Wow it's very lethargic.. Looking at the H4 we are still just above the EMA of the Bollinger Band. Combine that with the fact that 7800 is holding we may see 7880 tonight in NY session?

Wait for London session before deciding as usual. 7820 maintains as short term resistance and has been pretty strong at it this week, look to it rejecting or breaking to offer signs of ranging or breakout. Personally I'm shorting at 7820 for a bigger risk reward ratio.
Luck shines on the positive.

I actually try not to trade on Fridays but sometimes it's the time to make the most pips for the week!

Yes!
I just don't roll trades over the weekend usually.

Edit: AUD has been strong against all other majors, might be looking at some exhaustion up against stronger currencies.
Edit: And we have our 7820 mark, lets see how it goes on from here. There is also a descending trendline top near this area.

Do we have a rejection? Stops have been triggered.

Edit: No short term fundamental impacts till near NY open when volatility floods in again. Seems like range top is holding as well, hence continuation of consolidation in range between 7840 to 7740. Scalpers might want to get in for a tight short here.

And aussie continues to flirt with upper levels and being strongest amongst most majors, makes me wonder whats making it so strong.
We've got metals falling and possible S&P downgrade.

Hi, am not sure theory is valid, but I have though of this :

{quote} Yy, agreed. But the thing is, I went short right after RBA cut, while at the same time ofc buying UJ. Was scubadiving for about a week now and few shorts got cut in loss, now @ BE. Was thinking why AUD reacted this way and think I have a solution . In Australia, there is not so strong stock market like in US or EU. When Europe or US cuts, is a massive buy on stocks immediatelly and currencies move in neg correlation. Afterwards, foreign investors start to buy those cheap currencies so they can invest too, so currency corrects. But in Australia,...

Agree and, diminshed expectations for mid summer US rate hike also promts Aussie to bounce somewhat, imo

News feeds have reported a few hours back that there is a large (1.5 b) option barrier between 0.7840 - 0.7850.

This might be the reason for the current PA

I'm alittle noob with regards to option barriers. Would you mind elaborating on what it means?

it's strong until everyone is long, then look out below

you just wait and see, as soon as everyone is really believing long, what happens

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

Lol, I'd like that. Anyway as long as BoA continues to ease, there's no real reason to believe there will be any substantial upside on this pair.
