EURNOK
UKOIL - Possible short trade setupWe have recently seen a nice rebound in UKOIL after the massive downturn due this summer from 50 area. As for now the price as has retraced around 61,8% from consolidation high around mid 48 area, which also acts as horizontal resistance around 46 area.
Short term, we should see some support around 43,50. If this level fails, we could very likely retest recent lows around 41 area.
In that matter, trend is your friend and a possbile short trade should be nice.
Trade setup:
Short at current levels (43-44 area) with 1/3 of desired size. Rest if we rebound up to 45,50-46. Stop loss if the price closes above 46. Target should be mid 30's.
EURNOK - possible long trade EURNOK has fallen to great support just above 9,20 area, including horizontal support and a long trendline since the bottom since april/may this year.
For now, we might have seen a whipsaw of possible longs, as the price was below trend support. If the price manage to go above the trend and close higher than current level, we might see a possible rebound.
Long trade setup:
Entry around 9,23-9,25. Stop if we close below 9,21 on a daily basis. target is set to 9,40.

#EURNOK bear #crabWith Oil price consolidating a bit Norwegian Krona stopped falling. Since NOK is heavily exposed to Oil, any bullish Oil PA will push the NOK up. $Statoil being the Norwegian largest oil company has a share of over 22% in the Norway stock index OBX. OBX is declining, Statoil shares shows a little recovery, so being long on NOK makes sense from the fundamental standpoint.
Possible HS-formation in EURNOKEURNOK has a possible HS-formation. Only a break and close below 8.40 will confirm this possible trade-idea. Resistance is around 8.50. Objective pricetarget if we get a break of 8.40 will be 8.15, while a stop loss should be executed if we close above 8.50.
Furthermore, we are currently testing the positive trend since last bottom at 8.10 (4H chart). Will be interesting upcoming days!
Comeback for EURNOK?The NOK has depreciated rapidly in the past week on the back of weaker data and falling
oil prices. The market is now pricing in a roughly 50/50 chance of Norges Bank cutting
its policy rate at the December meeting. All things are possible, but this seems over the
top.
The NOK is much weaker than Norges Bank assumed in September and banks have
cut their mortgage rates. On the other hand, global interest rates have fallen and growth
has been slightly weaker than expected. On balance, though, Norges Bank would need to
revise down its growth projections for mainland GDP next year from 2.25% in September
towards 1% for current market expectations to be justified and we think that is really
pushing it.
With inflation close to target, house prices rising and unemployment largely
unchanged, it also seems unlikely that Norges Bank will be proactive and cut interest
rates in anticipation. The slide in the NOK therefore seems to be an overreaction.
Trading Idea:
Short on bounces up against 8.48-8.55 with a target price of 8,15. Stop loss if we close above 8.55 on weekly timeframe.
