TCT
Bat pattern as a TCT opportunity We are bullish on the higher time frame, and we just broke an important structure level. I do believe that we can go higher and re-test the highs. However, this is my 4th week of forward testing, and I do not want to get fancy yet. I want to do this slowly but steadily.
USDCAD Long: Wave 3 Bull FlagUSDCAD has formed a bullflag potential continuation breakout. The APRR has broken a major bearish trendline as well, confirming potential continued bullish price action and providing an opportunity to get long toward wave 5 completion. SL is placed below recent lows with Target at the next S/R area.
CADJPY Short: Bearish Bat Trend Continuation TradeCADJPY is nearing the completion of a bearish bat on the 1 HR chart. In addition to this harmonic setup, the average period range relativity oscillator is forming a bearish Wolfe Wave at the same level. SL is placed above highs on APRR with target at the APRR WW target line.
CADJPY Short: Downtrend Continuation to Gartley CompletionThis pair has been trending down on the daily chart as shown by the D1 EMA/SMA's. Strong bearish impulse down shows weakness in the supporting trendline. This setup will capitalize on a breakout down into the completion of a bullish Gartley pattern.
Trend Continuation on AUDUSDWe have been in a downtrend and have broken many structure levels, so I immediately think bearish. The "Kill zone" Have been tested two times and each time it pushed the price lower. We made a lower low lower close (L3C) and now we are going back to that structure level. In theory one could enter right now and would still be a TCT trade. However, the R/R would not be good.
EURUSD: Two Levels on my Radar Part IIIThe Euro is still one of the main pairs on my trading radar as it has been all week. Although we've yet to reach the level where I have buying interest we have been able to take a few bearish day trades in anticipation.
(If you missed my rant yesterday on the USD Bulls and the game they played during the FOMC yesterday make sure you check out yesterday's Syndicate video. Very Sneaky!)
In today's day trading session I'll be looking for yet another bearish TCT opportunity in anticipation of us reaching our lower levels of structure support as there looks to be about a 40 pip range which is more than enough for the lower time frames.
Swing trading wise, I'm still looking to buy starting at our Green box, but not aggressively so I'll have to wait for price action to dictate my decision making as I watch it test that level.

Still Bearish on EURJPYEURJPY has been trending down for a while now, and has slowly been diverging away from the major trendline. Afterthe formation of a strong secondary trendline, the market has been putting in lower lows, and has recently formed a double top at the boundary of this secondary line. It looks as if the pair is head down towards the 119 levels, with stops above 124.00.
