Are you sure? I see 1.0500 next.

62% retracement on short term hourly chart = 10527 area. Who knows if it'll make it there but its a reasonable target for a day trade with tight stop.

Never traded them before, always been a futures trader. Spot options mean right now (spot). Can I go one year out in the future with forex spot options ? I can with futures options if I so wish.
Or, you can try currency ETF.

I believe they are good instruments to trade.

I look at H1 ADX and EWP. It's unlikely going to 1.0527 at this point.

Yes you can. It's called LEAP. Correct me if I am wrong.
I don't know. I never researched forex options. I like futures because my total commissions are $12.50 per side for a maximum cost of $25.00 even if I hold it for a full year or more. No other BS fees and crap like that, it'll never cost me more than $25.00. Period.

Forex screws you with other costs you don't have to worry about with futures positions of any kind, options or straight up long or short the market. A full blown futures market position is only $6.00, much cheaper than forex spread commissions.

The downside risk is much higher than the up side now. The probability of the bottom drops off cannot be ruled out either.

Yes but the liquidity makes a big difference.

I'm sure its all OK DB, but I have a futures account (for long term) and a forex account (for very short term trades) Thats good enough for me.

Currency futures have real good liquidity. Options too. I never have a problem getting limit orders filled.

It was my opinion only. Not asking you to change anything. I would trade currency ETF in the near future.

If it gives you holding power without costing you much, then it too is good DB. Let er rip. lol

Not arguing at all. If it works for you then its all a good thing.

For those who like to gamble or bet on the Forex markets,, there is a better place for them. It is called Binary Options.

I have reviewed some of those websites of Binary Options. Seems to me such options are more like gambling than trading. The odds is not in favor of the participants [not traders IMO].

"China's recovery from its longest slowdown in growth since the global financial crisis is being driven by the two forces posing the biggest risks to the economy's increasingly urgent need to rebalance - investment and property." -CNBC-

As such, China's rebound may just like a flower. Cannot last long.

"More and more Chinese say they distrust the Wizard-of-Oz-style of control the Communist Party has exercised since it seized power in 1949, and they are asking their leaders to disseminate enough information so they can judge whether officials, who are widely believed to be corrupt, are doing their jobs properly. Without open information and discussion, they say, citizens cannot tell whether officials are delivering on basic needs." -CNBC-

This has been the fundamental problem of China since 1949. When people get richer, they want more in the freedom of speeches and expressions. Can CCP turns this tsunami back or is it going to be destroyed for good?

Why I share this view? The Aussie's future depends on China's stability. Once the unrest erupts all over the country, The parity won't be the end of the story.
