NZDUSD Short

Pair: NZD/USD

Timeframe: 1-hour

Chart:


Trade Rationale:

I expect today’s NFP to be a volatile event but overall dollar bullish. The actual figures will probably surprise to the upside since it’s campaign period in the US. I’m bearish on the Kiwi because their growth has been below forecast lately.

There’s a potential retracement on the 1-hour chart to the 61.8% Fib which is in line with former support. I’ll short around .8275 with a stop at .8325. I’ll be aiming for the recent lows around .8175.

Entry: .8275

Stop loss: .8235

Target: .8175

Reward-to-risk ratio: 2-to-1

Nicely done littlebopip,

The price went down exactly as advertised.
I did notice that your entry was too high to have entered the trade, did you still get in by chance?
Just curious.
