FX Weekly ranking and rating Week 5 Updated

FX Weekly Ranking and Rating Wk05 / Sunday 1 February 2015

Besides the Ranking and Rating list provided here I will also prepare this weekend the Weekly Currency Score list which will support my analysis for trading in the coming week which is then followed by my Review on the Hybrid Grid strategy.

Because of the high presence of the CHF pairs in the Top 10 it is better to use the Top 15 in the coming period. All the CHF pairs will be ignored for trading until the daily chart starts to show useful data. When looking at the Top 15 in the Weekly Ranking and Rating list we can see that for the coming week the following stronger currencies are well represented for going long: CHF(6x), USD(4x) and the GBP(3x). The CAD(5x) is clearly the weaker currency in the list followed by the EUR(4x) and the AUD(3x).

A nice combination for coming week may be e.g:

[ul]
[li]USD/CAD with the GBP/AUD[/li][li]GBP/CAD with the AUD/USD[/li][li]AUD/USD with the EUR/GBP[/li][li]EUR/USD with the GBP/CAD[/li][/ul]

These are just a few examples and many other combinations are possible. The mentioned pair combinations can be traded at the same time according to the rules of the FxTaTrader strategy because these are all different currencies. By not trading the same currency in the same direction more than once you may have better chances with lower risk.

Last week (pending) orders were placed for the NZD/CAD and the AUD/USD. More details on the (possible) traded pairs will be provided in my strategy article that will also be published this weekend. The possible positions for coming week for the strategy will then also be described.

FxTaTrader Forex weekly ranking and rating list Week 05 / Sunday 01-Feb-2015

Analysis based on TA charts for all the major currency pairs. Good luck to all. No advice, just info. Every week the Forex ranking rating list will be prepared in the weekend. All the relevant Time Frames will be analyzed and the ATR and Pip value will be set.
There will be 2 updates during the week on Tuesday and Wednesday. The Daily and 4 Hour chart will then be analyzed and updated.
This makes that there will be no more than 48 trading hours between each update. This is a reasonable period when considering that the smallest time frame used is the 4 hours, meaning 12 price bars/candlesticks.


The FxTaTrader Weekly Forex ranking and rating list is meaningful data for my Weekly FxTaTrader strategy. Besides this list I also use the Weekly Currency Score which is available once a week on this blog together with my weekly analysis on my Strategy.

AUD/USD: Short
One short position with a traling stop is still open since last week. See for more information my weekly reviews on my strategy pubished in the last 2 weeks. The AUD is at the moment the weakest currency with a score of 1 and the USD is a stronger currency with a score of 7. See for more information about the score at the start of the week my weekend article: Weekly Currency Score Wk05

Possible positions for this week
The EUR/GBP looks interesting for going short but more confirmation is needed to conclude that the current pull back has come to an end. The pair is now within the Weekly Bollinger Band and looks interesting also for that reason because it is no more oversold. The currency score of the EUR (3) and the GBP (6) did not change since the start of the week and remains interesting also.

The currency score of the EUR (2) and the GBP (6) changed for the EUR going down 1 point compared to last weekend.
