Lots of volitility = great gains.
Posted on November 12th, 2007 by Yours Truly under ForexLooks like every Japanese cross pairs lost grounds as the Yen strengthened due to volatility in all markets causing a huge spillover effect. Furthermore, the USD rebounded heavily despite the overall downtrend.
Positions from last week:
CHF/JPY - Long position was stopped out with a -44 pip loss. All indicators pointed to a rise however all Yen pairs that day were down heavily.
Positions opened last night:
GBP/USD - Short position opened at 2.0837 and opened position upon its failed retracement of the weekend gap at 2.0857. Currently up +300 pips.
NZD/USD - Short position opened at 0.7574 and similar entrance to the GBP/USD with the weekend gap. Currently up +110 pips.
EUR/CAD - Long position using my experimental strategy #2 and similarly to the other two above, there was a weekend gap and I purchased after the 3rd failed retracement @ 1.3855. Currently up +246 pips.
