  3. All may drop against USD, but my preference would be to short EURAUD heavy and short EURJPY. Both shorts should do very well this week. EURAUD gets the nod on size.


    Short EURAUD > 1.184
    Short EURJPY >98.2
    Long USDJPY to 80 from opening tonight

  5. I guess all the USD bears are over on the economics form, there don't seem to be many here on forex.

    nice atticus. I took profit on my EUR/AUD longs Friday afternoon.

    I like the EJ trade, but wouldn't a UJ to 80 hold up cross/jpy a bit? Maybe a retrace or consolidation on UJ would help the EJ short before an attempt at 80? I dont know...

  7. It may, but I think the risk-off will flow to USD preferentially over JPY. USDJPY long will be the smallest allocation.

  9. I am looking for a major dollar (bull) reversal this week. Not a huge move against EUR, but mostly on the periphery.
