The Euro has been grinding its way up riding on CAD weakness. Right now tho we have a pullback in progress that might try to test/break the channel. Will keep an eye on this one to re-enter long if I can get a decent price. This pair is very easy to trade based upon the daily sentiment and EURCAD strenght/weakness and vice versa.
GOOD EXAMPLE ON WHY YOU SHOULD TRY TO FIND AND TRADE THE WEAKEST OF THE WEAK. SEE HOW THE SELLING PRESSURE HAVE BEEN PRETTY CONSISTENT ON EURUSD. THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY EURUSD BULL RALLY TO SPEAK OF ANYWAYS. BUT ALSO SEE THE STEADY CLIMB THE EURO HAS MADE AGAINST THE NZD DESPITE ITS OWN WEAKNESS. THE WEAKEST-OF-THE-WEAK IS ALWAYS THE EASIEST TO TRADE.
AS THE USDOLLAR INDEX AND EURUSD CLOSED LAST WEEK AT INTERESTING LEVELS - THEN ONE MIGHT AS WELL PREPARE FOR TRADING OPTIONS ON MORE MAJOR PAIRS. EURJPY SHOWS CLEAR LEVELS TO WATCH AND OPTIONS TO TRADE AS WELL - NO MATTER HOW NEXT WEEK UNFOLDS WE WILL HAVE OUR PLAN READY.
THE DOLLAR HAS REACHED A VERY INTERESTING LEVEL. IF IT MANAGE TO BREAK THE SUPPLY ZONE JUST ABOVE IT THEN NEXT TARGET IS 12200 AND WE WILL SEE A GOOD SQUEEZE ON MANY MAJORS. IF NOT, THEN YOU KNOW WHAT TO BUY
Price at lower key level within the range again and should offer a good long trade shortly.. The Bears might still try to push the price a little bit lower - so wait for a clear reversal pattern before going long. Dont forget to trade correlating Euro crosses to maximize your daily returns. see mataf.net if you need more info.

TRADING SMART - ADVISE No. 5 WHY A MOVING AVERAGE IS THE ONLY INDICATOR YOU NEED. MANY NEW TRADERS HAVE NO CLUE IF THEY SHOULD BUY OR SELL WHEN LOOKING AT A PAIR.

Be patient, Sniper trade and time your entry (Sit on your hands as we do) The Sterling will re-visit the buy zone below and it will then provide a good price to go long up to target. See levels on the chart. Not exact but good enough. Dont forget to give us your thumbs up if you agree and subscribe for updates.
Just a heads up! Remember its earnings season that means that the stock market carries more importance than the US Dollar index ! and the stock market and USDX cant both rally at the same time (and if it does then something is dodgy so stay clear for a few and let it settle) If the earnings reports are good overall then we should see the Dollar weaken...
The weekly chart shows clear intent for the price to break higher. But not just yet..wait for it and play the range zone on the Daily and 60 min while you wait.
Right now we have a clear bullish momentum, but based upon the larger swing count then we await to see a deeper pullback as well. One only need to place wide stops to trade EURUSD both long and short and both trades will win at this point. It is just a matter of time to hit both target zones. Flip a coin for being a Bull or a Bear. We trade the EURUSD on the...
