GBPCHF long swing trade set-upGBPCHF long swing trade set-up based on strong green candles prior to pullback 1W, bullish flag with price above EMAs 1D, good bullish volume and close/open above 9/18/36 EMAs 4H. This is somewhat risky given the wild price fluctuations, Ive set a super generous stop loss and a lower % entry to reduce risk. If this SL gets hit, it wont be an issue for me. If we get a rally I'll take 60% off at T1 and trail the rest. Not financial advice, trading FX is high risk.
Pound the Swiss? Ichimoku GBP/CHF trade setupAnother GBP/CHF trade setup on my list this weekend! We've continued our bullish run with this pair and I am looking for trade it up to our major resistance level where we were rejected previously several weeks ago. Since we are so close to that resistance level I'm wanting to enter on a drawback to help limit risk. I think a breakout trade here just wouldn't quite give me the risk to reward entry I would want for the risk exposure I'm looking for with this pair. So I would really like to see a drop to tenken sen for price to hold with a good candle which is when an entry would be confirmed for me and I would enter. If we fail to get the drawback or hold support upon a drawback, this setup may become invalidated.
GBPCHF. Turning Up now. Buy the breakout. Trading Criteria:
Regardless which way you want to trade, look for minimum five 4hr. candles in consolidation zones (yellow border boxes), or five daily candles for solid yellow boxes. If you're a pattern trader or pinbar trader, this might be useful here.
Wait for the breakout of the 4hr. consolidation or daily consolidation from red border boxes to take the trade. Red border boxes are the High/Low of a consolidation period inside the consolidation zone. I usually aim for 80% of the weekly ATR (or monthly ATR for yellow solid boxes) taking profit but not always at the next yellow box. I place my stop loss above/below red border box.
*These zones, with the inclusion of price action described above, have remarkable accuracy.
Yellow border box: weekly consolidation zone
Yellow solid box: monthly consolidation zone
Red border box: High/Low breakout box (5 minimum candles)
Grey solid box: monthly grid block

GBP/CHF - Ichimoku Long Trade SetupWe had a big move upward last week and price has stalled out a little bit here. I am watching for a drop to tenken sen support. If we can drop down to it and see a good support candle hold then I'll be looking to enter a long position for a climb higher. If we fail to drop to support and hold, or if we don't see a good support candle for entry, this setup will become invalidated.

GBPCHF - LONG trade set-upsI opened a long position on this pairing at 1.2516 - currently waiting to see if the trend will make one last move downwards respecting the descending trend-line marked (A), or if it has already reversed and will continue to rise towards the next major resistance line at 1.307. Stops have been moved to account for the upcoming potential movements.
If it makes one last move downwards - I will buy as close to 1.25. On the other hand if this is a reversal - I will wait for it to re-test a black line of support and open a position.
Although the Brexit process has not gone well, we can at least be grateful that the complete failure of the UK government has provided us with an opportunity to enter long positions. Let's take advantage of this uncertainty and catch these bargains.
This is not investment advice - I am simply posting these ideas for my future self to reflect upon and learn to be a better trader. Trade smart and be careful. Good luck!
