SHORT-TERM BULLISH GOLD AFTER HAMER CANDLEWith lousy and direction-less equity markets today - Europe rollercoaster, US hibernating - let's take a look at Gold. The precious metal yielded a near-perfect bullish hammer candle today. I usually like to see those at the end of a longer downtrend, but would never want to ignore a hammer, when I see one.
My longer-term technical work suggests a fresh bull cycle for commodities and Gold, and with that in mind, today's hammer becomes more interesting.
Fundamentally, is this is a hint at dovish Yellen in Jackson Hole? Let's see...

GBPJPY - 2H - Structure restest with pinbarFollowup to last weeks idea (link below)
Setups is pretty simple. Breakaway from support (now resistance) and now a retest with decent confirmation due to the pinbar. Im looking for a bigger trendcontinuation following the older ideas so my stops is conservative above the rcent swing at 155.50 but u can also place above the pinbar with more risk of gettin stopped out but premium risk reward.
USOIL - 1h - Double top at Resistance (+ daily pinbar)USOIl retesting resistance at prior structure. we double topped (which was also a pinbar on the daily timeframe) and confirmed the double top by breaking blow the neckline as well as the trendline. nowe we are currently retesting recent structure (deeply). i sold the 50% retracment. you can also look for reversal signals on a 5-15m timeframe if you like. im just sharing the overall setup.
EUR/USD 240 Divergence with a Hammer at a Demand ZoneThere is some divergence on the 240 min chart between price and the RSI. Price rejected the Drop-Base-Rally around 1.0840's. I'm looking to get long at the 50% retracement of the Hammer candle wick at 1.0847 (check your data.) My stops will be just below the swing low at around 1.0830. I have a few targets at each of the swing highs (1.0885, 1.0943, and 1.1060) Good luck trading.
