Trade Ideas

I’ve been really, really, crazy busy with book edits these last few weeks but I did do a Q&A session on my trading about a week ago and since many of you are still getting to know more about how i trader and analyze the markets I thought this may be a great update for you.

Good Evening! I may have been a bit early on my short idea last time, but I think today’s retracement higher in EUR/JPY is giving me another opportunity to short again. Ch-ch-ch-check it!

Good morning! With the end of the trading week quickly approaching, and a nice little pop in the Greenback, I have decided to close my trade to avoid any event risk.

Good evening! My day trade managed to close with a profit as we had a wild day during the US trading session.

I am looking at some recent chart patterns that have developed and/or triggered in the USD/JPY. When the Dow wakes up — as it has this week — the dollar-yen gets moving as well. The Dow rally has helped the dollar gain on the yen and the move higher is setting up another test of the 100.00 century level.

With risk appetites growing strongly across the board, today’s daily candle closed strongly above 130.00. My focus on Eurozone weakness is being outweighed by a return to

I have been playing a dollar long position since the pullback reached the top line of the Wave (34EMA high). This decision was not random but instead was based upon the criteria of my swing trading…

Boo!!! My trade was stopped out during the Asia trading session. It was a bit frustrating as I was in profit at the open of trading this week, but the Greenback is losing ground as the

Boo Hoo! My trade was stopped out yesterday as minor resistance failed to hold. Risk tolerance grew as confidence return to traders on positive banking news. AUD/USD rose, along with

The century mark is a huge psychological level for the USD/JPY and while the deteriorating Japanese economy continues to rally the dollar-yen. With the daily chart still in a strong uptrend, it would not be best to fight the trend on this time frame.

Greetings All! Here’s a quick day trade that I took as EUR/USD rallies in a downtrend on the hourly chart. Take a look!

I am still getting better from being pretty sick over the last week and am slowly venturing back into active, intraday trading with mainly the 15 minute time frame. I prefer to use this time frame when I am not feeling well since 15 minute trades typically have a shorter lifespan.

Good morning! The US Dollar resumed its run against the British Pound during the Asia and European trading sessions and Cable hit my second profit target. My position was closed at full profit.

Good morning! Looks like the choppy markets got me today as my trade was stopped out at .6550. There was no follow through on the downside as buyers and sellers battled it out in between for

The plan to play the upside on the USD/JPY was a good one but the 30 minute chart got pretty sideways and sent to looking for another intraday time frame where I could identify the uptrending market cycle.

It looks like Eurozone weakness was not able to overcome Japanese economy weakness and the previous resistance failed to hold. I took a hit as EUR/JPY rose to

Think about this: How often to fundamentals and I’ll throw most analysts in this mix, explain what has happened only after the fact?

Good Morning! Soon after my trade idea, my short position was triggered at 92.00. And after a brief stint in positive territory, USD/JPY has made it’s way higher and has broken the falling trendline and

Thank goodness it’s Friday! Since the EUR/CHF has not gone anywhere and the end of the trading week is near, I have decided to start my weekend early by closing my trade. There is a meeting of the
