Not so long ago I posted an idea based on this pair and a lot has happened since then.
Here we can clearly see that the descending channel has fully formed and the 6 touches on our channel's support and resistance lines respectively, further confirm the trend. The main question is: will the trend continue or are we in for a breakout above? Well, I personally hope that this channel resistance will hold.

Entering a trade on the third touch of a trendline for confirmation is a good concept to employ. The idea behind this three touch approach is that if you just connect two points on a chart, well, any two random points can be connected with a straight line and they may or may not be meaningful relative to the trade. However, if three points on a chart can be connected with a straight line, now we have something that can be used in our trading analysis.
Good luck and
Trade active:
I can see a potential Head & Shoulders pattern and if it persists, we might have to close our trade and re-enter into a long position.
But since the price closed below our channel resistance and below our area of interest, we might still be safe for now.
I will post an update on this trade shortly.
Comment:
More than anything, I would appreciate it if you guys could comment on my ideas. I'm not after 'likes' or anything like that, but comments and constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated.
