NZDUSD - Still Expecting Bullish Pressure As we all can see, NZDUSD had allowed the bears into the neighborhood which is OK because it's been respecting a channel for some time now. If you are in a buy dealing with drawdown, there could still be hope. Price has retraced but HASN'T broken and closed below structure. Still hoping for the Bulls to take over and take price to highest level of resistance before the drop again. On the other hand, NFP NEWS is tomorrow morning 8:30 EST. Gotta keep that in mind when thinking of placing trades due to high volatility in the market. *This is just my personal opinion. This is not any financial advice as I am NO financial advisor.*

Pound continues to driftThe British pound is almost unchanged for a third straight day. Currently, GDP/USD is trading at 1.3964, up 0.07% on the day. The British pound is in tranquil waters this week, after the currency slid 1.5% late last week. The catalyst for the steep drop was the sharp jump in US Treasury bonds, which boosted the US dollar. However, with US Treasuries retreating, the dollar's rally has run out of steam, and GBP/USD has been trading slightly below the 1.40 level for most of the week. The UK services sector has been hard-hit by the Covid-19 pandemic, and health restrictions and the national lockdown have resulted in contraction in Services PMI for the past four months. Still, the PMI showed strong improvement in February, rising from 39.5 to 49.5 index points. This shows a degree of stability has returned to the services sector, which is just a tad below the 50-level, which separates contraction from expansion. The lockdown has resulted in pent-up consumer demand, and with the government slowly opening up the UK economy, we can expect the services sector to rise into expansion territory later in the year. Over in the US, the ADP Employment report was surprisingly weak, with a weak gain of 117 thousand. This was much lower than the previous release of 174 thousand and nowhere near the forecast of 203 thousand. The big question for investors is whether the weak ADP reading will be followed on Friday, when the official nonfarm payrolls report is released. The forecast stands at 185 thousand, and a significantly lower release could weigh on the US dollar. There is resistance just above the 1.40 level, at 1.4005. The next resistance line is at 1.4050 The first level of support is at 1.3954. Below, we find support at 1.3814. This is followed by the rising wedge at 1.3785

Low risk, high reward long opportunity pending on Gold Good day Tradingview, Great possibility on XAUUSD , minimal risk, major reward - However, do remember, patience is a virtue. As we approach NFP week, it's advised to be cautious as we would want to only go long after our desired, further push down, to 1690.00 and possibly even to the greater 1650.00 region. Additionally, fundamentals are required to tally with our technical analysis . In which case we'd seek buy limit orders, should those prices fail to reach - we would opt for market execution based on bullish confirmations and HL's. Resulting in placing of buy stops above between 1700.00 - 1750.00, and executing on pull backs all the way to the upside. Bullish flag confirmation resting on a monthly support and demand zone ticks the boxes - Essentially, we're just awaiting fundamentals to fall into place. Consider this trade opportunity a marathon , not a sprint . I foresee a buy bias for the future. Gold, as well as crypto will be continue to act as safe havens in these trying times of the Global economy. Updates to follow.

What to do around Major Economic News?Generally, price action traders believe that price discounts every factor that may influence a security's price. But you should Not Ignore Major (High Impact) Economic News Announcements like: Interest Rate decisions, Non-Farm Payroll, FOMC, Crude Oil inventories, and so on... REASON: - If you did take a trade in line with the result of the economic news release you stand to make a lot more money in a very short period of time. - But if your trade direction was against the news, you can walk away with all your profits wiped out or even a loss, and the loss can be huge because markets can move so fast during that period that your stop loss might not get triggered; so you end up losing much more of what you intended to lose. WHAT TO DO? As per my trading plan, I check the news calendar every Monday, and before the news release, I follow the table as per the picture above. Always think in terms of Risk vs Reward. For example: I always target (+2R) double the stop loss size and let's say my trade is floating around +1.8R If the news was in my favor, I would earn that extra +0.2R But if the news was against my trade direction, I would lose the 1.8R In this particular example Risk (losing 1.8R) >>> Reward (earning extra 0.2R) so I close the trade before the news release and book that +1.8R All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly! ~Rich

XAUUSD TO 1790Following the recovery of the Dollar index ( DXY ), XAUUSD has been following the inverse trend and dropping. It has made its first impulse move downside, currently in wave 2 which is the correction phase and now it is bouncing from the resistance zone indicating the corrections done and wave 3 to the downside is now about to begin. DXY is also creating an inverse Head & Shoulders pattern indicating another upwards move towards the $94 resistance. I will be cashing into this move alongside my Account Management investors.

USDCAD Conflicting CluesLast Friday we had unemployment figures from both Canada and the US. Below were the results. USA - Average Hourly Earnings (YoY): 5.4% USA - Nonfarm Payrolls: 49K USA - Unemployment Rate: 6.3% CAD - Employment Change: -212.8K CAD - Unemployment Rate: 9.4% Here you can see the US reported their unemployment rate at 6.3% signaling a nice improvement, following a not so nice NFP report with only 49k new jobs. On the other ide of this pair, Canada reported a much higher Unemployment figure at 9.4%. The initial reaction with USDCAD was bullish but then as the trading session progressed this pair continued getting weaker. Some key drivers heading into this week include: Earnings, Stimulus, Core CPI (Wednesday) US Federal Budget d (Wednesday) Fed Monetary Policy Report (Thursday) and perhaps some further CAD strength if Oil Continues it's bullish path towards $60. As we know, certainty surrounding additional stimulus supports a stronger equity market and thus drives the TVC:DXY lower. On a technical basis, the pair is indicating some strange behavioral patterns such as the convergence seen here on the daily chart. RSI did manage to close below 50 heading into Friday's close. A close below 50 does indicate that we could be heading lower but if you take a closer look how the 50 level behaved with this pair, you'll many instances when that may have been a misleading clue.. Needless to say, holding below 50 is taken into minor consideration, but we should also monitor the next 2 major fib levels such as the 50% and 61.8% illustrated on the chart. Key clues regarding the direction of this pair should include keeping a close tabs on the TVC:DXY TVC:SPX TVC:NDX TVC:VIX and of course overall market sentiment. Trading Recommendations == keep bullish trading activities light with this pair considering we may still see some further bearish downside == keep shorts limited as well considering there very well could be some upside towards 1.30 ------------------------- Please don't forget to FOLLOW, LIKE, and COMMENT ...

DXY could FALL again!Hey tradomaniacs, DXY (US-DOLLAR-INDEX) broke out of its trendchannel and could continue to fall if it braks the current support-zone 👉 Non-Farm-Payrolls almost as good as expected, but overall not as good as priced in. I did a lot of research due to the current correlations in the market. You might remember that I said that we will reach a point where the market is going to price in that the FED won`t continue with its current dovish monetary policy anymore, or at least, can`t increase their volume of certain liquidity-packages. The market would begin to "bet" against the central banks as they did back in the days and price in less liquidity and so in the future higher interest-rates when the economy recovers faster than expected. Now a worse NFP-Result could put these bettings agaisnt FED under pressure!

Will USDCAD rise?Today is an important day for both USD and CAD. Employment data from Canada and the USA are published at the same time. This leads to greater fluctuations. Technically, USDCAD broke the downward trend in which it was and started raising H1. This week we saw a sideways movement, and the break outside it will determine the future direction. The probable scenario is to see a new rise to 1.2937. And with more movement and momentum, the next level is 1.3067. The options for entering a trade are risky at the moment or wait for a break with the moment of the news! The idea breaks down when the previous bottom breaks!

Potential Sniper Shot off the 1.29 Handle - USDCADCurrently I'm bullish but I'll be bearish off the 1.29 handle. This morning we had fairly decent ADP figures from the US in at +174k. Typically on a monthly basis the ADP provides a leading clue as to what we might expect with the following NFP figures. My guess is that Non-Farm on Friday will come in hot and could add some strength to the greenback. I don't think the dollar will remain strong for too long though if we do in fact get some strength following the report. For that reason, I'm placing pending sell limit orders off the 1.29 area in an attempt to snipe the intra-day top. ------------------------- Please don't forget to FOLLOW, LIKE, and COMMENT ...
