An inverse head-and-shoulders pattern has formed on the FTSE, with a projection of around 200 points, which would pull it towards the 6900 handle. This leads me to believe that market makers are looking to clear out the stops that will be resting above the 'double top' before any further move down in the index. 6921 is the 70.5 OTE fib retracement from the 10th...
Hey gang, first of all thank you for all of the great comments on yesterday's youtube video "How Do Know If My Trading Strategy Is Failing" (www.youtube.com) You guys said that you've learned a lot and please continue to let me know exactly what that was in the comments section on Youtube. Today I've got bearish cypher patterns on both EURJPY and EURAUD on my...
With the following noted a long scenario appears to be in play: - bullish reversal bar (near resemblance to bullish pin bar/low test bar) - resistance becomes support (at ~2.3260 which stands out as a weekly level dating back to November 2009 ) - retest of 20 ema and close above - trend line support (third touch) - Rejection of 0.618 Fibonacci level and 50%...
Plain and simple 2618 setup. Stops below 123. Target 1 at 123.750, take half off and lock in Breakeven. Target 2 at 123.970.
Looking at the following to sell EUR/USD: - inside bar - 50 ema rejection - resistance at @1.1100 - Fibonacci cluster: - 0.786 Fibonacci level rejection from previous swing high to swing low and closes below - 50% retracement between first swing high at the top of the trend line and closes below - trend line rejection - Stochastic and RSI convergence entry -...
I couldn’t have asked for a better start to this trading week. Unlike last week everything I’ve touched has turned to gold giving me a very nice cushion going into my first real day of active trading. There is a lot on my radar today including the EURJPY, USDJPY, USDCAD, NZDUSD & EURAUD, but I wanted to share my EURUSD idea with you guys since we’ve been tracking...
Wave 4 has met a high probability reversal level at the confluence between a .382 retrace of wave 3 and the price zone of the previous degree fourth wave. Wave 1 time to completion provides a forecast for wave 5 completion time. Price range of wave 1 as an extension from current levels coincides with 1.272 extension of wave 3 and provides a target for fifth wave...
Happy Friday traders! A lot of my radar today but I wanted to focus on the EURUSD since I know that’s a pair that many of you are tracking especially those of you who accepted my challenge from yesterday’s YouTube video. ( www.youtube.com ) Personally I’m still bullish from the Gartley pattern earlier this week, but if I weren’t I’d be all over the bull gartley...
Although I don’t day trade on Monday’s I have a handful of pairs on my radar for my swing trading portfolio. Multiple patterns on the EURUSD, a few setups on USDJPY, NZDUSD and of course the chart above on EURAUD. We were watching this pair last week for the bullish breakout and now that we’ve gotten it, the next chance to hop on would be at a pullback. Looking...
(VIDEO LINK: www.youtube.com )GBPAUD has been a pair that I’ve swung and missed at all week with 2 losing trades & a trade that came half way to targets before getting stopped out for breakeven. The majority of the week has been focused around this same structure level & now that price action is trading below it, I may have my chance at a short opportunity. As...
I have a handful of trades on my radar today but I wanted to concentrate on the GBPUSD this morning because of the multiple opportunities. The main trade that I’m looking for is the Bearish trend continuation setup. This market has clearly broken structure to the downside and if we get relief we have an excellent structure level to predict where our next pullback...
I was supposed to be following the EURUSD this entire week, but if you look at the chart there is just absolutely nothing new going on. So instead of giving you a chart that simply read “see yesterday’s post” I thought I’d look at another pair that has been on my radar. One of my clients and I were discussing the situation on GBPJPY last night looking for a...
Channel formed on 4h and 1d charts. Wait for possible retracement before triangle breaks upwards towards the Weekly resistance.
Just looking at the last leg down and the pull back on the DAX and I noticed the lovely way the Fibonacci levels have been respected. Current at the 38.2 level. What will we see tomorrow, a continuation up to the 61.8 @11500 or thereabouts? Teh 73 level is something I keep in mind for stop hunters.
About a month ago, I published the chart of EURUSD suggesting that shorting opportunity was available as a retracement in new bullish cycle. We indeed have a zigzag retracement which was quite impressive and it did retrace 61.8%. Ordinarily that would be sufficient and we would have expected a new impulsive cycle up. However, in looking at the zigzag with it low...
After creating new structure highs last week, the USDJPY is now putting in an outside return back into previous structure setting up a decent looking trend continuation opportunity. I yet have a reason to get long per my rules of engagement, but I will certainly be keeping a very close eye on this setup as the risk to reward is a no brainer for me with stops...
Seeing today's high test bar close rejecting a past level acting as both support and resistance within close proximity of a Fibonacci cluster (38.2% and 50%) drawn from two previous swing/cycle highs and rejecting the falling trend line for a third time highlights this end of day set up as a potential selling opportunity. Recent lower highs and lower lows...
Idea is based on Elliott Wave theory and Fibonacci ratio's. The rationale behind this setup is shown on the chart. Good Luck
