GBPJPY: Key Levels To ShortHey Traders! Here are a few levels to look for to short this pair. The first level I'll be looking for is break out of the rising wedge. A close below the bottom of the wedge will likely mean further price action toward the target zone. If no breakout occurs, I'll be looking for rejection at the Gartley PRZ, then the deep crab if the bullish pullback is strong enough. In the target zone, there's a missed dialy pivot, weekly pivot, and the weekend gap which typically pulls price toward Friday's close. In the longer term, the weekly missed pivot and the 50% fib zone is a great area to look for another rejection. Happy Trading!

AUDNZD Long: Bullish GartleyGood Morning Traders! AUDNZD has completed a beautiful Gartley pattern on the 4H chart. The PRZ is tight, with confluence between AB=CD, .786XA and 1.13BC extension. The weekly pivot is precisely confluent with the .382CD retracement and provides a great target. It is smart to put stops beyond XA on these patterns. Happy Trading!
USDCAD: Key Levels to Watch for Potential EntryMornin' traders! There are a couple of key levels to watch here on USDCAD. The most important of which to me is the 1.284 area. Before taking a long position I want to see price close the weekend gap and touch the unhit daily pivot for Friday. Since a higher low was created from a bullish impulse, I will be looking for bullish price action (pinbars, engulfing candles, signs of rejection) at this level toward the neckline and possibly further if the H&S pattern remains valid. Until then, I'll be by the sidelines watching. Happy Trading!
NZDUSD Long: Cypher + Shark + TL SupportHey Traders! NZDUSD has entered the potential reversal zone of two confluent harmonic patterns. This zone is supported by additional long-term trend line support to add to bullish bias. Stops can be placed below Cypher point X with targets at .382, .500, and .618 CD fib retracements. Happy trading!
EURGBP Short: Bearish Wolfe WaveEURGBP has completed a bearish Wolfe Wave setup and may be ready to short toward the target line. Triangle is complete on the APRR oscillator as well. As always, it's a good idea to wait for confirmation before placing a trade. Close below the 1-3 extension would be a good indicator of continued bearish pressure in this case, with a tight stop above recent highs. This setup has two targets, one at point 3 and another at the 1-4 extension (traditional WW profit taking level).
Cable Monthly H&S - Wait for BounceThere is a clear head and shoulders pattern complete on the monthly chart for cable. Instead of shorting the pair immediately, I'd rather sell it from the 1.6 area to create a higher R/R and minimize risk. If we see a monthly pinbar for August I will be buying the pair up to this level on the 1-4 hour TF. There's an overage of pessimism surrounding the GBP at the moment and any buying pressure may trigger a swift and powerful bullish impulse. The missed pivots above price may pull the pair toward the sell limit level and add to the bullish bias after month end.
UDSCAD Long: Time For the Rebound - So much Confluence!Yesterday I posted this:
With a conservative short TP at the .786 fib. The pair has now dropped to the 1.618 level and is showing us several signs of bullish confluence, indicating a rebound is in order. A falling wedge/Wolfe Wave is complete and is pushing the upper retaining resistance line. Pinbar support has also formed on the 1HR chart at a key level: the bearish ADR line, which typically is a great sign for this level acting as strong support. On the Average Period Relative Range indicators, the triangle that was predicted is scheduling to complete on the 1H chart and the 15m chart is showing a potential HAS breakout if the neckline is broken. If the neckline breaks, so will too the upper boundary of the bullish Wolfe Wave. Pattern targets range between 35-55 pips, however there is a very important level at 37 pips. This level marks confluence between the wolfe wave target line, .382 fib level, and an AB=CD/Head and shoulders target line. Remember that this is end of week trading so ensure these types of trades fit within your trading plan.
Happy Trading!

EURUSD: Many Reasons to ShortEURUSD has reached an excellent level to look for shorting opportunities. A daily resistance trendline has rejected price on 8/11 and sent the pair downward over some important moving averages. These averages are now being retested and are confluent with the new daily pivot. Below price, there is a missed daily pivot that may help drag the pair downward. The completion of a larger TF Gartley provides a nice target. Selling after the break of the bullish trendline is a good idea, especially in this case, since there are some high volatility news events coming up for the USD.
Bearish Confluence:
D1 bearish TL resistance
100 Day EMA resistance
500 4H EMA resistance
14 4H SMA resistance
Daily pivot resistance
Missed daily pivot below price
