Hi J its difficult to get tls to this chart ,but really I don't see either of these , {quote}
Hi Tony,

The TL / Channel is in doubt agreed. I have firmer convictions with the level of 1.6919 being a level of interest (it also calls for 69 as round numbers do enjoy being poked)

Candle and support chart

GU Weekly

Points of interest

  1. W28 & W29 are (if we ignore the wicks) inside down of W27 so three inside down trend reversal with W30 as confirmation -> high probability of reversal now present (+60%) if anyone cares.
  2. Its been a while since we have had three down weeks, so this is a valid signal confirmation for shorts for position traders on candle strategy
  3. GU short is not a carry trade so the m/m is worth watching as the swaps can knock profit if it does the sideways drift thing... which it often does
  4. Technical breach and signal to begin looking to short is the breach of 1.6919 and preferably 1.69

Targets on the long term side

  1. Harmonic retracement Fib 23.6% 1.6625, Fib 38.2% 1.6281 Fib 50% 1.6
  2. Support 1.626 if reached it opens swing support @ 1.572


Risks

  1. BOE governor Carney raises rates by more than 50 basis points (rate hike and market surprise is due... he said so)


Dollar support as confluence

  1. FOMC governor Yellen intends to end QE in Oct
  2. Watch for early rate hikes in the US

My trade plan

  1. I'm cancelling my TP 1.6919 holding my stop (profit lock @1.71050) I still have 50% of my initial scale in running
  2. I will short rallies on LTF 4H and rebuild this short to my risk appetite on momentum, FOMC may be useful
  3. If price trades through 1.71 I'll wait for more information

Absolute stop is 1.72 <- goes without saying


Happy hunting! Be well

Hi Hickson, watch USDZAR, interest rate tightening cycle has begun on increasing inflation... Institutions are looking for another 5 year short zs $ targets at 7.60 again multi-year position trade pending on +ve swaps.... now or never will take a few weeks to establish void at 10.90 best entries short rallies near 10.65 small positions and wide stops remember this is a long hold so small positions... not a get rich scheme, just a sit around and do nothing opportunity still waiting for AU to finish dipping to add

Ummm... ... Honest question here Davit, Isn't that backwards?

If the GDP is negative, that hurts the dollar...no? If so, then wouldn't it be buy the dips on GU?

I like Selling strength. Feds going to stop QE in Oct (major game changer)hence USD is going to appreciate
That's my quarterly outlook

Hi Jimmy,

Very nice analysis. I see where we have stopped on monthly. I get it. But...

And we did have a nice pattern play out.

{quote} Hi Chris, Yes, looking to get in. This is first level I am watching, then yes, there are more. {image}
But as for risk. What if Carney does a Carney? Anybody remember BOC?

And as for Yellen? Read this article if you have the time and then tell me she is going to raise rates? I found it very interesting.

Ok, knowing how you trade that's "kind of" what I thought.

I feel the added details in your thinking are important. I try to keep in mind that the experienced traders here are not the only ones reading these pages. Thanks for the clarification brother. ...

Interesting indeed Scott. First, I really don't think she (or uncle Ben) actually decide on it but, that aside and assuming I'm wrong about that ....

.....Hmmmm...... ... If she were able to keep her social side separate from the country's financial stability needs side (which I've found most that fit in her class can't), she "might" advocate for a very slow, measured rise over time. But given all the above, in a nutshell? Not likely...LOL

To be fair I have to say I didn't read the entire article. But I believe enough to get the gist. As with most articles, you reach a point where the rest is just a repetitive attempt to drive the main point home.

I have to agree with the "but" Scott.

Although the PA structure looks very promising as of now, we can't write off the technical bull trend quite yet. In the simplest of views on the weekly and daily, for me without a clear break, test and rejection of 1.69189 (intersection of weekly TL / SR + bottom of left over demand), the technical bull trend remains intact. Reaching the 50% of the crash is very possible yet.

That's why reevaluation at the 6930/00 level is needed....for me.
