DAY 7 - IDENTIFYING HIGHS & LOWS
Identifying Highs & Lows is essential part of my trading. It saves me from being on wrong side of market majority of times. Lot of traders get stuck into conventional way of drawing highs & lows, but fail to understand its not about perfection, its about understanding market pulse by taking guidance from past swings, concentrating on current price action and predicting probability of next market move.
USD/JPY closing the year near the highs
Monthly chart:
Price is trending up towards strong resistance zone:
1. Trendline that contained the long-term downtrend in years 1986, 1990, 1998.
2. 23.6% retracement of November 1982 to October 2011 decline.
3. 2007 high at 124.14.
On the downside, the first major support is 200 month SMA at 106 and then 105 level.
Weekly chart:
As price is getting closer to 120 level, the momentum is somewhat weakening. The previous week's range bar clearly demonstrated indecision, but that was likely just a…

Retreat from highs expected
USD/SGD is on highs last seen in the middle of 2013. Broad USD strength is seen across the board and now I think for some week rate will be in process of further direction determination. Mentioned developments could be seen in weekly USD/SGD chart below.
In my opinion during coming moth rate will fluctuate inside quite narrow range before further direction will be determined but this might happen only at the beginning of next year. For more exact possible rate developments determination daily US…

Priceline On the Move
Hello Traders,
I was checking out some recent earning news and this chart jumped out at me. Looks like a nice inverted head and shoulders (bullish signal) has formed and new highs for Priceline.com is looking strong. Notice the 200 SMA is pushing up the price. The only concern comes at the psychological and resistance price area of 1300. The bulls seems to be testing the 1300 area, and if that is cleared I am looking for 1400 to as a target.
Happy Trading,
Jay Trader

USD/CHF for some months now is in a descending channel pattern which seems to set lower highs & lower lows every month.I expect another bearish trend in month to come followed by retracement.I see a potential support zone around the (0.8800) price level from which the trend could retrace higher along the 50.00% fibonacci fan line.MACD is overbought so th…

GBP/NZD has a mixed bias right now.
