General Market Outlook - September 7th, 2014

2014년 9월 7일

*****INTERESTING PAIRS*****

EUR/USD - "It depends on where price is"

- See the trade analysis I posted yesterday: tradingview.com/v/pU1HOJdE/
- Current price doesn't not warrant any new positions
- BEAR: I'd consider opening shorts between 1.30/1.31 (stops above 1.31)
- BULL: I'd consider opening longs between 1.28/1.275 (stops below 1.275)

---------

GBP/USD - Bullish (Pending longs above 1.6250)

- Daily chart posted a pinbar/hammer candlestick on Friday
- With no real retrace in this down move so far, 1.6250 is the line in the sand for bulls. If that level doesn't hold then it'll probably continue drifting down till 1.6000.
- Alternatively, knowing that people could be relying on the 1.6250 level to hold and knowing what people will do if that level breaks, it could also be a great opportunity for someone to set a bear trap.

---------

USD/CAD - Bullish (Currently holding longs from 1.0825)

- Recall from last week "I'd only consider loading longs if price gets closer to the 1.081X level"
- So when price retraced on Thursday, I loaded some longs at 1.0825. I don't have a full position though, my other pending longs were lower but price didn't get there. I already moved my stop to BE, so I can't lose on this trade.
- My target is the same as last week, looking for price to retest the 1.1000 level

-------------------------------------------------

*****CONFUSING PAIRS*****

AUD/USD - If the upward channel that I drew is valid then price should go down to the low 0.93 level then bounce up?

---------

USD/JPY - Bearish?? (You need wide stops to trade this one)

- Given the doji candlestick on Friday, I'm tempted to say there's a possible double top forming. (First top from Jan 2014)
- Wide stops = load half your normal position only. Try to load shorts close to 105.6X and place your SL at 106.6X

---------

XAG/USD - Comparing the blue circles, the left one didn't have a green bar when it went down but the right one does, so I'm not as sure as I was last week.
