CADJPY - Bullish SharkIf the 2 bearish candles didn't appear before the market close, the Head and Shoulders formation is an almost perfect setup.
Now we need to have the awareness that the Bullish Shark Pattern may form and that will weaken the Shark Pattern.
At this moment it is still too early to make any decision, it will be critical when the candle break and close below Point B.
2nd Target for the Head and Shoulders is at a Risk-Free setup. In fact, the stop-loss has locked 16pips of profit and that is the Worst Case Scenario for this trade. The Best Case Scenario will bring you a 217pips(approx. 2,170USD/lot) potential.
Now, that's why Patience is Virtue!

EURJPY - Bearish SharkDo you remember the Bearish Shark setup that I've shared on 15 March 2021?
Well, I don't remember the exact date, but tradingview does. That's 1 thing I love about tradingview.
It helps traders to differentiate the real trader apart from those who just do screenshots that are favourable to their desired outcome.
For those who have engaged on the Shark Pattern on the weekly chart, right now it is giving you 338pips(approx. 3,380USD) of running profits, from a 579pips(approx. 5,790UDF) retracement.
Check out the link at the bottom of the tradingview post.
At this moment there are 2 potential scenarios on its daily chart. A bullish bat completing at 126.00 as a trend trading setup or a Bearish Shark Pattern completing at 133.46 as a counter-trend trade.
USDJPY-Weekly Market Analysis-Sep21,Wk2Last week, I've shared with you that USDJPY is going to have a Bullish Shark Pattern set up within the 5-0 Pattern and the price to engage on the countertrend setup is 109.73(you can check the link within the TradingView chart and you can find the chart link at the bottom). The final target for the Shark Pattern brings 53pips of profit which is approximately 530USD/lot traded.
USDJPY has just completed its Bearish Flag Pattern. I'm waiting for a double bottom, which means the market has to retest and touch 109.62 for a double bottom buying opportunity. This will put the trade setup to be a counter-trend trade and an RSI Divergence will be my minimum criteria to engage the trade and the first target will be at 109.88.
GBPUSD-Weekly Market Analysis-Sep21,Wk2Two weeks ago, we spoke about the Bullish Bat setup for a buying opportunity, at this moment the setup has brought a total of 238pip, which is equivalent to 2,380USD/lot traded. If you like to catch on the bull run, a retest on the trendline(blue) can create an opportunity for you to engage the trade. The immediate previous high can be your Target1.
Counter-Trend Traders can wait for the Bearish Deep Crab Pattern confirmation at 1.3910. Usually, for Deep Crab Pattern, I will wait for consolidation and retest before engaging the trade.
EURUSD-Weekly Market Analysis-Sep21,Wk2Two Harmonic Patterns Converge at 1.1892. I'm waiting for a retest at that level for a shorting opportunity on the Bearish Shark and Bearish Crab Pattern.
Both Shark Pattern and Crab Pattern is a counter-trend setup and it is more likely for this pattern to consolidate, retest and retest before the actual move.
Once the market retest the Bearish Channel, it will be a great idea to shift stop-loss to entry.
CADJPY - Head and ShouldersA confirmed Head and Shoulders formation on the 4-hourly chart with an RSI Divergence gives an opportunity for trend reversal traders to engage in a counter-trend trade.
The 1-hourly chart trendline has greatly improved our entry price by 63pips and I've engaged the trade at 87.13 when the candle touches the trendline and has a 3-bar reversal with a bullish engulfing candle.
EURUSD - Bounce off at upper Channel Line + DivergenceHi Traders!
The market is in an Uptrend.
This statement is supported by the fact,
that the SMA 50+200 are crossing bullish right know,
which is also called a "Golden Cross".
So now, as the market is going up, we have to see when it's going to be over.
So we here have some indications why the market is goint to end soon:
Price moved really far until now
The market is reaching a Daily Resistance
The MACD shows some kinds of Divergence
As we're in an Uptrend, don't set your TP too far away.
Thanks and successful Trading :-)!
CADJPY - Bearish BatA Harmonic Pattern that is fit the criteria of a counter-trend trading setup on the CADJPY has been established.
This is not your usual Bat Pattern but a Fib3 Bat or some called it the Alt Bat which works fine with me.
I'm waiting for the candlestick confirmation to decide should I be shorting the Bearish Bat Pattern on every hour candlestick close.
GBPAUD - Bullish Gartley @ XBullish Gartley Pattern form at X is 1 of the pattern that I will watch closely. I'm waiting for a counter-trend trade on this Gartley Pattern setup.
Trade has already engaged but stops is placed below the bearish flag completion with buffer.(you can check out the link at the bottom to access the training on my secret formula in placing stop-loss)
GBPJPY - Bullish Butterfly ExtensionWe have a Head and Shoulders Pattern and it's completion come into the Bearish Shark completion. Well, it gives a 1:1 Reward:Risk but we are looking at 140pips of risk.
WOW!! Not for me man!
So instead of buying at 1unit, I'm going to wait for the butterfly pattern setup, a bullish butterfly completing at 151.05 for a counter-trend trading opportunity off the 15minutes chart but a trend trading on the 4-hourly.
For this setup, I would rather miss the trade than to put myself in a 140pips risk.
Tutorial | How To Use RSI To Find Turning Points ... or NOT!Hey Speculators - Happy Friday - welcome to another video tutorial, and thanks again to the @TradingView Editors for featuring my last post, which I've linked here, and is related to the topic on hand for today. That topic is how, and when, to not fight a trend.
I'd suspect many traders are familiar with the Relative Strength Indicator (RSI), used to measure overbought and oversold conditions. In this video, I discuss what I look for when using RSI to filter trade signals and identify when strong is REALLY strong. The inverse would hold true as well (you know, weak, or really WEAK), but we all know markets never go down. :)

USDJPY - Bearish SharkA bearish shark pattern is about to happen on USDJPY as well. Sometimes these happen to the Yen pairs, 1 after another and it is really your trading rules to decide if you cherry-pick them or you engage them anyway.
What's the difference between these 2 Shark Pattern setup is that this is a counter-trend setup.
Traders who have the in-born mindset of how high can it go or buy low and sell high would prefer the USDJPY Shark Pattern setup.
Which is your favourite?
Let me know in the comment segment below.
USDJPY - 5-0 PatternConsolidation in the 5-0 Pattern is what traders who shorted the Shark Pattern don't want to see. A break and close below the blue box will ease the mind of many. However, Profession traders will look closely at that level and decide should they liquidate their 2nd Target and go long.
You don't need to stare at the screen, just set an alert and let technology alert you and decide when the candlestick close.
AUDUSD - Bullish BatIt seems like this week Bat Pattern is all Fib3 Bats, which means it has failed to touch the Fibonacci Retracement level of 50%.
Of all the Bat Pattern that was posted this week, AUDUSD Bat Pattern is more likely to fail because of an internal bearish flag pattern.
You have to watch closely how the candle responded at Point D on its PRZ level before engaging on this counter-trend trade.
GBPJPY - Bullish BatLike GBPUSD, GBPJPY also has a Bullish Bat setup that B point hasn't touch Fibonacci Retracement 50%. Although it is a similar setup, there are 2 things that GBPJPY came to a bit short compare to its big brother GBPUSD.
1. The Friday candle close haven't touched Point D.
2. Point C touches Point A candle body.
Where we can wait for #1 to fulfil but #2 is a warning sign and the minimum candle formation you need to see is a Bullish Engulfing candle at Point D.
GBPUSD-Weekly Market Analysis-Aug21,Wk4The bullish bat pattern form within the demand zone on the daily chart. This setup is good enough for me t engage the counter-trend trade.
However, I must highlight that the B point of this bat pattern didn't hit 50% Fibonacci Retracement and may not be a Bat Pattern to some Harmonic Pattern Traders.
I leave that decision to you.
USDCAD - Bearish BatA Bearish Bat Pattern has formed up on the 4-hourly chart. I'm waiting for the current candle to close and may just go aggressive when that happens.
This harmonic pattern is a counter-trend setup, hence when it reaches the blue box, you have to shift stop-loss to entry, well, at least I will.
AUDCAD - Inverted Ascending TriangleA buying opportunity can be a possible trading setup as long as the candle didn't break and close below the trendline of this Inverted Ascending Triangle.
If the current candle close as a long shadow(having the lower shadow 3times higher than the candle body I will engage on an immediate buy.
GBPJPY - Bullish SharkA Bullish Shark Pattern completes at 151.40 at 1pm(+8GMT). What will you do if you miss this trade?
Most traders will choose either 1 of the option:
1. Rush and engage the trade
2. Set Pending Order at the entry price and hope for the retest.
I engage 25% of my position to the 1st target and the remaining 75% I'll set the Buy Limit Pending Order to engage the trade.
There isn't a perfect answer, trade the way that fits you best.
