We have drawn a bearish channel on the 1hr Chart that has been forming very nicely.  There was a fairly large breach on the bottom, but I think that was a fluke after the market opened last weekend.  We will watch for new patterns to form near the bottom of either channel or near one of the Fibonacci levels on the Weekly Chart.

We have drawn a new bullish channel on the USD/CHF 2hr Chart after the sideways channel was broken.  I think we could be a pivotal moment in this pair because we also are hovering just above the long term 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of XA.

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.  We also have a secondary ABCD pattern now forming within the primary CD leg.  This is an excellent setup if the pattern completes as drawn.
Trade Invalidation
A move above 0.9060 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?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 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.

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.
