AAPL position running extremely well. A pullback at this point would be welcome to add on. Moving my stop to 61.97.

AUDJPY broke through my stop and kept running. This is a genuine breakout that I'd continue to short on fundamentals, but I'm compelled to go long on the technical strength. From dailypfennig.com:

The Australian Dollar rose to its weekly high overnight as speculation the central bank will raise interest rates next week pushed it up. The Aussie should continue to rally today as a report overnight showed consumer prices rose at the fastest pace in almost six years in the second quarter, breaching the central bank's inflation target. Annual inflation is now running at 4%, well above the 2 - 3% band Reserve Bank Governor Ian Macfarlane is ordered to keep it within.

I'll buy a 5 lots long, half of my short. Shorting 10 EURUSD as well.

Shorting 10 AUDJPY here. The ¥ is stronger than this price reflects. Over-bought weekly and daily charts.

Shorting 500 SPY here. We're right at the short point for a building pennant. If that breaks I'll reverse. Limit 126.01

From this morning's WSJ - Market's page:

Merger activity often acts as a catalyst for the broader stock market, as investors make bets on the prospects for other mergers. It also often demonstrates optimism about the businesses of companies being taken over.

Ascending reversals on the £ weekly:



Clear breakout continuing to run.

Went long on some out of the money xle puts: 06 Aug 55.00 (XBT TC-E) on kensey's advice. Insane phat profits on eurusd and gbpusd. The € never hit my limit. Keeping everything else open long with tighter stops. I like goog here too, but no open order.

Closed up my EURUSD for GBPUSD long. Looks to be leading the reversal.

Nice hammer formed on SPY at end of day. Q's closed out. Should have known. Opened 500 BBH long and 500 OIH long.

Open:

• 500 AAPL long
  
• 500 QQQQ long
  
• 500 GOLD long
  
• 10 EURUSD
  

Panic over mid-east way overdone. Looking for buying opps. US$ strength part of that play. Don't understand the gold drop. Waiting for BBH entry.
