AUD is a good carrytrading currency with high interest rates so many people invest in Australian things and need to buy AUD first to do so.
At least I guess that's one of the strongest reasons.

dropped like NP! and up??
Tough data to trade:
Headline CPI was below expectation thus the selloff.
A second later, Core (excluding food) came out higher thus the rally.
Since food is seasonal, it is not a major factor when deciding for Interest Rates. Therefore, a probability of rate cut this next meeting is diminished.

Can we see 1.0560 again?

fxrocket, you are getting too heated on your trade. you might wanna stand aside for a while to cool off.

fxcm spread >20 pips!!!

Just stay long if your in, If been long since noon, it just blasted through both my positions and now I'm up 75 net pips. on FXCM.

LOOK AT THE TRIMMED MEAN CPI

this is the release that gave the boost. The anticipation of the first was correct,
yet the trimmed mean cpi which excludes the most volatile 30 "goods" was 1% higher.

I am staying bullish aussie in target of breaching 1.06
and would like to see an ultimate re-test of 1.1

A bit of confusion out there ??

What do you expect when they print two sets of numbers - IDIOTS !!

Some are suggesting this CPI number will lessen the chance of rate cuts..
BOLLOCKS !!
Rate cuts depend on Euroland and the impact of job losses here, wages will be restrained.

However the AUD will remained supported with the attractiveness of its yield.

My main concern is Europe.
Having listened to the crap the PM spins in this country Im use to the BS of whats coming out of Europe.

Greece will be in ruins.... again !!

Fact is no one can predict our RBA rate decision and we have 2 week for rate decision, it good to take to hill and push it from top, it will give good return to big fish, as tiny fish it's better for us to follow big fish than going inside it's mouth

RBA mandated to control inflation not unemployment

Don't forget about the impact of CNY news on the AUD either.

A week or so ago we got a great boost in Aussie from a slew of positive CNY data releases. The euro I think takes a second seat here in relationship and effect.

I wanna go long, but I guess, its too late for me.

If I wait for a retrace, hell, it might not be a retrace anymore but a selloff.
If I go in right now @ 1.0530, it might be the top already.

DAMN!

Depending on Obama reaction, I think it could stay bullish and hit 4hr trendline at 1.061 and Daily trendline at 1.071. Just waiting for the next dip to go long.

Hi Everyone, been watching for awhile thought I would make my first post.

Do we think its too late to go long now?
Is it time to wait for the reversal and go short?

I dont know how long this post takes to get on the forum as I am a junior member and their could be long delays from forum mods but I'm here to stay and have some input.

Looking forward to sharing info in forex trading.
