Whenever this looks like it wants to go up for a little while, I keep thinking about doing a little long scalp. But I just CAN'T.... it's almost a psychological barrier for me or something. Feels like that even jumping into a tiny rise is dangerous, ...

Yep, thanks. Lots of good advice here, and I'm definitely listening. And yeah, I'm currently doing tiny little lot sizes (based on a tiny % of my account size), so I was at least smart enough to know to start really small.

Tell me if this is stupid on my part: I've had a short for a couple days that went pretty hard against me, and I stubbornly refused to get out. But now it's come back to where I'm a little bit in profit. After the big negative I had been holding, it ...

Yeah, I'm halfway joking. My charts are FAR simpler than a lot I see around here, but I at least use a simple MA and a stoch oscillator where I keep an eye on moves toward a 50% line. I'll admit I'm still a little sketchy on S/R lines though... some ...

Yeah figuring that one out too. Nasty hobbitses somewhere doing all kinds of nasty things!
As for which way it's going.... yeah, while I'm leaning toward down, I wouldn't bet a ton on that. Esp. the talk of parity... got a long way to go for ...Minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee

Re. the announcement later on of a rate cut (or not), is there a consensus on which will cause the more extreme move in AUD... down for cut, or up for no cut?
