AUDNZD is in a longer-term downtrend. Recently it is in a short-term uptrend but that is looking to be short-lived.
We have what looks like a double top around key resistance, with a large bearish pin bar that is protruding previous price. This is one of my favorite type of pin bars because it works like a slingshot. Price tried to break into higher ground, but the bears stepped in showing their strength, pushing the price back below the key level.
My trade was taken on the 50% retrace of that protruding pin bar in conjunction with: - Key resistance level - Market swing point (double top) - Moving averages are neutral indicating a possible range-bound market, if so that is good news for the trade - 50% retrace from the most recent highest high and lowest low - Recent event area - The overall trend is down (long-term) but potentially in a short-term range - RSI trending and curling down once more - Full STC in extreme levels and turning down
This is a good set-up with a potential 3 to 1 risk if it reaches the bottom part of the new range. Remember set your stops and do not risk to much if you decide to take a similar position.
