Aussie,

Note the association between COT index extreme and reversal/deep correction

Hi Shahab,

Can you interpret the above COT's please for beginers like me.

Does it mean that as AUD has reached its extreme of 100 it will be moving down what about the net increase in Longs from last week from 48k to 54k isn't that positive meaning more AUD gains ? I am confused.

Also positive cable of 5k with COT at 100 means more cable gains ?

Thanks in advance

Shane

Despite the big drop in the week, the commercial traders keep adding shorts and the large traders keep buying.

The small trader that usually are on the wrong side on the tops and bottoms still have some ground until became heavy buyers.


Maybe we can see some correction on this week moviment before a real drop on EURUSD and GBPUSD

Regarding the big drop, the COT-numbers released on Friday don't include the action from Tuesday or later.

That's right Rush.

Like any other indicator it have some lagging.

However it's a weekly indicator. 3 days lagging on a 3 month trend doesn't change so much the perspective of the data.

I do think that in the medium term we will see more downside and i'm not buying any upside movement right now. I'm just making a short term guess.

Anyway it's just my opinion. Nothing sure about that.

PRZ?
Only issue I can see is that if, for example, you enter at the 38.2 with SL at 50, then why not enter at 50, it's also a resistance.
ENter at 50, your SL is at 61.8 but if that's gets stopped out then do you also enter off 61.8? It could get nasty very quickly better to wait for a bias change but then you miss the fib level entry.
Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ)
you should determine the important level (suit cluster ) in which there is high probability of reversal and then set the stop loss right after next fib level, if market hit the stop maybe its better to set aside , but its all on you and your system.
good luck

Hi Shahab,

In your Swissy chart you mention that an ascending broadening formation has a 66% probability of breaking out downward. Where did you get this statistic from, if you don't mind me asking? Proprietary research, or some public source?

Thanks!
It's not about how much you make, it's about how much you don't lose.

Hi,
Nice call on U/Cad well done, how did you get 1.0250 ? I've got 1.0280 on my chart and traded that, your 1.0205 was impressively accurate.
