The PRZ zone is only a guideline of where we will be paying attention for trade setups and opportunity's.

Bearish Cypher
Bracketing the market with advanced patternsEur/Jpy has a some good opportunities setting up for those advanced pattern trader out there. You have a bearish cypher pattern that will complete at 128.446. Or the Bullish Gartley pattern which will complete at 126.863. Both are great opportunities. Cyphers have an excellent win rate, while this Gartley has an awesome risk to reward ratio since the A-B leg is so deep.
Crude Oil WTI 60min Trend Continuation & Bear CypherStill looking to sell Rallies in Crude. I'm looking for a deep retracement back to $40.00 level. $40 is a key level for Crude if we want to maintain a Bearish view on the market.
For all of you that use Combined Technical Scoring System (CTS) to help evaluate trades, we are already at a 7. It will more than likely get a higher score as it comes time to enter.
Reasons for Entry @ $40.00
1. Bear Cypher - Cypher Completes right at the $40 level.
2. Major Structure - We have Major Structure at the $40 level with multiple tests of it on the way down. So we can assume that it will act as Resistance on the way up.
3. Fib Inversion Trade - Take a Fib Inversion off the last pullback down at the lows and looking to sell the 1.618% Fib Extension
$EURUSD: "Structured Consolidation" Breeds Pattern OpportunityIt's been a very slow week for Jason Stapleton & the Trend Continuation side of the Syndicate, yet a very busy week for those who trade advanced patterns.
The majority of advanced patterns are formed when the market is in what we like to call "Structured Consolidation" and this week more than a handful of the pairs in my portfolio are doing so.
I'm currently short the $EURUSD on the bearish Cypher and if everything plays out the way I'd like, then I'll also be collecting profits and getting long at the potential bullish one in green (assuming it stays valid).
It's Thursday so that means my FOREX WEEKEND REVIEW video will be coming out on YouTube. Make sure that your a SUBSCRIBER that way you'll be the first to know when it's released.

Do You Have The Balls To Short USDCAD???Only a brave man would short the USDCAD right now but hey a cypher is a cypher. I'm already long on a trend continuation trade on this pair so I'm gonna be staying out of this one but if you have the balls to short what i consider to be a very bullish market then go for it. Caution though: RSI is not yet oversold and there's a strong bullish momentum.

EURUSD : late night bear Cypher forming on the hourly Bearish Cypher pattern @ 1.09225
Target 1 1.08933
Target 2 108742
Stops 1.09556 (Based off of a 1.13 fib inversion from the C to X leg)
In addition to that, we have other reasons for entry. Not only does the pattern complete in an area where three major resistance levels coalesce (as dictated by the four hour), the overall leg of the move down has a .618 retrace in that same congestive area where the pattern completes.
Note the B to C leg pattern and how the pattern is not drawn from the wick down there in this particular instance. That is because according to rules governing cyphers, that actually is a 1.618 extension. However, the pattern is allowed to wick down there, provided it closes at or above the 1.414 which it did in this instance.
I predict we will wick to the completion point of the pattern, as price will test this strong area and ultimately get rejected downwards. This pattern has an ugly risk/reward profile, so plan accordingly....

SIRIUS/XM Holdings, reasons to get short....
FUNDAMENTALS
Arguably, satellite radio will be a phased out technology in the coming years. What the blackberry has been to communication devices, satellite radio will soon find itself in the dustbin of consumer products. Ever wonder why the SEC had such little problem with the Sirius/XM merger in the first place? The marriage of these two companies was figuratively monopolistic in the sense that they are the only game in town when it comes to SATELLITE RADIO, but there are so many other products it has it contend with.... It has to withstand a withering barrage against other products and services, such as youtube with bluetooth smartphone technology, Pandora, and the like. Fewer and fewer vehicle manufacturers are offering that new Sirius/XM radio pre-installed as you roll off the lot. Moreover, more consumers will not go through the headache of buying, installing, and subscribing to the service when these items simply aren't already in the car. I'm also confident that many without a vehicle are simply disinterested in buying their portable devices. Simply put, it's worn off.
But.... what's propping up this company for so long? Enter the Howard Stern Show. Mr. Stern himself has been pulling further back and trying to market himself as a more family friendly person/elder statesman of radio. Case in point, the scaling back of 5 days of shows a week to 3 days a week, the elimination of his news department, and his involvement in the mainstream primetime show, "America's Got Talent.". Many hardcore Stern fans that have been with him since his peak in the 1990s have noticed a shift in his personality and show format that they find wholly unappealing, and has led to an online firestorm following an extended segment where he tried to adopt kittens out live on the air.
What's more is that Stern's contract is up this month. Even with a renewal of Mr. Stern's contract for a few more years, his dwindling involvement even as his potential employment continues will not signal any kind of surge in this stock's price. We see price approaching a resistance level around the $4.16 area, a place it has not traveled to since of October of 2013, but more on the technicals later. Point is, even a Stern re-sign isn't going to help the stock's price bust through this level.
I assert that the Stern Show is the only thing propping up this company. But as Mr. Stern makes awkward attempts to re-brand himself incongruent with his overall image, together with his dwindling involvement and resources devoted to his show, he continues to alienate even the most die-hard fans that support Sirius XM. The technology that competes with Sirius XM is becoming more lean and abundant and the show can only keep this company on life support for so long.....time to short. Long term, this stock WILL tank.
I invite anyone working for the Stern organization or Sirius/XM to contact me personally to help consult on how to right the ship here so their stock price's decline will not be as calamitous.
TECHNICALS
As previously mentioned, we are approaching a resistance level around the $4.16 level, a place that price action hasn't traveled to since October of 2013. Long term, this stock WILL tank, .For our swing trading friends, we see two opportunities associated with this resistance level. There is a Cypher pattern nearing completion there (red) and a bearish Gartley pattern starting to form in the vicinity. The fall of the price will not be without retracements, as evidenced by the bullish Cypher pattern that is out on the daily. The bearish advanced patterns mentioned here are a great way to get in on the short, but just be aware that this stock's price has been banging around a channel between $3.98 and $4.16.
