AUDCAD Short Trade SetupA short trade opportunity recently presented itself on the aussie-loonie trading chart.
This is occasioned by the bearish order block which acts as a resistance zone preventing any further upward price movement, the bearish engulfing candlestick pattern just inside the bearish order block and the fair value gaps in the uptrend prior to the price reversal.
The upward FVGs create a price imbalance which price will try to compensate for by moving downwards. These three confluences indicate the likelihood of a downward price movement.
With an entry price of 0.92390 or thereabouts, a stop order at 0.94059 (just above the most recent swing high indicated by the pivot point at 0.93772) and a profit target (0.88618) close to the level of one of the lowest most recent swing lows (just above the bullish order block which acts as a support zone to prevent any further downward price movement), we could potentially be looking at a 2.26 RR ratio or higher.
That's 166.9 PIPS risk (SL) and 377.2 PIPS target (TP).
Alternatively, you could decide not to set any TP and just trail your stops to make the most out of the market.
As always, please apply appropriate risk management depending upon your trading account balance, your risk appetite and other important factors.
