We ended the month and the halfway point of the year with a surge in the European block and the CAD, NZDCHF* becomes our newest Top Trade, Two previous TOP Trades NZDUSD hit +331 pips while USDCAD is seeing a deep two day pullback likely taking most of us out of that trade
Yes, I believe in the fact that you always need to trust the trend and trade with the trend. Trend is your friend is a well said truth by a wise trader. As a newbie, it is a sin to trade against the trend as it can put you in a huge loss which would become difficult for you to recover. Thanks!
Thanks ikdenk for your rankings, this holiday in the middle of the week has my schedule all messed up
Anyway here is my ranking for end of day yesterday, and Yes we now have long EURNZD as our top trade, short EURNZD was our top trade just 3 weeks ago and that was the worse trade of the year as it revered the very next day. We need to be cautious about jumping into trades when the trend is actually contracting. This is why I say my SW rankings can be used as a foundation for your trading plan, but should not be used as a stand-alone system
EURUSD has caught my eye again, after a 1000 pip selloff it does look like it has found strong support at 1.1500 a move higher from here looks likely. First target is 1.2000 if price fails here then you will have the right shoulder of a H&S top that could send price below 1.1500 but if we get through 1.2000 then 1.2500 becomes our next target
D what up. I agree, but I would hazard that there will be some more consolidation and volatility in the shorter term. Good for those of us who eat small rodents.
Consolidation and rotation are what this chart is telling me, We see the European sector gaining strength as the risk on trade is back in play which should take USD and JPY down to the 8th and 7th spot. Blindly taking a 1 and 8 trade here might not be advisible. When I place a strong week trade I like to see the two currencies going in opposite directions, we don’t have that with EURNZD,
it was a bit surprising today to see the USD jump back up, that did not help my EURUSD trade, we still have a very tight consolidation with a logjam in the middle
Yen makes all the way down to the 8th spot for just the second time this year and the first since January, Yen is still strongest year to date so don’t be surprised if Yen weakness is short lived
Pullback in EURNZD is running out of steam, might be time to look for an entry on long EURNZD
