We have drawn a new bearish channel on the GBP/USD 30min Chart.  Unfortunately any possible patterns do not have good enough symmetry to post.  We will continue to watch for new patterns within the context of the Fibonacci levels on the 8hr Chart and the channel on the 30min Chart.

We have drawn a bullish channel on the 4hr Chart that has been forming very nicely.  The pair has broken the bottom of the channel however.  We will watch for new patterns to form near the bottom of the broken channel or near one of the Fibonacci levels on the Weekly Chart.

AUD/USD (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Buy AUD/USD at 0.8849. Stop at 0.8789. Profit targets at 0.8942, 0.9010.
What is the trend?Up
What is this pattern?Bullish Butterfly - See all chart patterns
Why is this significant?Converging Fibonacci levels provide strong support @ point D.
What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis?If RSI falls below 30.
Reason for Strategy
The AUD/USD is approaching the bottom of the bullish channel on the Weekly Chart.  Also, the pair is forming a bullish butterfly that would complete when the pair is just below the long term channel.  This is an excellent setup if the pattern completes as drawn.
Trade Invalidation
A move above 0.9130 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move below 0.8789 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 10 pips of hitting the entry, does not enter, and reaches T1, the trade is also invalidated.

NZD/USD (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Buy NZD/USD at 0.6966. Stop at 0.6900. Profit targets at 0.7068, 0.7144.
What is the trend?Up
What is this pattern?No pattern present - See all chart patterns
Why is this significant?Converging Fibonacci levels provide strong support @ point D.
What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis?If RSI falls below 30.
Reason for Strategy
The NZD/USD has dropped out of the bullish channel on the Daily Chart.  However, we are still looking to buy the pair it drops and completes our bullish butterfly on the 1hr Chart.  This trade isn't as good as the AUD/USD setup in my opinion, so if you only take one, I would take the AUD/USD trade on this same report.
Trade Invalidation
A move above 0.7275 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move below 0.6900 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 15 pips of hitting the entry, does not enter, and reaches T1, the trade is also invalidated.
