Im comparing these two pairs because they are supposed to run opposite to each other....Euro is showing a lot of hesitation at the weekly 618 resistance...240 chart has an evening star so far, and lower tf's have broken the up trendline....chf daily chart has reached a "d" extension, and the 60min chart has macd bullish divergence.

:)

Happy pipping

Raj

Euro still bullish, last swing was a minimal risk entry at the 86 fib, running upto its "d" extension this morning, so, one more candle and we may have out next 30min swing. The weekly 618 res still holding.

:)

Raj

Daily euro chart has hit the 127 res - i have been taken in on a short at 4710...banked at 4650 which was 382 support on the 60min...will wait for next pattern

:)

Happy pipping

Raj
10-26-2009, 10:24 AM
Going to see if anything bullish forms at the Sk on both pairs....at the 618 of the major swings

Raj good job on E/Chf :)

Raj
10-26-2009, 01:45 PM
Rob, im taking short at the 86 fib on chf, and 786 on euro so far...there is bigger 382 upp/res at this level.

:)

Raj
10-28-2009, 09:15 PM
Daily charts are at Trendlines & supp & res fibs. Certainly pairs to watch

:)

Hi Raj,

Thanks for the tips.

I have both SK support & resistance in those pairs respectively.

Cheers.

I'm long on the eur/usd - see a crown on the 15min chart - long 4647 and going to scale out on this one with 4665 and 4680 and last lot will see :)...i'm going with 3 lots on this bad boy :) It's above the asian channel and made a swing low allready. Rob

supra
10-29-2009, 05:07 AM
Good on you, Rob!

I myself have just gone long at 1.4753 after an MS in the 240. Planning to bank half at 1.4825 (SK resistance) and let the remaining ride if everything works well.

Cheers.

Raj
10-29-2009, 07:10 AM
You guys are good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Raj,

We couldn't have done it without you.

Attached is a 15 min of EURUSD, just short of a definitive CF but it still shows that what you teach is gold.

Thank you.

Raj
10-29-2009, 11:09 AM
nicely done on the long....now just watching what the market gives us at SK res.

:)

Rob123
10-29-2009, 11:47 AM
Great job Raj and thanks for all the teachings ! Great job Supra ! I hit both targets my last lot got knocked out on a trailing stop. Still came out smelling ok :) Rob

supra
10-29-2009, 04:40 PM
Banked 50% at SK resistance, moved stop on balance to 1.4665.

Price made a higher high on 60, so on the look-out for a bullish crown now.

Cheers.

Raj
10-30-2009, 10:13 AM
Hi Supra, I have taken a long at the 786 fib on euro...and at the 86 respectively on chf....cross your finger for me!!!

:)

Raj
10-30-2009, 11:21 AM
Sorry, I should mention...there is nothing bullish formed yet, so pretty aggressive entry as you say....thought process being that we may be testing that daily bullish engulfing candle.

If it doesn't work out, bearish target remains at 4625 (127 supp), then the D ext at 4545

:)

supra
11-02-2009, 02:06 AM
Hi Raj,

All fingers & toes crossed. :)

I still have half of my position opened from last week with t/p placed at 1.4825. Looks like the market is consolidating between 1.4700 & 1.4850 for now.

Cheers.

Raj
11-03-2009, 05:16 AM
Bears took control...their first target hit at exactly 4625 as mentioned...may get some pullback here, so watch short positions....next target d extension down at 4550.

:)

supra
11-03-2009, 07:13 AM
Hi Raj,

All position closed as well here.

Am with you now waiting for a pullback. Would be excellent if we could get a C at 1.4700. And just in case it gets there during my bedtime, please double your position for me. :D

Raj
11-03-2009, 02:50 PM
Lets see what the market gives us at the sk supp/res on both pairs.

:)

Raj
11-11-2009, 09:33 AM
Both pairs hit their 162% targets, and now we have the new 60min swings. Will look to the fib levels...hopefully 618 levels for the bounce.

:)

Raj
11-11-2009, 06:32 PM
we have possible bear crowns and bull crowns on eur/chf respectively. If the market is unhappy with the current 382 bounces, and we get a CF at these levels, then perhaps we can look for gartley setups if we reach the D extensions of the counter trend moves.

:)

Raj
11-12-2009, 04:49 AM
Small crown set-up worked out nicely on both pairs for some pips...30min charts gave nice CF's. We're just stalled at the 127 supp/res so far, hopefully we get that Gartley trade.

:)

Raj
11-12-2009, 06:13 AM
Ii have gone long on euro at the 618 support, and shorted chf at the 618 res...the only thing that concerns me is the daily sto's are turning...so i will watch out for supp/res fibs on the 30min chart since that is the one we traded the crowns on.

:)

supra
11-12-2009, 08:00 AM
Hi Raj,

Superb trades, as always!

Cheers.

Raj
11-12-2009, 08:15 AM
Thanks Supra, it seems the employment numbers are toying with my current position, but we'll see what happens.

:)

Raj
11-13-2009, 07:24 AM
well managed to get my lost pips back from my 618 trades, and this morning mi short and long on euro/chf from sk levels. Its been good trading for a Friday so far.

:)

Raj
11-13-2009, 10:16 AM
We got a signal on the 30min chart at 4846 to go long when we came to test the low, and now 240 chart has textbook tweezer bottoms, and 60min AB boundary still holding at the 86 fib. Not sure how much momentum we will see Friday afternoon, but I've found that staying on 30/15/5 min charts on a Friday is the way to go.

:)
Happy pipping

Raj
11-13-2009, 10:21 AM
Forgot the charts

:)

Raj
11-13-2009, 12:39 PM
I have taken scalp trades at the trend lines on both pairs. In the event we just came up to test the daily MS on euro and ES on chf

:)

Raj
11-26-2009, 09:10 AM
Euro has come back to the old cons res that may become support now...would be great to see something bullish form at this level. Watching it closely.

:)

Raj
11-27-2009, 08:15 AM
Euro had pulled down to the 86 fib, great entry with stop going below the "A"...will see how it plays out. We are back inside that old cons range from before, so we'll watch the previous res level at 4985 area, otherwise so far so good.

:)

Raj
11-29-2009, 06:11 PM
Great CF during the Asian session...added some lots.

:)

Raj
12-01-2009, 09:28 AM
We cleared the B high and low on eur and chf respectively this morning. Euro target at the 118 D ext, chf at the 127 D ext...hopefully they reach their targets soon.

:)

Raj
12-01-2009, 06:33 PM
One of my buddies asked the other day, what if you miss the point "C" entry on the big swing, so I've attatched the 15min chart. Euro has been following the retracement and fib extensions to a "t".

:)

Happy pipping

Raj
01-26-2010, 08:39 AM
240 euro chart is awfully close to the D extension - we didnt quite hit it on the last swing, so be cautious with the shorts I always say at this point.

:)

Raj
01-26-2010, 07:59 PM
Miscalculated one swing...new AB boundary on 240 chart revised with a 382 bounce so far.

:)

pipsqueakr
01-28-2010, 04:31 AM
1hr CHF possible BeC

Raj
01-28-2010, 06:24 AM
Careful on this one Kurt...Im seeing bull bird on the 240 with B high acting as support, also on euro bear candle being tested at B low

:)

pipsqueakr
01-28-2010, 05:21 PM
Thanks for the heads up sir

Raj
01-29-2010, 10:42 AM
60 min bulls limited us out, 240 D ext not too far off.

:)

pipsqueakr
02-02-2010, 08:52 AM
well i've been long... since about 3880

but saw what looked like a BeC on a 5m... and took it.. it did exactly what it was supposed to. 86 fib to 1.18 ext that was fun... very little risk

Raj
02-02-2010, 09:02 AM
Sweet pips in the bank....nice one!!

:)

Raj
02-02-2010, 01:51 PM
Both charts are at SK supp/res...but since we are above/below the trendlines, I personally need a CF to enter any trades here.

Happy Pipping

:)

Raj
02-03-2010, 05:26 AM
nothing bullish formed at that 382, infact we got a nice long signal for eur for some pips to the trendline. chf currently testing the TL and 50 fib.

:)

Raj
02-04-2010, 07:02 PM
3640 area are some converging targets, along with some support on the daily...will be watching

:)

Raj
02-09-2010, 10:43 AM
Im scalping off the 382 & 618 levels on both charts here

:)

Raj
02-10-2010, 08:35 AM
Scalps have turned into good trades!!!!

:)

Raj
02-10-2010, 11:29 AM
Keeping an eye on the 30min chart as we've created a bear crown pattern with the 240 bearish candle.

:)

Raj
02-11-2010, 07:14 AM
Well I had a 3738 short on this pair from yesterday where we had a possible congruence with the TL, so I hung in there and finally the market found the RT at the 86 fib, putting me in a positive position finally. Stops ideally above the "A" - good example.

:)
Happy pipping

Raj
02-11-2010, 08:15 AM
I've banked both pairs at the 30min D ext's. waiting on next setup/swing.
New fib is pre-mature


:)

Rob123
02-11-2010, 12:54 PM
Good one Raj :)

Raj
02-11-2010, 03:44 PM
TY Sir, could have had a few more pips as the market came to the B low, but I had some things to do, and some pips are better than no pips!!!

:)

Raj
02-12-2010, 07:16 AM
chf bulls have hit their big AB target, we have a new big AB swing, along with the most current smaller AB.

:)

Raj
02-19-2010, 10:28 AM
Both pairs are at SK, so we'll see what the market gives us at these levels

:)

Raj
02-19-2010, 03:30 PM
Okay, 382 levels didnt hold, now we'll look to the 618 or 786 and trendlines to hold.


Happy pipping


:)

Raj
02-22-2010, 07:33 AM
Chf Daily chart last week reached its 162% D ext, and we have a bearish candle. After today we will be able to pull a new daily swing, so I wonder if bigger correction maybe in the works. Eur daily also closed with a bullish candle, so maybe same scenario there.

:)

pipsqueakr
02-25-2010, 08:16 PM
These pairs have been up and down like elevators... but have managed a few... if we can take out what i have as the fullfilled bear crown RT and we get a CF around the TL then we may have some more down then up movement in store.

pipsqueakr
02-26-2010, 04:20 AM
Interesting spot on my 15m we have taken the high fom the last chart. got in short when we scored the point... looking for possible 1&2 of 5m BeC... showed some fib fishing to see where the possible extension of a 5m beC could take us

do need to watch fib levels and support on current up ab subswing as having taken the high we could also just continue going north - havent even put in the pot 5m RT yet as we havent even done the 1&2

pipsqueakr
02-26-2010, 05:12 AM
think i may have had 5m LT wrong on last post... but its playing out nicely... looking for the RT

pipsqueakr
02-26-2010, 07:13 AM
Got less than a 382 bounce on the 5m... but still pretty productive for a 5m trade... now we have also done the 1 & 2 on the 15m for a continued bear move...i am once again short based on potential 15m BeC... but am keeping in mind... that 1H we did make a higher high... so we could be going up @ any time

pipsqueakr
02-26-2010, 09:54 AM
well we did say going up anytime... because we were long on the 1h... it hit the TL and boy did it go up :)

so waited for 70 speculative short as opposed to a much higher percentage> pips long from the 1h ;)

they day is coming to a close quickly... but will be watching the long term DTL for a bounce... @ that point we would've scored a point... and may be expecting some pullback

Raj
02-26-2010, 10:47 AM
nabbed 45 at the 618 res, with 30CF...and thats it for me today, on euro anyways! Enjoy the weekend.



:)

pipsqueakr
02-26-2010, 11:26 AM
I took the same trade break of 5m TL paid 50 to TB @ 618... we're still long on the 1h/4h.... stochs/rsi look good so will see what happens

Raj
03-01-2010, 11:40 AM
Nice consolidation range trading on these two pairs right now. 60min charts had CF (engulfing candles) at the supp/res for the most current trades.

:)

Raj
03-01-2010, 11:41 AM
Forgot the charts

:)

pipsqueakr
03-08-2010, 12:30 AM
Lots of interest for me @ these levels... getting close to that 3700... we have some intersting fib levels on my last down swing...

we do have that major DTL as cover and indicators are shouting OB... we are definitely due some retracement...

and for those of u that watch xau... well... we may have nice div on the 5m...

do have a CHF fundy in 45m though that could be nasty

pipsqueakr
03-08-2010, 04:28 AM
took the short @ 3700 so got a few...

Raj
03-09-2010, 05:25 AM
Nicely done Kurtmeister

:)

pipsqueakr
03-09-2010, 05:56 AM
Now looking long... i have... a TL, fib level and a pivot in this area... also in 2 mins we could have either wicks or valid tb

Raj
03-11-2010, 06:12 AM
Don't know if you guys are trading this, but a lot of fat cake to be made here.


:)

Raj
03-12-2010, 06:18 AM
We may be able to take some pips from the daily support here

:)

Raj
03-17-2010, 04:19 PM
Chf chart is at the daily TL, and 50&382 combo support fibs. The 240 chart has completed its ABCD swing...Watching to see if anything bullish appears. Smaller TF's still bearish

Euro has hit 618 res on the daily chart. Smaller tf still bullish

:)

Raj
03-18-2010, 09:43 AM
Took some entries this morning based on CF's.

Took a long on Chf at the sk support (based on last night's post - looking for bullish moves)

Took short on euro after the bear engulfing candle at the 382 res.
It's crown time

:)

liadex
03-21-2010, 10:51 PM
Raj do you think that we have a CHF bull crown on the 60 and 240?? Or are we just in a pennant in the 240?? This time of Sunday night/early Mon am GMT-- might be just slow so not a real pennant

Raj
03-22-2010, 05:31 AM
Hi Liz, yes I mentioned last week that chf 60min is in a bull crown setup...this is because of the daily uptrend line. The crown of course has not been confirmed yet. 240 chart is still bearish, and the hold up for the bulls has been the 382 fib.

I'll attatch the charts

:)

liadex
03-22-2010, 07:55 AM
Raj Thanks:) Good to have your "eyes" on it and esp nice for me when we agree-- it means my "eyes" are getting better!!

Raj
04-01-2010, 10:48 AM
On the chf chart:

It is with much regret today that I make this post. LOL

We had a beautiful gartley pattern that I was watching for some time.

The D ext of the 240 chart was converging perfectly, and I mean perfectly, to the pip, with the daily 618 support fib.

I had my order to go long at 1.0421...but the market came within 9 pips of the mark and shot up more than 100 pips within ten minutes, leaving me twiddling my fingers.

I have no more to say on this matter.

:(

pipsqueakr
04-02-2010, 05:04 AM
hey Raj,


took the eur ... we hadn't hit the Daily/4H 618 and TL as discussed.. but i thought that we had... good resistance @ that level

when i also took it down to a 1H we had some interesting TT.

It has paid.. nicely but... will probably get out for the little fundy we have this am.

I know the entry was a bit aggressive... (right after the test of the TT) & if prudent should've waited on better CF, but let me know where u think a good entry would've been.. if we didnt actually get to the ideal... the 618/TL convergence.

Have a good weekend

Raj
04-02-2010, 06:48 AM
Kurt, congrats on the pips my friend. I probably would have entered off the 240 chart after we got that bear engulfing. Somewhere along the next candles test.


I've marked off some supports on the 60 chart if you're watching your trade.


:)

pipsqueakr
04-06-2010, 08:32 AM
Thx Raj,

We now have scored a point on the 1h/4h (actually had a d ext on a 1h sub) so am looking for some retracement.

The TB on the 1h and 15 helped as well.. also had a low probability crown on the 5m which got me in ...


so fingers are crossed XAU is a problem... it seems to want to go the wrong way :) stop are already set to TP

pipsqueakr
04-06-2010, 08:48 AM
The challenge with XAU is that it and the EUR are usually corelated... i say usually because i hope this is NOT 1 of those times... the challenge is that we have just scored a point... and in the last 7 hrs... have gone from 1122.58 to 1136.90. We are due a retrace

Raj
04-06-2010, 12:50 PM
taking some retrace pips are you? LOL. 3417 and 3440 are two levels to watch for bounces.

:)

pipsqueakr
04-06-2010, 06:49 PM
TY sir... ur levels to watch for are usually golden :) appreciate the heads up

pipsqueakr
04-12-2010, 05:02 AM
Well Rajmeister... i know u warned me about the weekly TB no to mention the daily tb on EUR (& less so on the GBP but)... i was already in short. When i checked in this am... the gap had skipped my stop so I was way waaaaay down...

Can't be long and short @ the same time on my platform... so desperately hoping for a test of those TB... but realistically just would like to see decent retrace on the 4h.

Any more Raj warnings i should be considering?

Raj
04-12-2010, 01:50 PM
Kurt, yes thats quite the gap. If its any consolation, the 240 chart still has a bear swing, and ive marked off some good levels of cons there so you may be able to gain back depending on what euro does at those levels.

:)

pipsqueakr
04-12-2010, 05:53 PM
TY sir... i think we r on the same page with this 1

FxEpic
04-24-2010, 06:25 PM
Hey Raj
is that ol EUR at a SK on the 4hr now? They are a little off 11 pips or so ...hence the question. not sure if the 11 pip distance invalidates it.
Let me know when ur opening the doors that would be a good reason for a trip to Toronto lol

Raj
05-05-2010, 09:26 AM
Sorry Richie, I didn't see your post till today. Yes I'll let you know when I'm open for business!!

Today, I have banked my chf long and I'm subsequently enjoying a nice multi-lotter scalp from the daily D ext.

:)

Raj
05-17-2010, 02:14 PM
There was a nice convergence for the short on the daily chart earlier (I missed it) with the 618 res off the big downswing, and the D ext of the upmove. Daily candle looking bearish, so let's see if we get a high here although it will take two days minimum, and my latest swing is pre-mature.

:)

pipsqueakr
05-17-2010, 02:15 PM
Hey man i suspect u r busy... Appreciate the heads up.

Raj
05-20-2010, 12:40 PM
I have been short Chf all week....darn thing still going sideways...I should have also went long on euro...hopefully chf will catch up.

Euro daily swing was a 382 bounce...as usual its pulling back from the 127 support, with a crown set-up on the 60min...congrats to those who caught it.

:)

pipsqueakr
05-24-2010, 06:44 AM
Took a couple lots when we got up to 1.6

looks like its forming some TT on the 1h...

that along with the fact that i know a trader that sometimes posts to this room... said he was short from last week

:)

Raj
06-11-2010, 11:47 AM
Nice drop from the 618 on euro...hopefully we gat back into the sell zone under the trendline.

Chf still going sideways, but bouncing off the Sk support so far

:)
