I look at daily charts for longer term direction, but trade the hourly chart. Trading through the line, sometimes back and forth several times, with most cases showing eventual upper wick or wicks(for a short), at or piercing the line, but closing below it. As i have futures charts as well, vol helps but is not necessary. My last trade was around .4380. That was my reason to short.

Formation is definitely catching my eye... just watching and waiting, could be a reload for another move up, or some accumulation before the next move down.
Either way the market will show its hand. The wolf hides and watches its prey before it goes in for the kill...

hi guys,

Is there any correlation between GBPUSD, GBPJPY and GBPCHF? Or they can behave totally different?

GU is major

GJ = GU * UJ

GF = GU * UF

applying rules of marriage and alimony size if divorce happens

if GU and UJ are married that is move in same direction GJ moves strongly in that direction

in divorce when both GU and UJ move in different directions, the partner which moves stronger [ has the alimony ] drags GJ with it but slower

hope this explkains how crosses move

this is why it is always safer to trade majors, divorces when they happen can be very bad for accounts.

correction, crosses are the result of orgy because more tyhan 2 currencies are involved. majors are with simple marriage because only 2 currencies are involved and hence honest married pair is called major and orgy couples are called crosses.

this is the chart i use too see the overall gbp strenght (daily chart)

it is:

gbpusd/eurgbp*gbpjpy*gbpaud*gbpchf*gbpcad

overall we can say that the gbp was under intense pressure in 2016, but a bounce may come (i see something like a triple bottom, if it hold there's going to be a nice bounce)

is there any coder here who can write a simple script like

getting the average value of gbpusd using 5 or more correlated pairs and the subtracting the actual value of gbpusd from this average

effectively giving us the actual pair strength as compared to a 5 correlated pair average.

lets say

GBPUSD = GBPAUD * AUDUSD [ here we took 2 pairs ] but what if i had 10 pairs here , obviously the individual currency push pull will skew the average price from the actual price giving some sense of direction

try if you get the idea
