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... $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

@Ceinz - remember 'margin call'... The movie is being launched this Friday... Nice work @hisah. U guys updates r valuable. I see US building permits are lower than expectation (at 594K against a forecast of 600K n even lower than previous which was 625K). Wont this boost the EURUSD in the short term? Conventional thinkers waste time building shelters when they are unnecessary and then have no shelters when they need them the most. Socionomists do the opposite.

Meanwhile the dollar is getting hit across board. The volatility

@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
I'll wait till this Wednesday to see the strength of euro hopium...

@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... $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!

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. “small step for man”

And the hopium rallies continue @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. $15/barrel oil... The commodities lehman moment arrives as well as Sovereign debt volcano!
