EURMXN trade ideas
EUR/MXN, Technical Analysis, February 5, 2018The EURMXN maintains the bullish momentum after the good economic results released during the last press conference two weeks ago by the president of the European Central Bank, Mario Draghi (Find below, all the ECB press conference highlights)
The pair couldn't break the previous resistance now support zone, maintaining the up trend. My recommendation is to buy with the objective at the next supply zone @23.50.
ECB press conference highlights, 25 January 2018:
• Robust pace of economic expansion, which accelerated more than expected in the second half of 2017.
• Real GDP increased by 0.7%, quarterly at 2017.
• Private consumption is supported by rising employment.
• Business investment continues to strengthen on the back of very favourable financing conditions, rising corporate profitability and solid demand.
• Housing investment has improved further over recent quarters.
• The broad-based global expansion is providing impetus to euro area exports.

EURMXN Short continuation and add on levelsEntered short in January '17 @23,01, been holding it since then and am now looking to add on in the coming months for wave 5. First add on to the short was @21,55 end of august. Next levels will be @22,01 for a quarter position, @22,30 for half a position and @22,57 for a full position if it even gets back up there.
Soft targets will be between retest of wave 3 @19,60 and the psychological 18,50 mark. For the long shot target we are looking at the 17,20 which if reached, would be the latest point where i start looking to go long. i see slim chances that it reaches all the way down there but hey, anything is possible. just in case i have a scenario set up for it and otherwise i will let my standing shorts get stopped out within decent profit levels.
EURMXN - CHANNEL SHORTWhile this pair hasn't respected it's long term channel too well - especially around the election - it has been in a strong up channel for the last 2 years. Friday's candle suggests that this pair will be bouncing off of the upper side of the channel in the short term. Be aware, this is a counter trend trade, so place your stop loss especially tight.
