Ivan's Trade Thread, part II

Discussion in 'Forex' started by Ivanovich, Sep 12, 2008.

  1. Looks like GBP/USD is taking off to the downside.

    Looks like a lot of buying started hitting right around the 1.38 level. Not sure iof that was profit taking after the spike or what....but that was a nice little spike we had there.

    I went short at around 1.3910 or so, and hopefully this down move is a sign of things to come. ha ha

    That quick rejection makes me a little fearful of a reversal, however.




    Ivan, would you mind offering insight into your short trade on AUD/USD?

    Thanks.

  10. Price hit very strong resistance from a horizontal scalp line and the 25x5 DMA at ~1.9920. The price has hit and declined three times in four days and eight times in the previous four months. Next level of support is 1.9515.

    Stop around 1.9930.
