Why is this significant?There is no high probability pattern so we cannot place a trade.

Reason for Strategy
The EUR/USD has moved back up within the channel.  If the pair makes a new high, we may finally break out of the range we have been stuck in for weeks.  However, there is still no solid pattern to trade at this point, so we will continue to stay on the sidelines.

GBP/USD (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Sell GBP/USD at 1.5284. Stop at 1.5372. Profit target at 1.5151.
What is the trend?Down
What is this pattern?Bearish Gartley - See all chart patterns
Why is this significant?Converging Fibonacci levels provide strong resistance @ point D.
What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis?Multiple Fibonacci retracements on the Daily Chart.
Reason for Strategy
A bearish Gartley pattern is forming on the GBP/USD 4hr Chart below.  The pattern has great price symmetry, although it is too early to determine time symmetry.  There are also three other candidates for point X.  There is a downtrend on the Daily Chart, but the chart would be too cluttered if we drew it in.  There have been some questionably long bars lately, however the pair may be slowing down into the entry.  The trade is still on assuming the pair eases into the entry.  There is no easy mathematical way to describe this, so you have to use your best judgment.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 1.4905 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 1.5372 would stop the trade out. Long bars in the CD leg near the entry would also invalidate this trade. Also, if the pattern comes within 20 pips of hitting the entry, does not enter, and reaches 1.5115, the trade is also invalidated.

Reason for Strategy
The only pattern to draw is the bullish Gartley forming on the Daily Chart.  We have not fully posted it yet for several reasons: strong long term bearish channel, trade will take multiple days to complete, and long bars would have to be present for the pattern to complete soon.  Therefore, we will keep it on the radar for now, but we will not post the trade yet.

Reason for Strategy
After a short rally, the USD/CHF continued to drop.  Therefore, the broken bearish channel on the 4hr Chart will probably become irrelevant soon.  Tomorrow we will likely attempt to determine a completely new context in which to watch for trades.

Reason for Strategy
We have drawn a new bearish trend line on the USD/CAD 1hr Chart after the pair made a new low.  At this point, I am watching to see if the pair breaks the trend line.  A strong break could indicated a possible retest at 1.0223 (the previous low).  However, if the trend line holds the next spot to watch for is 1.0072 (127.2% of XA on the Daily Chart).

Reason for Strategy
The bullish channel on the AUD/USD 2hr Chart has broken.  However, the pair has rallied back up inside the channel.  Typically we would expect to see some resistance at the bottom of the broken channel, especially since this level has been tested twice already (as we can see on the 2hr Chart).  If the pair breaks up, a gest of 0.9228 (78.6% of XA) will likely be in store.

NZD/USD (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Sell NZD/USD at 0.7141. stop at 0.7205. Profit target at 0.7045.
What is the trend?Down
What is this pattern?Bearish Gartley - See all chart patterns
Why is this significant?Converging Fibonacci levels provide strong resistance @ point D.
What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis?Entry occurs just above 38.2% of X3A and 50% of X2A. Double top.
Reason for Strategy
A bearish Gartley pattern is forming on the NZD/USD 4hr Chart.  There are three potential candidates for point X that all line up at the same basic level.  This trade would also form a possible double top.  Although the pair came close to falling below C, it didn't breach that point.  Therefore this pattern is still good to go.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 0.6840 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 0.7205 would stop the trade out. Additional long bars in the CD leg near the entry would also invalidate this trade. Also, if the pattern comes within 20 pips of hitting the entry, does not enter, and reaches 0.7015, the trade is also invalidated.

What is social bookmarking?

Social bookmarking refers to a method you can use to store, organize and manage bookmarks of web pages that interest you. These could be news articles, movie reviews, places you want to visit — any type of web page. The main advantage is that unlike traditional Internet bookmarks that are specific to one computer, you can use social bookmarking to add and access bookmarks from any computer with an Internet connection.

Another benefit of social bookmarking is the ability to share web pages with friends, family or anyone who has similar interests. Likewise, you can visit the pages that other social bookmarkers share with you.

All pages within our website include links to social bookmarking websites. These websites are free to use and require only a simple registration. This allows you to capture useful information you find on our website and share it with other traders like yourself. Your GFT bookmarks can become a reference if you have a question, want to revisit a concept that you found valuable or would like to tell someone about GFT.
