Paulo1 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 Sell limit AUDUSD 1.0157 stop 1.0223 target parity to USD. China alot of news today, so anything remotely negative will be hit the AUD. As said the AUD should fall and did. Was taken out @9950 plus 200. Watch parity closely, could become resistance or we may see a very fast reversal.

Chivas Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 S&P Cuts U.S. Rating for First Time on Deficit Reduction Pact [/url]By John Detrixhe - document.write(dateFormat(new Date(1312592977000),"mmm d, yyyy h:MM TT Z"));Aug 6, 2011 8:09 AM GMT+0700 http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-08-06/u-s-credit-rating-cut-by-s-p-for-first-time-on-deficit-reduction-accord.html After the week stocks have just had, holding long over the weekend is a very bold move Chivas, I salute you and hope it gaps in your direction. An amazing week in financial markets, I hope you all did OK. Yes not to be recommended to be honest but sometimes you have to take the bull by the horns !! Was expecting the downgrade in rating for the US but would have been nice if markets had been open when announced.Will see at 0500 monday morning Thai time when (my) market maker reopens. Bold move that has backfired (for now) Opened 114 down with US down 277 on opening. Gold very close to 1700 Took big loss on Dax at 150@£10 but take the rough with smooth. Went to bed with Dax at 5900 still expecting a bounce and its down a further total of 350 this morning at 5554 This is vastly oversold IMHO with opportunity arising shortly.

Everything is oversold, but that is no reason to enter a trade. Wait for consolidation phase and look for a reversal signal. FOMC meeting tonight. Be interesting. CHFJPY trade posted earlier sell "Trades i am looking at today for entry.<BR><BR>CHFJPY sell limit, as yesterday. 130.00 zone " this has been triggered @ 130.25 stop 103.81 sold at 102.84, hold .5 lot and stop entry.

Yea really need to stop trading counter trend but I felt yesterday there was confluence across a number of markets and a number of things caught my eye wasn't basing the decision totally off the fibs. Came out -180pips across the board yesterday not a good day but could be worse. Thinking of trying to Incorporate Heiken-ashi candles into my trading to stop me taking counter trend trades.

Paulo1 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) Not many set-ups from the 4hr. Do have a sell on cable @ 1.6220 stop 1,6430 t1 6182 t2 6111. prefer a higher sell entry. or can wait for a sell stop @ 1.6220 Eurusd signal from earlier is still in play, last 4hr candle close was right on daily pivot @ 1.4231 USDJPY looks to sell off further. Strong support 76.96 , say 77.00 Gold has presented a 4hr shooting star, These usually gives warning to a trend reversal. There is also weekly r3 in confluence with daily r3. Present support is 1747.29. , 1732.66 to 1726.87 and daily pivot @ 1705.86. Ideal entry being 1758 zone on a retest of the high @ 1772.05 stop will need to be above, 1775 looks about right. target 1 would be 1700. Patience needed and wait for a retest of the high. Otherwise take a 1/4 position at market 1750 area. Moving averages are still showing a strong trend with separation from the 5 period pivot moving average. Stoc is in overbought area. No worth the attention at this point as stoc is best used coming out of consolidation. Abviously there is none here (4hr). would not be buying at these levels. Chart attched.

Chivas Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Opened a further long trade at 0245 local time Thailand on Dax and snared another 100 point back. Virtually breakeven after weekends disatrous long trade held over the weekend-gamble that didnt pay off and wont be repeated. Gold back at 1753 as I type.

Chivas Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Flat news weekend to date as I type. Personally I think Nikkei will open marginally higher along with US. Will let initial movement settle and open small long trade on Dax and FTSE when market maker reopens 23.00 BST sunday. Target 50 points each on automation.
