where is your confirmation we are in a demand area? We closed right at the lows, there's no bullish engulfing, higher low, etc. We are now here for the third time as the bulls have done such a bad job at trying to push price up.

Bulls must be careful. Trade the chart and not what you think will happen.

As the AUDUSD fails to maintain the range-bound price action from April, we should see former support around 1.0200 act as new resistance, and we may see the pair threaten the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement from the 2010 low to the 2011 high around 0.9930-50 as it searches for a floor. However, I will be keeping a close eye on the relative strength index as it approaches oversold territory, but a break below 30 should send the pair even lower as market participants turn increasingly bearish against the Australian dollar.

There is scant good news except for jobs, i am still bearish. At least until parity before a retracement.

All in your crystal ball?
And why 1.2860 if I may ask?
No crystal ball Whale....just managing risk/reward and probabilities, as I seem to recall seeing this movie a few times before.

Why 1.2860 area?? Primarily the 23% Fib Level from July '08 Highs to June '10 Lows. Look at your daily and weekly candles and you will see it has been respected repeatedly. Add to that a few other respected trendlines and channels that I have tracked over the long term. They all converge in the same general area of 1.2860-1.2870 area. A confluence of several credible support/resistance levels is reason enough for me to respect the area as well. I'll take profits around there and look for a bounce to short again at a higher level as I believe EU will now trade in a range from 1.30-1.25/1.26 area.

My open positions over the weekend are:
Short AU from 1.0063, no SL and .9960 target. SL will go to 1.0050 after we open on Sunday.
Short EU from 1.2945, no SL and 1.2865 target. SL will go to 1.2920 after we open.

Rationale for no SL....in the event we happen to gap up, I don't want to get stopped out as I would expect us to fade that gap after opening. A gap down however would trigger Stops and drive more selling pressure where I would look to book profits before we close the gap.

Which is probably the reason why there are no Jedi-traders.


On a more personal note, I suspect a theory of reflexivity may come into play here. *CoughGeorgeSorosWannabeCough*

I think based on medium term there is some reasonable possibility of a bounch to 1.02 ish area..

Alot of resist at 9980ish might be enough to cause the bounce.

I think there will be alot of people going long around here.

I am looking to tp at 9980 watch for a little then maybe long around 9950 just 1 unit with a sk at 9850 tp goal 1.0150

Fridays bounce took out the resist that was handing in at 1.0060 So the support becomes resist at 1.0020 will be pretty much the only resist all the way to 1.01ish (apart from the small resist that formed around the 1.0080 friday)
