I'm still kind of bullish on AUD/USD, but must admit, it never seems to want to go much above .93, and certainly not .94.
I gathered there had been some shenanigans with misuse of forum names, but didn't really think it could have been PippedOff. Well I hope his cooling off period in the "sin bin" or naughty corner will have had a beneficial effect.
@PippedOff: Good to hear from you again. I've missed you as well. Actually I think you disappeared soon after I went away on holiday (away from computers & trading) for a few weeks. Against my better judgement, I left several positions on. During that time I had some big losses shorting cable, but fortunately they were made up for by wins as my gold and Euro shorts came back into the money, so I broke even there, or just made a small profit.
Of course, while you have been "away", that whole GS thing has come to a head. I've been imagining you chuckling away in the background...
I wish you good trading, and hope to see you posting again in due course.
LOL! Well, looks like I missed a boat here - I see it just hit 1.3214! ... oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles. I'm off to bed shortly - wonder how far below 1.32 it will be when I wake up :-) Well done, to anyone who was still actively shorting :)
Can't answer your big questions @Shane. Would just say that although I am still bearish on EUR/USD, I am currently flat having closed for profit earlier my various shorts. Would not be a seller just now at this level, especially not just before the weekend - been caught like that too many times before. I'm not going long either (although I know people who are, not just on this forum). I'll continue selling into any rallies, if any, above 1.33 - 1.335 or so, for modest targets. Next week is another week of course.
@Said: No disrespect was intended, and good luck in your career search.
@Forum: Well, Twitter was originally for chit-chat, and now it's used for trading; go figure. So long as we don't forget to talk about trading and intermarket analysis, I don't see a problem, as Asad has said.
Speaking of which, I see that Ashraf has said there is a cap of 1153 on gold. I've been watching it make its way up from ~1125 and wondering how soon it would get to ~1160 again.
