Like it. Took the break to the downside on aud/jpy instead.

Yet another setup on looney today, in the beginning of the day market flipped it's trend two times, making short position preferable, which was taken on the retracement to middle of the range (#18.4 template), then first obvious target was an old unfilled divergence, which also was a signal to go long with #18.4 template just on bigger scale monthly, weekly, lets see if this one will work...

P.s. eur/usd allso presented a nice #18.4 targeting a old bearish divergence.

Better choice, I guess, was trading the weekly low breakout towards the low of the month using the 'short' term trend targeting the low of the month or ADR.

This break would mean a change in the weekly trend. Usually these breakouts pop like a champagne bottle.

Well, catching those breaks provide great opportunities. So by knowing the 'extremes', one can place a sell stop, below some of those lows(day/week/month) considering, of course, if the high/low of the day is within ones acceptable risk as to place an acceptable SL.

At the moment it breaks, you will be in the exact entry place of the 'main move'.

Like that, you can catch "early" moves with risk that you can manage.

You don't actually need to know what will happen BEFORE hand. Think about the other possibility. If and when the high of he month would be taken out, than a buy stop order could be placed there as long as the R:R is worth the 'bet'.

The swissey might give us an opportunity to have an early look at the trend change.

We have the high of the week pretty close to the high of the month.

Taking out weeks high is opportunity #1.
Taking out months high is opportunity #2.

Currently price is trading closer to the tops although the trend is DOWN.

Therefore, breakout in the direction of the NEW moves could be nice setup depending if an acceptable SL level can be placed.

18.4s on USDCAD, CADCHF and AUDCHF.

All of them with aligned trends (day/week/month). Lets see if NFP does not ruin them.

Look on the Daily chart. You will see that we need a lower right border that perhaps will be formed in a few days.

Lets see what the low of the week will be. Probably that will determine the lower border.

The green line touch (as a swing low) would determine a good symmetry for this one.

Looking good so far.
