05/11/2016 USDJPY ShortI haven't posted anything on here in a long time so figured I'd post my current trade. This is a very simple setup I have been using for a while to trade on demo accounts and on 1broker. It is a combination of the Stochastic Oscillator as used in Mumbai Scalping set to 5,3,3 And an Ichimoku Cloud. My cloud has been altered to provide me with signals, I never finished writing the script so not every signal is fully trustworthy from it. In addition to these two indicators I use ZigZag as a way of seeing where to draw fib retracements and expansions.
As shown on my chart I have 3 signals all supporting to short. Stoch is about to fall below 70, the Ichimoku Cloud's conversion line crossed below the base line and we are under the cloud which is bearish. And we have hit a 0.618 fib retracement which we've began descending from. Therefore I feel it is quite safe to short here.
My entry is roughly the current price. My stop loss is 109.5 and my target is a meager 106.5
Short USD/JPY on a rebound to 115.96Monthly ranging and hit into strong support.
Weekly and daily are in downtrends.
The closest daily level is at 115.96 and the 4H 200EMA is not far behind.
Look to short at those regions. Tier 2 shorts because it coincides with a nice monthly level that's approximately top of range.
USDJPY trend continuationHere on the 1 hr chart on the USDJPY we have a possible shorting opportunity for a trend continuation trade using the combined technical score trade. I know that the rate decision comes out tomorrow and will probably destroy all of this technical analysis but in my trading i try my best to only focus on technical analysis and not the fundamental side of the market because during my backtesting i did not know when the rate decision came out but it is something that anyone trading this week needs to be aware of. Make sure to double check your stops and targets on all your trades and good luck!
