Quoting bogus
I think AU is setting up for a break higher.
Falling back below .9070 levels, we will be back into bears territory heading down. Lets see if the level holds.
The true fact is market doesn't care, risk mgt is important.

its testing the .90710 level for the second time on the 15min chart, if it closes above that level I'm adding to my long.
Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing.

For us deciphering clues in today's RBA minutes, here's a bank report from Commonwealth on it:
Commonwealth – RBA Board Minutes: March 2013

  1. The RBA March Board Minutes reiterated the Bank’s neutral policy bias. The RBA is more comfortable with the growth outlook than it was last year, with indicators, “generally positive for consumption, housing investment, business conditions and exports”.
  2. The RBA’s reading of non-mining capex plans for 2014-15 was a little stronger than the interpretation that most commentators applied.
  3. The RBA’s “period of stability” in policy settings should extend through to late 2014 when we expect a modest tightening cycle to begin.

From Bloomberg: RBA Saw More Signs Low Interest Rates Helping Spur Economy

I am still not seeing any strong signals to enter a position on this pair.

M15 current price is still in the cloud, with kijun sitting at the 0.90900 mark so we may get back to that level.
M30 also supports the above scenario
H1 we could be forming a TK cross to the bearish, however above the clouds so will be weak bear, still a way away from forming the cross.
H4 and Daily charts are showing weak signals to a bearish preference.

If I were to enter a trade here it could be a bull at the 0.907xx level as low as I could get it, but I would not hold the trade looking for a small TP maybe at the 0.90857. However as said, signals are not there for me to enter the pair at the moment.

Just my two cents.

{quote} To add from yesterday; Westpac changed their forecast of a 25bps rate cut in 2014 to a forecast that the bank wont cut anymore this year.

Wrong , it was double that , 50bps in total .
They previously expected that rates would be reduced by 25bps in both August and November.

Oh, sorry. Thought it was -25bps in H1 2014. Thanks! Even bigger change in sentiment.

Hi whackdiddy I agreed with yr earlier post re au being inconclusive and range bound..... That said I've entered a small sh at 9075. TP at 9058, the 55 ema on the 1hr. We'll see how it travels.......

RBA minutes watch for possible move down to Daily pivot before continuation up
Daily pivot hit at last & maybe a little more to come. 0.9052 is the 50% retrace level.

Simptomatic of no-trends like AUDUSD is in recent days, weeks is that after breaking no-trend we usually get rather clear trends. Similar with EURJPY, GBPUSD and some others. Stay sidelines – the best one can do right now until new trend emerges. Unless you go for ultrashort trades that is.

This stop loss order is a trailing stop that will move up as the market moves...

Australian provocation made ​​up of large quantities of yesterday to 0.9108. So for me it is a signal to short-term reversal to the previous volume of the accumulation zone. I set aside an order to retest the large amounts of 0.9084 with a stop at 0.9110 and 0.9030 profit.
