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.

Reason for Strategy
I wanted to rip my eyeballs out when I had to post this trade as a loss after it entered immediately following a major British new announcement. Hopefully everyone checked the news calendar and didn't enter this trade, because it was a no win scenario to enter this trade when the pair was just below the entry before the announcement. This is a good reminder that we can't put every contingency on the site, and you still have to put in some work. At some point I will post an article that gives a thorough checklist to go over before entering any one of our trade.

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.

We have drawn a bearish trend line on the USD/CAD 1hr Chart. At this point, I am watching to see if the
pair breaks the trend line. The pair has seen support at 1.0072 (127.2% of XA), so it will be interesting to see what gives way here.

Reason for Strategy
We have redrawn the bullish channel on the AUD/USD to fit the current price action. The pair is near the top of the new channel, which may create some resistance. There is also possible resistance being caused by 78.6% of XA on the Daily Chart. A break above these levels could result in the test of the previous high at 0.9405.

NZD/USD (Swing Forecast)
Potential Strategy
Sell NZD/USD at 0.7141. stop at 0.7205. Profit target at 0.7055.
| 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
The bearish Gartley pattern has completed on the NZD/USD 4hr Chart. There
are three potential candidates for point X that all line up at the same
basic level. It is still possible to enter the trade at 0.7141 assuming the pair hasn't hit either the stop or the profit target. Also, note that we have slightly changed the profit target to 0.7055.
Trade Invalidation
A move above 0.7205 would stop the trade out.
