22 July 2011

Strong supply zone at 1.3630-1.3660. If this is break will open all the way to 1.3830.If weekly candle closed above this supply zone, a good sign to achieve my 1st target.









25 July 2011

EURCAD start this week with about 40 pips gap up on the Monday morning. This pair manage to rally untill 1.3700 which is strong physiological level. Still uncertainty in the EUR zone regarding greece issue capped this pair to break 1.3700. Truth is i'm hoping it could break 1.3700 level which had bring me a bad decision based on emotional feeling. Sharp decline in this pair once it failed to to break the 1.3700 level. 
I had closed 2/5 of my position on the 0.382 retracement of reversal trend which is at 1.3619 with 161 pips profit. Remaining position had been lock in profit at 1.3570 below demand zone.However if the demand zone at 1.3575-1.3620 is hold i will be looking to add long position for this pair.

EURCAD H1 Bullish Crab Pattern - 7 July 2011

7 July 2011

Bullish Crab Pattern On EURCAD Hourly Chart.

This pattern is validate by 0.618 retracement of XA at B point and 0.382AB at C point.

PRZ is define by convergence of 1.618AB=CD and 3.618BC at 1.3700 and being complement by 1.618XA for lower limit in the PRZ.

Trade Details :
Entry : 1.3744
SL    : 1.3630 (114 pips)
Target 1 : 1.3850 (106 pips)
Target 2 : 1.3970 (226 pips)

I had entered this trade a little late as i'm waiting for price action to test 1.618XA. Price action manage to decline until 1.3660 about 15 pips from 1.618XA at the D point, then make a sharp reversal. Although in crab pattern it is critical for price action test all level in the PRZ zone, but for me 10-15 pips different is acceptable.Convergence of two important demand zone also had manage to capped price action from a complete test of PRZ. However, as the late execution in this trade, my SL is wider (106 pips) which make i'm only risk 1/3 of my normal lots.

8 July 2011

Exit all position at 1.3759 with 15 pips profit. Just don't like this trade because my entry is quite high. I will see if price action will make a second retest on the PRZ, maybe i can get nice entry there.
