I'm like the euroland rumours. Politicians are going to do this and that about Greece etc... Perfect smile

Interesting... USDJPY breaking down currently...! No idea what is causing the latest Yen strength. I just noticed it was odd that the whole week it was stationary...
Meanwhile the dollar is getting hit across board. The volatility smile




And an interesting reminder too... http://www.youtube.com/w...ixs&feature=related

Short EUR/USD @1.3820, SL - 1.3920, TP - open. Lot size 0.3
Short AUD/USD @1.0310, SL - 1.0380, TP - open. Lot size 0.3

I am testing the weakness strength of AUD and EUR vs USD. If EUR/USD breaks below 1.37, I'll add larger lot sizes. AUD below 1.02, will get me adding more lot sizes. Also looking for NZD shorts. Will update when taken.

@Ceinz - remember 'margin call'... The movie is being launched this Friday...

Interesting to see AUD strengthening to go above 1.04 (AUDUSD). The short was stopped out with 210 loss. The EURUSD position too is underwater and looks set to be taken out. Clearly this hopium is strong smile
I'll wait till this Wednesday to see the strength of euro hopium...

The market is tricky and not favourable for big positions. At least for now.

@Ceinz, QW - I trade longer time frames and larger lot sizes mostly 0.5 - 1.0. Nobody likes losses, but my loss threshold is 500 for a particular position when testing strength of direction. The EURUSD short was also stopped out for $300 loss. So that makes $510 loss for both AUD and EUR shorts. Interesting hopium week - as stated a while back, Wednesday will be very interesting in euroland...

I like this, am actually changing my system to a more long-term one (less work). Btw what do you think about usd/cad. Looking at the weekly chart I see a nice set up for a potential 1200 pip trade.

And the hopium rallies continue smile

@ceinz - USDCAD looks like it wants to test 0.97 before it bounces. But the bounce is more critical if it fails at parity - around 1.00 - 1.01 levels. Should it fail to break above, 0.85 will be on the cards. However, if euroland pulls off a houdini act and the printing press goes superlaser on dollars, well it will be like last year. Buying up stocks, commodities and all risk appetite currencies and selling all dollars. But if euroland is able to create a disorderly panic central, the dollar index will be rallying like mad.
