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.

EURUSD 1 Hour: 3 Advanced Patterns Setting Up/ Ideas for a VideoComing off a massive week in the Syndicate it’s somewhat refreshing to have only taken a single trade this week. Well two if you count the AUDUSD Bull bat that just filled a few hours ago (60min). Either way a slow week often means that there are a lot of potential patterns going through there setup legs and the EURUSD is a prime example. Three potential patterns on this pair, on this time frame. A potential Bullish Gartley, a Bearish Gartley, and a Bearish Cypher. Not much on the news front until tomorrows ECB Press Conference and our normal Thursday Unemployment Claims, so we’ll see how things pan out. Also, as many of you know I put out a weekly trading video on my youtube page every Thursday. www.youtube.com Well this week I’m a little short on ideas, so if you have something that you’d like to be discussed do me a favor and leave your comment under this video and I’ll go through them before tomorrow’s recording starts. Good luck in the markets traders and remember… PLAN YOUR TRADE, & TRADE YOUR PLAN Akil Stokes Chief Currency Analyst at Trade Empowered Click here for 20+ hours of FREE Training tradeempowered.com

EURUSD: Potential Bullish Gartley Pattern w/ Great Risk v RewardNot a lot on my radar this morning which is perfect seeing how Monday’s are typically days where I let the markets wake up after the weekend. One pair that I’ve been continuing to watch closely has been the EURUSD which has provided a lot of opportunity over the past month or so. The chart before you shows a potential bullish Gartley pattern completing extremely close to the “X” leg. As I shared with my Syndicate members in this morning’s trading video, this is a really good thing, because it puts us in a situation where we don’t have to risk as much and can potentially receive a greater reward if the trade goes in our direction. I usually don’t take patterns too seriously until the “B” leg is broken so there may be a few bullish opportunities beforehand, but that’s something I won’t be interested in until tomorrow. Good luck in the markets this week traders and as always, if you like this post PLEASE HIT the THUMBS UP button, and if you have any question, comments or would like to share your views on this pair don’t hesitate to type in below.

While PA approaching the 2.000, what will PA do ?If the pricing is approaching much more the 2.000 on this pair, what could happen ? We don't know but here's my analysis of the last time we channeled around that price in October 2007 to end of December 2008. An almost complete year of constant Daily battle. The more i'm looking at it, the more I see it like a space movie where a ennemy is approaching the quadran limits trying to make an entry into the foreign territory, thus making finally a massive invasion after a final battle. Reminds me of Battlestar Gallactica TV series.

EURUSD: 2 Structure Trades for Shorts Pt. 2To follow up on last week's EURUSD idea, the pair has finally reached higher level of structure that I liked during yesterday's Euro rally. We've now double topped at that level and have broken structure to the downside setting up for a potential 2618 opportunity for those traders looking for a conservative approach to get involved. We do have A LOT of news on the table today including an ECB press conference and a USD ADP Non-Farm Employment Change number. There aren't many expectations from the ECB this morning as nothing is expected to be said in regards to the monetary policy but there may be some Greece based questions during the Q&A and anything regarding Greece has been moving the markets as of late. Before ADP number which is released before the ECB press conference should be of importance as traders will look to use it to predict Friday's massive news day. There are rumors floating around about "ditching" the rate hike due to global worries so the very bullish sentiment that we had on the USD may not be as strong as before. "It may be impossible for the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates until the rest of the world economy improves... the dismal performance of first-quarter U.S. gross domestic product may signal a more permanent slowdown, and that the Fed needed to enter a phase of "watchful waiting" before raising rates." Anyway enough of the fundamentals, the technicals gave me a sell yesterday so I'm still looking short on this pair but it may be an interesting day similar to the Aussie (for those of you in the Syndicate program). Below is a link to the video where I originally discussed the trade setup. The EURUSD talk starts about 11 minutes into it. VIDEO ON EURUSD TRADE www.youtube.com Akil Stokes www.TradeEmpowered.com

AUDUSD: Structure Long with Hidden DivergenceSorry for being quiet this week trading view but I've been running things on the road. Also the markets have been pretty quiet this week so there just hasn't been a lot to share. Today seems to be a little bit better and I wanted to bring a potential buying opportunity on AUDUSD to your attention. I'm already long this pair from earlier in the week. My position has been doing absolutely nothing but sitting there, but with our recent movement in price action another opportunity has appeared as well. This structure based opportunity can be looked at like a 2618. Price action has come down to previous structure support and held, followed by a HHHC and is now retracing. The HHHC gives us a bullish rotation and the present retracement is a perfect chance to hop aboard. Also the fact that the RSI is showing us hidden divergence gives me some added confidence and potentially added points for those of you that trade the Combined Technical Scoring System (CTS). The risk reward looks good on this trade no matter where you look to get long, so the only question left is "How Can I Get Long?" And the answer to that should be simple. What does your trading plan say are your rules for entry on this type of trade? "But Akil, what if I don't have a rule for this in my trading plan?" Well I'm sorry but you shouldn't be taking the trade then. With structure being at the core of my trading philosophy I'd be looking for targets at resistance & stops below support. Best of luck if you do get involved and until next time. "Plan Your Trade, Trade Your Plan" Akil Stokes www.Tradeempowered.com

GBPUSD: Bearish TCTThis trade was originally brought to our attention this weekend in Jason Stapleton's Forex Market Preview video "Studying Harmonics" ( www.youtube.com ) As I take a look at it today price action (after creating a LLLC) has retested the previous level of support which should now act as resistance. In addition to the structure level we also have a Fibonacci ratio cluster of retracements and an inversion. Lastly, we have hidden divergence on the RSI which is a sign for trend continuation. Of course when I say a sign, it doesn't mean it will happen everytime, but it's something that we can add to our score when breaking down this trade.
