    yea aussie popped above that 77 level finally on eur/aud weakness. we'll see what happens, my GJ took a turn for the better after the data when UJ got sold into above 79.

    Not really sure whats going on here though honestly lol

  4. I made myself a promise. If my account hit a certain number I would get flat, sweep, and send the IRS a little for their efforts and buy myself a luxury item.

    I hit that number this morning and did all of the above.

    My luxury item is this new trade.

    short aud
    short eur
    long gbp
    short usd/cad
    long usd/jpy

    the luxury is getting net long USD
