USDCAD Price Action: Pin Bar at Resistance. July 18, 2013

On July 14, I drew our attention to the break of support on the USDCAD, pointing out that my bias had turned bearish as we waited to see, a significant attempt by price to close above the New Resistance. This is yet to happen since sellers have always pushed price below the new resistance both times the bulls have made such attempts withing the week. Today's failed bullish attempt has led to the formation of a Pin bar Price Action Trade Setup. Price should as a result, commence its bearish run as long as the the minor support gives way and price is unable to bridge this weeks high.

AUDUSD Price Action: . Inside Bar Trade Setup Breaks North, July 17, 2013

 The Aussie seem to have found support after price broke out north from the Inside Bar Trade Setup at Key Support Zone. It is expected therefore that the bulls would kick in fully and attempt to push price higher into the next Key Supply Zone at about 0.9560. However, if this setup fails, price would make a quick dash back into the Key Support Zone and possibly lower.

EURUSD Price Action: Pulls higher after Fakey with Pin Trade Setup pulls higher. July 16, 2013


EURUSD has continued to trade higher following the Fakey with Pin Price Action Trade Setup, with the pair succesfully shaking off its previous bearish undertone after it hit its Key Support (Demand Zone). The trade room managed to get in on a trade off the one hour time frame as its PA presented an oppurtunity to go long which was in tandem with the daily Setup. Price could now target its Key resistance (Supply Zone) if it manages to break the previous week's high.

EURJPY Price Action: Pin bar Trade Setup pulls higher. July 15, 2013

 My trade commentary on this pair on 11th July spotted a Pin Bar Trade Setup on the pair, it also talked about the ascending trend-line as well as the pair being within its demand zone. The setup has eventually lead this pair higher but it now trades within its (Resistance) supply Zone. The overall trend still remains bullish unless we get significant Bearish Price Action Trade Setup at this zone, with subsequent confirmations at the lower time frames.

GBPJPY Price Action: Pin bar Trade Setup Pulls higher. July 15, 2013

I had brought the attention of my blog followers to the double Pin Bar on this pair in my trade commentary of the 12th of July, indicating that it suggested that the bulls were more in control of the market at that point. However, I got some emails and comments from some of my blog readers, contesting the efficacy of the trade setup. It is important to note that not all trade setups will lead eventually to profits, some will fail but we must endeavour to always trade what we see and not what we feel. 

My bias remains bullish and bullish entries still could be sort on the intra-day Time frames.

USDCAD Price Action: Inside Bar Trade Setup. Against Market Open, July 14, 2013.

USDCAD broke through its key support on Thursday July  11, 2013 and failed to close above it at the end of trading on friday, July 12. If price still fails to close above this Key support zone during early trading in the new week, we then should see further selloff of this pair toward the next Key support at about 1.0167.  Following this scenario, our bias shifts to bearish and attention would be more on the intraday timeframes for good price action sell setups to join the emerging bearish trend.
