Thanksgiving may prove for subdued trading all this week.
On Bloomberg a mention that some traders are abandoning gold for bitcoin, some using bitcoin for doomsday scenario insurance instead of gold.

Long Euro 1.1838, Aussie .7603, Nzd .6856. If there's any trend here, it's dollar weakness past few days. I'm going with that. Plus, it's not really trending right now, more oscillating. Which should mean buy weakness, sell strength on shorter TF.

Out of Euro 1.1857-58.

Since large speculators are selling Dollar, it will be observed while trading almost all pairs

Closed out the rest--Aussie, Nzd way early at a small loss. Just couldn't hold it any longer. Then, of course, the ramp up.

Aussie might take reversal soon since it's so near to it's daily key support at 0.748ish. But it should make a pullback to min 0.752 and make a shootdown. Imho, it will happen either in London or NY today.

Pound's direction is still unclear. It could take a reversal at 1.335 or could drop further to 1.325...it all depends on where it make a pullback to. If it makes a pullback to 1.345, imho, it will take a reversal there and resume bull again

DXY broke through the resistance level last week, so now it's bullish that will affect all other pairs

Pound is bearish....may continue until UK CPI. Hope the pound reach 1.325 before the data. Holding a short at 1.335 sl at today's high (+ spread difference)
