Getting Paid? With the USD/TRY Carry Trade?The USD/TRY has one of the highest Roll Over Interest out there should you choose to take on this highly volatile pair. It isn't so much that it is volatile, it has to do more with price just moves one direction, and that is up. The way we want to go is down (short) or at least sideways (ranging). Why is this interesting? It is because the Rollover Interest for going short stands at a whopping annualized rate of 28.94%. With 1:4 Margin Requirement for trading a standard lot on the TRY (based off the broker I use), $25,000 could earn me $28,940 yearly, which would be a staggering 115% return at the end of the year. Compounded, I would be a multimillionaire in no time, Buying up yachts, private jets, gourmet food, luxury cars, a pony that shoots lasers, Space X Starship, and countless other items. But hold up, is there a downside or something that makes this too good to be true? Yes, there is price movement as well as changes in interest rates as well as capital in the account. Having only $25,000 in the account, going full throttle and placing one huge position is sure to activate a margin call within seconds (as price can move thousands of pips against you quickly) and/or cause you to lose more than you put in. Now, we don't want that. You would need to have at least double the amount in the account in order to allow for price movement. The return would be halved, but making over 50% yearly isn't too bad either, is it? With price movement, the USD/TRY (I just call it the TRY), price moved higher over 57,000 pips in 2022, and over 100,000 pips in 2023; that is $18,240 and $32,000 respectively. Interest have just reached 45%, so things definitely would not have been good. Now, with funds in your account, not to many of us have $25,000 lying around to utilize in the markets, nor do we want to just tie up $25,000 into something really risky. Yet if used correctly and price does stabilize, then the TRY carry trade could payout (similar to the EUR/HUF). What could be done to reduce the risk? For starters, position sizing. Don't use the full force of your account and go "YOLO." Manage expectations. With a $25,000 account size, only getting into a position at around $3,750 (which is about 15% of the account used and a 15k position), would be around $3,650 return, which would be about a 14.6% return (still not bad. How many people can do this). If things go sour and price does move up at the end the year by 100,000 pips against you ($0.05 move per pip), that would be -$5,000 reduced to $1,350 because of the gained rollover interest (which would be only a 5% hit to your account instead of 20%). Putting some hedges in could also reduce some of the risk. Additionally, research and analysis, this could push you to make a more informative speculation on if getting into the pair is a good idea. Furthermore, to really ensure you don't lose any money, is to not get into the pair at all. For myself, I am utilizing around 41% of my Forex account in this pair, about 14% of my overall accounts. There are hedges in place to reduce the impact of price moving against me as well as my position being small enough to not cause any traumatic moves, even if price moves 100,000 pips against me (of course don't want that to happen). The decision is also made to stay in this pair for the long term or until there is some major changes. There is additional funds in reserves if needed, if things don't go well, in order to put another plan into play to get out of my positions in an orderly fashion. You all have some great trading out there.

Educational: Unlocking passive income through swaps/rolloverIn this publication, we will go into a strategy for generating passive income within the forex market, irrespective of market direction. While traditional trading methods often rely on correctly predicting market directions, what if there was a way to earn without speculating on market movements? Surprisingly, such an avenue exists, and it involves capitalizing on daily swap/rollover fees through leveraging negative correlation between currency pairs. 🔷What are swaps? In the forex market, a swap, also known as a rollover or overnight interest, refers to the interest rate differential between two currencies that are part of a currency pair. When you trade forex, you are essentially borrowing one currency to buy another. Each currency in a pair has an associated interest rate set by the central bank of its respective country. Current interest rates. How a forex trade works. Swaps are incurred when a forex position is held overnight or over the weekend. Since forex trading operates 24 hours a day, except on weekends, trades held beyond the daily cutoff time (usually around 5 p.m. EST) are subject to swaps. When you open a forex trade, you are simultaneously buying one currency and selling another. Each currency has its own interest rate. If the interest rate on the currency you are buying is higher than the interest rate on the currency you are selling, you will earn a positive swap. Conversely, if the interest rate on the currency you are selling is higher than the interest rate on the currency you are buying, you will incur a negative swap. Swaps are calculated based on the notional value of the trade, which is the size of the position you are trading. The notional value is multiplied by the swap rate, which is the interest rate differential, and then adjusted for any applicable broker fees or commissions. The resulting amount is either added or subtracted from your trading account at the end of the trading day. It's important to note that swaps are not always interest rate differentials. In some cases, they may also include other costs such as administrative fees or adjustments related to market conditions. 🔷How to know if your trade has positive or negative swap. You can find this out before executing a trade in the platform you are using to execute the trade. One of the most popular platforms in the forex retail industry is MT4 and MT5 (MetaTrader 4/5) I will show you to to locate the rates in these platforms but note that this data is available regardless of the trading platform. If you are not sure how to find this in your platform simply reach out to your broker. 1: Open your MetaTrader 4/5 platform and open your market watchlist 2: Right click on the the pair you are interested in and go to "specifications" 3: An additional window should now open showing additional information on the pair. Scroll all the way down and you will find swap details. Now here you can see Swap Long and Swap Short indicating if you open a buy or sell position, if you will earn positive swap or negative swaps Now at this point you are probably saying "Okay fine, but even if I am earning a positive swap for holding a short position on OANDA:EURUSD if the trade goes against me I will lose a lot more than I will earn" And that is true. So now for the other part of earning passively without worrying about the trade direction. 🔷Correlation in the forex market Correlation in the forex market refers to the statistical relationship between the price movements of two or more currency pairs. It measures the degree to which the pairs move in relation to each other. Positive correlation : A positive correlation means that two currency pairs tend to move in the same direction Positive correlation : A positive correlation means that two currency pairs tend to move in the same direction Zero correlation : A correlation coefficient of zero (0) indicates no significant relationship between the currency pairs. In this case, the price movements of the pairs are independent of each other. Correlation can be measured over different time periods, such as daily, weekly, or monthly. Short-term correlations may differ from long-term correlations due to changing market conditions and events. For our purposes we care about daily and above correlation. 🔷How to check correlation of pairs Out of respect for TradingView and their house rules I will not recommend any specific websites in order to check correlation of pairs but there are a number of websites out there that will advise on the negative or positive correlation of pairs in relation to others. There are also scripts here on TradingView that will do that calculation for you. Below is a image of pairs and there current correlation. BUT DO NOTE THAT CORRELATION CHANGES OVERTIME AS MARKET CONDITIONS SHIFT AND YOU SHOULD CHECK CORRELATIONS DAILY OR WEEKLY The image above gives an idea as to how these correlation charts will look, where a higher percentage indicates strong correlation and lower indicating weak correlation. 🔷Setting up passive earning via swaps Currently, our focus lies on identifying a currency pair exhibiting a positive swap and a negative correlation with another currency pair that also possesses a positive swap. This holds particular significance in our analysis. Alternatively, we can seek a currency pair with a positive swap alongside a currency pair with a negative swap, provided that the positive swap surpasses the negative swap. Here is an example. OANDA:NZDJPY has a positive swap if we are to open a buy position. So what we need is a pair that is negatively correlated to OANDA:NZDJPY but has a positive swap on shorts or a lower negative swaps on the shorts Lets look at pairs negatively correlated with OANDA:NZDJPY We can check the correlation based on different timeframes. Remember that the more a pair is negatively correlated, the better for our strategy. For demonstration purposes we will use the daily timeframe. In this case it's OANDA:EURNZD with a 71.6% negative correlation. Note the daily timeframe for OANDA:EURCZK has a higher negative correlation of 82.7% which would be better for our strategy. ( We are not using that pair only because my broker does not offer that pairs for trading) We can also see that OANDA:EURNZD has a positive swap for shorts : Okay so the next thing we need to look at is the negative correlation historically overtime to see how long the pairs have remain negatively correlated in the past. In the depicted images, we observe that the daily timeframe predominantly exhibits a negative correlation over the course of the year, with a brief period of positive correlation occurring in March and May. Conversely, the weekly timeframe has consistently demonstrated a negative correlation since 2021. Before proceeding with our trades, I highly recommend referencing the charts of both currency pairs to visually assess their correlation on the mentioned timeframes. This will provide you with a clearer understanding of what to anticipate. Please find the illustration below showcasing the correlation between the pairs on the specified timeframes. So as you can see in the images above the correlation is not 1-1 in terms of price movements but in general the pairs move opposite to each other and this is what we want. Now what you need to do is simply execute your trades based on your preferred risk profile. The larger your position is on both pairs the more your will earn daily via swaps, you need to execute using the same size lot size on both pairs. For our example you would execute a buy on OANDA:NZDJPY and a sell on OANDA:EURNZD This approach presents a method of generating passive income without relying on predicting future price movements or attempting to outperform the markets. While there may be periods when your account balance shows a negative value, the concept behind this strategy lies in the negative correlation between the selected currency pairs. Over time, these pairs are expected to offset losses on either side, resulting in minimal overall gains or losses, assuming the negative correlation remains intact. To ensure the ongoing viability of this strategy, it is crucial to regularly monitor the correlation between the pairs on a weekly basis. When the correlation approaches zero, caution is advised. Monitoring market fundamentals, particularly interest rates, is essential as they greatly influence the correlation between markets. Through the accumulation of swap profits over time, the goal is for the total profits from swaps to outweigh the overall risk involved in maintaining these positions. It's important to note that while this approach emphasizes a more passive trading style, it still requires active monitoring and attention to market conditions to ensure the expected correlation and swap profits are maintained. Positives of this investment strategy: 🔸Passive Income: By trading swaps and holding positions over time, you can potentially earn passive income through positive swap rates. This income adds to your overall trading profits without requiring active trading or predicting price movements. 🔸Diversification: Trading swaps allows you to diversify your trading portfolio and reduce risk. By selecting currency pairs with different interest rates and correlation patterns, you can offset potential losses in one position with gains from another. 🔸Potential Long-Term Profits: Over time, as swap profits accumulate, they can contribute to your overall trading profits. This can be particularly beneficial for traders with a long-term investment horizon. 🔸Reduced Focus on Short-Term Price Movements: Trading swaps shifts the focus away from constantly monitoring short-term price fluctuations. Instead, you can concentrate on macroeconomic factors, interest rate differentials, and correlation patterns that affect the swaps and overall profitability. Negatives: 🔸Market Risk: Although trading swaps can provide passive income, it does not eliminate market risk. Currency prices can still experience significant volatility, economic events can impact interest rates and correlations, and unexpected market developments can affect swap rates and profitability. 🔸Swap Rates Fluctuations: Swap rates are subject to change based on various factors, including central bank decisions, economic data releases, and market conditions. Fluctuations in swap rates can affect your expected income and overall profitability. 🔸Potential Losses: Although the aim is to minimize losses through negative correlation, there may still be occasions when both positions experience losses simultaneously. Negative correlation does not guarantee complete protection against losses, particularly during periods of high market volatility or unexpected events. 🔸Monitoring and Administration: Trading swaps requires ongoing monitoring of correlation patterns, interest rates, and swap rates. It also involves administrative tasks, such as calculating and tracking swap income and adjusting positions as necessary. It is important to thoroughly understand the risks and benefits of trading swaps and earning over time before implementing this strategy. Consider your risk tolerance, trading goals, and the suitability of this approach within your overall trading strategy. THIS IS NOT INVESTMENT ADVISE.

Rollover Parralel channel updateUpdate of the previous parralel channels post . So far both our channels have played out well, apart from the retest and rejection from our green channel. If the red channel plays out like the others we should start to see a steeper decline from this point on. 🤞 This would also fit the narrative of the cypher harmonic Iv been watching for (see other posts on my profile) Any questions or if you don't agree please comment and let me know. Love a discussion

Parallel channel update! retestI try to use as many indicators as I can to experiment and learn from thier comecomes. Iv been using the parallel channel tool recently and I enjoy how simple but handy it is. To me, recently we broke down from a upward trending channel (green) and it looked to me as if I slight downtrending channel was beginning to form (orange) Yesterday we momentary broke back out of the orange channel, perfectly retested the bottom of the green channel and got heavy resistance before re-entering the orange channel (retest and mini fakeout) See the link post for past related posts and keep an eye out for updates :)

When Relief Rally Coincided with Quad WitchingYM1! The US equity market selloff in Q1 was pretty fierce due to a confluence of reasons. Even the large-cap stocks have entered Oversold territory, as suggested by the RSI on the E-mini Dow future. Since the middle of March, the equity market experienced a typical round of relief rally, coinciding with the Quad Witching, when a large amount of derivatives expiration, order flow, and rebalancing happened. Now the Dow is far away from the Oversold level, and the previous support has become overhead resistance. The decline will likely resume as the Fed is determined to tighten financial conditions to fight inflation. Entry at 34400, stop above 35450. Targets are 32500 and 30000.

CADJPY warsOil clearly took the up-ramp. Now as you can see CJ was playing pretty much playing a leading role on this chart, which spans from May last year. There have been three other occasions back in August and September last year where CJ dips before catching up with Oil. It signals a possible USD roll over, which often plays in the second half of the year. Should we see a start of the USD roll over season at this time of the year it may take a little longer than usual to return bullish again. I see a possibility to last till December from any time it starts. Let's keep an eye on the stock markets as they play a big role to kick it off.

We might roll over right now!I didnt upload for a few days because I thought I would spam my Account with bad analysis. But today i saw that we are starting to roll over after the rejected retest of the rising wedge. I think we didnt saw a "real" retest so the price went up to retest it againg and now we are getting rejected. The optimistic target is at 37k, but the bulls can also prepare for 33k. I dont want to spread panic, im very bullish on the long term, but right now my prediction in the end is maybe right. great luck in trading, yours Henrik.

July VX Futures Rollover: M1 / August M2 to August M1 Roll YieldJuly Protection for Volatility was taken up to Sell M1 as we begin to see M2 (August) uptake 100% of the VXX M1+M2. Settlement will have, at minimum 98% front loaded into August M1. There will be the ever present Gap to close as there is every month. As the CASH VIX and July Contract converge for settlement, the Indices should range. We are looking for 12.30s to 15.50 as the Buy to Open range, but will adjust as necessary should the range fail. We are in the middle of Summer with a number of important Events setting up. Anticipating a large reaction to the undercurrent of RISKS. The VX Complex is the primary guidance for our setups and positions. We are approaching settlement - Thursday, Friday and the following Monday will provide a clear Trend for the short term. We anticipate a large decline in August through October. A Trade Plan is required as there are enormous "what if's" ever-present.

Armageddon cookingThis is authentic USD power. Quick observation though... On the scale of days, nothing has changed and CAD is still facing its big correction down to underdog level where USD and JPY are waiting for another leg of their journey to the center of the earth.. To be continued.. Let's indeed not jump up and down yet.. JPY is packing that worldscale depreciation, enough for the three leaders of the fx market.. Triangle crash imminent? JPY pulling the leading triangle into scraps.. See the arrows drawn on the chart, visualising market forces. USD wants to go up, but that little fresh authentic power (Biden propaganda ;) has never enough to avoid the traditional sequence of events.. Only this time on steroids.. JPY depreciation is freaking relentless, and we all know why. Unfortunately we can not let JPY crash alone because that would send UJ into oblivion and a wrong signal into the world. So.. Buckle up peeps.. Lots of peeps will have no freaking clue what happened. Some random piece of fundie will be made responsible for sure. One thing I can tell for sure atm, you don't want to be on the wrong side of it..
