FX update 7/24

I like the idea of selling EUR/USD if it makes its way up to the 1.34 resistance. Chinese PMI came in with a huge miss yesterday (CPI also came in, slight miss) and threw my AUD position for a bit of a surprise ride. Sitting in the red there currently but still holding for what I believe will be a bit of a short squeeze in AUD/USD, pair seems well supported at 0.90. GBP still floating around resistance levels. Again, all move my current open positions are smaller than I could have made them given that either the technicals or the macro fundamentals don't completely align. I remain largely on the sideline right now.

 Further AUD commentary:

 "daily chart does continue to show evidence of potential basing, and really only a daily close back under 0.9100 would concern......" - Joel Kruger

 Agreed.

 "Upside Scenario still favored" - Ilya Spivak

 Agreed.


 Side note: Twitter has to be the best place to feel out market sentiment.
