GBPJPY analysis - next week Dec 1st outlook

0 comments Sunday, November 30, 2008


chart h4 - at market close
the beast entraps within 300 pips consolidation phase
the bulls and the bears agree - at least temporarily - on the beast's price level
a imminent breakout could happen in either direction
to guard against a false breakout, place a stop:
  • below the upper BLUE trendline for a upwards breakout
  • above the lower BLUE trendline if the price breaks downwards
good luck and happy trading B-)

UPDATE:



chart h1 - 5 pm Malaysia
went short earlier at 146.00 when the yellow trendline was broken
price is now testing the lower BLUE trendline
already closed 1/2 lot (+200 pips) and moved SL to +50 for the remaining 1/2 lot...
will ride the profit

6.40 pm: +500 pips, SL moved to +100
10:30 pm: added another short at 140.56 - now +57 and +600
1.30 am:
partial closed 2nd order at +200
now remaining open orders +200 and +750 (1/2 lot each)

expecting price to hit 134.xx soon

GBPJPY analysis - dragonfly at daily chart???

0 comments Wednesday, November 26, 2008


daily chart - 6 am Malaysia
price bounced off minor trendline???
dragonfly candle??
explanation from http://candlesticker.com
The market is in a bullish mood characterized by an uptrend. Then we see a price action characterized by a sharp sell off when it opens. Prices move down going much lower than the opening price. Then we see a rally in the closing hours of the day, which closes the day at or very near the opening price. However this end-of- day rally signifies the potential for further sell offs. The long lower shadow shows how the market started the day with a sell off. If the market opens lower the next day, we may see a lot of longs eager to sell their positions.

UPDATE:
this is a swing trade... let see how far the beast will drop... :D
8.30 am: +180 pips, SL moved to +10
9.30 am: +140 pips
12.05 pm: +192 pips
5.30 pm: +110 pips, SL moved to +50
7.30 pm: +204 pips
9.00 pm: +238 pips
woke up next morning - SL hit... at least, i'm richer by 50 pips :-"

GBPJPY analysis - inverted cup and handle at h4??

2 comments Saturday, November 15, 2008


chart h4 at market closing
possible inverted cup and handle pattern?
usually a indication of trend continuation...
a breakout below 139.xx should be the confirmation...
the height of the cup indicates the possible target...
hence, should the breakout occurs, mission 115.xx would begin...
dateline: two weeks...
B-)
