Hi TheSwede,

I have read this post and will give you a longer answer later this week.
Before I trade USD and JPY for my longterm trades we need to have some
clear solution in Europe.
But I already test some pairs like Audjpy and UsdJpy. ( I know U/J is a weird choice but get pips from it )


One of my long runner is GBPAUD. - Short - Maybe you see why I trade this one for my longterm trade ?

Enjoy !

I share you thoughts. Are you in yet? For me it seems a little premature. The question is when the focus will shift to these currencies. After the summer? After US elections?

I'll be looking into the following pairs CAD/JPY, USD/CAD, GBP/JPY,
GBP/USD, AUD/JPY and AUD/USD.

Discarding the EUR/USD so far unless we get a push down to 1.17 and CHF because of the SNB rate policy.

At a glance I like CAD/JPY which seems to be in consolidation mode.

Will post weekly, monthly charts with my analysis in a couple of days.

Any other Ideas?

Clear solution in Europe seems good, but I think it will take some time. What would you consider a clear solution? To me it could be one or more of the following
- Eurobonds (not likely)
- Clear strategy on how to recapitalize banks, lower debt or increase growth
- Greece and Spain solved (think that Italy, Spain and Ireland will manage)
- The countries start to follow the budget rules (including Germany)

Hi,

As you know I'm a trend follower and I act on what market/charts show me.

Clear solution for me is when we know how Europe handle the different troubles they have.

Example:
- Spain have bank troubles but europe explain how they handle it. ( Correct or not correct solution is not the question )

Market do not like uncertainty.

Japan can not keep strong Yen to long.... Btw JPY already moved lots of pips since my USD/JPY post ( http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...66#post5735066 )

TheSwede remember keep your trading simple.
To find trends you do not need any Holy grail tools.

Glad Midsommar !

Hi,

In my last post I told you "KISS" is what your system need to be.

I found a triangle formation in GbpAud and just read what tell me and trade it.
You see market bounce on one line from the triangle formation.

Simple and clear solution for me. Do you agree ?

Do you think that this nights deal is enough to calm the markets?

Hi,

I will let the market digest this decisions, before I decide it we have some calm periods on the markets.

Btw
My short GbpAud from 1.6055 really likes this deal

As I said some weeks ago. I do not search for weaker euro anymore but JPY & USD weakness.

If anyone have questions post them here please and I will try to answer it.

Have a nice Weekend.

Hi,

Most traders talk about the Euro now. People knowing me for some period know that I said. "Euro will fall". Now we have a crisis in Europe.
Euro is now a hurted currency and like a hunted animal moves like a mad. ( With no real control )

I will now hunt other currencies.

I move my focus to JPY and USD now.
My trades that I will hold for month/years will come from pairs with those currencies.

Enjoy Life !


To be clear.
I do not think JPY will get to much stronger and USD have big troubles ahead !!
So I...

Hi,

I talked about trading Yen and Usd weakness last month. info . http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...66#post5735066
( not to bad for me and other people following me )
I will now focus on trading Euro weakness ( note I do not say short Euro today )

I will focus on 2 pairs ( Eur/Aud and Eur/Cad ) Other euro pairs will join the show 2

Hi Sey!

Looks like the AUD has taken a real beating the last days. I guess you are just waiting for the right moment. What kind of pattern are you waiting for here (EUR/AUD)?

Hi,

Well E/au had some troubles based on market waiting for ECB today and Aud was not perfect spot.
Euro get some push today-

Eu/Au will be good in the long run if market push euro down. Like my UJ and AJ ... from last year that still sleep in my books.

Remember I'm a trend follower so try to catch the ride and ride.....

Hi,
I read Seykota's comments on EURO and have also taken his suggestion and start to short EU and EU/AUD....
As much as trading is about taking the trade and sticking to it...The most important part is to no the direction. I follow Seykota for a while
and like his direction (ideas) so i post a chart to show that he is not the only one that catch his trades and everyone else just watches
and says "good job, you were right" but actually catch the trade for themselves.
