Hi,

After having mixed results in my first year of trading, I am making a small effort to share my views on the market; both fundamentally and technically.

A good and healthy discussion is encouraged on this thread and knowledge/information sharing is the main goal of this thread.

Hopefully we can all learn from each other as we go.

Good luck.
I am seeing a long opportunity in GBPJPY at 131.

It is a daily support S1.
100% retracement of the big fall on Friday
Support has held quite firm in previous occasions.

Fundamentally, JPY crosses are due for a short term corrective bounce so I am looking to buy GBPJPY in 2 lots.

Parameters are below:

Buy 2L GBPJPY at 131.00 (Limit Order)
Stop loss for the whole - 129.50 (150 pips)
T1 - 131.40 (Move stop to B/E when we hit T1) - 23.6 Fib retracement level.
T2 - 133.20 (Weekly Pivot and 20 period SMA on 4H chart + 38.2% retracement level

Chart attached.

Good luck.

Thanks buddy. I thought it was not a good itea to share my views on your "soon to be professional" thread and hence I opened this up.

FWIW - AUD is ripe to go higher. We have a triple bottom at .8070-80 area.

I will post charts once I get home.

Hey Mate,
It's fine if you wanna post something there, as we've got two , one for discussion one for signals. We need to update the signals though.

But in my experience, if you gather your post in one place, like what Amyc and Saxon do, you will improve on your trading skills as you can go back and see what went right and what went wrong with your analysis.
GMAE,

I was away for the long weekend. Just back last night and now back to trading from London session today (Tuesday 15th June).

I am not infront of my charts but I have fundamental views on eco events tonight.

Cable :-Cable's inability to close above a major 1.4760-80 zone has reaffirmed my view that bearish trend is still in place. I am expecting a much weaker CPI numbers today which could push cable back towards 1.46-1.4560 zone. But we could, in all liklihood, see a push higher towards 1.4820-40 zone right before the data. I would be selling there rather than buying the break.

If the CPI numbers are hotter than forecast, I will immediately my shorts, no matter what the P&L is.

Euro :- German ZEW data is due to be released today and I am expecting it to be weaker as well.

If the eco data comes out as per my expectations, we could see 1.45 infront of cable and 1.20 infront Euro within next 16-18 hours.

Cheers
G'day,

HI Puks,
Good to see your thread. Will definately be a frequent visitor. I hope I can learn from your skills.

Good luck.
Find a job that you love and you dont have to work again in your life.
I am seeing a head and shoulder formation in Cable in 4H charts. The typical rally in cable following the budget is something to be sold into.

Here is my chart attached which is self explaining.

I have started to scale in position from current level (market price 1.4810) and will add one more at 1.4880 (if it gets there) with hard stop at 1.4960

Good luck.

I am getting bullish USD based on Moving Average cross over on 4H chart. This is usually a trend following pattern and when confirmed, is good for a good 200-300 pips. Also USDX seem to have formed a double bottom in medium term, IMHO.

Lets see how this plays out.

chart attached - self explanatory.

Cheers

I am still holding this cable short. It came admonishingly close to hitting the S/L but I am still in the trade. Its quite frustrating but I will hold on to this.

Cheers
