Going to be trading into the events of this week , some key data to be released for midweek which will no doubt be in focus. Q4 GDP for both currencies , along with USD personal income and spending and ISM manufacturing PMIs As you can see we are entering a trade around the current level Short , with a view to T1 profit taking @ 0.7450 level , then ride it down to 0.7330 just above the 23 fib line where we have seen the buyers stepping in again. Stop set just above the last high @ 0.7750 You have to be patient with this pair as its a slow mover Reason for trade : We have had rejection for a 5th time with a large bearish candle and some strong resistance seen here @ the 0.7700-0.7760 levels , prepare for some volatility with this weeks data release, but a good trade set up with a rating from us out of ten of ( 8 )
Happy trading

So we are still in this trade , be patient and wait for the RBA overnight with their comments on the Aussie dollar, if they have a cautious tone and keep the rates on hold we should see this slowly gain some traction and go south towards our key target levels , Its being held up a bit due to USD momentum slowing off the back of yellen's less hawkish tone last week, so all eyes on the job reports on Friday , for this reason we may look to change our view on the time we hold this trade , but for now its still the same view until Friday.
Stay tuned

Okay so our stop was triggered and 110 pips profit locked in, we were very aware the .7500 handle was near the .50 fib retracement area, and this could prove some temporary support , however the choice was made to allow the trade to run . We will be re entering this trade if we see a nice retrace to the 0.7600 levels . Stay tuned as right now the daily has closed on the 0.618 fib line if we can close on the daily above this level we could see a confluence zone of between 0.7600 - 0.7630 which is the last high on the candle which formed a shooting star ...... However we will start buying in @ 0.7600 slowy . All eyes on the feds language this week .
we rate this trade out of ten ( 7.0)
Happy trading

So this trade is working out nicely , We had a more neutral tone from the RBA with some slight hawkishness in there which surprised the market a bit , however the rates were kept on hold as expected, any rallies were short lived and given the surprise figures from the USD - ADP 298k which was better by 100k + beating the expected figure of approx 184k, this has given the Greenback some more ammunition. China's trade balance figure was disappointing which will also weigh on the Aussie dollar.
Keep an eye out for Friday USD-NFP figures.
