Reckon, seller is giving it a thrashing! So persistent, been waiting for it to flip around, still waiting, just keeps getting smashed.

it's still going.......
Re-entered on the lows with another tight stop, probabilities are less on this one though so at much lower size.
Liquidity providers remain strong AUD net longs.
I reckon I'm gonna have to stop trading AUDUSD and find another pair or instrument for my discretionary activities soon. It's not as risk on/risk off sort of trade as it used to be, more like USDJPY now. I like and understand FX, so any suggestions on a pair anyone likes to trade during Asia hours would be appreciated.

Agree its a completely different instrument to what it has been right up to 6 months ago.
What about AUDJPY?
I do actually get very good spreads on AUDJPY so should consider it. The other thing I was considering was to find a large cap stock I like and trade that, but after having traded 24h FX markets for a while now I find it very difficult to get a hold of the intraday charts for stocks and the gapping messes up my technicals.

If I were to trade index fut I would like to pick an Asian one.
My main issue with indices is that they generally move counterintuitively to what I'd expect as an intraday FX trader, a lot of the setups I like appear with less frequency and the profitable ones end up having a much higher correlation to my EOD signals so it's better to just keep my index trading to EOD. Also it's very easy for me to get relatively high frequency sentiment data on FX, I can't do that on index futs.

It's looking like history repeats for the time being. The European markets have moved down and needs to hold the current resistance level. The XJO is clearly marking 5000 as resistance. China has been moving down since Feb as well...
Cyprus is going to grab the headline for the next week or two, and the real crunch may come if another country gets dragged into it.
I am still holding some longs but only at ~50% size compared to Feb - and it wouldn't take long for me to get out of there completely...

After numerous dunkings throughout most of the past quarter, my prize Goose has finally taken flight, regaining its former altitude just prior to its ascension to a new annual high.
Regretfully, that bottle of savings brand lemonade is going to have to remain on ice for quite a while longer as the DAX Grail has a grimmer tale to tell.
Yes! The DAX has indeed struck yet again and the unthwartable has somehow been thwarted!
Vale DAX Grail. You were mighty. Unfortunately the DAX proved mightier!
(Future Attractions: The Grail Phoenix - Coming soon to a bourse near you!)
On a happier note, it just so happens that the recently deceased Grail is survived by a twin named AbiGrail.
AbiGrail has now been deployed and is thus far finding the FTSE (to which she is better suited) modestly rewarding.
Meanwhile, I've set the meanest grandmother of all my geese onto that dastardly DAX.
So DAX, don't bother crying to me in the coming months! You brought this all on yourself when you dis'd my precious Grail!!

Awesome. This clip never gets old.
Now is there a version about flow / mood trading out there?
