Trade Alert: EUR/USD

We didn't get the bounces I was looking for, but things are starting to fall into place for a substantial risk reversal.  These things can sometimes take time, but for those who are more aggressive, I am going to test the waters with only one unit.  More conservative traders may want to wait for further confirmation, or until the volume returns.  The market is in the middle of the typical summer low volume.

Trade Update

Caught a few pips, and want to lighten my load of open positions, so I closed this for a minor profit.  Other postions still working.  Going to go back to the longer time frame charts so done with intra-day trades.  Fridays can be a little wonky anyway, and month end doesn't help.

Date:  Friday, July 30, 2010

Action:   Closed 2 units USD/JPY at current market levels (0.86.538)

I am usually not too keen on trading intra-day and on the shorter time frame charts, but this pair has approached minor resistance on a smaller time frame, so I am going to see if I can catch a few pips:

Trade Alert: Sell AUD/JPY

We got stopped out for minimal profit late last night on this pair, but the tone of the risk appetite today means I am more confident that AUD/JPY is on it's way down.  I bought at current market levels, but I have left a generous stop loss price, so consider entering if the price heads higher to a price you are willing to risk, or wait until confirmation of direction, as if it is going down I will most certainly be looking at areas where I can add to my position.  Never risk more than you can afford to lose.

Trade Alert: Sell AUD/JPY

Here are the details of an AUD/JPY postion I opened earlier today.  There is a possible head and shoulders pattern unfolding here, and if that is the case, we've caught it early at the high, close to the point where the pattern would be invalidated.  If the pattern continues to develop, then I will be looking to add to this position.  If I do, I will be sure to post.  If you would like to be updated in a timely manner I urge you to follow me on twitter.  In coming months, I hope to be developing that service, but for now that is the best way to remain as up-to-date as possible.
