So are you saying that when US equity markets are up , dollar "should" rise as well??
In most cases no. When news is good for the US it means investors will invest which usually means the Euro moves up. Initially when news comes out that is good for the US the Dollar might advance for a bit but then the Euro takes over. All of this is conditioned by the significance of the news however.

You can pretty much count on the EURUSD, for example, to follow the equity markets based on perceived value in the market or perceived risk, at least enough to trade it successfully. This is really what trading is all about in many ways, the ability to know which sentiment is most powerful at the time you are looking to trade.
I guess sometimes I just get a little confused.......Probably old thinking from stock trading back in the day .....Like when good earnings reports come out Stock "USUALLY" moves higher and vice versa for bad earnings.......To me I guess I look at the US numbers as earnings in a sense and just expected the $ to react the same way a stock would....theoretically , at least to me, it makes sense but I have learned that the market does not care what I "think" should happen which is why I do not trade on news and strictly TA.

I got a trading signal this morning for The EUR/USD , NZD/USD and USD/CAD all pointing to rise in dollar before news came out ......I hesitated on taking those positions due to the US data coming out. I took the trades but used a higher than normal SL because of that and lowered my lot size.

Still in 2 of them right now , TP on NZD/USD for a few pips .......When I saw the news come out I was like " Sweet , this confirms it" Yet , it went opposite of what it normally would do ........I have seen this many times over the past year and thought I would throw it out here and see what others had to say.... thanks for all your feedback!!!

Will let you know how the trades turn out

That looks about right . . . on the Monthly UsdCad . .

Quoting jarroo
I understand the base method but I like to use it when its confluenced with S/R levels. . .maybe that's what your saying??

All I'm saying is that this a great Monthly level for not only being at parity (1.0000) but also in the structural aspects of Support and Resistance . .in this case, HCR/LCS levels. .

Price doesn't like to hang around here for very long .. as you can see historically ..

Jim
I understand those that say, .."its easy to show after the fact . "

This was shown before the fact many times. .obvious you're not following the Thead or too lazy to research some past posts ..or another agenda ..who knows.

So please do your research before you PM me with silly commments . . Thank you ..

There are other posts where I talk about the Monthly Cad in Feb and March. .can you find them?

Sorry for this Thread interruption.

Jarroo, a question.

I definitely will take or look at that HCR level if or when Price gets there, Quezoy . .

I just didn't mark it on my chart. I try to clean up my charts a bit before I post them.

Here's some other charts on the NzdUsd . .

Hey guys. I'm not exactly see any good setups, but the only one I'm looking at is NZDCAD and was just want some comments. Looking to buy around the 80 mark, if my bar closes above the previous bar. Good confluence with the upwards trendline and a fib. Oh,the round number too.

well i am here to learn, and the best and quickest way is to learn from my mistakes :

took this one because i was playing the outbreak and the beautiful "cup and handle" pattern, but without confirmation ...after my entry the pair formed something like a pinbar and reversed . Will i get punished for being inpatient? (mhhh, of course i will, but how would you handle that from now?)

Hey HC . . good eye and nice chart .. my feed is a bit different but not by much.

Excellent . .well done . .you got the levels down. .nice Daily confirmation. . .great target, HCR . . its great that you took profit there. You could have taken 100% profit there because if PBT&CA this HCR level we can always re-enter . .

My feed didn't have a Daily confirmation . .my HCR was 80.90 /80.83 . .damn gaps .

If you look zoom out a bit, you can see that we had LCS level (06/07 April). .this lines up nicely with the 80.90 HCR . .Strength....
Cheers Jim

I am loving picking these levels and am now trying to put together 3 pieces of confluence to go with them.
It makes sense now to take full profit at these FTA levels now that you mention about re-entering on the PBTCA as I gave back 50 pips when it came back to break even which is silly.
I am learning slowly but thanks for your clear explainations
