We make up a weekly medium-term trade list based on CFTC reports and technical analysis.

Conclusions
In terms of medium-term trading, financial instruments with the correction close to completion on the Daily timeframe and with potentially the most promising risk-reward ratio are NZDUSD and EURCHF.
USDCHF, USDCAD, EURGBP, AUDJPY, EURUSD are less interesting, but in the near future they can also become noteworthy depending on the depth of the market correction.
After breaking through the triangle, USDRUB may become interesting (the market is likely to break this converging formation down due to large speculators’ active purchases of roubles).
Other financial instruments in the trade list may be also interesting, but in these markets pullback signals on the Daily timeframe are likely to occur no earlier than a week.
