Currently taking a beating on the AUD shorts, but I'm going to suffer the drawdown as I am positive AUD is due for more falls. Will just need to watch the cash and get in better shorting prices above which looks like 8700ish.

The GBP shorts are going well, just under +800 in total which is hedging the AUD shorts.

I'm thinking of taking my profits on GBP shorts, with a view of a future reload. Seems like divergence is creeping in for a push higher.

Hey Tash, cheers buddy. I've not had the time to look at other pairs today - so thanks for the heads up on JPY. I was going to start looking at EUR longs myself but with caution..... not sure how I view it's polar opposite UJ. I may stand aside for the moment. Will need to manage my AUD shorts.

Currently riding -200 on AJ but I'll hedge that somehow. Still short biased. Perhaps with a EUR long. Strong vs Weak.

I will admit that I closed this out of impatience at the time I was wrapping up to go home. After a beautiful sausage and mash, I revisit the good old chart to find the move had begun. Dammit!!

Anyway, re-entered. 5x Short AUD @ 8507.2
At least it cleared 8527.8
