#USDJPY: Waiting For a Breakout

⚠️USDJPY is testing a solid horizontal daily resistance.
If the price breaks and closes above 134.5 - 135.5 area,
it will push the market much higher.

The next goal for buyers will be 137.6 level.

Nasdaq-100 Index (#US100) Short Trade Explained

🔻Nasdaq Index is approaching a key daily structure resistance.
The price has formed a descending triangle formation on that on 1H time frame.
Its neckline was broken, and an hourly candle closed below that, confirming a highly probable coming bearish movement.

Next support: 12000

#EURGBP: Time to Fall

EURGBP has nicely respected a wide 4H horizontal supply area.
The price formed a triple top pattern on that and broke its neckline then.

I expect a bearish move to 0.8798 / 0.8789

#GBPAUD: Important Breakout

🟢GBPAUD was stuck for some time on 1.75 - 1.763 horizontal supply area.
That structure was finally broken this week.
It turned in a demand zone now.

#CADJPY: Pullback From Key Level

CADJPY reached a solid horizontal key level yesterday.
The price formed an inverted head & shoulders pattern on that on 1H time frame.

I expect a bullish move to 100.0 / 100.25

GOLD (#XAUUSD): Update & The Thing to Watch

The market keeps coiling on a critical daily horizontal support.

Analyzing a 4H time frame, I spotted a potential inverted head & shoulders pattern.
The price has already completed the left shoulder and the head and currently, it is forming the right shoulder.

1842 - 1850 is its horizontal neckline.
The trigger to buy Gold will be its bullish breakout (4h candle close above).
A bullish continuation will be expected to 1866 / 1879 levels then.

If the price sets a new low, the pattern will become invalid though.

DOLLAR INDEX (#DXY) Bullish Continuation

Update for my yesterday's post on 🟢Dollar Index.

The market successfully broke the neckline of a triple bottom pattern on 4H.
We see a positive bullish reaction after a retest.

A bullish continuation is expected now to 104.56 / 104.95

#USDCAD: Important Breakout

🟢USDCAD suddenly bounced yesterday.
The price formed a high momentum bullish candle, breaking a solid horizontal resistance and a primary falling trend line.

I believe that bulls may push the price much higher now.
Next goal - 1.366

The price formed a double bottom on that and broke its neckline.

Goals: 84.35 / 84.8

#CADJPY: Bullish Outlook Explained

Probabilities are high that a bullish wave will initiate from that.
The goal for buyers - 101.0

Dollar Index (#DXY): Your Detailed Trading Plan

We have spotted earlier a confirmed structure breakout on Dollar Index.
The market is retesting that at the moment.

To catch a bullish move from that with a confirmation, watch a double-bottom pattern on the 4H time frame.

104.05 - 104.09 is its neckline.
Wait for its bullish breakout; we need a 4H candle close above that to confirm the violation.

A bullish continuation will be expected then to 104.55.

If the price sets a new lower low, the setup will become invalid.

USDJPY: Key Levels to Watch This Week

Here is my fresh structure analysis for ⚠️USDJPY.

Resistance 1: 134.48 - 135.475 area
Resistance 2: 137.6 - 138.6 area

Support 1: 132.6 - 132.9 area
Support 2: 129.7 - 131.05 area
Support 3: 127.2 - 128.2 area

Consider these structures for pullback, breakout trading.

EURNZD: Classic Bullish Setup

EURNZD broke and closed above a neckline of a huge ascending triangle formation on a daily.
Watch the underlined blue zone carefully. It is a contracting buy zone based on a trend line and a broken neckline.

I will expect a bullish wave from that.
Next resistance - 0.728

Gold (#XAUUSD): Your Trading Plan For Next Week

⚠️Gold reached a solid horizontal key level this week.
The price formed a doji candle on that on Thursday and then a rejection candle was formed.

We see the attempt of buyers to push.
To catch a pullback, watch a falling parallel channel and a minor horizontal supply zone.
I would suggest waiting for a bullish breakout of these 2. It will most likely trigger the initiation of a correctional movement.
Let 4h candle close above the trend line and a yellow area to confirm the breakout.

Goal will be 1866.

I will monitor this trading setup and post an update later on.

[Consistent actions lead to consistent results]

I remembered my first trading system.

It was a Bollinger Band mean reversion strategy.

You buy when the price is at the lower band and sell when it’s at the upper band.

The first few trades I did were winners, then the losses came and I figured this trading strategy doesn’t work.

So, I moved on.

Next, I chanced upon harmonic patterns.

I spent half a year learning how to draw these patterns (guess I’m a slower learner).

At the start, I had some wins but slowly, the losses kicked in and eroded all my profits.

Again, I told myself…

“This trading strategy doesn’t work. Let’s try something else.”

This brought me to the world of price action trading, support and resistance, candlestick patterns, etc.

Again, the same pattern repeated itself.

I had some winners, some losers, and I gave up the strategy.

One day, I asked myself…

“Why does this always happen?”

“Why am I not getting any consistency in my trading?”

“It’s always a few winners and then the losses pile up and take everything away.”

Do you know what I realized?

The problem was me.

I was hopping from one trading strategy to the next.

My actions were inconsistent. And because my actions were inconsistent, I got inconsistent results (duh).

So, don’t make my mistakes.

If you want consistent results from trading, you must have consistent actions.

Stick to one trading strategy, master it—and then move on.
