USDCAD: Eyes on A Buying Opportunity  Long

U.S. Dollar/Canadian DollarFXCM

Description

As Canada continues to show strength, I'll be looking for a buying opportunity in the zones identified on the chart above. As of now, I have no reason to put any orders in, but I'll be keeping a close eye on the markets as the "real" trading week begins today.

New wise it'll be an interesting week for this pair as we have a handful of FED members speaking along with a FOMC Meeting minutes release as well this Tuesday. On Tuesday the Bank of Canada will also have a Rate Statement released prior to the FOMC.

I know this seems like a broad idea as of now but this is how I start my week, by constructing broad analysis and biases on the higher time frames, then drilling down to the lower ones during the week in order to find opportunities.

I appreciate all of the support hear on Trading view. Passing the 1 million views mark was pretty cool and I love that you guys have kept it positive and made this a place that I actually enjoy sharing to when I have the time.

FOMC, BOC & Oil news events mentioned above are on Wednesday not Tuesday. (I never really know what day it is)

wouldn't it be a cypher if it drop till 78.6-88.6% of fibo?
Akil_Stokes
@SimonAlex98081, Yes, if price did drop to the 78.6 then that would give us a bullish Cypher

@Akil_Stokes, thanks..akil..we have a potential long trade setup then :)

@SimonAlex98081, Correct,

Based of your chart above, what are your thought about moving the Fibo 100% forward (i.e., 1.32223 @ 2017-04-13)? You can see the price bouncing on the 50% 3 days in a row, with an uptrend confirmation candle on the 4th day. I just thought that the starting trend on the Fibo was too far back. I would appreciate your comments.

@DesertRider, Thanks, I have a Fibonacci retracement drawn from that level as well on my real chart, looks like I just left it off of this one. So yes, I certainly agree with drawing one from that level since that is our most recent swing
