Short Eur/Usd @ 1.3216
Stop 1.3240
Target still mostly undecided but at least 1.3180. Pending how it all plays out.

Eur/Usd short + 23pts

Decided to close out here because it was showing rejection of 1.3180 lvl and the fact that i have to go to work and won't be able to manage the trade.

nice one

Thanks mate.

It end up coming of another 30 pts down to 1.3160lvl after a while.. but gee.. what do you do really. I guess in the end you never really know what will happen, better to protect the 23 pts i had when showing signs of a retrace, and keeping in mind i can't manage the trade why I'm at work. I'm happy i took the trade off, just sucks watching it come off more. But i guess that's just part of the game.

Short Aud/Usd @ 0.9024
Stop 0.9050
Target 0.8980-70 area

Aussie rallied on interest rates unchanged. It's now showing rejection, and as history shows on the chart i posted it's a good chance for a retrace.

Plenty of room for the Euro to move either way. Daily.

Closed Eur/Usd + 70pts

I went short after the Euro started to fall on not so great comments from Draghi after the ECB rate decision.

Closed out as the short has come to a halt for now and i have to head to work.

Eagerly awaiting NFPS.
