USDZAR trade ideas
Rand looks like is about to fallThe Rand has been range bound against the USD dollar Between
the R18 – R17.90 support zone and R19.30 – 19.60 resistance zone.
In the last couple weeks, the Rand printed two inverse hammer
candles.
Those inverse hammer candle to me signal that the Rand buying
that brought the price back to the R18-R17.90 support zone. Is
slowing down and losing some strength.
Couple with that a bullish divergence pattern. Signal to me that the
Rand is about to turn against the Dollar. Back to the R19.30
resistance
ZAR optimismThe rand is enjoying its post-election optimism and the broad-based decline in the dollar is adding strength to the currents. A break below the 18.12 support will confirm the move lower towards 17.86. The fact that the pair tested, but couldn’t hold, levels above the 61.8% Fibo at 18.56 and the 50-day MA at 18.38 is rand positive coupled with the fact that precious metal and copper prices are holding firm.
Locally, the markets have the latest SA mining and manufacturing results for the month of May to look forward to which are expected to come in strong off the back of another month free of loadshedding!
USD/ZAR LONG(BUY) TRADE IDEALooking to take potential Long positions seeing as the previously formed H1 Supply zone has been retested which also confluences with the inner M45 & M30 Supply zone which further confirms the strong Bullish momentum still at bay.
USDZAR Continuations ShortLooing for a pullback into key supply zone to short lower. Inflation data may come in flat or higher and cause a pullback into key level. HTF structure shows successful distribution of price.
USDZAR-BUY strategy 4-hourly chartThe previous update worked well, but not reaching the expected objective. Now we have stilol some pressure, since we have not been able to establish above 18.2350. The stochastic is low but still negative.
Strategy BUY @ 18.0650 - 18.0850 and place SL below 17.9750 and take profit @ 18.2350.

USD/ZAR BEARISH PULLBACK?Services PMI shows that the economy is weak so a pullback it is necessary we are still bearish on USD/ZAR
Long USDZAR (short-term)The recent political events have proven to bring back some confidence in SA. However, it needs to coincide with the financial data. Look to add another position if it goes to the R17.50 level.
USDZAR There are chances according to my view that this pair will continue to rise upside. for that case might have a chance to buy the pullback if we retrace to 0.50 - 0.618 fib lavels, if however the break below the zone. then might look for option 2 zone.

USDZAR-SELL strategy 3-hourly chartThe market still feels the uncertainty, and that makes it a difficult task to get the direction right. Wwe have had SL executed, but overall, we still should see lower levels. There is no confirmation as yet that we see lower, but the run up from the 17.90s low, shouyld still need some corrective action. The stochastic is high, and turning. so we try again.

USDZAR-SELL strategy 4-hourly chartIts good to be neutral sometimes, especially lot's of uncertainties due to the cabinet formations. The market trades erratic, and it does not have a clear view on where to go.
For now, we see we have move sharply upwards, and feel this may be running out of steam again. the mid-point is somewhere 18.1300-18.1500 I think.
Strategy SELL @ 18.3500-18.4150 and place SL tight above 18.5150 and profit order let's say near 18.1950.
