DislikedAU has been really bullish this month. but seems exhausted near 0.758 level which is what the buyers wanted to reach. It might go few more pips up and then again go back to 0.738 level. If anybody wants to risk considering au is over bought then sell at tops till it reaches 0.738 level. SL should be above 0.7620-7630Ignored

Disliked{quote} The aud has climbed 500pips in 10 trading days without much of a pullback. Experience tells me that it's inevitable some retracement will surely happen, and at 500 pips up it should possibly be due. It's not as if there's been a major fundamental change resulting in a total revaluation of the currency.Ignored
Disliked{quote} I think this move has been 70% due to a surge in equities globally (See Dow Jones index https://www.tradingview.com/x/1WQtoKJ2/), 10% commodities and 20% who the fuck knows. Once (I should say if) US equities flip, then we will see JPY pairs tank, including this one. Alternatively, the global recovery is in full swing and it's back to parity within the next 12 months.Ignored
