Love those Aussie emp. numbers - so volatile! I pre-empted what looked like a standard 1-2-3 reversal and bought at 1.0060 with a stop at 1.0040. I think now that pattern looks text book right now on the AUD/USD. No one won the office pool for the number we were all so far out (15 of us!)

if china trade balance comes out positive what will the effect be on aud/usd?
A higher than expected reading should be taken as positive/bullish for the CNY, while a lower than expected reading should be taken as negative/bearish for the CNY.

Just FYI, on the unemployment numbers, the FULL TIME jobs were actually -10k+, it was the part time jobs that made up the difference.

(-10.5K full +26K part), so Net would really be barely positive, or a wash.

Again, it's the same thing as saying I win 90% of my trades, but don't mention when I lose 10% I lose 10 times what I make on the 90%.

Again, misleading....don't trust it. I am shorting at 1.01 and 1.015

If the numbers beat the forecast the AUD should continue to push higher.

The market is showing differently then your opinion. Careful getting caught at these levels.

It will definitely goes north if CNY data release as positive. There should be more good news coming out to boost the market since the whole week is in the negative outlook.

Traders do not read too deeply into the numbers, could keep going on China or reverse after they think about and have taken all the dumb money.
Trade what you see not what you think.
BTW I lose a lot more than 10% of the time and could not brag about wins. Even my recent streak is meaningless in this game.

I'll start unloading for a loss at 1.02, between now and then is an expected bounce.

I like it. You have a plan and level to get out.

Getting stuck....yeah...most likely i'll be out by tomorrow either way though.

We just missed the triple rollover though....so i won't lose much for holding in comparison..and we have a full 20 hours to go until the rollover fee again!

18.4

84% more than expected

Might be a dump and pump or some underlying weakness
