What is the direction of highest probability today? (29/10/09)

by Johan Kriek (jkriek@fxinstructor.com)

Key events today:

- Eurozone Consumer Confidence @ 10AM GMT

- US GDP @ 12:30 GMT

- US Jobless Claims @ 12:30 GMT

*Watch out for those GDP figures. Last week we saw bad GDP figures from the UK and the Pound got pounded…

Probability Studies:

eu

Direction of Highest Probability: BEARISH
60 minute trend resistance: 1.4812
Bullish Probability above: 1.4812
Significant resistance: 1.4812
Significant support:1.4657, 1.4563

gbp

Direction of Highest Probability: BULLISH
60 minute trend support: 1.6300
Bearish Probability below: 1.6300
Significant support: 1.6300, 1.5927, 1.6257
Significant resistance:1.6680

*Please note that the 60minute trend forms part of a bigger Head and Shoulder bearish pattern. See the chart below (this is why we have a no trade zone) Should the High of 1.6466 be taken, I will have a closer look at longs

gbp-hs

Head and Shoulders patterns are bearish when found in a bull trend. The neckline support resides at 1.6257. If latter support is violated we can expect a significant drop to the downside. I would wait for this neckline to be violated before entering any shorts as Technical Analysis is not an exact science. Wait for confirmation first

Probability Studies Recap & Outlook Next Week (19 Oct)

by Johan Kriek (jkriek@fxinstructor.com)

The US dollar was sold off vs. the majors this week. The Japanese Yen benefited hugely. Will this trend continue next week? I don’t know. The only thing I do know is that the markets are pretty mixed as of now. At this point in time the JPY, EUR and GBP are bullish against the Bucky. The only one saying “nah” is the AUD

The above scenario sketches what we will be heading into next week. Have a look at the studies below so you can use this as a benchmark. Remember to make notes of the levels where the direction of highest probability will change as it is most important to change your perspective as soon as the bias changes in order to stay ahead and trade with as little risk as possible

Although this was a great week, remember to stay disciplined and you will be rewarded

Probability Studies:

eur

Direction of Highest Probability: BULLISH
60 minute trend support: 1.4855

gbp

Bearish Probability below: 1.6305
Significant support: 1.6305, 1.5700
Significant resistance:1.6446

aud

Direction of Highest Probability: BEARISH
60 minute trend resistance: Not yet identified
Bullish Probability above: 0.9230
Significant resistance: 0.9230

Direction of Highest Probability: BULLISH
60 minute trend support: 90.40
Bearish Probability below: 90.40
Significant support: 90.40, 89.55
Significant resistance:95.30

Something interesting on the YEN:

jpyhs

I see we had an inverted Head and Shoulders pattern in the JPY. The neckline at 90.42 has since been violated to the upside as the pattern signified. Possibly, price could make a move downwards and bounce on 90.42 to confirm the breakout. Keep and eye on that support as it it significant. The direction of highest probability is bullish in any case so I wouldn’t enter any shorts. I’d rather look for nice long entries

What is the direction of highest probability today? (15/10/09)

by Johan Kriek (jkriek@fxinstructor.com)

We could see a volatile trading day today due to the following announcements:

8:00AM GMT – ECB Monthly bulletin,
9:00AM GMT – EUROZONE CPI (huge inflation figure)
12:30AM GMT – US CPI (another huge inflation figure)

Inflation and inflation expectations move markets due to the fact that it governs Interest Rates. If interest rates go higher then the underlying currency will strengthen. Keep and eye on these figures..

by Johan Kriek (jkriek@fxinstructor.com)

Due to the Japanese and US public holidays today the market was either very volatile at times or it was consolidating. At this point in time price is consolidating across the board due to the lack of volume

Nevertheless, tomorrow could be very interesting because it will effectively be the start of the week for most of us

Also, the following directions of highest probability could change overnight so rather join me in the Live Trading Room at 3am GMT tomorrow morning to stay up to date.
