Dark Cloud Cover on SBKA dark cloud cover has formed on JSE:SBK which is a top reversal signal, so we can expect a downwards move.
A dark cloud cover follows a preceding up trend where a red candle opens up above the previous day's green candle and closes 50% below it's body.
This particular pattern has formed on quite a strong resistance level which solidifies the signal.
We will look at entering a short position if it trades around the 17200 level with a target around the previous support level of around 16000.

CHF/ZAR Update - Update to 11-20-18 (Link Included)CHF/ZAR Update
If you followed the trade idea I posted on my TradingView on 11-20-18 (), we see how we have progressed. As charted, we hit TP. Hopefully you took your profits as noted on December 4, 2018. The reversal did occur as expected and we saw a series of impulsive moves and corrections (see current flag). Be sure your profits are protected. Although I anticipate another push to the upside, it does not have to continue. Please note all ideas are simply ideas. Exotic pairs especially are extremely volatile. Trade at your own risk and always, always always exercise proper risk management. Happy New Year to all! 2019 will be a great year!
EURZAR Long PositionExpect the EUR and USD to gain some strength over many developing countries currencies in the near future. We had a positive daily green pip movement corresponding nicely with our MACD! I am however going to be looking closely at the riots occuring this weekend in France as things can get out of hand really fast with the political climate in that country and the impact it might have on the Eurozone in general.
USDZAR approaching resistance, potential drop! USDZAR is approaching our first resistance at 6.8172 (horizontal pullback resistance, 50%, 61.8% Fibonacci retracement, 100% Fibonacci extension) where a strong drop might occur below this level pushing price down to our major support at 6.600 (horizontal swing low support, 100% Fibonacci extension).
Stochastic (34,5,3) is also approaching our resistance and we might see a corresponding drop in price should it react off this level.
USDZAR Bullish Wedge, Part 2Sometimes i just get really scared of myself :) Anyway, so far going almost perfect. The entries are already in since the bounce up was so strong this time. I have added a third entry for this game plan, that is if we see a daily close above that red zone, i will add even more to this position if we see something like a bull flag happening.
If this plan works out, i will take profit in 4 parts towards the target, but leaving 25% open with a tight stop below it, just in case this wave up would get extended.
Previous analysis:
USDZAR bullish wedgeThere is possible bullish wedge here. It's not the best one but there are many good characteristics of a wedge. I am going to play it safe and will wait a bit more before i will get in. I want to see it go towards the support line one more time and see it get find some support there. Then i will get in with half a position and make the position complete after the breakout.
USDZAR approaching support, potential bounce! USDZAR is approaching our first support at 13.60 (100% Fibonacci extension, 50%, 78.6% Fibonacci retracement, Horizontal pullback support, Descending channel support) where a strong bounce might occur above this level pushing price up to our major resistance at 13.97 (61.8% Fibonacci extension, 38.2% Fibonacci retracement, Horizontal overlap resistance).
Stochastic (55,5,3) is also approaching our support and we can see a bullish divergence where we might see a corresponding bounce in price.
ZARJPY: Approaching the Resistance.The price action has been narrowed down from a Channel Up to a Rising Wedge on 1D (RSI = 63.891, MACD = 0.106, Highs/Lows = 0.0795). Technically every pull back up to 8.000 is a buy towards the 8.550 Resistance (ext. 8.876).

ZAR/JPY 1H Chart: Rising wedge in sightThe ZAR/JPY currency pair breached a long-term descending channel north at the beginning of November. The South African Rand has been depreciating against the Japanese Yen since the end of August. This movement has been bounded in a rising wedge.
Currently the exchange rate is testing the resistance level formed by the Fibonacci 50.00% retracement at 8.23. Given that the pair is being supported by the 55-, 100– and 200-hour SMAs, it is expected that the pair target the upper wedge line located circa 8.46 in the nearest future.
If given wedge holds, it is likely that a reversal south occurs within the following trading sessions.

During this week the pair has been trying to breach the resistance level formed by the weekly R1 at 14.54.
