Spike-trading

CAD signaling a reverseAlerts went off this morning on the CAD pairs (USDCAD, EURCAD, CADCHF) with some intraday price action. Price spiked up on these pairs (down in the CAD) for the first part of the US session only to slam back to below the session opens. I'm going to play this as a confirmation of the countertrend pullback within a full reversal of the CAD's recent run-up. I want to play the move down to a target around 1.38 on USDCAD; the 50% retracement of the run-up.

Smarter than Buffett?"Delta plunges after Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway slashes its stake" is the morning's headline following the announcement. As investments I don't know why anyone would want to own airlines. They are too exposed to all kinds of risk... world economic factors, energy, terrorism, and now plagues. But to trade airlines... the contrarian in me combined with a price action alert makes me want to test for an opportunity. Earnings are this week and I do not expect anything they say to help or harm what is already known; that Delta is burning through a whopping $60 million per DAY! So while there is some earnings gap risk I'm going to keep my position small and exploratory. Let's see if this is the double bottom of the Daily.

Potential trade setup: EUR/AUD analysisAs previously mentioned EUR/AUD has overextended into the yearly highs price region, even though we should be expecting a retracement price can be easily manipulated around this region especially ahead of a lot of fundamentals data from ECB and AUD policy details out this week that could easily be a key driver in market activity. Awaiting for a potential 3rd drive into the highs before considering additional shorts to the targeted region to bounce off the trendline which is in alignment with the 50% fib line.
