HI AVG ,

Sorrry to heard that...i know those problem from myself...

My advice : NEVER OVERLEVERAGE .... is veryyy dangerous and is veryyy hard to cut that fucking loose...and the stop loss(cut the f...g looses) is the must dificult -imo- thing to do , but is ABSOLUT NECESARLY...i know is easy to say and hard to do that (btw , i spoke from my painfull experiences) , but if you don"t do that means big problems...

Good luck

@AVG: I have no opinion on AUD/USD at the moment, but for EUR/USD, and GBP/USD, the sentiment is clearly bearish medium term, but you will always get these strong rallies at certain points. These are opportunities to sell into them, but of course, you have to set your stop accordingly, expecting further rallies to take place. That is the way I play them anyway. (I also do with same with EUR/JPY, even though Ashraf suggests buying this as a hedge against EUR/USD - however, I think it's just another way of playing it ... I prefer to go with my bearish sentiment (for the time being) on Euro generally (excepting EUR/GBP which I believe is a sort of special case)).

If you have taken a big hit, it might be a good time to take a break from active trading. You could paper trade and/or demo trade in the meantime.

Take care,
M.

Sure am interested in Ashraf's take on euro "caps". Nearly everyone has been calling for a euro "relief" oversold rally, and we are now getting it.

Also, Ashraf changed his Gold cap from 1103/1105 to 1133 if we get a NY close above 1118/1119. These numbers are a far cry from 1103/1105.

@AVG, with EUR/USD moving into 1.37 handle and possibly eying 138, this should give AUD/USD further prop upwards well into the 90 handle. The AUD/USD 90 handle is going to be also a key psychological level. I am waiting for Fed Budget data later to see way it moves the USDX, otherwise, the following Asian trading session could bid this higher. ~CB

Been building a nice short position in Aussie. This countertrend is nearly exhausted, and will last only as long as the eur/gbp remains bid to support euro. When euro reverses, commodities tank, brining aussie along with it.
