I am confused!

I am current,y using FXCM MT4 for charts. And accordingly, the 200DAILY SMA is 1.0360... yet i am getting folks saying it is 1.0410!

WTF I AM SCREWED ON MY CHARTS.

Sans bad news, I will go long if this pair is above 1.0380 by day close. coz 1.0380 is big time resistance... i wished 200SMA Is 1.0360. that will surely complement the 1.0380 resistance

Looks like the past resistance, will provide excellent support and down move from 1.450 to 1.380 is not impressive, so looks like there is still room for upside...

Going long at 1.0390 with 20 Pip SL, after some up move, will move the SL to BE

Target 1.0500/.0550

i dont know how to post my chart can any one tell me what to do?

but i think that aussi is going down, because if you look at the triangle formation on the daily TF, the high of today 1.0420 is very well in line with the upperbound for the triangle, and as PA will be raning in between the two lines i predict the price to drop to around 1.0000. In about 1-2 weeks though. I i know that it broke strong resistance and 1.0380 and it may now turn into support but we cant see it yet we need to wait for the daily close and also the next daily close to confirm, along with a reversal sign on smaller TF's. Even if it is resistance, we can still break through however which is what i think will happen.

Any one else agree?

I totally agree, but i think it will retest 450 or even 490 before an ugly drop... that will flush all stop away, given a close above 380

It looks unlikely NY will close above 0380.

this could be a short.. once it consolidates this evening, it will be more evident. however, i was badly humbled by this pair too many times recently and i chose not to risk a fade at 0450 despite an attractive top. a break below 0310/20 tomorrow would lead to a retest of 0140 from early january. rejection from 0140 looks like it would make this into an ascending wedge of some kind

eur/aud regained most of todays post climb dip (lol) and looks like it may rebound further given the rejection of aud/usd at 0450. any guru thoughts from others are very welcomed.

good trading to all.

Aud didnt like the giddy heights around 1.0450 and retreated sharply from trendline resistance and with the hourlies pointing lower we may see a bit of near term weakness before the Aud has another attempt at higher ground. The 200DMA at 1.0410 will provide nearer term resistance .
Cant get enthusiatic about buying the Aud up here though and in line with the S&P struggling at levels above 1300 before what maybe a push lower,I suspect that the Aud is going to have a test of 1.0270 in the near future. Overall though we remain within the range and more choppy trade is most likely.

AUD/USD @ 1.0377

AUD ran into some resistance around 1.0435-50 zone.
TBH I thought that was going to be eclipsed come this morning.
We have tested both sides of the outer range in a matter of 48 hours so back to square one.
Range 1.0330 - 1.0430 with no strong feel.

EUR/AUD @ 1.2270

No real test of 1.2200 as yet as 1.2300 caps -

GBP/AUD @ 1.4765

I thought we might slice through 1.4700 but many respecting the historical low support.
Just waiting for confirmation rather than pulling the trigger too early.

Good luck

I placed a Hail Mary @ 1.0360 - yeah almost 100 pips from the peak and it got filled.

Why 1.0360?

So far, its been the top/resistance since Dec. So I figured, what the hell. could be the support already after the breakthrough.

Even with debt woes coming out of Europe, money has to go (invest) somewhere else and thus into equities preferably US Equities spelling bullish SPX. AUDUSD is highly correlated to SPX.

U got it, I've been pissed at AU for not giving me a chance to go long stupid this has been going up either on China data or on S&P, when one is bad, the other is good and its been going up in a straight line pretty much. I'm not sure what it will take to get this thing down but when it does look out, I just don't see it yet. Might take a rounded top on the daily to finally do it.
