Position update

Here are the trades I am active in:

USD/JPY
Long USD 2m short Yen at 104.83 average.

Current rate:101.40

Comment:
Underwater here as the carry trade repayment has dragged this rate lower.
Will look to add a further 1m USD long on approaches to 100.00.

NZD/JPY
Square

Current rate 63.13

Comment:
Almost getting time to re-enter carry trades again. Will use approaches to 60.00 to begin building a position.

EUR/USD
Back to Square

Current rate 1.3600

Comment:
Decided discretion was the better part of valour, so cut the position out completely last week and took the gains. Will re- assess if EUR/USD moves back above 1.4000 in coming weeks as the madness around the world calms down.

Cashed out:
Short EUR4.0m (1.4283 average) long USD at 1.3885 last Friday, for a gain of USD159,200 @0.6600 NZD241,212.12 (not counting carry interest).

AUD/USD
Square

Current rate 0.7090

Comment:
Probably fallen far enough for the year, looking for a retracement. However AUD/USD has further to fall into next year. Use retracements higher into 0.7800 to begin building a short position.


Total gains banked this year to date:

NZD1,051,735.00

And that's how to become a millionaire!!!
