I'm learning towards xtyrant's statement earlier that the gap would definitely close. I have relatively large positions well above 0.93 that I plan to let run.

I've been short from .9377 and my TP is .9253 (targeting the gap close).

Although I have some short positions I opened earlier which I hope to cover as the market retraces now.

The funny thing is the PA indicated the direction was down last weak. I have learned two things.... gaps nor squeezes change sentiment or direction without underlying fundamentals changing.

Further evidence was the massive fade. Moves like these, for little to no reason, rarely have momentum to continue on.

I feel bad for those that "hedged" after that massive gap.
When the facts change I change my mind, what do you do sir

{quote} AUD/USD: TP for my short order is set @ 0.9192. 60 pips floating as we speak.

Some chaos and south she goes. AUD/USD position is now running with 90 pips of floating profit. Calling a day and leaving my desk with no changes to the order.

Will join the party tomorrow during NY. Take care all.

I am afraid it will go back up to 0.9350: (I am not sure)

http://www.rtfx.com/forex-analysis/t...09.2013/daily/

Should fall around 0.9285 while below 0.9318 - 0.9356 zone. Then a recovery up to above 0.9356 is expected.


If so, I will short from there again.
Simple is powerful all the time.

As you can see, if you look at it this way there's a broad 1hr channel and it appears to be going up...

China worse than expected data+rate cuts possibility. PA is on a waiting game but big picture is defined.

Yes.. but RBA rate cut still open.. Still has possibility for further rate cut.. Slightly dovish.. but statement is neutral

yeah you're right but "not imminent" may also open some chance to short-term PA games

Good morning all, chanced a small long prior to news, looking to test overnight top. I'll be wary of another attempt down to below 9300 and always expect the unexpected cheers & green pips to all {image}

Played a quick rescue and closed just above break even which is always better than a loss
Looking for next op
cheers

I agree 110% with you again. In fact when I saw the last hrly candle on aud/usd retrace 1/3 of its loss, after a huge drop, i always figure the game players closed shop and went to party on the few "mil" they just stople, and I go long after the last 60m candle reverses 1/3 or more. So for an avg of 12-16 or 20 pips risk I get to put on another lot that the original bullish trend will continue. I can lose 85% of these asnd still do mighty well.

Warning: Do not attempt these kinds of trades while having sex, driving a vehicle or talking on a cell phone. ROFLMAO!

I took a short at the re-test of the breakdown area.
Looking to profit near the recent lows as marked, if PA continues down for now???
Stop break even at this point.
