S&P500 short on savius Slope Strategy counter-trend signalI put a short order here now on Savius signal that the bullish is about to turn (both on 60' and 15' charts) Notice how similar the chart is to 2 days ago. Price also touched the POC of 2695 from 2 days ago. I am keeping a tight 10 ticks Stop Loss because I'm sure the price will try to push up to 2700 and 2704 (prices from S&P December, this SPX chart prices are slightly different because I believe are an average of more contracts, but the charts looks good enough for analysis) but volumes are low and I don't really think it will have the strength to do so. Target is Pivot P. Then S1.

Counter Trend Scalp For October WTI Crude Oil FuturesFollowing Thursday’s moderate retracement, the sky has been the limit for October WTI crude oil futures. Since the traditional New York pit open at 9:00 AM EST, prices have risen more than $.50. The Trade Counter-trend scalps beneath $70.00 are likely to produce positive price action. Sells from $69.92 with an initial stop at $70.01 produce 5-8 quick ticks. This is a counter-trend play, so the risk profile is a bit greater than usual. The goal of the scalp is immediate and positive price action. Be sure to have the stop loss in the queue at $70.01 before the trade is taken.

EURUSD Breaking Bad - Look to Short the next counter-rally EURUSD EUR broke important support at the 1.15088 line on Friday and then collapsed in a near straight line towards the next line of support at 1.13679, after making a low 19 pips above here so far. All these lines on DXY and Gold and here too are weeks old and none of these charts have had to be updated or amended....showing how slooooow most markets are compared to Bitcoin, which needs updating every day and somettimes more. There's a lot to be said for the quiet life. Bitcoin is Formula 1 full-on - or used to be : ( Everything else is so sloooow in comparison. Still believe that Bitcoin provides the best training ground for trading across multiple markets - but they require way more patience usually, that's all. The break on Friday looks like the prelude to bigger a break-down which should take EUR back down to 1.0855 and potentially as far back as 1.0490 through the Autumn/Fall period. In the very near term the nearest support potential lies at 1.1367 and extends down to 1.1316 which should create a counter rally back to the 1.148-1.1508 range at best before it falls away again - it may be quite dramatic when it does. Look to short the counter-rally with stops just above the 1.1532 level by a few pips. Can use the DXY chart as confirmation. TP 1 1.1118 TP2 1.0855 TP3 1.0490 For fastest updates in real-time please see Global Markets link at top left of main page.

EURUSD Counter-Rally to Upper Parallel Before next DeclineineEURUSD 30th May EUR has finally reached the month-long downside target at 1.1558 just in time for the end of the May. It actually exceeded the target by 45 pips before reversing higher and creating the first strong green candles of buying intent the market has seen for months now. But the counter rally is running out of momentum now whilst DXY holds above 94. Initial resistance for EUR lies here at the 1.1676 line and extends to the line above at 1.1731. This range, bounded by the two lines, is likely to prove insurmountable in the very near term - it will need DXY itself to break below 94 to break the upper parallel here - in which case the bears will retreat further here too and it should then rally 90 or so pips higher still to 1.1821 on more bear closing before falling away again. That looks to be best case scenario for EUR from here though. (At the same time DXY should then fall to test the 93.36-93.12 range and then bounce higher again.) So long as 94 holds up on DXY the Euro is likely to remain trapped within the medium term downtrend of April/May and likely to fall away from the upper parallel once more when challenged. But this time around the next sell off from the upper parallel of the larger impulse wave has a reasonable chance of creating a double bottom around the 1.1558-1.1540 range when it does fall away again - so any fresh shorts taken out around current levels need closing down again here. Any subsequent fall below 1.1535 will then be needed to trigger fresh shorts from here back to the 1.1318-1.1287 range.

EURUSD Trying For Break-Out Counter-Rally HereEURUSD Trying For Break-Out Counter-Rally now Using DXY as the confirming signal (please see DXY updates) we've been short EURUSD for some time now, looking for a test of 94.20 on DXY as the likely medium term top for Dollar strength across the pairs. That came yesterday (too busy shorting Bitcoin to notice, sorry for that). But EUR didn't quite make it to the next downside target at 1.1665 here, bouncing away 11 pips higher than really expected, though it did bounce precisely off the lower parallel of the little pattern EUR is now trapped within. Yesterday was mostly bear closing by look of the chart. Today it's more bull buying with a small impulse candle arriving as London opened after an aimless overnight session in far East. It can rally to 1.1756 and then will probably need impetus and follow through from New York to push any higher still. Only once it can get above here should it push back up to the 1.1823 level, presnting a potential long opportunity if we see it develop later. But until we see that evidence present itself EUR is becoming vulnerable to another sell off, though this time it should only come back to the 1.1721 line to begin with and will need US selling to drive it lower still towards the 1.1679-1.1665 range. With the Dollar expected to enter an extended period of consolidation under 94.2 on DXY it's no longer appropriate to be looking for big EUR weakness in the nearterm. However, looking a little further out in time, DXY is expected to rally a further 1% or so from 94.2 to 95.15 and EUR to fall back to 1.1558 eventually before any real change in overall trend is likely on this pair. This update was posted shortly after the DXY companion forecast this morning. It never loaded correctly. Very annoying. Anyway, what was expected above is happening pretty much as it should so far - EUR is about to break higher as DXY unravels under the dynamic from the highs a while longer.

EURUSD: Lower Stop On Any Shorts/Use DXY as Signal ConfirmationEURUSD Update After rallying from the downside target off the 1.1721 line EUR has made it to the near term upside target centred around the 1.1821 line and been met with a barrage of persistant selling from there over the last 6 hours creating a series of rejection spikes above the line. If you shorted from here again lower the stop to 1.1787. It's been sold off in Europe all day - we need to see US follow through to know that downside pressure is still strong from here. Without it there's an increasing chance that it will push higher again from here before coming off again later - the next key area on the upside lies at 1.1831-1.1838 - a break above here needed to signal any further near term strength to 1.1915. The overall picture is still bearish for EUR but with DXY consolidating off 94 and with a little more unwinding there still likely it means that this this whipsaw back higher for a while yet before the downtrend resumes again

EURUSD Target achieved, counter-rally followed by more weakness EURUSD After another rally back to the upper parallel precisely EUR has fallen to the target at 1.1915 after an intra-day low at 1.1910. It should now attempt a feeble rally back to 1.1946 and the upper parallel at best before it falls away again. And unless it can find a double bottom at 1.1910 when it next comes off the likelihood remains that it will decline further still over the more medium term in stages to 1.1880 then 1.1815 and finally to 1.1721
