  1. Daily Forecast: November 09

    by , 11-08-2009 at 09:53 PM (FXInstructor.com Daily Forecasts with Setyo Wibowo)
    EURUSD Forecast:
    The EURUSD made indecisive movement on Friday. On daily chart below we can see that after made a false breakdown on November 03, price now retreat to the upside, traded above the trendline indicating potential further bullish scenario with 1.4950 – 1.5060 as nearest target before 1.5300. Immediate support at 1.4850 – 1.4800 area. Break below that area should diminish my bullish outlook but as long as the pair stay above the trendline, I prefer a bullish scenario.



    On fundamental side, after worse than expected NFP and unemployment rate on Friday, the risk aversion had not enough power to reduce optimism about economy recovery and Dollar failed ...

  3. Results: 4hr Triangle Trade Eur/Usd: Plus Next Week Outlook

    by , 11-07-2009 at 01:50 PM (Winners Edge Trading Daily insights)


    I did an article on Thursday about a 4hr triangle trade opportunity. I am wondering if any one else attempted this method along with me. After I posted the article on Thursday the Eur/Usd did not move more than 5 pips for about 12 hours because traders were waiting for the Non-Farm Payrolls report to come out. When the report came out the price dropped out of the triangle and I entered short at about 1.4875 and the price went straight down to 1.4814 which is a total of 61 pips. I actually had a profit target set in place of 55 pips so I almost got the whole trade.

    Now It usually doesn't work that well but sometimes it ...
