I take it by the initial reaction that minutes were rather dovish.

Yeah, I'll probably try some longs at 118.80/90 if we get there today and see if they stick. GJ looks good. Even EJ. Maybe from a bit lower than it is now. That thing is 1500 pips off it's high from December. Have to figure euro is due for a dead cat bounce if nothing else. The Greece crap always seems to end the same way. Kick the can down the road and forget about it until next year.
Had a couple of limit orders hit, now what?

Whats wrong with discussing Yen all over the place? . Dunno with that E/J. Am now a bit confused , these CB rolls always mess up with my portfolio. USD longs got hit heavy, lucky GBP fine. But Eur also not behaves as it should. All charts a bit messy, I need to count. Cya later,

Am focusing the same like you, beeing dip on FOMC. Could be fast and I believe 118,54 monthly holds +- few - 118,3 would be perf low for me before testing new highs.
Ok, so 118,54 hit and I am starting to load.

Hopefully this 118.50 is the end of it. I prefer my lower order not get hit.

UJ has dropped from 119.80 to 118.42 yesterday after a disappointing Fed minutes, I think for now, it looks we are going to be in for a 118/119 type range.

No, more like euro bulls are gearing up, which is causing other pairs to fall. Compare usd/jpy with eur/usd. It'll save you a lot of time on analysis for right now.

Please dont, my Aud short just swimmed above water after a week . Nice call though. I have bailed out of Nzd, due to RBA cut rates. But for the very same reason I have loaded shorts on Aud. So far not working, but I am waiting .

Edit: Bikov! You are killing my shorts!

I made 3 buys these days: 2 aussie and 1 kiwi, today's aussie failed, other ones ended with profit. Looking at the reaction of AUD after the rate cut it can be said that aussie took the bullet without very damage, so it's a sign of a strength for me. And where's the Yen here (its' UJ thread after all) ? Well, Yen is an anti dollar asset.. or to put it simple: AUD up, USD down and when $ falls it cannot be good for UJ. Speaking of UJ only, it has difficulties to reach 120 and if the bulls doesn't take this seriously, I guess 110 would be the punishment for them. What cannot go up..
