and covered at 1.035, yea sure I was bitter that I didn't hold long enough for more but hey, at least I'm already up 12% for the week

what's worse? i had a long of EU at 1.2628 yesterday and I covered for 40pips when by today morning, I would have had captured 100 pips

just set a SL in case things go wrong and wait for the alarm that your trade has taken profit

If your target is 40 pips and price hits it just to continue for another 100, I don't think you should complain. Even BE is a winning trade.

good job.....

i just missed the long entry, waiting for a pullback....or enter short at 1.0450 area....i am looking at that number...
Thank you rustyram, but I reckon I am not the only one getting pips here The hard bit when youre in a winning trade is to give it enough "breathing space"...

$AUDUSD: Breaks just over 200-Day SMA, with daily ATR exceeded and hourly RSI highly overbought. Selling here could prove very profitable.

$250 binary to expire below 1.0426 @ top of this hours looks promising so far.

same goes to fx360, their risk/reward is horrible too and they always put their SL at obvious spots

no wonder no one trades with GFT

is anyone still live with a eur/aud short?

i have been very hesitant to open new shorts on this pair. it feels so oversold.
