UC
USDCADas seen with this breakdown now looking at the overall price action on UC, i would be looking to take this long once we get the 3rd touch on that trend line we can see the double bottom area course this can go from there but i think it will push below that zone and then move from the outer structure.
UC Weekly Classic Cup & Handle or not?Looks like a classic UC Classic Cup & Handle to me with EURCAD and GBPCAD at lower levels and CADCHF and CADJPY residing at higher levels, this C&H pattern could very well confirm its continuation of the already set uptrend.
However, in the exceptional case that USD devalues at the same time and at the same pace or faster, UC would drop from where that happens, possibly drawing the same structure as it did January 2016, swing up to 1.47 and then down to 1.24
USDCAD Short After NFPUSDCAD Short - Daily Timeframe
Entry - 1.305
TP - 1.285 - 200 pips
SL - 1.315 - 100 pips
Disclaimer- I will ordinarily avoid trading around or near NFP, but I'm making an exception this time around, which could turn out to be a bad move. I've been in and out of shorts on USDCAD for a while now, but this looks like an opportunity to capitalize on a larger move down.
Fundamentals:
- Oil prices continue to rally with an unsettled US-Iran situation.
- US Hourly earnings and NFP numbers missed projections.
- Canadian unemployment rate and new change in employment beat expectations.
- Central bank interest rates are even at 1.75%.
- Majority of retail traders on Myfxbook (86%) are long.
Technicals:
- Price broke out and retested a long-term ascending trendline.
- Price on the daily timeframe is below the Ichimoku Cloud, 200 MA (blue line), and 30 EMA (green line).
- Made LL last week.
We'll see how it goes. It's possible I'll have missed an opportunity to enter at a more favorable price. Didn't open a huge position- risking 2% if SL is hit.
Thanks for looking,
