EUR/USD 14 DECEMBER 2011



EUR/USD
Price gave us a BF786 and a bullish cs formation yesterday, the trade lost 48 pips. Price then went on to take out the B low giving us a new AB downswing.

FOR TODAY:
We now have a downtrend in place, we should only sell rallies at the 618/786 after bearish cs formations. The new A is up at 326, with the B down at 3008.

SHORT: WILL ONLY BE GOING SHORT IF:
We rally to the 618/786 of this AB swing and then get a bearish cs formation. Stops above the cs formation, the 618 will be a 100 pip limit and the 786 will be a ST to the BF786.

If we don’t get the cs formations we are looking for then we don’t trade.

LONG: WILL ONLY BE GOING LONG TODAY IF:
We don’t have a swing high, so we will not have a BF786 set up in today's session.

If we don’t get the cs formations we are looking for then we don’t trade.

GBP/USD 12 DECEMBER 2011



GBP/USD
Price rallied on Friday and gave us the bearish cs formation we were looking for, but once again the stop was too big to take the trade.

FOR TODAY:
Sterling seems stuck in a range roughly between the 86 of the upswing and the BF786, approx a 200 pip range. We need a break of either to give us clearer direction.

Today we look for a test of the bearish cs formation and expect price to continue the fall, else if we get a bullish cs formation we will trade long, this will tell us that support is holding.

Only if price takes out the A low at 5525 then we will be reversing on this time frame.

SHORT: Will be going short only IF:
We get to the 5734/69 highs and then get a bearish cs formation,  stop above the cs formation, max 1.5% risk, limit will be down at the A low at 5525.

If we don’t get the setup we are looking for then we don’t trade.

LONG: Will be going long today only IF:
We get a bullish cs formation inside Fridays lows, or lower down while inside the A low, this will qualify as a ST to the BF786, stop below the low, max 1.5% risk.

If we don’t get the setup we are looking for then we don’t trade.

11H25 GMT UPDATE FOR GBP/USD 8 DECEMBER 2011



GBP/USD
For Position Traders - Price has hit the BF786 and has given us a bearish cs formation as seen above. According to the system this is a sign that we might be in for a fall down to 5538 over coming sessions since we have had an 86 prior bounce.
Traders might want to exit the long trade with some 65 pips depending on fill.


If the bearish cs fails and price continues up and violates the B high, then we will have a new AB swing and we will wait for a retracement on that swing for a buy entry.

GBP/USD 8 DECEMBER 2011



GBP/USD
Price gave us the dip and the bullish cs formation we were looking for yesterday and rallied to the limit-10 pips inside the BF786 as per analysis for a profit of 87 pips.

FOR TODAY:
We are close to the BF786 which will be sell territory IF we get a bearish cs formation. Else we expect price to rally and take out the B high at 5779 giving us a new AB swing.

Only if price takes out the A low then we will be reversing on this time frame.

SHORT: Will be going short only IF:
We need price to hit the BF786 at 5732 and thereafter give us a bearish cs formation. The cs formation can be anywhere inside the B high .This will be a ST and will have a limit down at the A low since we had an 86 prior bounce, stops above the cs formation, max 1.5% risk.

If we don’t get the setup we are looking for then we don’t trade.

LONG: Will be going long today only IF:
We have already reached the limit at 5722, but if we get a clear dip and a bullish cs formation we can trade long since price will probably then rally to violate the B high.

For position traders – The long trade was re-established on yesterdays dip  and we will see if we get a break of the B high to open the topside for rallies higher up.

If we don’t get the setup we are looking for then we don’t trade.
