Price is extended far beyond it's longer term average, the 200 moving average, providing more support that price should return...
Just thought I would post an observation about the performance of Bitcoin. For the technical analysts among us, this is proof that Dow Theory doesn't just apply to stocks. Charles Dow published some observations over a hundred years ago that linked human behaviour and financial markets. The recent surge and subsequent fall in Bitcoins value clearly shows the...
Pennant pattern has formed on this potential pullback. The weekly time frame shows nice steady downtrend with expanding volume indicating the higher time frame has commitment of sellers to continue the downtrend. Volume on the daily timeframe has contracted in line with a pullback forming the pennant pattern. Volume has began to expand at the end of the...
Nice developed down trend with a pullback wedge pattern forming. Volume is also contracting on the pullback indicating buying in the pullback is weakening. Enter if price breaks below the wedge pattern. Target is the same distance from the previous pullback, unless a pivot point price action appears.
RSI made new lows whilst price continues to make new highs. This indicates buying momentum is easing. Price is above the 20 moving average, indicating price may be pausing for a further push to the upside or reverse for a new downtrend. If RSI breaks below the 50 line then momentum will be weighted towards a bearish move. Keep on eye on this pair.
Pros: Both countries forecast fundamentals are evenly matched therefore I'm not considering this to be a factor. The Euro is appreciating across most other currencies whilst the Canadian dollar is mixed, therefore there is slight weight towards this pair to continue the uptrend. From a technical perspective we have a bunch of positives. Price has pulled back...

Fundaments of UK are looking good, with forecast inflation and interest rates both expected to rise over the next 12 months. These factors do influence a currency.

I have been watching the CAD pairs recently because of recent news about the balance of trade deficit making a record high. This is bad news for the CAD, looking at the balance of trade historically, it is trending into more deficit. The reason this is bad news is because it means Canada needs to sell more CAD dollars and buy mostly US and Euros to cover the...
RSI has made a bearish divergence on this pair indicating momentum of the recent uptrend is weakening. RSI has made a new technical downtrend. Recent inflation forecast show Mexico's inflation to almost halve over the next 12 months which is generally good for the currency. Also, the interest rate differentials are massively in favour of the Peso. The US is...
RSI is showing a bullish divergence and has made a technical uptrend. The RSI divergence is telling us the US dollar is weakening on this pair and the Kiwi is strengthening. Could this be institutions rebalancing their portfolios in anticipation of a new Kiwi uptrend? I would wait for a pullback to a fib level in order to get a good price then enter long. Exit...

Stop placed...
Price action shows the buyers are loosing commitment to push price above the indicated resistance level for the past few weeks. The RSI is also showing divergence to the downside which means the previous buying momentum that was driving the uptrend is weakening, indicating in advance that a reversal may be looming. The other factor weighing in that will...
Daily time frame shows price within previous support zone. Hourly time frame shows price rejected support twice and potentially third. RSI indicator showing momentum to the upside. Based on the double bottom pattern, support area and RSI I am biased to the upside.
