USDTRY possible bullish wedgeOn the left we can see a big bull flag and the wedge i have drawn as well, both of them failed. Now we have a smaller bullish wedge in the making, could also fail but the RR is way to good to ignore this one. I am trying half here at the low and the second half when it break the wedge.

USD/TRY potential LongThis potential Long entry point in the chart is based on multiple technical and fundamental confluences, most of which i'm not going to give out
Note that FX markets and Turkish lira movement is based on fundamental information as any breakout of technical levels happens for fundamental reasons so I highly advise you to be unbiased and watch topic related news and periodical economic releases.
My stance (long/short/TP/SL/entry point) might change anytime if some new crucial info would come out.
Note that Turkey has highest USD denominated corporate debt burden among emerging market countries, with maturities sharply rising from 2019 and peaking in 2022. Meaning any near/medium term USD strength will have negative Lira effect as USD strength will complicate Turkish foreign debt repayment and will have negative pressure on Lira (USD/TRY strength)
Stance of TCMB on any potential Lira weakness will be interesting to see as well as FED tightening
Greek philosopher Plato once said "Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance"
Don't ignore anything and do your own research thoroughly before you commit any capital.
You can make money pretty quick in FX markets but you can lose them faster than anyone
Looking for a sure way to make money even if you are wrong?Let me present: the Turkish Lira carry trade.
Erdogan is a nice guy giving us free money if we invest in his dead currency.
There is probably bullish divergence here so I would wait either for resistance to get hit, or a break down, maybe an inside bar, anything to get that juicy juicy trade.
Against the euro the rate is even higher
I did not check with every broker, maybe rates are even better elsewhere.
Be sure to keep an eye on this.
If:
- You go short and it goes down you make heaps of money
- It goes sideways for a long while, which could happen it went down alot, you make heaps of money.
- It goes up you lose some. the risk reward does not need to be very attractive, if your stop is far away, it will probably take alot of time to get reached, and during that time Erdogan showers you in gifts :)
That carry trade is what made the thing explode (I think?) so there is this danger, but it exploded too much ....
It seems to be still interesting, just don't do it blindly and stupidly look for a trade that would be profitable on its own (50% odds and 1:1 good enough), selling a break or at resistance good enough.
I did not look at all the details maybe it is not as interesting as I think :p

Time to get to work on Turkey ... again=> Here we are tracking profit taking for shorts after an AB = CD leg in EURTRY
=> Nothing has changed on the macro side in Turkey and we have positive Euro flows starting to enter back into the picture as we start thinking about the unwinding of QE.
=> Our target at 7.34158 is the last daily R before we finished breaking down on this 'CD' leg whilst our stops remain below the lows
=> A break of the channel will trigger stops and should clear targets swiftly.. lets see how this one goes.
=> Good luck
