Reason for Strategy
A move up has invalidated our trade yesterday, but there are still some interesting developments in this pair. We have drawn an ABCD pattern on the 4hr Chart that could converge with the bottom of the newly drawn bearish channel. The ABCD would also complete near the bottom of the bullish channel on the Daily Chart. We have not set up a trade yet, but we could see some support near the circles areas on each chart.

Reason for Strategy
The Gartley pattern we posted last Friday has been invalidated because
the pair rose above point A. Therefore, we have drawn a new bullish
channel. The channel is clean so far, but there have not been many
points of contact. Still, we will watch for new patterns to form
within the the bullish channel.

USD/JPY (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Sell USD/JPY at 89.88. Stop at 90.07. Profit targets at 89.60, 89.38.
| 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? | Top of bearish channel on the 4hr Chart. |
Reason for Strategy
A bearish Gartley pattern is forming on the USD/JPY 1hr Chart. The trade is forming nicely so far, and it would also enter near the top of the channel on the 4hr Chart. This is a textbook example of a Gartley.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 88.95 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 90.07 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.

USD/CHF (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Sell USD/CHF at 1.0238. Stop at 1.0283. Profit targets at 1.0171, 1.0119.
| What is the trend? | Down |
| What is this pattern? | Bearish 3-Drive - See all chart patterns |
| Why is this significant? | Converging Fibonacci levels provide strong resistance @ point 3. |
| What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis? | Bearish trend line on the Weekly Chart. |
Reason for Strategy
A bearish 3 drives patterns is forming on the 2hr Chart. As long time readers will see, this is basically a bearish butterfly with one extra component. This allows us to measure our profit targets a little differently, and gives us some more time for the pattern to work without hurting our risk:reward ratio. The pattern also would enter near a bearish trend line on the Weekly Chart.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 1.0070 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 1.0283 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.

| Why is this significant? | Converging Fibonacci levels provide strong resistance @ point D. |
| What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis? | Bearish trend line on the Daily Chart. |
Reason for Strategy
A bearish Gartley pattern is forming on the USD/CAD 4hr Chart. This pattern is slightly different then yesterday because point C is lower and we have made CD 127.2% of AB. There
are two candidates for point X, which both provide resistance near the
same point. The trade would also enter near the bearish trend line on
the Daily Chart.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 1.0445 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 1.0758 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.

Reason for Strategy
A bearish Gartley pattern is forming on the AUD/USD 30min Chart. Although there are not any "extras", this is a very nice pattern that we will still track.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 0.9260 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 0.9391 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.

Reason for Strategy
The NZD/USD has been tough to deal with since the large gap from last
weekend's open. There is not a whole lot of symmetry here and this is
a fairly weak bullish channel. We will likely stay away
from this one for a while because of the extreme gap.
