Re: Aud/Jpy

Nice solid days work by this pair.

Still in this,for now.
Would like to see it hold above the green dotted line,
daily close close below and i'm out.

Re: Fiber.

Crap day,didn't like that one bit,another inside bar of a bigger sort of inside bar,
will be fun when it breaks.
Got run over and got my face ripped off a few times,
my timing was way off and i payed for it.
And what the hell was going on with Cable today!

So we've broken out to the top side of the first part of
this inside bar formation,a pull back to 4130 to buy for a move up
to 4300 would be nice.

Re: Cable.

Looks like someone really wanted cable today,
even as i write this just before u.s markets are due to close it's still bid.
Lets see how it goes up here.
Took a short at 6288.

Got stopped out over night for a loss of 20 pips.

Re: Dx

Who would have thought it.
So here we are at 75.60,we're inside a very big bullish bar,
no direction yet,i think we test 76 ish and see from there,
i still feel very bearish on the Dollar,the time just isn't quite
right yet.

Went a bit higher than 76. but could only manage one daily close
above,this is starting to look weak now.

Dow.

Strong day on the dow yesterday,with QE 2 coming to an end the
feeling is stocks will rollover,the daily looks to be setting up for higher
prices though,tough one to call.

Working it's way back to 4130 nicely,took a short scalp for 15 pips,
waiting to see how price reacts if we get to 4130,could drop as low as 4115
or so and still be part of the pullback after breakout,time will tell,
slow and choppy today.
Price at 4147 as typing.

Closed at 4137 for 60 pips.
Don't feel like holding over night at the moment.

Oh bugger,looks like things were fun over night.
A pullback to around 4200 to buy for a run at 4335 looks like
the most likely play,thats what i'm looking to do but it is Friday
so need to be carefull.

Thats a 100 pips,it's a long weekend,i'm out,closed.

4316 was the final print on my charts,all sorts of bad
news about the euro zone but for me both the weekly
and the monthly look bullish.
Daily closes above 4050 needed for me to keep this view.

Interesting point for DX on this old chart of mine,can this level hold?

I think we need to test 4330,will be scalping short to there and see then.
Although there seems to be a very strange bid under fiber at present,
dollar is total rubbish as normal,needs to get some traction.

 

[jezek5]

Blimey these markets feel thin today,
preying we're not going to get a long bloody summer of this,
already started watching the 5 min chart,not good.

If the Dx can't muster any kind of bounce from here
then it could be looking very bleak indeed.

Got as low as 4382 and hit a ton of bids,to be frank
i'm a bit unsure on this at the moment,chunnel looks to be
the main driver of this move.

Bit late in the day but a very juicy looking 1 hr pin.

Scalped 25 pips on half, BE stop on rest,played out nicely.
