Trade Ideas

Last week there was a move in comm-dolls that suggested that there may be strength as Japanese yen flooded the market looking for yield. Of course that all comes tumbling down – for now – but could that play reemerge?

Good morning forex friends! There wasn’t much of a break last week for USD/CHF as the pair hung around the .9300 area, despite more weak data from the US. With the start of a new week, and some really bad Chinese GDP data to kick it off, I closed my trade and moved on.

It’s Monday and y’all know what that means! A fresh dose of my Weekly Watch!

I hope you all had a good weekend like I did at the first weekend of Coachella. Now it’s time to go back to trading. Here’s my take on the forex market for this coming week.

Drats! AUD/JPY shot up before it tested the 38.2% Fib and eventually hit my profit target! I had to cancel my orders! What rotten luck!

There are three ways that a pair can land on your radar and not so coincidentally, there are three ways that you need to analyze/understand a pair too!

For this week’s featured trade we’ll take a look at youngtader07’s 160-pip win on EUR/NZD. Is that awesome or what?

I spy with my pretty little eye a potential Fibonacci play on USD/CHF. Let me tell you all about my trade idea for this week!

The HLHB had better luck on EUR/USD in last week’s trading as the pair trended. It scored a lot of small wins and only had one loss. Unfortunately, it did not perform positively in GBP/USD.

Good afternoon forex friends! My, oh my how time flies as we head into April, which means Q1 2013 is now in the books. As always, it’s that time again where I take a moment to look back at how I did from January through March.

Once again, Draghi threw in a few comments that surprised market players, and when coupled with massive moves thanks to the BOJ, it was quite an active few sessions for currencies. Here’s a review of how I played EUR/USD through it all last week.

Last week was a very crazy one, to say the least. But I’m ready to tackle the forex market head on! Lemme tell you all about my game plan for this week.

I’m hoping to catch another big move on the crosses this week with the help of my Weekly Watch. Check out my charts on EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY, and EUR/GBP to see the levels I’ll be watching!

It’s time to crunch the numbers on my trading performance for the first quarter of the year. How is my account looking?

Boy, how time flies! Just like that, another quarter is behind us! But before we begin with a new slate, I think it’s best to look back on the past three months and assess our trading performance.

I kept my pinky promise! I shorted USD/JPY ahead of the BOJ rate decision and watched the pair carefully. Thank goodness I made the decision to move my stop to breakeven just in time!

Mixed week for the HLHB Trend Catcher! While my system finished with a gain on GBP/USD, it took a hit on EUR/USD. Find out all about it in my latest update!

Winner, winner, bunny ears for dinner! Thanks to Mr. Kuroda’s first monetary policy statement, yen pairs zoomed up the charts, allowing me to make some mad pips on my EUR/JPY position!

After an abysmal Q3 and Q4 in 2012, I have managed to finally post a respectable winning quarter. How did I do it? Find out after the jump!

Oh dear, not another heartbreak! NZD/USD was a hairline away from hitting my profit target at .8450 before it changed course and sold off. Good thing I was able to cut my losses!
