Although it looks very bearish.. But I still expect it will break the high today targeting 1.03 and above..
I bought UC as deep as I could ... @ 1.0069 ... catching the falling knife ... they said ... (Can u pls show me yr projection in chart ? Im afraid I couldn't see that 1.03 , coz ... Im shorting it starting from 1.0219 ... and your projection made me shiveringgg ... , it might override my shortssss ...! thanks ! ... however ... Im secured with +1,064 pips in U/C right now ...)

For this scenario, I use calculation instead of chart..
223+(0.3*(223-54)) = 273
223+(0.5*(223-54)) = 307

But this only valid if the support yesterday at 54 is not broken.. Actually I expect the last up before correction of this pair happen yesterday, but it didn't..

Now what cause my doubt is the volatility that Euro create, it cause all the pair swing up and down very fast.. Yesterday Euro cut interest rate and yet eurusd only drop a while and it rally up and usdcad moving down.. The market getting strange..

atm ...

US SPX 500 ... UP, and US data are favouring USD. Currently ... U/C is facing previous supports became resistances 1.0120-1.0090.

Closing all scalpers now... Leave those top and bottom,... which one will be over-rided by market.

Greece drops referendum ... make-ups !

CAD data in 5.5hrs might be trilled ... projected by consensus to favour USD. In "confluence" with HandsFX's technical projection .... , going to recheck my tech ...

Hi Vennd,

From my Technical point of view:
1. Currently its stopped by EMA 40 1.0120 (EMA 40 usually strong and harder to break)
2. Second resistance at 1.0130-1.0140 (if break above this, then it will be the base line support for it to go up higher)
3. If break number 2, it should easily go to 1.0180-1.0190
4. If break number 3 then 1.0200-1.0220 will be the last strong resistance
5. After that it will fly up easily..

If keep fail break the ema 40, then it could be drop below support yesterday.. I will try post chart when I back home later..

What's your view on NFP tonight, will it boost up usd? (usdcad, usdjpy up) and eurusd down?

ok ! thanks for that tech analysis. I will try to spot where to start hitting it up and down ...

NFP ... consensus says ... fcking down, man ! ... They say ... CAD down ... USD down ... so who is going up ? ... Small Retailers ... like us

Don't hope UJ will go down lower than 75.40 , BOJ will smack yr face if u try that . That're EU & UJ charts ... I helped BOJ to intervene and later they allow me to short it (kidding).

It unable to break point 3 after multiple tries.. Although I believe it should go higher, but I cleared out at 1.0180-1.0190 to reduce risk and enjoy better weekend and wait next entry.. Trade with care..

i see. i decide to trade one way now.. so i am not going to short USD/CAD but will only buy on dip and i think your short is not bad, just need to be careful have s/l above 1.0230-40 cause if it breaks 1.0220 it may up aggressively.
