Update and quick review on main FX pairs for tomorrow

Will be trading as normal tomorrow from the European and London Opens

Just noticed today we have had 300k page hits in under 10 months (y)

OK

EU

Last week or so - price as continue to fall with a low so far today at 3332 area at 11 00 am TW this morning

Since then we have retraced and hit 3387 and basically if we stay under say 3410 - we should fall again

Trouble is then - will we do a new low under 3332 - or a crafty HL putting us into a BTTZ area to tease and just trick both bulls and bears ?

GU

Similar to EU - been bearish and been falling to a low so far of 6809 end of July

Since then been doing the HL's and HH's and now need above 6900 to show it still trying for a larger turn up

I cannot see it getting above 7000 whilst still in a down bias - but who know's certainly not many - but rather than guess - I will be within 5 -10 pips of where ever it goes - ie down to 6500 or back up to 7000 - that's the beauty of short term intraday trading.

EJ

Another pair thats dropped over 200 pips in last month with new low today at 136 14

Any bounces should stay under 136 85 or if not 137 00 - 15 and then question will it drop lower with another new low - or post a HL ?

EA and AU

Today I notice the AU as been bullish again and the EA bearish

The EA as stayed above its 4209 low of a few weeks ago - but as dropped from a LH at 4450 area down to 4269 /70 today

Under 4450 still bearish - but will we do a HL above 4209 rather than dip into the 4100 area

AU - For August its been bullish again - making a 9272 low and rising so far back up to 9375

So much for the Elliot Wave guy's - yes they had it falling but by now saw it down under 9240 and as low as 9200 area

Cad - Price as risen over 350 pips last month - but still not made 1 1000 - instead 09885 area today.

Needs under 0900 and 0870 to make me thinks it turning bearish really - but like all pairs expect to both scalp trade in both directions for 7 -25 pip trades

UJ

Been doing the LH's and LL's for August - falling from 103 10 area down to 101 78 today

Retraces - bounces up should stay under 102 60 for more falls again - but do we then go under 101 50 or not- dont know yet ?

Swissy - UChf

With dollar strength we have seen 250 pip + rises over last 5 -6 weeks to 9115 today

Still in HH and HL mode - but now - no try over 9120 and could show the dollar strength is fizzling out and some turn is on the way

Hope to be milking the market tomorrow as first day back from my break and so looking forward to some trading

Need to check out calender etc and available for at least 8 hrs tomorrow from the Opens with normal 30 -60 min breaks through out the day

Good trading to you - got the feeling MM is still on holiday

That reminds me will post some abbreviation updates


Regards

6 45 am UK time

EJ

Been busy this morning already with a 35 pip rise in the last hour or so

Price is presently in a pullback from high of 137 12 - and really although a scalp sell atm - we should be able to scalp buy again if price stays above 136 91/ 93

We do have a resistance area at 137 -18 /20 so would need to see at least 3 or 5 pips above to then hold scalp buys on longer for higher.

Supports at 136 75/77 and as mentioned 91/93 - so both would need to breached to hold any scalp sells on for lower
 
7 00 am

EU

For now its topped at 3392/3 and under 3390 is a scalp sell - but needs under 78 and 75 to hold on for LL's otherwise take what you can

If price stays above 3375/78 then it would be a scalp buy again for another try at 3388 -92 or another high
 
GU

For August the GU is trying to turn up again from its 6810 low - making 6886 but then a LH at 6865 yesterday

For me we need to stay above 6830 area for further tries up again with price at 6843 for now

Its still a scalp sell under 6853/4 - but need to fall under 6840 to test lower and the important support area
 
AU and EA

Big changes for these 2 after news in the Asian session

After yesterday rises in the AU and the EA falls - we have had a big reversal going on with AU down to a new low at 9263 - breaking under supports at 75 to 80 area

EA as been a near 150 pip + bounce from under 4300 yesterday at 4270 to then 4320 and then after news - up to 4447 area

We have peaked for now and its a scalp sell under 46 but needs under 30 and 26 to hold scalp sells on longer

With AU normally being the opposite - thats in an up bounce scalp buy atm from 9263

If we dont make over 9276 and 80 - take any profit you can
 
7 00 am

EU

For now its topped at 3392/3 and under 3390 is a scalp sell - but needs under 78 and 75 to hold on for LL's otherwise take what you can

If price stays above 3375/78 then it would be a scalp buy again for another try at 3388 -92 or another high

Comment from approx 35 mins ago

i exited 70% at 76 and then the rest off the scalp sell at 72

From 7.21 am and new TW it was a scalp buy again now with low at 3371 - which now needs to hold

If it does not hold and the scalp buy bounce does not make 3384+ then we could have a further drop under 70 to next supports at 67 and then 3555 area
 
7 39 am - end of half hr TW

GU

Under 6850/53 still a scalp sell with present low on scalp sell at 6837

i am down to 30% stakes on scalp sell and would exit that part if the low holds 30 mins and - or if we make above 6845
 
7 48 am

Out for approx 30 mins or so at LO

will be back next hr and then most of morning and will then update other pairs etc

Best trade so far for me is EJ sell - now at 136 77 - wanted to scalp buy at 91 /93 but no line up and price was still falling

Going to take 100% stake off for popping out as we are in another support area - but might regret it

See you in the next hr after 8 25 am
 
Morning BP

CAD update

For me above 0905 and 0900 - still in a bullish mode and for last 3 hrs price as risen approx 20+ pips to 0933

Above 25 still a scalp buy with R's at 40 and 50 /55 area
 
News Today

Seem to have a lot of red news announcements between midday UK time to 3 00 pm - on various countries including UK / US / Eurozone and the Cad

Up till then might be a quiet morning - but hope I am wrong ;-)
 
8 46 am

EJ - I fully exited a scalp sell at 77/8 . Price bounced back up to 92 and then under 90 became another scalp sell and as now dropped under 77 previous low to now 136 71

Under 83/85 on any bounces should be another scalp sell to test low again.

Above 87 and 92 then hold any scalp buys you might take above say 73/75

Under 136 69 and 66 carry on with more scalp sells

Comments on AU and EA from 2 hrs ago

EA now fallen to 4416 - down to 30% stakes on sells and still a sell under 32 for now

AU not been so good and exited that scalp buy earlier on with only 2 pips
 
9 21 am - new TW for half hr change

GU

low after LO was 6834 and then had a HL at 36/7 saying scalp buy at 9 06 am in hr TW

Only made 7 pips so far and pulling back - but whilst above 6837 still in scalp buy mode or bias

Would need under 33 and 30 to scalp sell again
 
Good morning all
