I'm short GU from the H1 upper TMA tram/weekly pivot rejection/2 pins = 1 * 2h pin - closed 2/3 now.

And same with Loonie as Steve.

I mentioned this on FF but I would not be long USDCAD at the end of the month. I highly recommend dumping it and shorting it.

A large drop is expected this week as CAD appreciates due to oil contract expirations which will increase liquidity to the current month's contract. Spike in oil = spike in CAD. Canada is afterall the world's largest supplier of Oil.

Yes - I also opened a Shelley EA basket when I thought it might be coming & I was short EU too on another demo :lol:

And I did dump the Loonie Verb at BE - I missed your advice but thanks anyway I appreciate it.

As well as the ucad buy I described earlier, I was also in a cadjpy sell that I did not describe.

Both struggled and at one point were within 10 pips of sl. They both recovered and went into profit, so I closed them at +7 combined.

The Cable trade was great. Finally closed at a jumping stop of 30, at +70.

ucad has since been firmly rejected by the weekly pivot following its brief excursion above. Following verb's comments earlier, I have taken a tiny, speculative punt on a ucad sell.

:D

I am now short AUDCAD after a waiting to sell EA order was triggered on the crossing of the weekly open price - SRF trade back in to the longer term trend.

This is the only time I'll post an out of system trade but just wanted to show you where I've been shorting and where I'm setup for the next USDCAD descent.

I have seen the end of the month AUD and CAD effect but haven't really made time to figure out how to trade them.

Ok trends are back in effect, retracements from the beginning of the week are seemingly done. I'll probably wont hang onto overnight trades as we head into NFP friday but here is what I'm looking at today.

05-31-2012
Sell:
AUDJPY - in already, but looking to get in during London
AUDUSD - in already, but looking to get in during London
CADJPY - looking to get in during London
CHFJPY - looking to get in during London
EURJPY - in already, but looking to get in during London
EURUSD - looking to get in during London
GBPJPY - looking to get in during London
GBPUSD - in already, but looking to get in during London
NZDUSD - in already, but looking to get in during London
NZDJPY - looking to get in during London

Buy:
USDCAD - staying away from until next week
USDCHF - in already, but looking to get in during London

Obviously the dollar is being flocked to in risk aversion.

My floating P&L for NB trades is around +1,200.0 pips now, will probably close them out before Friday.
All times are UTC Page 7 of 37
