Thinking of squaring my positions given the current Syria situation

I’m currently in long for AUD/JPY, GBP/NZD, and AUD/NZD

Thinking of squaring out my positions before Monday as I think it will be a rough time…

What do you guys think? Plenty of opinions on hedging here but not much on squaring (going short on all my longs) given the uncertainty when the markets open on Monday.

Does your broker allow you to trade during the weekend?

Nope :neutral_face: not on the pair’s I’m in at the moment. I had a sell stop on AUD/JPY that triggered early Saturday morning but the other two I can’t.

I have a CommSec and nabtrade account I could try to use put options​ to the same effect, but haven’t used them much not sure if they allow weekends either

Given the US missile strikes occurred before the Friday trading sessions in both London and New York, why didn’t you react on Friday?

Odds are currently that whatever a given market did on Friday it will do more of the same on Monday.

I did react with a sell stop on my AUD/JPY long position

I’m talking about the subsequent reaction from Russia which occurred after the market closed
