i have a question to all fundamental-traders: i read that the sharp drop in the asia-session was a result of japans current situation.

but why? shouldn't the euro-zone and usa be influenced in the same way? i thought only the yen-crosses would be influenced heavily. but why seems the euro to be weaker than the dollar in this situation?

not a fundamental... just write what i think:

- dollar is strong because of the oil price coming down (also against Euro)
- Oil is coming down because a big oil consumer (japan) is needing much less oil bec. current situation...

other opinions?

read somewhere a theory that because nuclear plants will be stopped/repaired/ etc Japan will have to import more oil to cover the reconstruction effort

They're also going to need electricity from elsewhere so there'll be increased demand in other areas too.

In this theory i think reconstuction oil demand will be less than running the 3rd biggest economy of the world oil demand (a lot of productions are on hold)

Out of my usdcad trade for +160 pips, and out of my eurusd trade for +110. No reason not to exit after that momo.

I almost shorted GU the same time as EU last night, but I thought it would be too risky to be sided so much towards the dollar. That was pretty dumb - if I see a move I should take it!!

Crazy day. 3 times the average range. Take profit, hold for more. Gaaahhh :D
I know it will come back down. Just this 3 bar thing is throwing me off on exits. If I was trading normally I'd say it's in a supply zone now and think about cutting, I mean 170 pips off a 10 pip stop is not to be sneezed at, don't want to give too much back yeah? :D What a to do?? :lol:
