AUDJPY Short: Selling the Zig-Zag Short

Australian Dollar/Japanese YenFXCM

Description

This pair has completed a descending triangle and has exhibited a strong breakout to the up-side. I want to be bullish in the long term after this correction. However, this correction is very possibly going to be sharp to the downside to satisfy the Elliott Wave rule of alternation since we saw a sideways correction in wave-2. Also, the previous red candle was a sharp impulse. I want to follow that with a SL above its root. Cheers

Perfect drop - moving stop to breakeven. Cheers

I set a sell stop below last 15m candle. If stopped out at break even, this one is cancelled.

The breakout line you drew only goes through two points

Yes thanks - that's right - a triangle top. I will remain in the trade until I seea bullish impulse on the shorter TF.

I see price is still within a range, It could go even further below the support line to reach the lower boundary of the range, good luck
