Loonie Short?CAD hardly broke this descending wedge this week and finished this week right at support. The wonderful market left itself right here as the USD slumped a bit from resistance to finish the week.
We would look to short on a break and retest of the green zone. If we rally back into the wedge, I want to see what happens near that down trend line. A rejection would lead to another retest of the green zone or fail. Momentum through the trendline would certainly lead to a retest of the blue zone above.
6C1! trade ideas
***Short Opp***Really looking for price to get into our discount zone which is the area between the purple (89 week sma) and the yellow (89 day sma) to make a trade in the direction of the trend. However, this is an exhaustion candle here with the red arrow. This indicates the market testing new higher highs and then closing much lower than the high. The market didn't like those high prices and got exhausted.
Small opportunity but nevertheless an opportunity.
One could sell the futures contract or short the call option for a more conservative option (Pun intended)!
Futures trading involves series risk of financial loss and is not suitable for every investor.
Contracting triangle on Canadian future.Nice triangle, just wait till break trendlines and buy or sell accordingly
Looking to short the C$ MondayIts a gimme.
A close back below HZ R will target more aggressive entries
O CanadaSo, 1,45 or 1.50 are nice fib and Ch target for U$/C$.
But a simple line analysis suggests potential for even more considerable weakness for the CAD. Antipodeans short v CAD still preferred - Kiwi. then Aussie.
C$ is weak, but s/t, low-risk longsTho chances of pullback if Fib retraces of around Jan 4th (short USD/CAD @ 13980 T1 13733).
Sudden ratchet of Mid East tension could see this move fast.
Other x, esp vs NZD and AUD due a retrace (at least at first) - and then looking for poss trend reversal
Canadian dollar still weakIf price can't find the support at blue region, it could continue to plunge til near 0.76530
Or we could see a relief bound to fight back to 0.87950
Canadian Dollar H&S (re-issued)D6Z2014 - Canadian dollar has another opportunity to enter short. Today 02 Oct 2014 price reached the upper parallel line and bounced back suggesting a continuation of the bear trend. Targeting 0.8832.
Canadian Dollar H&S (re-issued)I have been stopped but still convinced CAD will move lower. Currently retesting the H&S neck line and the upper parallel. Good opportunity to enter short. Tergeting the bear median line. Good Reward/Ris
Canadian Dollar H&SCurrently retesting the H&S neck line. Reversal bar today, 19 Spet 2014 after testing the upper parallel. Good opportunity to enter short. Tergeting the bear median line. Good Reward/Risk.
Canadian dollar: Dive or gun the stops first?It is undoubtedly on of the strongest trends around, so well defined that makes you think "it can't happening" for more than a year now.
Looks almost ready to break the bear flag and dive, giving the $USDCAD the edge it needs to break it's respective triangle upwards. Although very famous triangle the last few weeks, data from Etoro - www.forex-tribe.com -{ true or not, don't have the slightest idea} shows only a limited amount of bulls around 19% currently long. If retail traders are more often than not wrong in major turns as the adagio says, then is a good think for the $USDCAD longs.
On the other hand, downtrend is almost exhausted as CCI prints lower readings than the major 2009 swing low and short term momentum is positively diverging. Needs a relief rally or have first to gun the stops nested in 91.20 area?
Don't have a clue. My only observation is that Oil ($CL1!, light blue line imposed) had a higher high while canadian dollar didn't , stubbornly continuing it's flag consolidation.
Mr Poloz did his job perfectly yesterday talking down the canadian dollar. If the white haired, mesmerising talker granny - that lot of people confusing with their own, forgetting that she represents one of the nastiest organisations on the planet - do her own today might have a different result than the commonly expected.
USdollar's Sentiment and public opinion is close to low readings. but not at extreme pessimist levels yet.
Safest road is to follow the trend. Even if it doesn't work , still gives a better sleep
Best of trading

The Loonie is gold-coloured - part3I'm still bear here. Price has not been not able to close strongly below the down-ward sloping median line and found support. It has then moved up nicely along the reaction line (blue line) and towards the upper parallel. I will wait few more days for the price to move higher. This is also a significant Fib retracement between 13 June 2013 high and 05 July 2013 low. Last one before going on holiday.
The Loonie is gold-coloured - part2As reported in my previous study on the monthly chart the Loonie is coming out of a 2year triangle formation. A Bear flag has formed at the down-sloping median line on the daily chart. A trade below the pivot low will confirm the sell signal with first target objective 0.92.
The Loonie is gold-colouredMajor ABC pattern between March and May has set-up a continuation of the down trend for the Loonie. Currently testing the upper down sloping parallel line. Another green bar or higher high on monday the 10th of June would be ideal to enter the short position.
