1.30 jm cosensus 225 but now rumours of 300/400k....... who bloody knows.but thgts are to get usd really moving will have to be 300k +
so will get knee jerk after figs and then trend reversal....plenty of movement to get it round me tits...lol

hilary - 04 Mar 2005 10:31 - 3602 of 11056

The USD failure to break higher suggests to me that the momentum players are holding off from adding to their positions till after the numbers. I get the feeling that 225 is already in the price and the numbers might need to significantly beat the street to push the Dollar higher. We'll see.

Bob,

I took the dog to the vets as BT suggested. He's got a degenerative disease affecting nerves/spinal chord and will now be on steroids for the rest of his days.

hilary , agree think if we see say 275/300 will initally see usd buying but cud reverse by day end..as always its not the movement on the figs but how the market reacts 15mins after...

chocolat - 04 Mar 2005 12:19 - 3604 of 11056

Still holding a euro short from yesterday morning, 13152.
Decisions, decisions..

Bobcolby - 04 Mar 2005 13:21 - 3605 of 11056

I am short cable because I think it wud take significantlly lower than 200ish to cause a rally

Hilary

Sorry to hear about the dog

mostrader - 04 Mar 2005 13:23 - 3606 of 11056

bob 225 even 250 built in maybe up to 300...

jeffmack - 04 Mar 2005 13:28 - 3607 of 11056

I'm long cable 1.908. Here we go...

jeffmack - 04 Mar 2005 13:31 - 3608 of 11056

I took the +40 that was on offer

Bobcolby - 04 Mar 2005 13:32 - 3609 of 11056

Stopped out -25 :(

jeffmack - 04 Mar 2005 13:43 - 3610 of 11056

bob
I nearly always use stops but these reporting times are too whippy so I take my chances. I sat watching it dip to 1.9050 which is about where I would have had my stop if I had placed one

chocolat - 04 Mar 2005 13:50 - 3611 of 11056

Oh rats.
Stops 'n spikes.. :S

Bobcolby - 04 Mar 2005 13:58 - 3612 of 11056

Jeff

My stop was at 105. I went short at 9080, you were long. Its my turn next:)

I am all square on NFP punts over last 5 months

ChippyMinton - 04 Mar 2005 14:35 - 3613 of 11056

Ooops. Closed a usdcad short for +60, had a oco order in which I then cancelled but I presumed by cancelling one that the other would also cancel. Wrong, found that I was then long. Drats, had to close that for -30. Should of let the oco close for me which was the whole point of it. Lesson learnt.

mg - 04 Mar 2005 17:11 - 3614 of 11056

Came in late - obviously after the bull party - and having a go at shorting all this enthusiasm. Short from 252 and 247 - so happy so far. Looking to exit around 230

{EDIT - stops now in @ 250 - just in case it gets all bullish again]

chocolat - 04 Mar 2005 17:13 - 3615 of 11056

...did you? ;)

Got stopped out around the figs - was nowhere near a screen to salvage my short.

mg - 04 Mar 2005 17:18 - 3616 of 11056

choccie
Don't be rude - or over-excited - yes I did - and now I'm gagging for it - shifted my limits to 19185 - 'cos I'm a hungry beast wot's in need of gratification and stuff .....

chocolat - 04 Mar 2005 17:35 - 3617 of 11056

Well I've gone long 19236 - hope I pressed the right button :S

Just put a stop in at 28 so I can go and raid the fridge. *gulp*

mg - 04 Mar 2005 17:52 - 3618 of 11056

Choccie Contrarian - I think I spelt that right - We're going DOWN on the bulls - brace yersel' sheila - it's gonna get tuff on the fridge gobblers ;)

chocolat - 04 Mar 2005 18:04 - 3619 of 11056

I'm braced, I'm braced :)

chocolat - 04 Mar 2005 18:22 - 3620 of 11056
