  Written by Bradley Gareiss

• EUR/GBP Bounce Possible Despite Social Turmoil
  Written by Matthew Weller
  Last updated 9/26/2012 2:03:59 PM ET
  Though the European situation looks dire right now, tomorrow is a new day that could bring a brief bounceback after a week and a half of euro selling (also note tomorrow’s important Italian bond auction, which could lead to a bounce if it goes well). With our current open trades tilted toward “risk-off” trades, it would be prudent to look for trade opportunities that could hedge our risk if market sentiment shifts. One bullish euro setup that could form up over the next 24 hours is on the EUR/GBP…

• AUD/JPY: No Dandruff Here – “Head and Shoulders” Galore!
  Written by Matthew Weller
  Last updated 9/25/2012 1:58:26 PM ET
  The co- godfathers of modern technical analysis, Robert Edwards and John Magee, called the Head and Shoulders pattern “…the most reliable of the major reversal patterns” in their seminal tome Technical Analysis of Stock Trends. Though much about the markets has changed in the 60+ years since their book was published, Head and Shoulders patterns are still one of the most dependable signals that a pattern is due to reverse. Therefore, a double Head and Shoulders pattern, such as the one currently developing on the AUD/JPY, represents a particularly strong trading pattern.

• EUR/AUD Buy on Triangle Breakout
  Written by Matthew Weller
  Last updated 9/24/2012 2:00:11 PM ET
  These clear, medium-term trends suggest that trend-followers, including large institutions and funds, are heavily involved in the market. Meanwhile, swing traders who missed the EUR/AUD rally over the past 2 months finally saw a meaningful pullback last week and are likely chomping at the bit to join in on the rally. A Bullish Pin Candle on the daily chart, confirms this idea, suggesting that a resumption of the uptrend is likely this week.

• GBP/CAD: Longer-Term Buy on Break Above 1.5880
  Written by Matthew Weller
  Last updated 9/21/2012 1:07:02 PM ET
  The GBP/CAD is a currency pair that few traders regularly watch, but based on the recent price action, it could be on the verge of another leg higher next week. The pair has formed a halting rally over the past two weeks, taking rates up to test previous resistance at 1.5880, a level which put a cap on prices three times throughout the month of July. If the bulls can push rates through this ceiling, a further continuation toward previous resistance at 1.6070 is likely in the coming weeks.
