Traps & Tumbles
The 'bear trap' and spike north which I expected yesterday to come real on EUR/USD were indeed confirmed, yet only partially since - although the pair managed to climb for like 100+ pips today in Europe, that up-swing could barely been seen on the 1-day chart.
GBP/USD got a bit more momentum to the north, but eventually fell down itself a lot in the US time.

Such failure shows the USD bulls revived back across the board - and it's possible now EUR/USD may take a good tumble as USD/CHF should rise out of an 'ascending triangle' (4-hr chart). I believe also USD/JPY has good odds to visit 103.70 at the least during a corrective spike north, and even the JPY crosses should be in the process of finding interim bottoming zones.

mg - 20 Jan 2005 07:27 - 2792 of 11056

I've noticed that taking a position opposite to the 06:00 to 07:00/30 direction can often follow through nicely. So, today, to test out the phenomenon, I went short cable @ 18740.

Off to do some boring day job stuff so won't be able to check it until mid day.

Trade well guys and dolls.

mg - 20 Jan 2005 07:49 - 2793 of 11056

That seemed to go well, taken 50 points profit before I've even left.

If I could do that every day I wouldn't complain.

mostrader - 20 Jan 2005 07:54 - 2794 of 11056

mg, as ive mentioned b4 at the cost of some unrest on this thread the asain/europe handover normally provides great oppertunities..not everyday but more often that not..
well done.

DAILY RECOMMENDED FOREX TRADE
Thursday, January 20, 2005 9:43 GMT
Daily Report
By FortKnox Trading
http://www.fortknoxtrading.com


USD / CHF
USDCHF is being traded in range between 1.1700 and 1.1900. The RSI in 4 hour and daily charts is around 60 while around 50 in weekly charts suggesting the range bound nature of USDCHF. While the currency stays in a range, it provides traders especially intraday traders to enter on any side of the range. Entry with tight stop is suggested and trailing stop might be used to extend the profit range.


Recommendation:

Sell USDCHF at 1.1902 with 40 pips stop (1.1942) and take profit at 80 pips (1.1822). Target is at 1.1763
