Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009I'm almost all in short EUR/USD and AUD/USD now... I don't expect a trend change but a decent dip at least.

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009Oh yes... I'm a bit angry about myself. I'm THE Euro bull itself.
And I shorted this beloved currency since 1.44... Being against the trend is sometimes very painful. As I said I don't expect a full change of the trend but a decent dip to at ...Median Grid Trading

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009Thanks smjones! I've heard about that as well. But the USD as carry funding currency will find a quick end as soon as the FED starts their rate hiking circle. It might be enough if they even only talk about it.

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009That's a good way of doing it. I often use simple higher highs / higher lows for up trends and if the price closes below the last recent (important) low I have to rethink my directional view. You can trade this approach without any fundamentals.

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009Nothing magic here as well. There are the smaller trades where I take 30-60 pips here and there. The bigger ones should be multiples of that so 120-240 pips or more. That's the way I do it. I often set TPs right below/above resistance/support areas.

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009The median is just the middle. Nothing fancy here. The borders are usually the last major support and resistance zones.

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009I now think about to go long in the Yen as the new gov of Japan isn't that intervention friendly anymore. Heck I even can imagine to see the USD/JPY below 70 now. Just added a new short in the Euro at 1.4750. Enough is enough.

Xaron replied Sep 17, 2009I know your feeling, that happened sooo often to me in the past... Well, my positions are deep in the red but I could close this USD/JPY thing with a nice win.

Xaron replied Sep 16, 2009I entered it at 90.50 before it was at 91.xx and entered right now a new one at 90.30. But this looks very strange now. I can't imagine that this risk rally can last much longer - at least I hope so, as I'm deep in the red with my Dollar long ...

Xaron replied Sep 12, 2009The Euro will climb to 1.50/60 till the end of this year. That's my view. I expect some Dollar strength before but I doubt we will see the Euro below 1.38 again. I don't know the GBP that good but due to QE it's a bit under pressure. And I expect ...
