STOP! Read before you consider to engageHALT! Don't follow this trading idea blindly. You should know that I've a strong bias to long the GBPUSD on the higher timeframe, the daily and weekly chart. I'd engaged in a strategy that I've personally tested for the past 12 years. The ABCD pattern showing up on the 8 range bar provide such an opportunity for me to engage the trade. What is really needed is for the first target to be hit and that would give me the right to shift stops to entry and enjoy the ride. The first 34pips(340usd/lot) of profits is what I need to let that happen and I'll keep my second target open. If you do not plan your trade in advance, don't jump in. If you had not traded ABCD pattern in your life, don't jump in. If you do not have the unwavering bias to long GBPUSD, don't jump in.

It ultimately rests upon the individual trader to discern their potential. As for me, I perceive them as a treasure trove of trading opportunities waiting to be explored. Why, you may ask?

The Oldest Pair I've TradedDo you still remember those unforgettable moments when I first embarked on my trading journey with GBPJPY? It holds a special place in my heart as the very first pair I traded, and I stuck with it through the ups and downs until the spread for GBPJPY skyrocketed to 14 pips for an extended period. Oh, the memories! Presently, GBPJPY finds itself in a captivating sideways movement, offering ample opportunities for those employing the support and resistance trading strategy. It's a perfect scenario for executing the age-old principle of buying low and selling high, or even exploring the realm of harmonic patterns. Personally, I'm eagerly awaiting the completion of a bearish shark pattern at 173.23, signaling a potential shorting opportunity that aligns with my analysis. Alternatively, you can choose to navigate the daily chart's defined zone, indicated by the red resistance line at 172.05 and the blue support line at 167.48. Within this trading range lies an enticing profit potential of 457 pips just waiting to be tapped into. Join me as we delve into the timeless allure of GBPJPY and unleash the vast possibilities it holds for traders like us.

It's Merely a RetracementIn a world where media and forums express bearish sentiments towards USDJPY, my unwavering bullish stance may have caught your attention. While others see a bearish retracement, I invite you to see the bigger picture. Take a glance at the weekly chart on the right, and you'll witness the bearish movement as nothing more than a mere retracement of the monumental US dollar skyrocketing trend I accurately predicted on 14th October 2021. It is this understanding that fuels my anticipation for an imminent buying opportunity. My attention is fixed on the 1-hourly chart on the left, where the market is poised to retest the crucial level of 137.46. This critical juncture presents the ideal scenario for a potential buying opportunity, perfectly aligning with the formation of a Bullish Bat Pattern. While others succumb to pessimism, I see the hidden potential for USDJPY to surge once again.

A Closer LookThe Intriguing Factors That Have Sustained My Interest in This Promising Buying Opportunity When it comes to GBPUSD, my sights are set firmly on one direction: buying opportunities. The stage is set for a potentially lucrative trade, and I'm eagerly awaiting the perfect entry point. On the 4-hourly chart, a retest of the trendline (right) holds the key to triggering a buying opportunity. As long as the price remains above the lowest trendline, a breakout could present an ideal entry. Alternatively, a break and close above the high at 1.2483 (also on the 4-hourly chart) could be the signal to jump in. Delving deeper, the 1-hourly chart (left) offers additional scenarios for a potential buying opportunity. A retest of support at 1.2421 or a more significant level at 1.2395 could both serve as triggers for an entry. But why this unwavering persistence? Let's turn our attention to the weekly chart, where a break and close above resistance becomes a compelling catalyst for my bullish stance. Although we remain within the sell zone, I'm already scouting for buying opportunities, anticipating a potential shift in momentum. Now, what if I'm wrong? It's a calculated risk. I understand that hitting stops is a possibility, but I mitigate that risk by ensuring most of my trades have a profit factor of 2. This means I can maintain profitability with a 40% accuracy rate. So, as the GBPUSD landscape unfolds, I remain resolute in my pursuit of buying opportunities, armed with strategic insights and a calculated approach to capitalize on potential gains.

Netflix's Shorting Potential Slipped Away by a Mere Two DaysMissed the Mark: Netflix's Late Entry Foils My Shorting Plan, and Now It's Breaking Bullish Boundaries! Oh, the frustrations of timing!

But hey, that's the nature of trading. Time to swipe left on this missed opportunity and patiently await the next promising setup. That said, the weekly resistance level holds(right).

One last SHOT!!If you have been following, you should know I've been getting into the long position on the AUDCAD to take a ride on the Weekly Chart's 5-0 Pattern. If you aren't familiar with harmonic patterns,it means I'm looking to have a ride on the bullish trade from a mid to long-term perspective. (approx 2mths) There are a couple of attempts, and not all went to loss, it fact I'm pretty profitable with these trading ideas when I didn't get what I want. This is probably the last or the last is near for these trading ideas to work. I'd engaged the bullish bat pattern on the 4-hourly chart and see if it able to take me to my final target for the 5-0 patterns and beyond.

It's NO SECRET, I'm shorting AdidasIt's no secret that I've been looking to short Adidas for weeks before the Bearish Bat Pattern show up. As a trader, I love to wait for the precise price with candlesticks confirmation before engaging my trade; hence I miss the first opportunity. And that's ok! In trading, I have this philosophy that is better to miss a trade than to engage in a trade at a price of disadvantage. So here I am, trading for the past 18 years. At this moment, I'm waiting for the Bearish Shark Pattern to form up on the 8 range bar chart to give me a second chance entry to get on this ride.

Unveiling the Ultimate Trading Setup of the Week: Don't Miss OutAs some of you may recall, I've been seeking a buying opportunity on the AUDCAD for the past few weeks. My motivation for this is the Bullish 5-0 pattern setup that has formed on the Weekly Chart. I've been exploring various avenues to enter into this buying opportunity, and currently, two options are available. Firstly, we can wait for a candlestick pattern trading setup to appear on the Bullish Gartley Pattern for a buying opportunity (left). Alternatively, a Bullish Deep Gartley Pattern on the 8 range bar chart (bottom right) could provide the trading setup for us to engage the trade.

Effortless trade execution: seize the opportunity with easeAs a trader, I prefer to search for trades that display a distinct direction on the higher timeframe and then hone in on that direction on the lower timeframe. However, I understand that some traders prefer to jump on opportunities as they arise. This week, the AUDUSD has presented us with such an opportunity, as the Bullish Shark Pattern trading setup has completed at 0.6637. The next step is to wait for a confirmation of a candlestick pattern on the 4-hourly chart before entering the buy position. This approach provides a clear plan and enables us to make informed decisions based on sound trading principles.

Did you missed this trade? Last Week, I mentioned my plan to await a suitable shorting opportunity on the EURUSD, owing to the retest of resistance with RSI divergence. As anticipated, this move resulted in a total profit of 205 pips (equivalent to 2,050 USD/lot) based on the difference between the opening and closing prices. My strategy for this week remains unchanged, and I am still on the lookout for a new shorting opportunity. At present, I am waiting to initiate a short position at 1.0901 on the 1-hourly chart (left), which represents a key resistance level. Join me as I continue to monitor the market and strive for profitable trades.

The Reason Behind My Strong Inclination to Buy AUDCADIf you have been keeping up with my previous analysis, you would have known that my strong interest in buying the AUDCAD is not a crazy obsession, but a well-informed decision based on market trends and patterns. In fact, if you had engaged in the trade last week, you could have earned a substantial amount of profit, up to 139pips or approximately 1,390 USD per lot . This week, the market will be testing the 5-0 pattern on the 1-hourly chart for the first time, which could potentially provide another opportunity to hop on this bullish trend. By identifying the right confirmation pattern, you could take advantage of the Bullish 5-0 Pattern on the weekly chart and not miss out on this trade once again. Don't underestimate the power of staying informed and being prepared to make strategic moves in the market.

Second Chance to ShortTraders who missed out on the previous shorting opportunity may have a second chance at hand with the potential setup of Type2 Bearish Shark and Type2 Bearish Deep Gartley pattern in the market. However, it is important to note that one of the downsides of Type2 setup is its unpredictability, and it may not always work. To mitigate the risk, it is crucial to exercise patience and wait for a candlestick pattern confirmation before engaging in the trade. Rushing into the market aggressively without proper confirmation could lead to unwanted consequences.

How to Trade the Dollar Both WaysUS Dollar has been in focus recently due to several factors such as debt limit concerns and bank failures. However, my analysis indicates that the Dollar is still bullish and I'm looking for a buying opportunity at 133.75, provided that the support level holds. For those who are seeking shorting opportunities, the red trendline could be a potential entry point. As long as the structure remains unbroken, a shorting trade could be considered, with the first target at 133.75. Whether you're bullish or bearish on the Dollar, there are opportunities to trade it both ways. Stay tuned for further updates

Bullish, Planning to Buy & HoldDespite being within the sell zone on the weekly chart, there has been a clear break and close above the previous structure. This has led me to adopt a bullish stance on the mid to long-term outlook and I'm currently waiting for a buying opportunity on the 1-hourly chart. The buying opportunity may arise either at the trendline, if the candle touches it but doesn't break and close below it, or at the support level of 1.2556, which could provide another potential entry point for a long position. Stay alert for these potential opportunities to capitalize on the market's movement.

Taking an Aggressive Approach for Extended TargetsAfter a considerable wait, the bullish bat pattern has finally been completed, indicating a potential buying opportunity for traders. However, conservative traders may want to wait for the candlestick to close at 1.2463 before entering the trade. On the other hand, I took a more aggressive approach and entered the trade today, given the presence of two extended targets on the GBPUSD trade. It will be interesting to see how this trade progresses, and I have placed a safe house at the traditional first target of the Bat Pattern to manage my risk effectively.
