USOIL: WAITING FOR THE SELLI don't typically watch oil too much but with all that's been in the news over the past few weeks how could I resist. Also being involved in the USDCAD trade that I shared with you guys last week caused me to keep one eye open as well.
Anyway, despite the fundamentals (some of which are screaming short) the technicals are what matter to me most and in a heavy downtrend I'm not looking to hop on the bullish move late, rather I'd be looking for the next place to reload short orders and see if I can catch the next wave down. Syndicate members I'm going to record a brief video for you outlining this trade so check your emails in a little while. But I think I did a rather good job of trying to be as detailed as possible with all that I see.
I actually think we could go lower at our current point so this one may be worth taking two shots on.
Killzone
XAUUSD: 1 AT MARKET & 2 POTENTIAL GARTLEY'SObviously we want to be very cautious going into tomorrow's trading session which features our monthly Non-Farm Employment change aka the Fireworks show. but was digging through some different markets tonight and noticed the abundance of opportunity setting up on gold. The orange Gartley pattern is technically completed but features a very shallow "D" leg which significantly increases the risk and reduces the reward of the move. With multiple harmonic moves and Fibonacci confluence featured in that area it's worth taking a zoomed in view on a lower timeframe inside that "Killzone" and waiting for an alternate entry technique to see if you can grab a better price. Perhaps something to watch and not trade going into Friday.
