Closed ALL SHORT GBP/CAD positions and went LONG in light of Carney's firing up the GBP as well as the Crude situation in the cycle. PLUS there's a pretty nasty looking BULLISH ENGULFING on the Month chart of this pair. Call me crazy...but stops are in and I snagged a nice entry LONG. Let errrrr RRRRRRIIIIIp!!

My views, looks strong bull controlled market as of now. My chart is attached with detailed analysis of mine. We have established support @ 1.5880-1.5900 handle, but I am looking at 1.6280 handle where there was previous resistance which can act as support now, a perfect 3 drive harmonic move can start from this price level, & there are also many Fib & Fib extension confluence over there. But its market & it can do anything irrespective of how many odds we stack in our favor. Target is well above at 1.6880 handle so its very high R:R play. Cheers!...
I have too longed it as I was waiting for this LVL to play it. Have scaled out few & left few open & kept SL at its initial place so that if it is hit I come out BE, & will scale in more if the momentum persist. Its all about LVL & PA into those LVL. I still have my target in mind but at this PA & knowing price doesn't go in straight line, I am assuming that it will play a range bound play for coming few days between 1.6500 - 300 - 200, before shooting for my targets. All I have to do now is to wait n watch for PA to dictate when to scale in for leveraging my profit. WnW, patience is virtue!
Cheers

I believe that we had the last correction of the wave 04 today, in spite of not having had any complexity in the wave 02 possible indications of high. And other the analysis fundamentalista and favorable since the growth and imminent since the rates were high on that month of Augusts, I believe that now and the hour of buying, personnel will discuss seriously at that forum since him and I specify for USDCAD

good day to you, Fx

Well done.

I have entered first shorts again on USD/CAD ( but small) and will manage the trade up. Was of the opinion that we may target 1.07xx - so prepared for that. This will probably become a multi-month hold for me towards 1.0180.

Enjoy!

Short biased myself.I assume your 1.018 target is based upon 200MA correct?

With regards USD/CAD: Be aware that CRUDE Oil is closely related to this pair. Crude is on the verge of imploding which will propel ALL CAD cross pairs even higher. Observe closely the geopolitical events occurring currently that can have an impact on crude prices around the world. FWIW.

Good day to you, Davit

My apology for the late response. Had to catch some ZZZZ...

Going to have to time this. Every 100 pips up i'll look to possibly add. Slowly increasing lot size to improve average entry price. In terms of the 1.0180, I do not use moving averages.

Wish you all success

Good day to you, I hear you. But I never bank on correlation. Sometimes it's a good indicator. Sometimes not. A quick glance over a GU and EU chart would indicate reasonable correlation. But if we look at the past 50 period weekly, positive correlation was only 5.5%. Look at what happened from 12 August to date on OIL and CAD.

All the best

Nice chart and presentation Mr. Tau. Again, a market is comprised of opposing sentiment. The way I see it, the sentiment is changing across the boards. Today is "the last day of summer" trading. Come Sunday Open...

Let the games begin!!!!

Good day to you, sir FX

I'm not suggesting anything... your view is valid and the conclusion sound. Only time will tell us the truth. Which ever side you trade, may you prosper.

All success and a good end of the week to you.

Good day,

Reasonable area to start looking at more serious short position for me. Entered 2 TINY shorts to test the waters.. will add larger sells as we move deeper into the sell zone.. Have made a few Dollars already getting in and out from these levels.

I suggest that you watch for the reaction at 1.0520 (intra-day support) for a buy until 1.0562 resistance on daily tf).
The 1.0562 level can be faded into immediately because we already had a bearish bat form there.
Enjoy your day sir.
Meshach

NB: THERE IS ALSO 1.0580 RESISTANCE ON DAILY TF TO WATCH OUT FOR.
Find attached a screen short of a sell on WTI crude I just took. I'm sure we know how that CAD correcelates positively with crude.
A sell-off on crude therefore suggests weakness in the CAD.

Good day to you, pipcenturion

Thank you for your post.

Normally a negative correlation between USD/CAD and oil. But good. I am slowly building the short towards 1.0180. Thank you for the pointers. Taken note.

All the best
