BOC rate hike to be catalyst on EURCAD? Short

Euro Fx/Canadian DollarFXCM

Description

Potential downside on EURCAD with CAD news coming up in 20 minutes as a catalyst? A double top might be forming.. Let's see what CAD news present to us

Trade active

I took a short some 12 hours ago, have shifted my stop to profit so this trade is risk free.

Comment

Double spike on this pair. Idea will only be invalid IF price closes above trendline on H4.
SL @ 1.5295, TP @ 1.4818, a good 1:5 risk to reward (as of current market price)

Comment

Sorry, a 1:10 risk to reward. You can trail your stop if price goes according to analysis and slowly close positions. I personally like to open 3 different positions. So if you are intending on trading 1.0 lot, you could perhaps split them into 0.3 lot, 0.3 lot and 0.4 lot

Comment

My position got closed out due to the sudden spike up. Resulted in a loss despite putting SL to profit. Re-entered again with a short but things aren't looking good. Time will tell.

Trade closed manually

Closed in loss. Doesn't look good and BOC press conference sounding dovish.

Trade active

Re-entered. Price looks like it has bounced off trendline. Tricky pair. SL & TP as mentioned previously

Comment

We can see that price has tested upper end of trendline many times over the past week. The more times it tests and fails to break, the stronger the resistance is. Will we finally get the move down we wanted? I'm hoping so in this coming week!
