After a better than expected German IFO news event, and as expected Bank of England Meetin After a better than expected German IFO news event, and as expected Bank of England Meeting minutes, we spotted some 15 minute MACD/stochastic divergence playing out on the yen pairs. After taking a closer look we were able to locate a substantial amount of overlapping resistance on the GBP/JPY around 203.80 or so. This seemed to offer us a fantastic setup for a bounce off of this area for at least a 100 pip extension back down. All we had to do was wait for it to get there and look for some short term confirmation in order to enter our shorts. This resistance consisted of the daily central pivot point, the 50% Fibonacci retracement of yesterday's range, the hourly 200 ema, 4 hour 55ema, and daily 21 ema. All of this was in the 203.75-203.80 area. As we were nearing this area we turned to a short term chart for confirmation, and sure enough we spot very clear 2 minute macd divergence to the downside exactly while getting a macd cross at 203.80. On top of this the German DAX, and DOW/S&P futures market turned to the downside. Placing a short around here with a very low risk profile (stop just above 204) provided a fantastic risk vs. reward for this or any other yen pair short. Within one 15 minute candle everyone was 70 pips in profit, and we reached our first target just over 100 pips into the move. Quite a conservative, repeatable entry right off resistance with confirmation. It really does not get any better than this.

Tomorrow brings the results of the German Ifo Business Survey for May during the European Tomorrow brings the results of the German Ifo Business Survey for May during the European session. Although last month's surprise decline in Ifo's Business Climate Index ultimately accelerated the drop in the EUR/USD from its all-time high near 1.60, it wasn't the first time that the Ifo report has sparked a big move in the euro. Just 30 minutes after the Ifo news, the release of the minutes from the latest meeting of the Bank of England's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) presents market-moving potential for the British Pound.

So far this year, the EUR/USD has responded well to the German ZEW Economic Sentiment Indicator, scheduled for release during Tuesday's European session. In contrast, currency moves in response to recent U.S. PPI reports have shown a less consistent track record, but increasing global attention on inflation makes this report difficult to ignore.

Oil was still high, so we focused on the CAD. Stock indexs were up after the open, so JPY was weak. This created a nice 75 pip CAD/JPY trade. Watch the video to see how the hourly 15 min and 1 min charts were used for entry and daily pivot points for profit taking. (more) (less)

We had some nice trades take place on Aud/Usd, Eur/Usd, Gbp/Usd, Gbp/Chf, and some Yen pairings. In this video we focus on the first Gbp/Jpy trade, which was a nice quick short at the London open. We used multiple trend line s&r, Double top on a 50% Fibonacci retracement, bollinger bands, and futures market movement to plan this setup. Depending on ones entry it rewarded you with 50-90 pips, not quite reaching our overall target of 203 (the weekly central pivot point). However, bouncing exactly off of our lower trend line.

As inflation concerns skewed last month's split MPC vote, this CPI release should draw some attention, and a surprise should move the GBP/USD. And if recent history repeats itself this month, the U.S. retail sales figures for April are most likely to move the GBP/JPY. (more) (less)

After breaking some key levels of long term support recently, we had quite a few pairs sit After breaking some key levels of long term support recently, we had quite a few pairs sitting in consolidation type patterns pre-London. A closer look yielded some lower highs on the yens, and triangle patterns all over the place, so it seemed more of continuation than consolodation. Then it was a simple matter of determining what currency was the weakest at that time, and building a trade plan around that currency and the Japanese Yen. One quick glance at the majors told a clear story, British Pound Sterling, and the US Dollar were the weaklings of the night. So be it, so we look to short the GBP/JPY and USD/JPY pairs once we break our triangles. Sure enough, the Futures markets began to drop, the yen pairs broke the triangle and whalla, piptopia began. In this video I focus on the trade plan used on the GBP/JPY trade(s). I say trade(s) because depending on ones style you either held it once, or got in and out 3 times for upwards of 200+ pips in profit. We had several layers of support to get through such as daily pivots, Weekly S2 Pivot, trend lines, it was just a whole lot of fun. What looked very tricky and volatile on the 15m, was a waterfall on the hourly and above. In this trade plan we deal with a descending triangle, 'riding the hourly 5 ema', daily & weekly pivot points, key psychological levels (yay we broke 200.00 again!), multiple trend lines, Fibonacci retracements & extensions, divergence.. you name it we used it. Lovely trade, and once the Pound got even weaker on it's own the GBP/CHF joined in the fun for a piptapulous London indeed, hope you caught a good bit of it as the Bootcampers did! Fitting way to end a great trading week, have a fantastic weekend! (more) (less)

Today's London session offered several nice trade setups. The better of which involved th Today's London session offered several nice trade setups. The better of which involved the British Pound pairs, and later, the EUR/USD. In this video I focus on the EUR/USD short trade setup around 1.5504 for a nice 80-90 pip drop (if you held on through the news.)To build this trade plan we used trend lines, multiple overlap of resistance around 1.5504, short term chart confirmation, and correlation with Gold dropping/USD rising while we were bouncing from these levels. We had no idea if the lower channel bottom around 1.552 would break or not, but who cares if you already have locked in your MAP (minimal acceptable performance) of 15 pips, let it run. Once we were to break that area we should have little difficulty extending at least to todays M1 pivot, and maybe even to S2 for a 80-120 pip gain. The beauty of the short entry around 1.5504 was just how small you had to risk (10ish pips), the risk vs. reward was something crazy like 5 to 1, I will take that any day. Overall a very nice London session indeed, just love when it rains pips.

Today was a very active session with quite a few trade plans related to the USD taking pla Today was a very active session with quite a few trade plans related to the USD taking place, in this video we focus on the GBP/USD setup. We open today with the GBP/USD unable to break even the most recent 38.2 Fibonacci retracement level from the recent drop from the 1.99 area. After the Fib held we challenged today's central pivot point at 1.9822 repeatedly on the 15m chart. Using simple support & resistance tactics, Fibonacci retracement levels, Bollinger Bands, and short term stochastic/MACD divergence, we were able to plot a very nice short opportunity targeting 1.9735 area. Quite a nice trade, helped along a bit by a lousy PMI release, exactly to our take profit zone, forming a nice double bottom. Unfortunately we did not get a Fib reload opportunity later as it turned into a full blown USD reversal from where we took profit. So be it, 90 or so pips on just this trade, with even more if you did a USD basket trade.

Things were relatively calm prior to the London open with the exception of the Aussie and Things were relatively calm prior to the London open with the exception of the Aussie and Kiwi/USD. We had nice subtle rising lows on the GBP/USD with several wicks forming up around the 38.2 Fibonacci retracement of Friday's range.. We also had a Weekly central pivot point at 1.9867, as well as today's central at 77. This allowed us a fairly nice price trap, all we needed was some confirmation. Then we noticed some stochastic, and MACD divergence indicating downside was on the way, quickly followed by a new hourly candle double topping off the central pivot point. With all that ammunition available, there were at least 3 different entry opportunities for a short from the DT at 38.2 around 80 or so, to the final chance after the break of the trend line and a retest to 64, with a maximum risk of around 20 pips for a 80-120 pip target (nice ratio). Once that retest occurred it was off to the races in a short move that could last well into New York. So far this trade has produced a nice 100 pips as of the making of this video, we shall see if ISM helps this trade further today or not. Even if it does not, I'll take obvious 100 pip swings anyday! =)
