Olu, nice work here, hope it continues for you.

re USDCHF, my analysis says downward momentum also

but would also like to see price retrace back to the yellow circle area, for better short entry 0.9700ish.........perhaps will not happen

good luck!

Thanks for your input PeterE. CHF is strong across the board at the moment. I was in the eurchf. And now I am looking at the gbpchf. If we get a strengthening of the chf plus weakening of the gbp we have mega pips on our hands

BTW I wont quote you

Warning to all readers. All trades talked about here are not a recommendation to trade. It is just a thread for traders with a common interest to jostle ideas and to be accountable.

Hi, What pair are u working?
Welcome to the thread. I agrere with the usdchf trade. Although some of the trades that look in here have already carted 100 pips or so already. The target is the double bottom and we are on our way already.

gbpchf is what i am looking at now...

We are seeing dollar weakness everywhere. A breakdown out of the channel will take us back to 77 area. This will be good for the euro and gbp if it happens

RSI below the water line - bearish

I have uploaded the monthly dollar index previously and that was bullish within a triangle. So maybe it is a matter of retesting support and taking off for the dollar index

Forgot to add that we are sitting on support at this juncture on dollar index so the usdchf and other anti-dollar pairs might struggle around here. Whether we eventually continue downwards as per the $index is anyones guess (sorry, analysis

Have you seen this analysis of the eurchf. I got it from an FXPath article link from FF. If this chart plays out all we have made from this pair will look like peanuts. All we will need is staying power...

I dont know why the chart is not enlarging for closer inspection when you click on it but the gist of the matter is 'Neeeeeew Lows'
