The GBP/USD rallied back into the channel.  Therefore, this channel is not nearly as clean as we like.  There are simply too many breaches.  We will leave it up for another day, but hopefully something new develops for tomorrow.  Also, make a note to keep watching the bullish butterfly on the Daily Chart.

USD/JPY (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Sell USD/JPY at 90.17. Stop at 90.47. Profit target at 89.72.
What is the trend?Down
What is this pattern?No pattern present - 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?Bearish channel on Weekly Chart. Trade would enter one pip away from 78.6% of AB on the Weekly Chart.
Reason for Strategy
A bearish Gartley pattern is forming on the USD/JPY 30min Chart.  The pair has been in a long term downtrend for a while, and we would also enter at almost the exact 78.6% Fibonacci retracement of AB.  That ratio was originally support, but old support often can become new resistance.  The pair has moved sideways for a while, so be cautious of a rapid move up that could indicate long bars.
Trade Invalidation
A move below 88.75 before reaching point D would cancel the trade. Additionally, a move above 90.47 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 10 pips of hitting the entry, does not enter, and reaches 0.8960, the trade is also invalidated.

What is the trend?Neutral

Why is this significant?There is no high probability pattern so we cannot place a trade.
What other indicators or Fib Levels support this thesis?No trade
Reason for Strategy
The USD/CHF has dropped through the bullish trend line on the 8hr Chart.  However, the line has been pierced before, and it held that time.  Then again, we could be seeing resistance after the bearish Gartley completed on the Weekly Chart.  However, we didn't place a trade because the convergence wasn't strong enough.  We will simply stay on the sidelines and see what happens next.

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.
