NZDUSD has been in free fall since late September last year, barreling straight toward the 0.55 Monthly support—a level that’s triggered two explosive reversals before. Could this be the third? I’m already in the trade, and here’s why I’m feeling confident. Let’s rewind a bit. Two weeks ago, we saw a clean break of the weekly trendline. Now, this is where a lot...

(Apologies if the video is hard to understand—I bit my tongue during boxing sparring this morning!) USDCAD has been on an incredible 17-week rally, but the price now appears extremely overextended and is showing signs of exhaustion. Yesterday's NFP report brought a huge upside surprise, fueling a strong USD rally against all major currencies. While EURUSD,...

It’s a path of discovery, trials, and transformation, where the ultimate prize isn’t just financial success but...

USDJPY has been on a tear these past few weeks, charging toward some key higher timeframe resistance areas. Checking out the Monthly chart, I’m spotting what looks like a major trend reversal pattern. In July, USDJPY hit 162, and the resulting sell-off did two big things: it broke the long-term trendline and took out the last swing low from the previous leg up....

You know the feeling. You place a trade, and instead of it taking off in your favor, it immediately starts slipping into the red. It happens almost every time, especially if you’re a swing trader. And for some, this drawdown can last for days, weeks, or even months. Whether you're a day trader dealing with quick losses, a swing trader battling long-term dips,...

The big day has arrived: the first Fed rate cut. The burning question is, will it be 0.25% or 0.5%? In recent days, the markets have been leaning toward a 0.50% cut. Could this be the catalyst for a breakdown below the critical 100 level in the USDX? Let’s break down the charts and find out. Looking at the weekly charts, the 100 level has been a solid support...

Are we about to see a double bottom reversal, or will price break down again? Going back to my idea posted in December 2023 (see related post), we had a great buying opportunity on the dip below 0.94, followed by a strong rally towards parity, falling just 80 pips short. That upward move ended in May, and since then, the price has broken down again, with last...

Is GBPUSD setting up for a massive reversal, or are we on the brink of one final explosive push above 1.31? We've seen quite a rally this month with GBPUSD, as it cleanly broke through the 1.30 level this week, climbing above 1.31 yesterday and hitting a 2023 high, which is now acting as resistance. So, what's next? At 1.313, we've reached last year’s high,...

Is the EURUSD on the verge of a major breakout, or are we heading for another disappointing retreat? Once again, we’re sitting above the 1.10 zone, and the price has moved into the upper range territory. Since early 2023, EURUSD has been stuck in a weekly range between 1.05 and 1.104, with only one quick rally to 1.12 that was quickly faded. Are we finally...

But most traders learn this lesson the hard way, often after years of frustration, losses, and self-doubt. To become a successful trader, you must truly know yourself.
