MONTHLY RANGE PUTS EURO AUD AT MAJOR CROSSROADS - forex trading system simple

MONTHLY RANGE PUTS EURO AUD AT MAJOR CROSSROADS ~ forex trading system simple

After completing a Bear Crown setup that led to a strong downtrend of over 1,000 Pips, the EURO AUD is now at a crossroads that could either lead to more gains for the Aussie or a strong trend change altogether.

The Chart below shows how this downtrend began, the breaks of the Uptrend Lines and the current Pennant setup that the pair has now formed. 

DAILY CHART

Bull and Bear Crowns as well as the breaks of Trend Lines are typically what we see when major trend changes take place. Traders can either enter at the start and hold trades for long periods or can aggressively trade the waves of the trend. As this trend continued to create lower lows, the Monthly Range of the pair was also breached. Trends that reach this important price point will either pause for a period before resuming the trend or change direction. In the chart below, we can see that this pause took the form of a Pennant that was eventually broken, indicating that we could see a continuation of the downtrend. 

DAILY CHART

On the other hand, as we can also see from the chart above, the current Pennant that has been formed has moved the pair above the Inner Downtrend Line. This could indicate that the current downtrend may actually be coming to an end, given the slow and unconvincing breakout from the larger Pennant. Currency pairs can exceed their Monthly Ranges to give the impression that the trend will continue but the longer the trend takes to get going, the more likely that a trend change will take place. The chart below shows how these two scenarios could unfold.

DAILY CHART 

A simple bearish breakout from the Pennant could be the signal required to continue the existing trend. If the candle given to start this breakout is strong enough, entry can take place there with the appropriate target of between 100 and 200 Pips. However, this Pennant may also be the Centre Tip of a possible Bull Crown that starts a new trend above the Downtrend Lines. One would have to wait for a Right Tip that completes the Bull Crown or another formation before considering entry to go long. Strong trend changes require strong setups and the current Pennant is not large enough to support a trend change. 

Only time will tell what takes place with this currency pair. Regardless of the ultimate direction, we can take advantage by patiently waiting on the appropriate Daily and 4 Hour Chart signals for profitable trades.

70 PIP TRADE DAY TRADING STRESS VS SWING TRADING BLISS - forex turtle trading system pdf

70 PIP TRADE DAY TRADING STRESS VS SWING TRADING BLISS ~ forex turtle trading system pdf

The recent 70-Pip trade made on the AUD NZD highlighted the main challenges faced by the typical Day Traders using the Lower Time Frames. This trade required entry at the Bullish Candle Signal that started a breakout from a Range and a large Pennant Consolidation on the Daily Chart. However, Day Traders would have encountered a more volatile picture on the smaller charts that would have severely limited their profitability during this Bullish breakout.

The charts below show the breakout that started the trend that provided the trading gain. Entry took place immediately at the close of the Bull Candle with the Stop Loss and Profit Targets set according to the rules of the strategy.

DAILY CHART - SIGNAL

DAILY CHART - TRADE RESULT

This was a simultaneous breakout from a large Pennant Consolidation and a Range setup at its Resistance.


DAILY CHART- TRADE SETUP

In contrast to this fairly straightforward setup, many Day-Traders on the 30 Minute Chart would have faced a more challenging scenario. As we can see in the chart below, the Bullish Candle on the Daily Chart was actually formed by a Range breakout on the 30 Minute Chart.

30 MINUTE CHART

Many Day Traders would have avoided entry here, however, given the size and volatile nature of the candle. The large wick on that candle would also have suggested the end of the breakout, while the subsequent reversal and sideways pattern limited any possibility of a profitable trade. 

  
Nevertheless, a trading possibility eventually appeared on this time frame in the form of another Consolidation breakout.


30 MINUTE CHART- PENNANT TRADE 

Entry could have taken place at the Bullish Candle that broke Resistance with the Stop Loss at the Support area. Unfortunately, the breakout for this would have been limited to only 15 Pips ahead of the reversal a few hours later. For scalpers, this 15-Pip gain would have been a good trade, but for others holding out for more, breaking even or incurring a small loss would have been the result. Yet for others who may have held out in hopes of a turnaround, a total loss on the trade would have been suffered.

Following this period, the currency began to move sideways in a volatile pattern, offering very little in the way of tradeable setups. 

30 MINUTE CHART - VOLATILITY

Those aiming for small Pips may have been able to scrape out a few more to add on to the 15 Pips. However, the sharp reversals and spikes would have made this a very stressful, losing endeavor. Others aiming for more would also have been left without any opportunity to compensate for the previous losses.

The results from this type of trading over the long-run are often lower than expectations despite the attraction of the smaller charts. The greater volatility and the need to continuously monitor the market at all hours of the day can take their toll on a trader. For Swing Traders on the other hand, only a few hours are spent trading and analyzing the market prior to entry. Instead of aggressively battling a large number of candles at a time, only a few candles stand in the way between entry and profitability.

DAILY CHART - STRESS FREE TRADING

Trading can be a lot more enjoyable and profitable than what many are led to believe. If this is done using the higher time frames that reward the trader rather than the smaller time frames that reward the broker, long-term gains will be made.  Spikes that come out of no where to take out our Stop Losses and unexplained pullbacks that reduce our profits can all be avoided.

Swing Trading vs Day Trading Has the Debate Ended - omni forex trading system review

Swing Trading vs Day Trading Has the Debate Ended ~ omni forex trading system review

Within the context of the ongoing debate between Swing Trading and Day Trading, these early results from my Methodology appear to tip scale decisively towards Swing Trading. Only 7 trades have been done so far and to date, the results have already beaten the Year-to-Date returns of 80% of the Top Traders Ranked by BarclayHedge. With only 9 trades left for this strategy to generate a 100% return for my clients (sadly, cost of Manual will go up accordingly- see Table), Day Trading may soon by a thing of the past as you spend less time trading and more time earning.

Currency Trading can be a very lucrative means of earning income on a short and long-term basis. The most popular way of doing this by traders has been to profit from the intra-day changes in a currency’s value, during the most liquid trading sessions of the day. However, given the difficulty of consistently modelling the random price behaviour of a financial asset class at this micro level, sustainable success from this approach can be an elusive goal. Instead, if traders focused on the clearer trends provided by the Larger Time Frames, they can achieve of more consistent rate of success.

Swing Trading takes advantage of the clearer and more reliable breakout signals and trends of the Daily and 4 Hour Charts. It is a style of trading that is similar to Long-Term Trend trading in which positions are taken based on the longer-term fundamental value of a currency. However, given the time horizon of Swing Trades - 2 to 7 days- some of these trades will either be in line with that value or diverge from it in the short-term.

Among the benefits of Swing Trading are;

• Stronger Trends with Larger Pips per Trade;
• Accuracy of Signals, with fewer False Breakouts;
• Predictable Times for Analysis and Trade Execution;
• Fewer Trades needed for Large Rates of Return;
• Compatibility with a non-Forex 9-5 Schedule;

This style of trading also allows traders to sidestep the volatility surrounding the release of macroeconomic data each week. Several important reports related to the major currencies can provide an indication about market direction during the day. Nevertheless, due to the subjective and conflicting interpretation of these by traders, large spikes in prices tend to appear, taking out small Stop Losses and eroding the Day Trader’s profitability.

In addition to the significant personal benefits, Retail Traders will also be better able to offer their services to Prop Trading houses and Hedge Funds that want this style of trading - earning very large commissions in the process. Based on these early results...

RATE OF RETURN NOW 13 0 ON SMALL AUD CAD TRADE - forex odyssey trading system

RATE OF RETURN NOW 13 0 ON SMALL AUD CAD TRADE ~ forex odyssey trading system

This trade was intended to take advantage of a sharp breakout short from a Pennant Consolidation, with the target set for its Breakout Equivalent. All Consolidations have Breakout Equivalents (B.E.) - it is the area that they break towards before pulling back. They will either pause here to then resume the trend or become volatile and reverse. Nevertheless, once spotted and measured accurately, one should either be exiting your trades there (see the AUD USD 148 Pip Trade and the AUD NZD 70 Pip Trade) or avoiding entries at these areas altogether.

In this instance, the pair had already broken out from a previous Range and was now breaking a Pennant. 



DAILY CHART - AUD CAD

(FXCM Charts used for Trade Signals- Dukascopy used for Live Trades)

Based on the way I had originally measured the B.E. for this Range, it would not be hit until a few hundred pips. However after analyzing the chart again for confirmation that my Entry Setup was correct, I realized the error and exited immediately. This provided only a small gain of 9,6 Pips, but was much better than what would have taken place if it was left any longer.


This was the entry setup on the 4 Hour Chart. It required waiting on the market to pullback so that my Stop Loss would have met the criterion in the strategy.


4 HOUR CHART - TRADE SETUP

Entry then took place as the market pulled back to trigger the entry but shortly after, I realized that this B.E. was actually at the Entry Price of my trade.


DAILY CHART

Luckily I was able to come out before the rally took place, which would have taken out the Stop Loss.


DAILY CHART- PULLBACK

Following this trade which pushed the rate of return to 13.0%, my Subscribers are still 9 trades away from a 100% return.

RATE OF RETURN FROM METHODOLOGY

The FXCM Demo Account that you will see in MyFxbook does not reflect this trade. The entry order was not triggered due to the natural differences in prices that takes place across trading platforms.


Mistakes like these are par for the course. Sometimes they lead to large losses, but sometimes you get lucky with only a small loss or gain. It can be very difficult to exit a trade that has the potential for large gains. However, this is perhaps the best trading decision that one will make when large sums of your funds or those of your clients are at stake.

105 PIPS ON EURO USD TRADE - forex on heaven trading system

105 PIPS ON EURO USD TRADE ~ forex on heaven trading system

As the Euro continues its slow but steady decline against the US Dollar, the current value of the short trade open on this pair is now 105 Pips out of the 277 Pips targeted. This was done within the context of the strong downtrend that began in May this year after the turn at Resistance of the large Pennant on the Daily Chart. 


DAILY CHART - PENNANT SETUP




DAILY CHART - OPEN TRADE




The nearly 1400-Pip decline has provided Day and Swing Traders with many shorting opportunities along the way. This current trade, which could reach its target in a few days/weeks, was opened following the break of a Pennant on the 4 Hour Chart.


4 HOUR CHART- ENTRY SETUP




As with all breakouts short from Consolidation, the Stop Loss was placed above the Resistance. Following this entry, additional or new short positions could also have been placed at subsequent bearish signals. The Limit Order has been set to just above the Support of the larger Pennant.


4 HOUR CHART- TRADE TARGET




The trade has now been opened for 4 days and is likely to reach its target in a time period beyond the traditional Swing Trading time frame. It is also being done in a trend that is characterized by smaller Daily Candles than are normally expected for major currency pairs such as this. Major price targets that would  also be expected to lead to large pullbacks are also going unnoticed in this atypical downtrend. Nevertheless, it is a trend that can be considered to be used together with existing strategies that target shorter moves with stronger Daily Candlestick signals.

Let us see how this one unfolds together with the inversely correlated USD CHF that is also moving towards its own target;


DAILY CHART-  USD CHF



Happy Trading!
