Testing a critical point of convergence - 4hr 100ma also now at 7619.
I really wonder whether this support will hold, given that its already come 100pips down today.
If FOMC minutes ring a dovish tone, AUD may easily shoot back above 7660.
If hawkish, 4hr 200ma should be the next key support 7576, followed by 7570. But again as has been the recent behavior of the markets, gonna be ultra cautious of it reversing completely after that.

Too much talk of a bearish AUD got me blind sighted. after the initial spike to 7680, i chose the pain trade to sell in. lost instead 20 pips. was thinking that the huge increase in part-time employment will suggest a rethink in whether or not it's really a good report...and looking for a fade in the second move. oh how wrong i was.
AUD is now firmly back in the bullish trend. looking at it technically, the rejection from the downside was much much sharper than the rejection from the upside.

I made almost the same mistake, I lost 22 pips in 4 entries.

I made this stupid mistake even when I was listening to the radio that numbers were too much better than expected.

I hated when I go against the market stupidly

I gotta stop doing that or I'll keep losing pips!!!

Yes, the books I've read and the people who's taught me, they've said the same to me, when you screw it up a few times in a row, take a break and think about it, and come back with a better strategy.

I'll do it of course

AUD has been an erratic bitch for about a week. Friday's close was below the 4HR uptrend then it seesawed up and down wildly below that, and has now poked back up into the bottom of the uptrend channel on employment numbers. I agree with ell3 that these numbers don't look so good on close inspection. with 45,000 full time jobs lost, compensated for by 71,00 part time jobs created. To me the positive reaction seems over done. A loss of 45,000 full time jobs is a big negative. I'm thinking that by the end of the day the price bar back up into the uptrend channel may just be a temporary spike. Just an attempt to regain the trend it was knocked out of. I've shorted at 71.01

This is going one way. UP. London open again.
Not sure why youd short here. i get it its in supply zone but so what? Its buy buy buy on every factor possible. Just waiting on better price and confirmations then boom. Should get a great trade soon 5:1 or more especially if you compound it. Good luck all.
