Im out of EU/JPY forgive me for the late reply here but i got the little one home sick today..get a break in the weather and the kids go outside for two days and now its doctor visits,hoping its not something we will all pass back and forth like STREP

Closed trade for +61.3 pips i tried to pull the trigger for 67 but it didnt give it to me...you guys see LB/JPY moved from 170.13 to 170.68 in 8 mins

I really want to short EU/USD but everything ive read says news later in week should push it a bit higher...thoughts anyone?

It is going to be very volatile, EUR has CPI and Unemployment on Thursday.

I like a long in USD/CHF too..should be at descent support level..i like the look of the charts from the 8hr up

If they ramp EU/JPY back up im not done playing with her either though.Its early in the week still might be better off to let things stew a bit more

I dont get the Euro and Pound..how are they valued so much higher than the USD when they both admit that they will be keeping rates low longer than the US Fed will?

Makes no sense to me at all...

trade box set on USD/JPY  it price creeps up to 102.289 I will be pulling the trigger ...To go short
caught 13.6 pips back last night on the long AUS after the bad call on the long earlier in the night .. I was able to sleep better .. 

I like USD/JPY to reverse around 102. 290 I wont get in early on this I want to see it struggle at that level first ...

Looks like they are running the USD today..maybe because the Euro is getting hit and the momo is running to the dollar.

Jjust noticed looking through charts that EU/JPY also came down to 139.60s.....i should have at least left my limit set at 139.85 which was my initial target for the cross..PATIENCE is the word of the day..lol
Good feeling knowing my calls are right but its much better to have the pips,I left 140+ of them out there
Anything you guys are watching for a trade?

Not to take a jab at Knox or anything but what do you guys think about a long in AUD/USD at this level? This area should provide good support just dont know how much upside there is to be had...

Still in that long USD/JPY. 

Didn't get out over risk this morning because I was running late. 

Checked it as I was having lunch and things looked great,  got home and sitting right back where I was. 

Should have exited and taken the 40+ pips. 

Still around 16-17 for the time being. 

Probably going to move my stop up 10 pips so the worst I can do is -15, and let it ride.

(I'm looking at the 1hr) if we get a breach of the 50EMA I am out, no reason to take a loss on this one.
