Long AUD/USD could be looking good after the close in New York.


ADD
Wait until after the selling at the Sydney open, takes about 15 mins.
Then step in against the trend, should break all support levels with stops taken out.

- Put volume in BP is running 7x normal with 13k contracts trading the opening 30mins as shares are little changed near 42.35. Largest block was a purchase of 6000 Jan 33 puts for 28c on the ISE, followed 14mins later by another 3700 for the same price. ISE data shows the trade is closing for a firm account.

Indeed you were Top Dollar on that call........
 
mm, bit more in it - +30 strong by 13:00. If it follows yesterday's route ftse will soon start trading weak.

oo, that's unusual, all one way traffic today. Apart from a tad of weaknees in last half hour ftse strong vs dow all dayy without pause and finished +47 strong overall.

I'm short/long now and will probably need to hold overnight.
