GBP/USD Breaking the Neckline
Posted on 10. Feb, 2012 by Jakob.
Cable has been trading in a strong bullish trend almost for a month now. The bullish trend has been trading higher in a fairly tight channel, which was broken yesterday indicating possible downside. In addition to this, the pair crossed the two EMA´s I monitor on the 4-Hour chart, which give us another indication. Another thing to note on the 4-Hour time frame, is the skewed head and shoulder formation, where the neckline just got broken to the downside as well.

Trading Forex – EUR/USD Ready for Further Downside
Posted on 20. Jan, 2012 by Jakob.
Trading Forex – Market Outlook for January 20th 2012. EUR/USD has been trading higher all week long. It has surged from a low around 1.2620 on Monday to a new high today around the 1.2970 level. This is a move of more than 300 pips to the upside which without a doubt will make a lot of trades question new lows in a near future. There has been a lot of buzz that traders should now start to look for long positions on this particular pair. I think the move up we have seen this week is nothing more than a pullback due to profit taking. Since the end of October 2011, the pair has plummeted by more than 1500 pips so a pullback is only a natural reaction to such a massive move.

Trading Forex – Perfect Trade but Still in Range
Posted on 06. Dec, 2011 by Jakob.
In yesterday’s post Trading Forex – EUR/USD after NFP I mentioned a good possible short trade on EUR/USD around the 1.3460 level if we got a 4-hour reversal candlestick formation. We got a perfect formation, close to a pin-bar and I took a short trade at the close of the 4-hour candle with an entry at 1.34628 with an initial 50 pip stop loss. The trade is currently 90 pips in profit and I am keeping a close eye on this trade around London open. Post a comment below if you had a chance to get in on this trade.
