EUR/USD showing exhaustion, possible big reversal.Hello traders, After the long uptrend, the EUR/USD pair is showing signs of exhaustion. First, it seems to be failing to make a new higher high, as seen on the latest candle. The RSI is starting to show a divergence (RSI is not making a new higher high on the latest candles). I will be waiting until the 4H candle breaks the 20 moving average from the Bollinger bands with a clear bearish momentum candle in order to enter (at least this is my strategy as I need clear signals). I do not try to enter on the highest possible point, as I am not a very risky trader. I prefer waiting for clear confirmations and sacrifice some pips in order to avoid big losses. What is your idea on this? Leave a comment below :) Ray

EURUSD: Why Am I Bullish? My Chart Will Explain It WellI believe that successful trading strategies rely heavily upon identifying consolidation zones. Consolidation zones provide us the right direction of the market. Consolidation happens when a market move sharply upside or downside. Later, a trader can use these consolidation zones to identify patterns, whether it be a continuation or reversal. It requires attention and care. Rather than turning out to be a factory of producing signals, it is better to sit down and look for a setup. Setups are important because we are planning a trade and execute them on time. If you fail to plan a setup, then you are planning to fail. Another advantage of trade setup is that we know where to get out and the right time to go in. Know the market. Study the price movements and make your trades. My charts use price movements, patterns, structures and indicators such as moving averages and oscillators. Trading intelligence is combining multiple knowledge to produce a favorable trade setup and plans.

EURUSD Is Not Going To ParityTaking a look at the long term cycles you can see that the market took about fifteen years to create the wave from 1985 to 2000. Here we sit at the bottom of the subsequent cycle after that and you have everyone and their mother thinking that the euro 0.09% will go to parity. This has led me to thinking that the sheeple out there are drinking too much of the Kool-Aid and not doing their thinking. So lemme give a taste of contrarian thinking. It might be a little soon to suggest that we are at a major low, but that is how i'm playing it. As the analysis on this long term chart suggests, the market is due to put in a low that can last for the next seven years. Once this low is established then you will have everyone denying that it is in a strong position to move higher. With that being said this chart has me comfortable to lean on the long side from a position trading standpoint. The previous wave lasted fifteen years and the current wave is pushing the calendar to over seventeen years which means that the low is over due. Of course there will be those who don't want to read the writing on the wall. Cycles work suggests that the move to parity is overstated. You can also get a sense for this confirmation by looking at the other Euro 0.09% pairs. They are starting to put in major lows from a long term perspective as well.

EURUSD Head and Shoulders FormationTHE BIG PICTURE: This is the daily chart of EURUSD with the reverse head and shoulders pattern. At the moment of this publishing it is still premature to consider the formation complete. The anticipation is to have the market close above the neckline. If this occurs then it sets up for a higher likelihood that the Euro will start to trade toward the 1.1250 target zone. The time to trade it will be once the market can close above the neckline. THE TECHNICAL STANDPOINT: Once the market is able to close above the neckline then the trade can be triggered somewhere around the 1.08 level with a stop just beneath the right shoulder at about the 1.0480 level. The target based on the measurement of the tip of the head to the neckline measures about four hundred pips. With a risk of about 300 pips and a target of about 400 pips this sets up for a reward risk ratio of about 1.43 to 1
