Carrytrade

Wherever you break, I gotta take short! (BGM: Yesterday once more) This pair is a very good vehicle for carry trade, but in terms of carry trade, of course we still need stop loss and appropriate profit taking. "Every trade should have an entry and an out" If carry trade works, we can earn interest at the same time; if it fails, the interests could recover some of the risk. That's totally different from long Lira without stop loss!! Here we got this inside day and inside week! I would very love to take the breakdown short! Even if it breaks to the upside, I would also pay attention to the 5.44 spot supply zone short. In short, wherever the inside day breaks, only want to take the short!! Let's see how it goes! -- By far my best trade in TradingView is also this pair lol.

CARRY TRADE CYCLES Carry Trade is the one of the most stylish trading system.Example on 1 years : UK interest rates = 0,74 Turkey interest rates = 23 If i lend money with GBP and if i invest in Turkey 2Y bonds my real income is : 23 - 0,74 = 22,26 (%) (yearly) Because of i invested with hot money , Turkish lira will get high and i can buy more Pounds if i want to get interest yield again. If im a good trader or a investment bank , my risk is so so low . Otherwise i can buy a lot of pounds with strong Turkish Lira and get high interest rate when i sell my Turkish lira, Turkish lira gets cheap and this time i can get a lot of Turkish lira again. This cycle is so profitable and suitable for community trading psychology. So carry traders transform market makers and every movements have affect for market making and it is more profitable and secure. But for an English invester, if Turkish economy get worse, even Turkish lira getting cheap and interests are not incresing or devaluations like Turkish lira got a few days ago or interests rates in dangerous places (%23 - %25 means %100 ROE in 4 years) everything getting more worse with double affect, fiat and interest rates opposite correlation lost and everything getting so much risky. This is an example on historical data. I choosed Pound because UK's interest rates are more lower than USA.This idea will show why last year :GBPTRY drops a lot and this year is different. Let's see Turkish Lira's different between market conditions conveinent for Carry Trading or opposite.Best regards.

EURTRY Carry Trade opportunityThere is a big opportunity to make profits using carry trading strategy. If you open short position on EURTRY and hold it for a year, you will gain 15.9% on swaps.(usd account) Example: short position eurtry. volume 100k - 1 standard lot. 49.67$ will be paid to your account every time you hold your position overnight. (3 times over weekend). In one year you will gain 18130$ on swaps. If you use leverage 1:20. you will gain 218% on your margin (5700$). Problems with trading EURTRY: 1) huge spread between ask and bid price. 2) market condition. there is a big challenge to find selling point now. What is 'Carry Trade' Carry trade is a trading strategy that involves borrowing at a low interest rate and investing in an asset that provides a higher rate of return. A carry trade is typically based on borrowing in a low-interest rate currency and converting the borrowed amount into another currency, with proceeds placed on deposit in the second currency if it offers a higher rate of interest or deploying proceeds into assets – such as stocks, commodities, bonds, or real estate – that are denominated in the second currency. - Investopedia article

AUDJPY - Going Contrarian to News & Media?We have been hearing some negative sentiment in the market, about how the next recession is near and coming... The thing here is you need to realize where you are 'hearing' such news from. Ahem... most of the time, likely from the news or media. The question here is are they really that reliable? Well... based on our analysis (not the AUDJPY of course), we are unlikely going to see the next recession in the coming 6 to 12 months. That being said, if the macro analysis tells us that we are unlikely to see a recession so soon, will we then be transiting back into a risk-on environment? If that's the case, then the analysis here on AUDJPY will be good opportunity as a potential carry trade :) Disclaimer - this is not a trade recommendation. Ensure you have proper trading and risk management plan before you execute any trades.

My Next Long Term Position TRYJPY LongI am slowly building a big long position in TRY/JPY pair. Turkish Lira is quite under-valuated at these levels and despite the recent strength of Japanese Yen I think in the long run JPY will weaken across the board. This is a carry trade position which will bring lot of interest while running. At 8.5% current interest rate of Turkish Lira outperform almost all peers in the world and with inflation and demographics of Turkey slowly going down I think soon we will see a major trend reversal here with significant strengthening of the Lira by more than 10-15%.

USDJPY Between 200MAs and a broken channel April 17-21OANDA:USDJPY just had a breakdown not only breaking the weekly 200MA but also the lower support channel but nothing goes in one direction in the markets so I expect a pullback before another move downwards. The price is currently between the daily and weekly 200MA so I expect sideways action with a slight bullish bias in the short term. It will be Daily Fibonacci: OANDA:USDJPY bounced right at the 50% mark at 108.11 so bulls should have a relief bounce for a few days. 4H Timeframe view: Unless news or events comes that will cause the risk off to end or strengthen the dollar I expect consolidation between the daily 200MA support and the broken lower channel that should act as resistance. Its also possible that there might be a spike upwards till the weekly 200MA but I dont expect it to break as there should be a lot of overhead resistance on that area. I still expect OANDA:USDJPY in the long term especially with its correlations have broken their respective supports reinforcing the trend. Nikkei Daily: US 10-Year Daily: Entry: 109.4-110 Stop: 110.6 Profit: 101-103 Any feedbacks are appreciated!

USDJPY Nothing Goes Down Forever April 3-7 Trading PlanOANDA:USDJPY looks like its bouncing back up after a severe downmove forming a nice channel. 4H Timeframe View: It was able to pullback and even retest the 20MA in the 4H timeframe so it will be great if it touches the 50MA(yellow line) and hold above it for a confirmation of the short term uptrend. Long: 111.342 Stop: 111 It might still pullback to test the 50MA on the 4H so its better to be safe to put the stop a few pips just below it Target 1: 112.9 The 20DMA/50DMA even the 4H 200MA are converging on this area so its reasonable that it might have difficulties breaking through this level so I might take partial profits on this area just in case Target 2: 113.8 If it doesn't get rejected on the level with a cluster of MAs then the next logical target will be the upper channel Any feedbacks are appreciated!

WTI Voodoo & the Dollar Carry Trade.My short at Friday's close...my currency wave indicates that oil is over bought. and has been since Christmas. COT reports shows new money (retail), MM, Chinese, etc.. are all long, at +seven to one (7/1), with record net positions. Both the timing and direction of the dxy/oil value wave, confirms this is a carry trade. Cheap money leveraged longs.. with little or no hedges. That side the boat is full... too full for me. The range from spikes to dump tells me oil is only really being supported by the dollar. But there are limits to this action, and ultimately higher dollar hurts wti. Imo, we are at or near that level now. Fundamentals, why mention them.. bottom line, too much oil. Way too much. Lastly, Sine wave shows a target on 3/3/17 of 49.15 And if none of this voodoo helps .. then simply, Short 53.89 with SL of 54.43, and moving Target of 1hr./MA100 or lower. Good Luck.

USDJPY: Critical level testedUSDJPY has hit the previous monthly uptrend mode, and is currently stuck inside this zone. It would be a colossal feat, for Yen bulls to drive the pair under this key level, so I will watch it with keen eyes during this week. I'll update the post with intraday and daily/weekly charts as needed. It would give us clues about the future of the S&P500 and Nikkei, if we see the smart money players start to accumulate long positions again. After Monday's close, I'll add a 'Brexit key level' to the chart in an update, and will monitor price action closely from here onwards. I labeled a monthly downtrend signal, as per the 'time at mode' method, comprised of 7 months worth, and a price target that was exceeded already. There are 2 bars left for this decline to potentially end, and send USDJPY back up to the highs, unless yen bulls are strong enough to push the pair below support. Keep your eyes wide open, this is a really significant level, and from here we might get a terrific trading opportunity once the direction is clear, wether the downtrend ends or it continues further down to the 2011 lows.

USDSEK: At an ideal level to go longThis is a potentially nice long term position trade setup. Once this pair closes and forms a low above 8.50, it will be extremely likely to see continuation to eventually reach the target on chart or even higher. Fundamentals for Sweden are not looking good currently, and the yield in this pair might be a big driver for this uptrend. Pairing the Swedish Krona with other high yielding currencies might prove specially rewarding for long term traders (AUDSEK, NOKSEK, CNHSEK).

The Swiss franc *might* go lower, but only so farThe Swiss Franc has always been one of my favourite currencies to trade because it abides by support and resistance lines... except when the SNB intervenes.... ouch that one hurt. In any case, what you are seeing here are arrows point up from very strong resistance lines stretching back several months. The A arrow points up from the weakest support, the second arrow points up from declining support and the I arrow points up from monthly support. Either way, the USDCHF will bounce up from one of these lines, though as a caveat, a break below and I'd be closing off all your CHF positions. RSI and CCI are overbought, a confirmation from the MACD would confirm buying opportunity. Selling CHF also pays overnight premium.

Potential For a Bullish Monthly TrendThe Chart shows the current wave count on NZDUSD. The Wave Count indicates the cycle from Jan 20 lows at 6350 has already completed a few days ago at 6748. At this point there is no proof that the structure turns into a double corrective and we get a renewed leg to the upside, that will only happen on a bullish breach of 6748. The reason the chart is posted, after todays strong momentum to the upside, this could be an area to start initiating a first position, perhaps small, and then looking to add once the double structure is confirmed. There is a bias in this chart (if you've seen some of my other charts) as I'm extremely bearish the USD. Which is the reason why I believe we will have an uptrend in the NZDUSD that is likely to last a few months. Please see the related charts to understand why I'm bearish USD. When the USD is bearish, traders are drawn to the kiwi because of it's attractive carry rate. A breach of B wave lows at 6563 invalidates the setup. Targets will be determined as the wave develops with a min target of 6900. Best entry would be by buy stop above today's highs as momentum has slowed down.
