This trade on Euro played out as expected even though it was NFP day.

Break in market structure (blue line)
Price rotates back up to a FVG in a premium area ie. above the 50% equilibrium level.

I will continue to look for lower prices.

CAD/CHF

3rd trading week of September and price is approaching the 50% level (0.6179) of the POSSIBLE August monthly rejection candle.
On the weekly chart the opening weekly price of 0.61793 is a level I am monitoring.
Since the spike low on the daily (5th August), and subsequent rally, price has drifted lower.
I am interested to see the reaction if price reaches the aforementioned level.

Still going sideways with an upward bias now.
Nothing for me to do. Still watching.

As expected.
Price now retesting a potential bearish OB on the daily.

Break in structure on the weekly.
FVG on the daily as a possible selling area on a decent retrace.

Didn't get a setup I liked much higher up.
Direction was right though.
Looks like price targeting equal lows.

Euro/USD

Weekly view.

Liquidity sweep into a bullish order block overlapping a FVG.

Breaker block overlapping a FVG topside.

IF 1.0750/1.0800 holds target will be 1.1000

Lesson learnt. When you buy below 1.08 and price gets above 1.09 book some profit.
Especially going into a presidential election.

AUD/NZD off the watch list. I don't like sideways movement.
Ditto for CAD/CHF.
Better opportunities elsewhere.

Euro/JPY long still open.
