At the start of the week, JPY strengthened considerably, opposite of weak USD, as if switching places.
However, it's still within the range of a normal pullback.



The 10 day currency strength now have AUD as the strongest. Next one is GBP



I'm now looking at the AUD and GBP for opportunity for long and JPY to short. USD might be a good candidate to short if it remains weak.

Entering 1 unit on AUDJPY.
Opened and drove down, tested last week's VPOC buyers stepped in.
There's no OTF yet so will look to scale out at 84.2-84.4

Will also be looking for further opportunity to add

looking at AUDCAD for opportunity for long. AUD is strong and CAD starts getting weaker.
AUDCAD has tested down and just pushed above last week's high. Volume is building currently at the high, making it a weak high

Scale in of 1 unit for AUDCAD triggered at 1.0066
Total of 2 unit

AUDJPY is still at 1 unit. I wanted to scale another one but price did not do any dip and if I were to add, it would still be around the same price area. How do you guys execute your scale in strategy? I'm looking to improve mine.

Too exposed to AUD at the moment. Will look for GBP trades to diversify as it looks weak

I got stopped out at AUDCAD for 2 unit.
I'm now looking to shift my portfolio to GBP. Looking at GBPAUD for opportunity to short

I bailed my AUDJPY position as JPY is currently one of the strongest currency this week.

I've had 2 losing trades this week for AUDJPY and AUDCAD. I missed the scale out area on AUDJPY

I'm now holding short GBPAUD and looking to increase my position
