Any chance of touching 1.0805? I am running a simple MA crossover EA, I might have the wrong settings. I have it set to open long orders when MA1 crosses MA2, and I have my periods set as follows, MA1=1, MA2=3, and I am triggered at the OPEN of a new candle. I currently have my MT4 on the 15 minute screen. T/P is 20 pips. I'm using the "out of the box" EA that comes with the platform, I don't know the programming language. I would like to know how to tell this EA to do the MA cross read and only open orders when RSI crosses above 50, but I don't know how to include the RSI part in the EA.

I am long the AUD/USD, DOW up, OIL up, Gold UP, but so is DXY....yet I am confused as to why AUD/USD went down. All I can think of is the fact that DXY is up, but most of the DXY is weighted against the EUR not the AUD. Could it be because also, since Greece got the bailout money, banks are running to the US Dollar for "safety", thus putting strength on the downside pull of the AUD/USD?
Generally speaking, the commodity currencies...ie. AUD, NZD, CAD top out or bottom days to weeks in advance of the S&P. These have been stagnant somewhat for the past several days while the S&P kept grinding higher. With today's action, it seems that the markets are following suite of the said currencies. Uh...again... "it seems".

But is the AUD weak or is someone buying USD..I see DXY is at 79. I need a bull run up to 1.0804, any chance of this by the end of the week?

Hmmm, I smell a flat, currently finishing possible wave-a (up)... New guess:

1. now down to 690-700 (wave-b)
2. there up to 800+ (wave-c)
3. down back to 600-630 (end of wave-4)
4. 900+ (wave-5)
5. down to HELL
1 in
2 in
3 in ?

Use me as a contrarian indicator

AUD/USD @1.0666

Finally the market is wising up about the wooden horse of BS.
They are going to default and I wish the politicians would stop the spin and trying to save their jobs.

1.0620 is the key support to get any momentum on the south side as I suspect flood gates below.

On the topside name your number. Its stalled and rally should be spanked.

On the AUD/Crosses
Watch for a break out on EUR/AUD 1.2420-30 level for a spike towards 1.2500
GBP/AUD 1.4825 a key resistance for 1.4900 target.

Happy punting..

you still have a chance last week the market range bound between 1.065 and 1.08 the whole week, either side able to break through. 'however this week you had RBA announcement and euro greece agreement so some fundie changes to the market...
Normally when price touches support it will bounce as buy orders are triggered and bulls rush in, this instance price is lingering around support more chance of a break through wait and see what happens during asian session.

>3) >>> AUD/Usd <<< Weekly view - 4 Hours Chart (21-25th of February):


Aussie is strongly correlated with Gold (Because Australia is one of the Biggest Exporters of Gold - the Third Wrold Wide). On the 4 Hours Chart Aussie is trending in an Uptrend Channel. But on Monday price has broken out of the Channel Downside. This could be a signal for a Trend Reversal or a False Break-out.Price has currently found support at 1.067(Weekly S1 Pivot)

Bearish Probability could first retrace back to 1.074(strong key-level confluence between Uptrend Line , Weekly Main PIvot Line and 30,50 and 100SMa cross) and then break 1.067(Weekly S1 Pivot) to reach 1.056(strong Key-Level that holds the Uptrend on the 4 HOurs Charts, confluece between 200SMa, and Weekly S2 Pivot). From here price could enter a congestion area between 1.056 and 1.074.

Bullish Probability could turn back above the Main Uptrend Line and 1.074 Key-Level (confluence between Uptrend Line , Weekly Main PIvot Line and 30,50 and 100SMa cross) to reach first 1.086( Weekly R1 Pivot). From this level price could retrace back to the trendline before reach the 1.093Resistence (weekly R2 Pivot).

Ah yes, the politicians......let's break it down..the word..politic

poli... Greek (ahem) or Latin for MANY.
tics... blood-sucking parasites.

Thus... politics = MANY BLOOD-SUCKING PARASITES.

Nuff Said.

Getting long as well.

Gap closed. Technically just by the PA we are right back at the H4 range bottom of last week - RSI low.

Seems like a good opp.

She has to make a second attempt at 1.08 now to test 1.10 IMO.

Edit: if I add a stop it will be below 0630 though - need to clear at least 0620

One could look at it as

1:4 R:R
Risk 50 Pips for target 200

Just remember Chinese PMI figures are out at 1.30pm (Australian time) which potentially can be market moving.
