EURO-USD

The Euro pulls back further from Wednesday’s 1.2350...The Euro pulls back further from Wednesday’s 1.2350 apex following another approach, the Loonie recoils from 1.2650+ to sub-1.2700 post-Canadian trade data and the launch of a dispute settlement process against its NA neighbour over tariffs on solar products that it deems to be unwarranted. It may be too premature to draw firm conclusions or make assumptions, but price formation looks promising for the Buck in terms of building momentum, while another solid ISM survey, bar the services employment index, should in theory keep bear-steepening along the US Treasury yield curve intact to buttress the Greenback. Indeed, the Dollar remains on the rebound against all G10 rivals with the DXY eclipsing prior weekly peaks to trade at 89.979 vs its new 89.206 multi-year low.

EURUSD ABCD Sell Daily Hello All, it has been quite sometime since I posted, in part to my employer putting a proxy block on TradingView. I'm not a full time trader yet as I am still working on my Risk Management skills. But as far as strategy my harmonic stance is pretty evident from my previous posts. Anyway, I have been saying "BUY" the Euro since June or July of 2020 even though my technicals have been saying sell, but the COT has been saying buy. Now we are seeing something every interesting happening on the COT. Back in June or July we had a massive 20,000 order sell by the Commercials, which opens a lot of liquidity in the market even on the most traded pair in the world. COT traders know to fade the Commercials as they open trades expecting to lose them, so they can hedge their profits. Either way taking it slow, trading wise, after the holidays is a wise idea, as the markets were dry (as always around the holidays). The Open Interest was around 24XX orders and the majority were Large Speculators attempting to drive prices higher. Now, on the chart we have a simple ABCD pattern. The ABCD Pattern is the very essence of Buy Low and Sell High which is what Scott Carney says in one of his books. So, the ABCD pattern completes in a resistance area that has not been touched since March of 2018. Which happens to be the 1.24XXX area. PA is now entering the Resistance area, so on the lower time frames I would expect to see some crazy charts. I believe PA will complete the ABCD pattern and then we could see some drop in price. I would only expect to book a .382 profit before PA heads to the upside again. I think the move down will be profit taking and not a true shift in direction.

EURUSD - Sell is now valid 😎💥🎯EURUSD - the last buy closed in profit - is it now time for a drop? Seeing a little bit of dd, but still ok to enter if you were wanting too. Our algo thinks so, it's identified a sell position with all of the confluences now met. This is easy right? No lines, no S&R - no analysis, all I have to do is follow it. The major plus point is I can see it works with all the data within the strategy tester. This helps me and our traders have confidence and belief in our execution. When do we close this? We close on a reverse signal - but you can do as you wish. I don't recommend jumping on random trades you see on TV - that's no plan and you won't have a consistent clear edge. BUT, if you want to - knock yourself out. Multiple targets are on the chart too and they're based on ATR. The entry price, SL and multiple TPs are shown on the chart. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ What is our strategy? Our strategy is a trend following strategy, can be used on any instrument and time frame. However, we have hard coded specific parameters for when trading the H1 time frame, so we can back up over 4200 previous trades to confirm our edge from previous data. This gives us confidence in execution and belief in our trading strategy for the long term. The strategy simply sits in your trading view, so you will see exactly what we see - the trade, entry price, SL and multiple TPs (although we hold until opposite trade as this is the most profitable longer term plan), lot size, etc. This could be on your phone trading view app, or laptop of course. The hard work is done, so we have zero chart work time, no analysis, no time front of the chart doing technical analysis - technical analysis is very subjective - you may see different things at different times - how do you have a rigid trading plan on a H&S shoulder pattern? Your daily routine, diet, sleep, exercise can affect what you 'see' and your decision making, this doesn't happen when a strategy is coded like this; what we do have is a mechanical trading strategy... What does this mean? It means, we are very clear on our entry and our exit and use strict risk management (this is built in - put in your account size, set your risk in % or fixed amount and it will tell you what lot size to trade!) so we have no ego with our position and we are comfortable with all outcomes - its simply just another trade. This free's our mindset from worry and anxiety as we take confidence from knowing our edge is there and also that we have used sensible risk management. The strategy itself can be used as a live trading journal too - how cool is that? The strategy will confirm and support every open and closed position - so its quite easy to follow. We just have to do what Percy does. Intrigued? I bet, have a look at the related ideas or drop me a DM for more info.

'Risk-off' knocking at the moonlit door; Long Gold📌 After completing a second test of 1.20xx, profit taking entered into play with the fix yesterday. Dollar is clearly restrained by Fed and WH prevention and then by a later of risk hedge clearings . Before I present the usual schematic representation, we should look at just how difficult the environment is to play correctly with timing these reversals. As soon as a divergence is formed, we have the choice of a shallow or deep retrace in EURUSD towards 1.16xx/1.17xx or a sharp leg higher in Gold towards $1,970 and $2,100. Gold bears must also bear in mind risk-off flows are once again knocking at the door via Iran after clearing the vaccine newsflow. I have been fielding questions around stimulus for a while, it is easy to lean on CB's but the correlation is breaking and exactly on time when this transfer should happen. Hard to understand; a better way to put this is look for a large correction in Gold after clearing the board to set about some painstaking defence for the next round of risk-off flows cooking. Thanks as usual for keeping the support coming 👍 or 👎

EURUSD - Huge Swing Potential!I have been waiting on this set up for a while now so I'm hoping the wait will have been worth it! Current market price at time of writing is 1.19450. Huge swing trade set up here on EURUSD. Price has been so bullish over the last week due to USD's weakness and I did anticipate it reaching the yearly high at the 1.20 psychological level (2020's highest price.) which it has. I am religiously seeking out these strong levels in my trading due to their reliability to make strong rejections. As anticipated, price has begun to reject and start to sell off. We also have a falling wedge pattern that should break, if momentum can sustain. If so, we could see a nice swing trade down to the bottom of the range in the 1.16000's The risk to reward ratio on this trade is excellent, stops can be placed above the psychological level around 1.20200 which is little risk for such a great potential reward. Let's see how this plays out! if price does return to the 1.20's then I won't be too disheartened as the R:R here is too good to miss!

EURUSD @ 1.195 Resistance When volume drops off, a continuation of a trend won’t be as easy. It’s easy to trigger volatility but it’s rare in late Nov. to get a follow through. Volatility drops, markets outperform, and the VIX also drops. However, a tad of volatility in a thin and high spread market can create huge moves that can be very profitable if you are playing. We’ve had a contrast this week in terms of risk on—risk-off in terms of sentiment. The US indices hit multiple all time-highs, which carries a major impact regardless of where you’re at in the world and your current diversification of which assets. There is a significant of influence when it comes to the economic calendar, which drive the key underlying economic theatre. It’s not technical right now—it’s not even fundamentals—it’s the market conditions. As the expectation of a liquidity drained into the next few sessions this week, including major players being offline Thursday and Friday, is that some distorted moves could very well happen. Major highs have been achieved between the DOW and the SPX this week, with the SPX not posting an intraday record high, but a record all time high close which carries the same weight. When a major benchmark like this gets put on the radar of so many retails and intuitional firms alike—with the addition to motivation from the white house, it generates its own momentum further fuels by the algos that do run-online. This momentum will be of struggle though, don’t discount that. Yesterday we say both the SPX and DOW attribute risk-on up flows, including the NIKKE25, Euro equities like FTSE and DAX—although lesser—all showed positive inflows going into the holidays. Even the commodity markets like copper and crude oil stole some gains, pushing to high not seen since March. All of these advances marked clear month highs, and on clearance of a long-winded extension. EEM (emerging markets) has pushed to a new high also. This appears to be the technical cue for more of a systematic move. The current conditions behind the scenes is one that may come short when it comes to follow through. This simply means volatility and the significance of its current wave. Keep in mind, historically this is one of the slowest weeks for international finance. However, you can have some incredible moves, almost adagios to a tsunami in a quiet—unaffiliate market. It can be difficult however having follow through. To get a follow through or a trend at these kind of levels in the Equity Market’s (stretched for a speculative exposure) in a thin liquidity period, there are many things that can go wrong in terms of risk. There’s not as much of an opportunity to handle any profit in trends should you get in late, vs what can happen when the trade goes wrong? Fear doesn’t wait. greed is hesitant. Right now, I’m more interested in the tension of a breakout for the U.S. dollar. Unlike the SPX , the dollar index is looking at a break that only put’s it back into a very…very large range. It’s much easier to stick in a range than form a trend, which makes sense. these are forms of value we’re speculating on. The dollar could be on the verge of a breakdown on the daily timeframe . This has a lot of alignment to the dollar-based majors, EUR/USD at 1.19, but more notably is 1.20. However, this will be a tuff 100 pip zone oof resistance that will try to put a downside break on hold. -GBP/USD: 1.34, a multiyear trendline going back to the peak prior to BREXIT, stands strongly above at the 134 range. -AUD/USD: Backing up to multi year highs, we can see it’s a risk-oriented major right now. -NZD/USD: With the RBNZ’s refusal to entertain a more accommodative policy—which was expected—is in a similar situation. The interest is in the improvement in trade relations, as the transition between TRUMP 44 to BIDEN 45 takes place. There is a fundamental addition catalyst larking in the water. In the meantime, we have scheduled even risk over the next 2 days of trade. The US docket is loaded—with good US PMIs and a disappointed consumer confident print, followed by durable goods, trade balance, initial jobless claims, and personal spending all due this week. I will be watching initial jobless claims most closely, but I don’t think this will override the liquidity –and lack there off—as mentioned above, however you never can say you know anything in this market!! This could cause a bounce of the DXY or a break, I just won’t be very confident in what is to come in terms of follow through. Even the suggestion for the transition is verified by Georgia and Michigan and Pensively, more realistic things that has attributed to the market sentiment is that Janet Yellen could possibly be the next treasury secretary. This would insulate more stimulus, and this time it could be both fiscal and monetary policy stimulus. So this is personally what I’m interested in specifically right now. This would only buffer further risk trends. Question is, can it solve an empty hole in investors hearts looking for –and have no found—true value? It’s a systemic question. PS: Watch the broader indicines and the amount of outflows from the tech sector of the DAQ.
