AUD/USD

Took a short AUD/USD position just now (0.8046).

100 pip SL.
500-700 pip TP

I will post a chart with my reasoning later on tonight. But it is based on my pressuposition that we will form a pinbar on the monthly mid-week. I may be totally wrong, so a safer option would be wait for a monthly close to be sure.

Edit: Here is the chart...

Outlook on EUR/USD

We are at an interesting area with price approaching the End of Month. Looking at a monthly chart (below) we are forming a spinning top should price close between 1.4080 - 1.3950. I would be expecting price to either maintain the above range until the week ends, at which point I will look for long-mid term shorts.

On the otherhand, we may get a strong bullish move coming into this week, which will likely continue into mid July.

I believe we will see another sell off in the equity markets, and if we get the spinning top on the monthly chart, it may be an excellent opportunity to position ourselves to capture a run south.

I will update my view on Tuesday/Wednesday.

Wrap up of last week

The Green Trendlines came into play several times. All my Power Level trades are documented on the WisdomFX Journal on ForexFactory (link on right of this page).

Blue Lines are this weeks Power Levels. Dark Green Dashes are 22 pip deviations from the Power Levels I use to manage my trades with (Entries, Exits, Protective Stops etc.)

E/U opportunity to short

IF we break the Lower trend line, Look to short @ 1.3900 on a retrace, with a 20-40 pips Stop Loss.

Profit targets should be around 1.3800 and 1.3750.

fuck it.. closed 100% @ 0.8023

Off to bed... profits came real quick

News Spike

News gave us a break of 0.8000..

Only 30 pips left till TP LEvel :D

AUD/USD Long

Sorry guys, This is being posted after the fact, I dont like to do this, as its too easy to call winners after they have been made. I have just been flat ou this week...

Reason for entry, as a Break out of Hour Trendline... Daily chart is also starting to look bullish. I plan on looking to take profit around 0.8050 on this trade. If your not in this trade yet, I would wait to enter on a retest of the trendline (if it occurs) if not then wait for the next setup.

Closed last part of my AUD.USD Short @ 0.7914...

No more trades this week, apart from power level trading...

A/U Update

Took 33% off @ 0.7950 last night.

Took 33% off @ 0.7908, just now.

SL @ +1 pips on remaining 33%.

Will look to cover final 33% of position @ 0.7700 or 0.7500 or get stopped out...


There were also some good power level trades last night, I took 2 trades... Details are on the WisdomFX Journal (link is on the right hand side of my blog)...

AUD/USD Update

Got my higher entry as anticipated...

I will not look to close my first entry @ 0.8019 for a couple of pips profit, to reduce my risk on this trade. (The Green line @ 0.8000 is the current TP for this trade, I may close a few pips shy of this though depending on PA.

Once I get a good chance to do this, I will leave my 2nd position open, to run down for atleast 150 pips, or taken out @ break even...

UPDATE: Closed my first position SL now @ +1 pips.... Going to bed.. TP is currently @ 0.7500, I will review Price Action around 0.7900 if we get there, to decide on wether to take partial profits... Good Night.

SHORT AUD/USD

You may be able to get a better entry @ 0.8043ish if you wait abit though...

Stops above 0.8075

TP @ 0.7500

Will Trail Stop @ BE after/if we break 0.7850

Intra-Week Trades

AUD/USD:
Anyone who entered of my call last week to go long @ 0.7900 would have made an easy 200 pips. With only a 10 pip Draw Down. This week I am looking to go short @ 0.8010 for 200+ pips.

EUR/USD:
Looking to go short @ 1.4100 area, for a gain of +300-500 pips.

USD/JPY:
Looking to buy @ 97.00 for +300 pips or so...

Those are my intra-week views for the 2nd week of June 2009.

Trade Update

USD/CAD Trade closed for +1 pips right now... Taking too long to break north...

Instead: Went long EUR/USD @ 1.4172.
SL @ 30 Pips, will move to BE after price hits 1.4200, and let this ride up to 1.4350 region, trailing my stop up along the way.

Intra-Week Trades

Here are my intra-week trades I will be looking to play this week.

AUD/USD
Looking for 'long' entries @ 0.7900, 0.7850, 0.7800.. depending on Price Action
Targeting 0.8400 area.

EUR/USD
Looking for 'long' entries @ 1.4000 or 1.4050
Targeting 1.4350 area.

USD/JPY
Staying out although shorts are in favour. As I called last week we failed to break above the 'Daily 100EMA' where I took profits from my long trade. Price Action now indicates downward movements, however there is too much congestion.
