GBPUSD: The Next Look at GBPUSDNo to much on my radar today, but then again, most of my analysis for the week comes after the Monday New York close. I did get a few questions to follow up on my last post. i'm a little late but here are my thoughts on the GBPUSD.
If you remember last week we were keeping our eyes on a potential short opportunity as price action made it's way up to previous structure. Well after the market create a NSH that changed our analysis on the trend. I wouldn't be as bold to assume a full reversal due to the nature of the break and close that we had, but a retest of previous structure can certainly be on the table.
See you guys in War Room!

Structure-trade
USDJPY Bearish Trend Continuation Trade & GartleyUSDJPY is still holding its current downtrend on the 60min chart. Until this trend reverses I will continue to sell all rallies.
Currently we have a Gartley, ABCD Pattern, and Fib Inversion all lining up in that "Sell Zone" (Purple box).
This gives us a CTS score of 8. If the RSI goes Overbought and/or we get Divergence on it, then we could have a score of 9 or 10.
Entry - I will use the Gartley Pattern to enter this trade aggressively.
Stops - 1 ATR above last Swing High
Target #1 - Retest of Previous Structure Lows
Target #2 - 1.27% Fib Extension of the last down leg

Structure Base Short (Fib Cluster)As price action is moving to the upside, traders can look to short the GBPJPY as we have a major structure level as our near term Kill zone.
We have :
a harmonic move (AB=CD) coming in at structure.
Fib retrace of 50% coming in structure
we also have a 1.27 inversion coming in at structure as well.
Traders can look to sell at near term structure

NZDJPY BEARISH BAT ( STRUCTURE + EMA)Hey traders! We have a potential bearish Bat pattern @ 76.500. Expecting a short reversal to 38.2% atleast of CD leg. Price action trading below the EMA and RSI shown Hidden bearish divergence already. Price action also reaching the structure resistance, looking to test.
USDCAD LONG CYPHER ( STRUCTURE + EMA)IF price action comes at 1.4398 then our Cypher pattern will be completed right at the level where the next structure is, If you look left. And if you look below in RSI, you will find a Bullish Hidden divergence formed already. Price action is also trading above the Exponential moving average. I am expecting a reversal after it completes from the potential reversal zone area. Expected price is 38.2%of CD leg and then 61.8% of it.
GBPUSD: Breakdown of a Bearish Trend Continuation SetupMany would call me crazy for looking to short the Cable ($GBPUSD) knowing that we're at a major level of structure on the daily chart, but IF we get the right type of retracement, there will be plenty of room to profit and exit the trade in what will simply look like retest of structure lows on the HTF.
As you can see on my chart price action has recently gone through it's normal stages of expansion, consolidation, followed by expansion. My prediction is that we'll see some continued bullish action off of our current lows and retest that previous level of consolidation where I have an initial killzone made up of Fibonacci retracements and an inversion.. That's where I'll be looking for my opportunities to short.
Each week in the Live Room and Syndicate, we seem to pick a single pair that we stalk for days waiting for the right opportunity. Last week it was the AUDCAD and that played out pretty well. Hopefully we can see the same here on the GBPUSD.
Other pairs on my radar to start the week are the USDCAD (which I'm already long this morning), NZDUSD and AUDUSD. Best of luck in the markets this week traders and if you want to see the video version of my Trading Recap just click the link below.

EURNZD TCT ( RSI HIDDEN BULLISH DIVERGENCE + STRUCTURE)Hey there guys! Since I have a sell setup in NZDUSD at CMP, I am looking to buy EURNZD. The price action coming back to previous structure zone. Making a correction after the impulse leg. I am expecting an upside move from the structure zone area to touch the retest of the impulse. Price acton also trading above the EMA's thus indicating a bullish bias. We also see a RSI hidden bullish divergence formation.
NZDUSD BEARISH GARTLEY ( Structure + EMA)Hey there guys! This is a setup for Monday! A bearish Gartley pattern. Price action attempting to test the structure resistance. Price action is also trading below the EMA's, thus indicating a downtrend. Expecting the price to reverse around the potential reversal zone.
AUDCAD: A 2nd Chance To Hop On The Trend with Video ExplanationI'm looking at two opportunities her eon the AUDCAD hourly chart 1) A Trend Continuation opportunity and 2) A bullish Cypher Pattern. Now of course you can combine the two, but when working with newer traders my advice is to pick and master a single strategy first, then add or start to combine later in your trading career.
If you're new to following me this was a trade that we looked at earlier in the week so make sure you check out that post. I also reviewed it in my YouTube video last night so make sure you check that out if you're the type that picks up things better by watching. Good luck as we enter our final trading day of the week, I know those of you that trade advanced patterns on the $EURUSD are probably already starting the celebration a little early. ;-)

AUDCAD: Nothing Fancy Just Pure Structure TradingNo fancy shapes or anything like that today just a pure structure based setup for you guys. We'll be looking for long opportunities on this pair today in my Live Trading Room looking to hop on the current outside return. We're actually inside the killzone as we speak but I'll be waiting for a lower place of entry since I'm more or a trend continuation trader not a trend following trader in these types of situations.
We do have a Fibonacci cluster in this zone as well but what caught my attention was looking at price action and how resistance has recently turned to support around this psychhological level of 0.9950.
If you find that you're unfamiliar with the basics of reading a price chart make sure you watch the FREE Training video called "Into The Grey" goo.gl

USDJPY: Clean harmonics Into A potential Structure ShortIn preparing for this mornings training on IPDE and Trend Continaution vs. Trend Following vs. Countertrend trading, I found a handful of potential good looking structure based trades on the Yen crosses.
In this particular example we have some beautiful harmonic movement (equal measured moves) heading into a resistance level. Thanks to that nasty wick at the top our killzone is a little bigger than what I would prefer, but that may not play a difference depending on what type of entry reason we get for this potential short.
I've got a video coming out later today on the EURUSD and possible how we can attack this trade as well so make sure you're subscribed to my channel. goo.gl
Good luck this week traders and as always please LIKE, COMMENT & SHARE this post.

NZDUSD LONG & SHORT OPPORTUNITIESNot knowing which way the market will take us we need to be able to identify potential trade opportunities for going both long & short.
IF price action takes us higher there is a nice selling zone with a cluster of Fibonacci retracements and extensions which line up with a strong structure level giving us that high probability reversal zone.
For shorts, IF we continue to the down side there is a D leg which will complete a bulish Gartley pattern at 0.6282
Either way we have a plan.
CTS trade on USDJPYHere on the USDJPY we have a cluster of technical indications that the market wants to go up a little before continuing the downward momentum that we have had recently. This is a counter trend trading opportunity so i do not anticipate a complete reversal at this zone but only a brief retracement back up into the most previous resistance level. Hope you found this post to be educational and best of luck on all future trades!

GBPAUD: 4hr TCT opportunity with a Complex Pullback Looking at a potential trend continuation opportunity here on the GBPAUD as the market puts in a complex pullback into previous structure resistance. As we talked about in last night's video, complex pullbacks offer safer entries into TCT opportunities on both the psychological and risk/reward side of things.
As mentioned in last night's video there are different areas you can look fat for target taking depending on your level of aggression as a trader, but the risk/reward is so good that you should be able to maintain your minimums no matter what you're shooting for.
We'll go over this once again in more detail in the Live Room this morning guys.

NZDUSD 1 Hour: Potential Short w/a Few Different Entry OptionsDespite an inverse reaction to yesterday's FOMC minutes, I'm still looking to be bearish the USD as we anticipate a rate hike in December. Being a technical trader, my fundamental views won't affect what opportunities I take, but it can beneficial when they both line up on the same side (for those of you who remember the USDCAD trades over the summer).
Anyways, I'm looking for a short opportunity here on the Kiwi (which is also one of the weaker currencies) as we look to retest previous structure resistance for the 3rd time. Yup, 3rd time which means our double top has already occurred and we can now look for a......26-18 for a potential entry.
A little hard to see on the hourly, but the view get's a lot clearer down on the 15 minute chart for you day traders. There's also a bearish Cypher pattern hidden in there for you advanced pattern only traders, or for those looking for an aggressive entry into the 2618.
We'll look at this more in the live room today and remember gang, it's THURSDAY! So that means my Weekend Review video will be out. Make sure you head over to youtube and subscribe as I'll be doing a training lesson on the 4 Stages of trading and the evolution that a trader goes through.

EURUSD: Fibonacci Inversion Trade at Previous StructureNo doubt that Jason Stapleton will be showing this to you guys in our morning Warroom meeting, but we're looking at a potential Fibonacci inversion trade setup here on the EURUSD. We also have a 38.2 fibonacci retracement meeting at that same level and if you look left...well you know what we always say. "Look Left, Structure Leaves Clues"
