The Trade is a good Trade and Risk reward seems good as it is the top of the consolidation range on the drop down..

Also.. The Bear flag should be mean a movement of no more than 8860 should be seen or this invalidates the flag.

The first take profit for this trade would be 8783 and 2nd target 8740...

Good Day My Maths says we still have a bit of time...I will wait for the flag to form... before I take any positions...

Have a good Day

Hi Geppyg,

Can I ask what system do you use to check the trading range, first tp, second tp, etc?

you said we still have a bit of time. you mean we'll go higher for further entry.

I've done one stupid thing and shorted this pair at .8795 and now getting jitters. Will scale in at .8825 and S/L for the entire thing would be at .8873.

If I hit the S/L, I will be when I started.

I took a short @ 0.8835 on the drop this afternoon. Just came back from dinner and it seems its retracing back up further...

The only thing that is making me feel slightly uncomfortable is the rising gold prices

Sorry puks for the delay in reply.....as I said when a pole is formed

we had pole formation from 8928 to to 8781 which is = 147 pips...

A Flag should be no more than 60% of the pole as this is called the tip or the flag is considered invalid...

60% of the move from 8928 to 8781 takes us to 88 pips
ie a value of approx 8968
8960 to 8968 is the stop area

Now for limits...

8983 is the bottom of the consolidation range....so that is tp 1
and 8940 is price support zone for PA..

As simple as that...hope this helps both puks and golden child...

Have a Good Day

Personally I believe in extreme Pa and Extreme positions on chart technical..hence I will always have a reason behind my trades..

Personally I will be waiting for the 8850-8860 so my risk reward is good...
If I miss a trade so be it...

At least I have more of a gurantee on trades--This morning trades were perfect with a 120 pips ...you cant ask more than that....and now a flag...gets even better

Take care

45 min to NY opening and AUD has had a bad rate announcement so who knows
the NY reaction to aud news certainly it will not positive and no one wants
to keep aud in his poket before NY opening I think sell could be wisdom

I'm long from 0.8785 and plan my TP at 0.8860. I moved my SL to 0.8820, because I'm wasn't sure that it won't fall down.
Gold is going up, so I think AUD/USD will do the same.

AUD dropped over 140 pips yesterday, and since then has held support due to the fact that equities have been strong(nikkei up 160 pts and london is up 25 pts), that combined with gold and oil higher and if they can hold, the risk trade is still in play, meaning there will be more buying of AUD and NZD. also, dow and s&p futures are up currently 2 hrs before NY open. obviously, IMO...

Yes that is correct any move above this invalidates the bearish flag
