Hi,

EURUSD Monthly has been sideways for months.

Last week, we saw a nice rally up to the high of that range.
Most likely it will go sideways in the lower timeframe.
Preferably, I wait in H4 for a retracement and look for buy setups.
Market sentiments is still bullish USD.

Hi Pete,

TMS Monitor give the alert and you did the right thing and do the top down analysis again.

One D1 candle will not reverse this AU pair. Friday's NFP cause the huge pull back catching all the buyer stops.

For me it is still buy only until I see reversal.

Trade Well.

{quote} awesome result. why market get volatile bcz of China bank holidays. do the move favor of USD or against the USD

the market volatility has nothing to do with whether Chinese bank holidays or not.
there is liquidity flow between different markets, with most Asian stock markets closed today for the Lunar New Year, there is still liquidity flow between the Asia market to the European markets and to the US markets. Money in the market has to flow somewhere, and lots of Chinese money out there for sure this week. It is time of the year when the Chinese are in their spring festival mood to make more money... (others gamble in casinos).

How do we feel about this potential long on Usd/Cad D1 if we get a strong cross? It's bouncing of late Dec support. {image}

USDCAD D1 not ready for Buy positions trading yet.
Will take at least 2 weekly candles to see a bullish reversal.
Let it reverse then wait for a confirm bullish 'trend' then we can PLAN, BUILD and RUN again in the coming weeks.

Meantime, may be we can catch some of the bullish correction move in lower TF.

EURAUD 5 Feb H1 trade setup. attached pdf is my "answer". we must have a daily routine tasks when we want to trade H1 intraday. start the day by looking at how the previous days traded. use a simple Triple Screen view or simply switch your chart TF and remember a few details. we tend to look at the pros and cons of the trade setups, and also the risks. but we often forget the opportunities which lies ahead. {image}
Thanks for these detailed examples boss!! I love it on how you give up the breakdown step by step.. always learning and thank you!!

EURAUD 8 Feb:

H4 will close in 2 minutes. Do you sell?

H4 is against the D1 and W1.

Risk to last swing high is about 100pips.

Hi,

yes, R:R is important.
last Friday' D1 candle close was very strong which hit a historical 'resistance' 1.5770. And it is not a good idea to sell against such strong buying momentum.
no matter how steep the TDI Green angle is, it is never a good idea to trade against the higher TF especially during period when market liquidity is low.
we cannot tell if there are really buyers or sellers just by looking at the TDI angle.
The market uses such low liquidity to set up traders.

regards,

Hi Em, How many different pairs do you trade at a time. I know you monitor quite a few but would you have trades open on multiple pairs at the same time?
By the way Queenstown and Te Anau are freezing, no good for your bones in retirement ;-)

Went long on h4 Eur/Usd at the opening of the last candle because there was a good Tdi cross. Two hours later it has repainted and hit my 50 Pips SL. It now looks like the tdi just bounced off but it didn't looked like this at 2.am pacific when the candle opened. How do you guys confirm your signal? I thought that it looked good on D1 also.
Fortunately my second trade with GBP/USD went better.

2 x sell, after initial win of 90 pips I closed one position. To me, the chart still is looking good: S/R at BRN 129, next 128.8., TDI fine. Now I am not sure how to move on:

- add another short position at next retracement (or when?)
- just hold, close at TDI going flat or other sign of weekness

Any hints welcome...

This is how I look this pair after some experienced traders shared their view last week.
http://screencast.com/t/WWYTKNvEOq

look at your upper timeframe (D1),
I think the party(downtrend) is just getting started....

Big Emm said PLAN, BUILD, RUN
I think that's how he nearly double his balance in one trading cycle (20 days)

is that correct?
