NZD JPY- ABC SIGNAL GIVEN, BUT TO WEAK TO TRADE

We were a bit tempted to enter long on this pair yesterday when it gave us an ABC Bull Signal above the broken Downtrend Line. This could have been the signal needed to take us up to the Resistance of the Range being formed and capture some Pips in the process. However, like many of the signals in the Forex Market these days, this was too weak to justify taking a position. As such, we will either have to wait for a stronger Bullish signal, or look to another pair altogether.


The last few weeks have seen the pair gradually moving sideways towards the Inner Uptrend Line.


DAILY CHART

















In doing so, the currency pair has moved in waves of Uptrends and Downtrends to slowly form a large Range pattern.


DAILY CANDLE 















The Resistance has already been formed with only the 2nd Support price point needed to complete the Consolidation. This was expected to be started with a Bull signal to break the Counter Trend Line (CTL), following the break of the Downtrend Line (DTL).


DAILY CANDLE

   
The Bull Candle appeared and broke the CTL setup as expected. Unfortunately, the size of the candle given was below what we are accustomed to for ABC signals and candles in general that start trends. A candle similar to that on the right would have been better and is the type that usually leads to strong breakouts, without hesitation.


DAILY CHART

















ABC setups can be thought of as spring boards- the greater the force applied/the larger the candle, the greater the distance traveled.


DAILY CHART - EURO AUD


If the candle is not strong enough, the market either reverses or provides another setup and signal. In some cases, the market actually moves in response to the weaker signal, but this rarely happens. When it does, the trend tends to be volatile and take a much longer time to reach its target, with unexpected price spikes along the way. 

Nevertheless, for those who have chosen to trade this setup,  let's hope that I am wrong- for those opting not to trade, let's hope that I am right.

Happy (no) Trading.

SHARP GBP USD RALLY PREDICTED 7 DAYS AGO

Image
As predicted several days ago, the GBP has rallied sharply above major Support area of 1,2000 to start an uptrend that will take it up to the 1,2750 area by Wednesday January 25th, 2017. This is all part of the predicted  formation of a Consolidation Setup on the Daily Chart. In the screen shot of the Private Video Tutorials sent to DRFX Subscribers (www.drfxswingtrading.com), you can see the blue line used to indicate where I expected the rally. PRIVATE VIDEO LESSON - JANUARY 10, 2017 In the screenshot and Youtube Video below of January 18, you can see that the rally took the form of a strong Bull Candle - exactly where I predicted. PRIVATE VIDEO LESSON JANUARY 18, 2017 This projected Consolidation is based on the type of bullish and bearish waves on the Daily Chart. From the Trading Manual, you will see that there are certain types of waves that tell us when the market will form a Consolidation.

STRATEGY NOW UP BY 23.78% WITH RECENT 2.00% USD CHF TRADE

Image
This trade involved trading the False Breakout Reversal Setup that was taking place on the Daily and 4 Hour Charts last week, amidst the period of risk aversion across markets in reaction to the on going Coronavirus outbreak. This quick and aggressive trade took just 4 Hours in providing me with a 2.00% Rate of Return, just ahead of the Bullish Reversal that took place at Support. With this result, the new strategy is now up by 23.78% from just 14 trades, pushing me closer to the next major target of a 30% Rate of Return. As long as we carefully and patiently wait to only trade the setups with a High Probability of Success, large Rates of Return are possible for us in this difficult market.  VIDEO HIGHLIGHT OF THE USD CHF TRADE The main factors related to this trade that you'll seen in the Manual and in the more detailed Video Analysis available only to my subscribers were: 1. Accurately Identifying Consolidation

GBP CAD PROVIDES A 140-PIP TRADING GAIN FROM FALSE CONSOLIDATION BREAKOUT REVERSAL

Image
This successful trade took advantage of the sharp False Breakout Reversal from the Pennant Consolidation on the Daily Chart that started on December 3, 2015. As with all of these types of setups, the initial breakout attempt was quickly taken out by a strong, opposing signal that led to a breakout at the other end of the Consolidation. Given that this setup was in sync with the theory of False Breakouts that is outlined on Page 54 of the Trading Manual, the trade provided a strong gain of 140 Pips. The graph below shows one of the examples of False Breakouts that are explained in detail in the Manual. FALSE BREAKOUT SETUPS As you can see from the Daily Chart of the GBP CAD below, the setup was almost exactly the same as the one above.  DAILY CHART FALSE BREAKOUT PENNANT SETUP (FXCM Charts used to provide Entry Signals based on the New York Candle Close of the Daily Chart) Following the Bear Candle that attempted a breakout at Support, the bulls
