Asian FX market open: more stops on topside

I’m hearing of fairly heavy stops above 1.3850 in the EUR/USD and above .8810 in the AUD/USD and above 79.00 in the AUD/JPY. These might come into play as the session progresses.

Good luck today.

    Hey Sean, Any sense for the eur/jpy market. I imagine that 124.4 is an interesting level, and could provide either a good long or short entry point. Doesn’t look like there’s much support or resistance for a couple hundred pips in either direction…

    Good morning Sean. Pints on me if I’m lucky enough to do the traveling I hope for someday. ;)

    Well I’m just havin’ a quick short right now ;)

    Morning/evening JR. I think you’ve picked the right level there. 124.50/125 is now pivotal as that was the breakdown point imho. A daily close above there and the rik aversion shorts will start bailing out big time but still it might be worth selling the rally in early Asia with a tightish stop

    Glad to see you booked that P Zeke. That’ll be a pint of creme de menthe!! .8850ish now pivotal in AUD/USD I think. I’ll try selling an intraday rally with stops above 8930ish. What you thinking?

    Jamieson is it Lilac? Or a Paddy’s? I’ve added to my cable and gbp/jpy longs so I might need a steadier soon!!

    You got your name down for pope then, Sean? ;)

  8. Sean Lee on February 9th, 2010 22:53 GMT

    I think I’d make an excellent Pope.

    More of a slow burner, Sean – it’s the last of the wine ;)

  10. lilac on February 9th, 2010 22:54 GMT

    Yep I can see you under a mitre.

    I’m hanging tight for now. Cut risk in half and adjusted risk from 1:1 to 1:3. If no follow through I’ll book and reevaluate. Thoughts?

  12. zeke on February 9th, 2010 23:01 GMT

    *adjusted r/r

    “I think I’d make an excellent Pope.” Hilarious. I could easily envision a little ‘weak long flush’ before topside stops are taken out. Just my 2 pips.

    Eek I’ve just noticed your geppy long bit, Sean.
    Still waiting for eur/jpy to come off a bit more.
    Or I might give in and tootle off ;)
