Tuesday 06 October

US dollar is being taken to the woodshed a bit today ... The Aussies raised rates 0.25% the first ones to do so and the commodity currencies are catching some bids.  AUDUSD & NZDUSD at new highs and USDCAD sitting on support.  Sterling as usual is lagging ... the indices are rallying.
If the dollar keeps going then crude should break out of this flag but its really not tempting me.
