Trader’s Psychology: Attributes for Success

Successful trading depends, in my opinion, 80% on psychology and 20% on methodology. This is why self-knowledge and studying one’s own behavioral patterns represent the key to success.We all well know that the Forex market is highly volatile and that generally decisions have to be made in very short spans of time. Uncertainty dwells above all things, and though nowadays we can count on many tools and techniques, nobody knows for sure what will happen to the market prices. In… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis





Fears that the trading could pull back upwards turned out to be correct - the price bagan to grow and raised to resistance 1.3640/50, passing yesterday mentioned barriers 1.3570/80. Indicators changed their readings to "bullish", but R% raised to overbought zone, which can indicate the end of the growth and SS being oversold gives reason to asume that current growth is just a correction after the recent decline.… Continue

What are Divergences and how to use them to increase Forex profits

Divergences occur when the price of a currency pair and an oscillator-type indicator move in opposing directions. In technical analysis, you can make decisions by identifying situations where the divergence (for example the price of a currency pair moves in a contrarian direction from another indicator as for example the Moving Average Convergence/Divergence – MACD).



There will be a divergence… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



There haven't been any unexpected events in the pair and the assumptions of a possible price fall confirmed. Attempt to breach key support 1.3570, mentioned previously, is currently being made. Indicators suggest further downward movement and give reason to expect the breakout of this barrier. If it happens, a decline will proceed to support levels - 1.3500/1.3490 and 1.3380/90. Taking into account possible MACD… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



Sideways consolidation continued within the range 1.3770/60-1.3570, like it had been previously assumed. The price still resides in this range, at level 1.3630/40. Indicators are turning downwards, which explains the anticipation of a further price fall to the new minimums. Nevertheless, to continue their trend the "bears" have to breach support 1.3570 with the following high possibility of levels 1.3500/1.3490 and… Continue

Forex4you Technical Analysis 12/11/10

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



The dramatic decline of the last few days has slowed after alighting on the 50 day MA and a small countertrend rally has begun from this morning’s lows. There is a high probability that this is an Elliot wave 4 correction of yesterday’s decline. The majority of wave 4’s end in a retracement zone of 20-50% of 1-3 and so this 4 could reverse at any moment given we have retraced over 20% already. The 50% level is… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



The pair prefers a downwards movement, like it had been expected. The price descended to support 1.3660/40, but for a short period of time, and then returned upwards, so it's now consolidating around levels 1.3730/50. The consolidsation channel support has been breached but it now turns out to be a strong risistance, which which prevents the trading from moving upwards. Indicators don't suggest any particular… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



Strong resistance 1.3960/70, mentioned in the previous comment, triggered a pullback downwards, which brought the price to lower than expected supports. After level 1.3730/40 the price bounced upwards and currently resides at 1.3790/80. In case the price falls below 1.3860/40, the "bearish" moods will strengthen, which is already seen on the indicators, that suggest sich a possibility. Yesterday's assumptions that… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



The exchange rate has been falling and it may carry on until it reaches a substantial layer of support around 1.3800. Nearby 1.3806 is also the objective of yesterday’s flag pattern, so further downside may well halt there. We have also had a complete 5 Elliot wave impulse pattern down, which began at the 1.4085 highs achieved yesterday morning. There is a chance, therefore of a correction off this wave, which may… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis





Assumptions of the previous comments, that the "bears" have all chances to seize the initiative are likely to come true. The price breached key supports 1.4100 ? 1.4040, and the trading is currently carried on at level 1.3920/10. Indicators are tyurned downwards, suggesting further descending of the price. Uptrend channel line (red lines) breakout indicates a possibility of a next fall to 1.3780 and then to the… Continue

EURJPY Staircase on Weekly Charts

This week’s candle for the Euro-Yen has pierced the steeper down-trend line and is trading above the 25% retracement where it encounters a strong resistance area which had been repeatedly holding as support from October 2008 to February 2009, finally pierced in last May and subsequently broken to the downside.



According to the Trendline Staircase Strategy, we could expect the currency pair to push forward…

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



The exchange rate has broken out of the triangle formation it was in since the 15th October and it will not probably rally higher reaching the 1.44s at least. This is likely to be an 5th Elliot wave of the second leg of the zig-zag which started at the June lows, so once it has finished there may be a sharp decline. There has been a bullish breach of the cloud on the weekly Ichimoku chart but price will have to remain… Continue

Forex4you Technical Analysis 03/11/10

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



Longer term this pair could be in an Elliot wave 4 triangle with wave 5 targeting 1.42 to 1.45. The current rally would be labelled a wave D with E down poised to begin. Since most of the legs up until D have retraced slightly over 76.40% of the preceding wave it is likely that wave E will do the same yielding a downside target of 1.3810. Wave D appears to be composed of a zig-zag and then an impulse from November the… Continue

Trendline Staircase Strategy

The Trendline Staircase Strategy is a very simple system based on diagonal supports or resistances, and a sequential series of previous trend lines. It can be employed whenever there has been at least one steep deviation from the average angle of the main trend causing the formation of a new trendline.



On the example shown with the GBPJPY Daily chart below, we can appreciate a sequence of three successively steeper trend…

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



Support 1.3940/20 was breached, but the price only descended to level 1.3860, which became a starting point for the growth reversal. The trading is currently carried on at level 1.3980, thus returning to yesterday's maximums. Indicators are "bullish" again, suggesting further possible growth. At the same time there is a strong resistance at level 1.4000/10 on the way, which has all chances to… Continue

EUR/USD: Technical Analysis



Support at level 1.3800/1.3780 stopped the price fall and brought the trading back to the breached uptrend channel line (blue dashed line). The price tested levels 1.4000/10, but it didn't manage to break this barrier, so it's currently pulling back and resides at 1.3950/60. Indicators show a reversal downwards, which suggests further descend in the price. Support 1.3940/20 breakout is seen rather significant at the… Continue
