XLF - Falling wedge breakout buying opportunity
Updated
**Market Structure**
-A falling wedge has broken
-Due to the price rise going into the wedge as well as the downward sloping nature of this wedge, that gives is a solidly bullish bias
-The overall markets have been bullish and we could see the tide lifting all ships higher
**Trading Tips**
-A bearish pinbar has formed on the daily so we may see price drop lower in the near term
-I expect the overall bullish picture to stay intact, and so any push lower may be met with strong buying
-If price does drop lower to retest the upper channel of the falling wedge, using this price action information (bullish trend, bullish pattern breakout), it may create a high probably buying opportunity
**Trading Ideas**
-This ETF could be purchased outright right now for a decent risk/reward setup
-If you are willing to wait and see if price falls it may offer a better entry point, at the risk of missing the trade if it doesn't fall
-The price target is the peak of the pattern @ $30 so different ways to get long this trade are to buy the stock outright, create a synthetic long position buy selling a put and buying a call at the same strike(about 1:5 leverage), or selling a vertical put spread for a defined risk trade

Note
Sold a synthetic long stock split strike. This creates a synthetic long position by selling a put and buying a call, but the put strike was sold at 28 and the call was bought at 28. This means the potential loss if price fell to 27 is small, at the expense of giving up a little bit of upside profit. My risk reward is around 1 to 4, for every dollar risked I stand to make 4.Trade active
