Quoting nwo-trader
GBPUSD has treated me really well these past two weeks :-) Added into my position with the Monday daily IB on the 1.60 BRN. Trailing my stops up now, don't want to give much of this back at all. Lower lows made on the weekly/monthly charts, weekly descending TL breached, more upside is possible. Honestly think we may eventually make higher highs on the weekly/monthly charts.
well done bro! shows us a chart, a chart speak more words then anything else...

Sure, some of the other trades were entered with lower time frame PA. Kind of embarrassed to show today's trade and the fact that I didn't get all my stops moved up before market close.

I've only got until Sept 29th until IBFX closes out my account - was notified a few weeks ago that they are no longer servicing residents of Ontario, Canada. Kind of bummed, this accounts 1 year anniversary is coming up, and it has grown considerably. :-) Oh well onto the next broker(s).

Mike, I need your opinion on this PB setup. It looks like a nice PB with a long nose at a swing high. You mentioned looking for Pa that jumps off the screen, this one does to me. What do you think

The PB looks of a decent size to me. Maybe its the consolidation area to the left that might cause some problems ?

It's the close. Weak close. Closed above previous bars close.
That depends what feed you use. Mine closed barely red.

Guys!
What do you do if the PBT&CA/CB but only a few pips distance from the HCR/LCS or almost at the same level. Do you open a position at the market price or just ignore that signal? Often not so clean the signal.
What do you do in this case?
In such a case I would look out for two things: space to the left and maybe some continuation pattern below like a PB or BUOB at the bottom of the breakout range. If both show up I'm more likely to take the trade. That said I'm only trading Jarroo's method for about 2-3 weeks now. But breakouts in general have a higher probability when trading into space and maybe a strong PA before the breakout.

I know the govt basically gave a free pass to the markets yesterday but that's still a bit unrealistic. When markets get this hot this fast something usually has to give. At least to reset things. SO let's see where we can watch for trade ideas. Same spots as the previous eur/usd chart I sent out. And as well we can look for both longs and shorts since these areas are highly confluenced. Of course long's seem more logical since we are now above major support at least in the short term.
I was thinking why so many pairs took off without me yesterday. That's probably the reason.

Very nice, Gudras. I moved my stop to BE pretty early and was stopped out before it took off.

Some trades for next week which are on my radar, based on engulfing candles bullish or bearish.
EUR.NZD - bearish engulfing candle, but we trading into the 50% fib and some HCR levels.
AUD.CHF - bearish engulfing candle, but is in a box with 200 ema below and LCS.
NZD.CHF - bearish engulfing candle, but 200 ema below and LCS. But more room for movement before running into FTA.
CAD.CHF - bearish engulfing candle, but 200 ema below and LCS. FTA 0.94200 area. Already in this one, retrace to LCR would be a better entry.

The observation I have is there is quite a strong HCR as the FTA just below the low of the PB. You would want to get to BE fairly quick, if price does not break through this level it could be heading back up.

eur ,nzd is a buob not a beob patter running into supply zone so better to wait for a breakout above that level

USDCAD D1


COT and retail positiong is at extremes. That D1 PB might be sign of profit taking and there is over net 100000 contracts to be liquidated on the short side in Futures market. Retail on the other hand is on the other side with large amount of losing positions on the long side. While EU / GU were rising UC was going in opposite direction on friday which tells a lot about the supply/demand state on this pair.
Will it end up as a common "sell the fact, buy the rumor" event? time will tell but next week will be interesting for sure.

Cheers & have a great weekend all
