This one looks better. Where is the second one? Here it is but still makes no sense. I was talking only about the RIGHT part of it. From MID FEBRUARY into MID APRIL. Comprendo?

Yeah...

I was still trying...

It's just that when I read your "final" post, it was too late...

Sorry.

Ok,

I got it.

This one is very tricky. Unlike others, it's rather small and one of the bars/candles penetrates one of the lines making it even harder (april 2nd.)


Having that said, the break wasn't made. How to play this tricky one?

Indeed, very tricky.

Cheers,
JP.

I don't know. By trials and errors I guess. The only way.

It looks a bit better on daily though. But still irregular.

I have just explained it on yesterday's example on 5 min and 1h EJ charts. I took most of the intraday trading range yesterday by buying at 153.86 with a limit order and taking profit at 156.39 manually. I posted it a couple of pages back. Post #1763.

Just an example. Take a look how accurate and precise the 1h USD/JPY chart is. There is absolutely no need to trade with wide stops if you know how it works.
Igrok,
can I know what is the significance of that bottom TL if there since it cuts through some price bars in the middle.
Thanks!!

I've got an eery feeling that the market is getting set for a major USD comeback. I would say that there is a probability for a huge range today once again on majors and JPY crosses. If this is going to be the case then today's range on the USD/JPY might be something like 105.00 - 109.00.
But all of this is only a feeling without any reasonable explanations or confirmed trading signals.

I explained already. There was a minor short-term divergence targeting that particular price.

Igrok,

When we have a gap opening on sunday, does your trade plan for the day usually involve the pair you are trading closing the gap at some point later on in the day.
Thanks!!!

Depends on the overall technical picture. In this case closing the gap first was a must.

Yes. Perhaps AUD has the most interesting technical outlook at the moment. It is currently forming a symmetrical broadening triangle on daily. If it is to continue doing just that, then the next target might be somewhere at around .7660-70.

hi Igrok,great thread,
can you enlarge on how you manage your positions?? do you trade the pair from line to line, if so how do you deal with the mid point in patterns where price can reverse? or is it more discretionary?? thanx
PATIENCE... DISCIPLINE

Hello Mr Igrok, hope you having a good time today.

Wanted to ask you what is your take on the USD/CAD. I might be observing a possible bullish divergence on the montly, targeting high of 2007 @ 1.1875
Price is inside a possible rising wedge formation on the weekly , as the descending weekly TL from 2002 held the rise and its comming down towards the wedges LTL. But it looks that it might not reach this TL due to support. On the monthly there might be a diamond like pattern, but i can be totally wrong. So i believe that price is going up. But once again...

Looking forward in hearing from you.

Cheers.

CAD is the most boring at the moment. Historically it's also the least volatile pair among majors. Have no idea what it is going to do near-term. On the very long run 1.42-43 is a must.
