Shoulders
$RISE FORMING HEAD & SHOULDERS,LONG OPPORTUNITY —WAIT TO CONFIRMH&S pattern, showing bullish signs. Consider buying after confirming bullish reversal
Classical SHSAs we see, price formed a high (left shoulder)
The correction was pretty tough, went back nearly all the way (first weak signal that SHS might be forming)
the next high could not get much higher (head)
the correction was very tough again and went back to the level of the former correction,
The next high (right shoulder) could not go higher than the second (head), thats where a SHS is very close
now draw the neckline, (connect the beginning of the left shoulder with the low after left shoulder, and low after the head)
If the price breaks this neckline, the SHS is completed, and it is very likely that the price will fall the same amount, it went up from the left shoulder to the head.
All clear?
Any questions?
Let me know!
EURUSD HEAD AND SHOULDERS A PIVOTEURUSD just broke the neckline of a head and shoulders pattern. Pair is also pivoting off a yearly and quarterly pivot point cluster. Only obstacle is the yearly pivot level, if that breaks, I expect the head and shoulders measured move to happen which will also fill the GAP many FX brokers have on their charts. Yearly pivot could act as a pullback area to the neckline.
USD CAD is Making shapes! So OK. I was wrong the first time about the break out on this market and it cost me 100 pips. I learned the "wait and see" lesson (again). And a lot of the other traders did predict this spike back up into trend before the bear run.
However, what to watch for?
So this newly formed head and shoulders gives us its neck line on old support/resistance which is nice, it allows for an aggressive bearish trade off this marker, and also gives us an upper section of the forming bearish trend. I will be taking this trade which I expect to line up today, but I will be entering on Bearish candle patterns only and a clear rejection of the resistance. Ill be setting my stops above the recent shoulder but will be managing this in real time and getting out at the first sign of trouble.
A longer term and more conservative approach would be to wait for confirmation of the blue trend line and sell off this on each pass. I'll probably be doing that too, but that's one for next month.
