Buying around the red line might be good if you are looking to short cad but this might happen next week. Im honestly not going to short any oil currency if things stay this way. Maybe try to catch the bounce back from $60 if we get there and dollar stays firm enough.

well it sucks to know I'd be up right now if I held on to my trade for a few more pips....... That's the worst. But I guess we win some and we lose some

Well those numbers are mixed in a bad way for cad shorts. I'm looking to get out of my cadjpy short before the hour is up :O
based on TA jpy is one of my favorites but have no idea on how this is doing fundamentally. If Fed skips rates once more then i will begin to consider jpy but against eur or chf in first place.

Well there seems to besome resistance at the 4H 50 ema so I'm keeping my cadjpy shorts .... come on baby pips

usd/nok try to tell something here. 5th wave extensions usually ends with a double top so maybe long for some baby pips. But shorts look better for a while. I am done going long on any usd pair this week and maybe next up to fed. If u have acces to eur/nok look at it looks big time.

and as the usd/nok buying stops it also have inderect effect on eur/nok as you can se already. So even if dollar goes up or down eur/nok might very well be heading south. That the dollar buying takes a break becames a plus in this situation.

I guess so but oil might be a factor? Norway drills oil from the North sea?

If norway is the canada of europe then I say go for it but the EUR is so weak. 10 cent decline against the dollar in the last two weeks. I mean I expect a bounce but not too dramatic. maybe to the daily 20 EMA and then you need to rethink your eurnok strategy

dont know i must be the only one observing the fact that news did fake all traders shorting eur/majors. Where oil currencies should be SO risky atm it seems cad did better than most and nok even gained against so heavy eur buying.

im begining to think that fed is willingly going to take a hit on dollars run by being negative about the rate. They will do anything to give stocks more value and time

it was a sloppy trade ... I mean I used my thumb and fingers for goodness sake. But seems to be working now. Im in at 84 and 60 and looking for huge pips now since I was on the verge of having a heart attack for the last 2 hours. I think it owes my around a nickel for taking a couple years off my life span

really? if they do that they are admitting that the financial recovery so far is a farce. There is no way. It seems to be all about wage and god forbid the rich let it trickle down to the hourly workers who spend the most by %.

Don't cut, it's going to 1.28 with bad report and lower oil price
It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.
