EUR/USD 11 NOVEMBER 2013



Price fell to the BF786 area on Friday after the NFP number. If we get a clear bullish cs formation from current levels or lower down while inside the B low then we can expect price to rally towards 3500 over coming sessions. Else a fall and a sustained break of the B low will have us looking for another B low, keeping the A where it is.

Will be going long today if:

1.       We need a clear bullish cs formation from current levels, or lower down while inside the B low, maybe after a test of Friday’s lows even. Place stop 10 pips below the low of the cs formation, max 0.5% risk, limits 100 pips or if you are a swing trader, then 10 pips inside 3500, at 3490.
2.       Remember a fall and a sustained break of the B low negates this view.

Will be going short today if:


1.       No setups at present – stand aside.

GBP/USD 11 NOVEMBER 2013



Price fell on Friday with NFP taking us beyond the minor618 almost to the 786. We didn't get a bullish cs formation as a long entry as yet. We continue to look for an entry long, maybe after a test of the lows on Friday, or just a 618 of Friday’s lows. Patience is needed.

Will be going long today if:

1.       We are waiting for a test of Fridays lows, either the low itself or just a 50/618 retracement followed by a clear bullish cs formation on the 1h chart. Stops 10 pips below the cs formation, max 0.5% risk, limits either inside the A high or 100 pips.

Will be going short today if:


1.       No criteria in place for short trade setups - stand aside. A sustained break of the B low confirms the reversal.

Will be going long if:

EUR/USD 20 MARCH 2013



Price fell and took out the B low giving us a new AB swing. We once again have to wait for a retracement to the 618/786 of this swing for a short entry. Else a sustained break of 1.3000 will start a reversal on this time frame.

Still sideways on this pair, we are short since there was a test and a bearish cs formation late yesterday afternoon. We need a break of 5070-65 to open the downside towards 4920. Else a sustained break of 5200 will start a reversal on this time frame.

Will be going long if:
No trade setups, we don’t have any criteria in place.

Will be going short if:
We remain short for now, will look to see if we get a fall through 5070-50 to open the downside. I will not be adding to this position at present.
