There is a classic weekly pin bar forming on AUDJPY..might be interesting...
Same situation with USD JPY I believe. Also tested support at 105.91.

I am not real sure.... first of all, I do not know this pair... and why this pair has the drop in the middle instead of a big Head like GBP/JPY... but right now it is acting like the other JPY pairs and that is overall downturn... I think JPY pairs are retracing and regrouping for the next down turn...

I do know that SeekingLight would have the answer to this... and that you should ask him... it would be worth asking him...!!

Since it is weekly... it should be strong... but my target woul be to the red 62 ema... about 300 pips up.... the 62 ema is strong resistance...

What will your opinion be if it rises and penetrates into the body of the previous week..will it then be an invalid pin bar?

Let me follow up a brilliant observation by ......ME, with a dumb question. When do weekly candles form? Friday? What's weird to me is that my 4 hr candles form on the hrs of 10-2-6. My daily at 4pm.

Divergence? Would this have to do with your MA's that I see on your chart? Here is a guess----If your MA's converge then you might have a signal to take a position or get out of one.

If you are looking at the weekly time frame... you should wait until the weekly candle closes.... if daily time frame, you should wait until the close of the daily candle to gleen the Price Action info the candle gives...

When price makes lower lows and the MACD is making higher highs... that is divergence.... the MACD clues you into the force of the momentum... when signal line on slow stoch comes out of oversold... time to BUY...

Another way to look at USD/JPY... here is line chart.... see where the resistance is...??? And there's one of those danged inverted Head and Shoulder things again....

VERY much considering LONG above 107.50.... but as seeking says... this is not the time to go big.... still thinking how much I might trade...

CHF trade stopped out... Well, at least I've got that off my back today...
Hi Tiki. I'm really enjoying your trading journal - I hope that you don't mind that I hang around and don't post much (yet) since I'm still trying to get my feet wet. I had a similar analysis to your USD/CHF trade that went "wrong" after the Fed rate change. I'm trying to get a better feel for how to handle moving stops, and I was wondering if you ever considered moving your stop to the bottom of the weekly pin bar after you were in your trade. I know that you are very good at keeping your risk to a certain percent per trade, but do you ever consider moving your stop once your trade is placed if it looks like you might have placed it in the wrong place? You commented in a prior post that you probably should have placed your stop under the weekly pin and it looks like that would still have you in the trade. I'm not trying to make you wish you had done something different, but I'm learning a lot in your journal about strict risk management and was wondering if you ever move your stops to a more risky position after a trade is open.

In case you're curious about my position or in case you want to comment to help me out, I almost closed out my position when your stop was hit but I left it open since the CHF wasn't moving when the EUR was and I decided that it was worth the extra pips to risk it since I already had my set risk at the stop level below the weekly pin.

Thank you for your great journal!

-Brian

A better trade idea might have been LONG GBP/JPY to 216... that is 800 sma... almost guaranteed price will hit there... 800 is a true magnet right now... !!!

Not going to trade it... Friday... and anyway my EUR/GBP is now in profit...!!!
