USD/CAD Bearish Divergence Set UpA bit late in posting, but since my entry short hasn't triggered, I though I'd write a quick post. So price met resistance at the 1.3350 area and closed underneath as a high test bar. A short entry signal is pronounced with the accompaniment of oscillator divergence on the Stochastic and RSI indicator. As it is Friday, there is a lull in the markets as usually is, price may still fail to trigger an entry short and they way the price bar appears now price action may close as an inside bar for which a short entry can be revised.
entry - below low of high test bar or low of inside bar
stop loss - above high of high test bar
target - previous low/lower

Divergence, again, on USD/CADAlthough in a healthy uptrend, USDCAD has run into resistance at ~1.3070 which happens to be a price level on the weekly chart that has previously been tested (as support in April 2004 and resistance in March 2009). Price closed below this level on Friday as a high test bar. Coupled with bearish divergence on the Stochastic and RSI indicator a price action behaviour is suggestive of bearish sentiment. Judging by the optimistic Fed outlook to raise interest rates, and positive expectation from the US economy from improving economic data, a stronger US Dollar is likely to continue. The following short setup banks on a technical perspective to take advantage of a sell signal; potentially a temporary run.
entry - below low of high test bar
stop loss - above high of high test bar
target - previous level at ~1.2771
