hilary - either that or the Dollar Protection Squad wade in - that would be interesting 'cos I've burnt quite a few bits of my anatomy anticipating their arrival. I've also got triggered positions at 19500 and 19550 - one of which has opened - GULP !!!

I'm long cable too, mg - leapt in about 30 points ago. Also got a small jpy/usd thingy going

hilary - 07 Dec 2004 11:49 - 2226 of 11056

The Dollar Protection Squad consists solely of the BoJ, mg. And they tend to come in while we're still in bed.

The ECB are too namby-pamby to intervene, the BoE couldn't really care less and a weak Dollar probably suits the Fed atm, so they're hardly likely to intervene.

choccy
I'm swinging the other way I'm afraid ;0

hilary - 07 Dec 2004 11:50 - 2228 of 11056

There's nothing like trading with the trend, mg.

:o)

mg - 07 Dec 2004 11:54 - 2229 of 11056

hilary
That should read "there's mg trading nothing like with the trend" ;(

The Weaker the dollar is the better for the US. Although its more important the Peso, Yen and Cad $ are weak than us.. It helps the Trade Deficit.. The only ones likely to interven are the Japanese.. Rumurs are it will be the 100 level..

Got all that from interviews that have been on CNBC over the past couple of days..

mg - 07 Dec 2004 11:57 - 2231 of 11056

Panic in Tokyo - BoJ have heard I'm short - Tora Tora !!

hilary - 07 Dec 2004 12:04 - 2232 of 11056

Actually, mg, I think that your Kamikaze style of trading against the trend might well pay off. 1.95 could prove too tough an obstacle for today.

mg - 07 Dec 2004 12:10 - 2233 of 11056

Banzai - or is that Bonzai.

About bloody time - me and that trend were beginning to fall out. If 70 goes then I reckon it's clear water down to 40 - but thereagain, I've been calling it wrong since I started playing with this flaming cable thingymybob - apart from my first foray - should never have got lucky on my first punt ;)

mg - 07 Dec 2004 12:30 - 2234 of 11056

Hmmmmmmmm TA reversal off 70 - and could still have some legs .....

chocolat - 07 Dec 2004 12:34 - 2235 of 11056

5 more minutes and I'll decide if I stick or twist...frankly, I'd rather have been short the jpy thingie

MightyMicro - 07 Dec 2004 12:40 - 2236 of 11056

choccie: I just love your dirty Forex technical talk "short the jpy thingie", not to mention "stick or twist".

Now where's that unattributed chart earlier in this thread that predicted 1.93, 2.1 then 2.4 -- it's panning out quite well, so far.

Bobcolby - 07 Dec 2004 13:09 - 2237 of 11056

Thats nice, just came back and cable knocking on 9500, raised my stop so at worst I will be all square on trade.

Bobcolby - 07 Dec 2004 14:33 - 2238 of 11056

My stop just went at 67, will be looking at long again when cable gets around 40ish

Tellon - 07 Dec 2004 14:41 - 2239 of 11056

Im done till tomorrow now.. Later all..

chocolat - 07 Dec 2004 15:00 - 2240 of 11056

Oh boy...someone cut my cable
But my jpy thingie's coming along nicely ;) How am I doing, MM?

Nice one, mg :))

mg - 07 Dec 2004 15:07 - 2241 of 11056

'bout bloody time - next stage is around 420/25 level where it fannied around yesterday - IMHO, DYOR etc etc. It would still be clearly in the ranging up-trend but be a better place for me to get out.

mg - 07 Dec 2004 15:32 - 2242 of 11056

Decided to stick with it to 380 - doesn't seem to want to stay at 20/25.

chocolat - 07 Dec 2004 16:27 - 2243 of 11056

Finally took 30 off jpy - sticking with cable long for now ;)
