Technically, the AUD has a much better chance of reaching the 1.04's than the 1.08's. All the trendlines have been broken from the Daily thru H1 charts, the H4 and H1 charts now have established downtrends developing and 1.0770 area has failed 4 times to break and hold above. Fundamentally, anything can happen, but looks like a very tough road to the north in the short term. I have been selling touches to the trendline going down to 1.0450 area.

you may have seen a short term bottom at 0610 could go either way but if you want long id do it here with a stop under 0610.
A lot of sideways action after a period of down trend, with the down trend breaking...
on the other hands bears might roll in once they realize bulls can't get pass 0650

(from a guy who has big shorts @ 1.08 for over a week.)

i agree however we haven't seen a clear break of 0650 and 0650 a important number that's been support for the past 2 weeks. Making me nervous i don't want any range bound crap like we saw last week. I also see 0600 being bought quickly on dips twice now.

Maybe its just me and it takes time to grind down these bulls.

I will be interesting. Either the trendline or 1.06 is going to give way here very shortly. If the trendline gives way, then I am going to exit the shorts and look for the long entry, probably off the backside of the broken trendline on a re-test.

Not understanding why the US dollar is so much stronger than the A$. Or is it that the A$ is just drinking a VAT of wimp juice right now? I thought the AUD moved with Gold and DOW Jones Industrial Avg. I need my pips man!!!!!

It is hard to get up bright and early in the morning and ride the bulls, when you have been out partying with the crows, 3 nights in a row. http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

I doubt that politics play a major part, it's probably just the aud is perceived as being too high at 1.08, and anyways it's definitely not healthy to have an overwhelming currency as it will sap your exports.

Yet, I still can't help but feel with the USD having zero interest for 3 years and QE 3 coming cant beat slowing China (though PMI did recover a little) and Europe.

If anyone out there uses pivots....I find the daily pivot point calculation done at 5 est has great predictive value for what lies ahead in the coming day.
The aud has closed below its daily pivot for over a week every day. And every day it bounces back up to the pivot before heading back down. I'm short at today's pivot of 1.064 taking profit at an even 1.06 for the short term until I see what the next day brings.
Anyone else use this technique? Works pretty good on cable too.

Clearly, this wimp juice is potent stuff. Anyway, what's up with EUR/AUD? Surely the Gillard/Rudd political head-butting can't be that scary to make the AUD drop against the wimpy Euro. China can't be doing that badly.

Thanks RustyRam, Setting my pending long at 1.047. Don't you just love these down trends?...A new buying oportunity every day! http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
Be cautious at 1.0470, the bounce will be wave 4 of the down move, it might not get above .10620, . then it will head back to 1.0400 level.

The down move will be completed, only when the price reaches 1.0400

That is a good place to for a long.

where do you think is a good place to short today? 1.068 or 1.07?
