Just wondering if you have this 1H pin that is forming in your sights?

I do not trade this pair because it is so choppy. I pulled a chart and I can see the pin. A long entry after such a drop is akin to swimming upstream. Not a trade I would take. Yesterdays daily bar was an IB. Price has broken that bar and is on it's way down. Maybe price will come back to 1.2967 if it gets there, a short it would be a better trade in my estimation.

Daily AUDJPY - any thoughts?

I actually took the long from 29 today for 70 pips profit.
What do you think Mr Kiss?

What do you think Mr Kiss?
Where are you wanting to enter short? Also, do you trade daily charts only right now? I am asking because I know that you are from J16 and I don't know where you are in your trading. If you will let me know, then I can advise based on where you are thus far.

I was looking to short from the break of the double/triple bottom at 29.

I typically plot SR and Fib on daily, use 4h, 1h to trade off and 15m to manage exits.

I am wondering how you determine which of your Fib lines are pivots and which are buy/sell? And how do you treat a pivot vs a buy/sell line vs one of your non-labeled lines?

Thanks,

Jacob

OK Bleek. I see. I am more of a trade off swings kind of trader. This is a range or consolidation play at least on this daily TF chart. (Blue Area)I would be the wrong guy to ask. If you ae a PF member there is much information concerning these set ups. However, I will tell you how I approach this situation using Fib Strike. I will be looking at the hourly charts and waiting for a swing low or high ( in the green area) that I can trade off of using one of my entry techniques. I am sorry if this did not help you but I don't want to steer you wrong where I am not strong.

The 50 is what I refer to as a pivot. I treat them all the same. They are just points of reference to make a trade with an entry technique. I do develop a bias if I am on one side or the other of the three center fib levels. If the PA is on the bottom I am looking for shorts and vice versa for long. If I ge a really good signal off the pivot I take it as my bias is neutral. Most of the time, price will go through these areas and then retrace back toward to give us an entry.

OK Bleek....
No that's cool thanks for your reply, I like your Fib technique, I might start incorporating it in to my trading and let you know how I get on.

If we break 1.5217 we should head on up without too much trouble to 1.5340 area which coincides with the 1.382 ext from last weeks range. I think that 1.5700 will be a very acheivable target from there. After last nights shake out I am more comfortable buying GU.

If you will live by the basics taught on J16 you will trade very similarly. You will do just fine Bleek.

61.8 Fib (recent low of ~630 to high 820) and daily SR cross perfectly at 3700 - possible target for short or long from there?

Limit set short 750, stop trailing 30, tp 700.

Just a follow up here. I just took the USDCHF trade off the 1 hr chart. I seethat FXPro has a corresponding 4hr close.

I see what you ae talking about Bleek. My target would be the 38.2 first. Price would need to retrace all the way to the 618 of the daily range. Price would need to go through two minor PPZ's before it gets ther and right now we are in an uptrend. For me conservative is best.

I guess you could class it more of a scalp, I'm at +10 so might just move stop to BE to be safe.

My main concern is 729, quite a few bounces on the 30m from here.
