Open/pending positions of last week

CHF/JPY

This pair will be analyzed briefly, for more information read the article Weekly Review Strategy Wk20 where the pair was tipped for going long. The pair found the uptrend again in week 18 after a strong pullback during the last 2 months. The pair found support around the 23,6% Fibo level measured from the low of Jan 14 at 114,079 and the high of the day after at 138,870. The pair offered a good opportunity in week 19 week and (pending) orders have been opened for this pair. The CHF is a strong currency from a longer term perspective and has a currency score of 8. The JPY is a weak currency and has a currency score of 1 for several weeks. With a Currency score difference of 7 and the CHF better classified it is an interesting pair.

• In the weekly chart the Ichimoku is meeting all the conditions.
• The MACD is in positive area and the histogram is showing increase of momentum.
• The Parabolic SAR is long and showing the preferred pattern of higher stop loss on opening of new long and short positions.
