EURGBP broke the range

Wednesday, November 9th, 2011

Last Monday I wrote about the EURGBP, it was trading near an important level on the long term charts, and as always, when I talk about LT levels, I’m actually talking about zones. The zone for the EURGBP was between 0.8560 and 0.8368. So in order to start looking for trade opportunities, the market needed to break either side of the range, and of course, I’ll only look for opportunities in the direction of the breakout.

Guess what? The EURGBP already broke through the lower extreme of the range:

So you know what the plan is here right?

I’ll only look for short opportunities. The next LT support level is at 0.8362

Trade Safe!

EURGBP, in a well defined ST range

Monday, November 7th, 2011

Hope you all had a great weekend! I did have a nice and relaxing one, ready to take advantage of all market moves, I have a feeling this week its going to have clearer and smoother moves… we’ll see.

Anyway, one of the currency crosses that I’ll be monitoring this week is the EURGBP. It is trading near an important LT level, but when you take a look at the short term charts, it is trading in a very well defined range, so if I have a chance, I’m going to trade this short term range:

But what if the EURGBP breaks the range? Because it is not going to trade forever in between these two levels, right? Here is the plan:

Once it breaks the top of the range (0.8638) I’ll be looking for long opportunities.

If it breaks the bottom of the range (0.8561) I’ll be looking for short opportunities.

Trade Safe!

EURGBP – Clear bearish condition

Wednesday, June 15th, 2011

The EURGBP was rejected from an important LT resistance level around 0.8915, and it is likely to continue its way down until it reaches the next LT support level around 0.8651. It is currently trading at 0.8793 so we still have some room left to get a good risk reward ratio:

I’d like to see a retracement to the top of the range, if I see significant downward pressure around that level, I’ll go short.

I’ll stop looking for short opportunities if the EURGBP breaks 0.8837 for the upside.

The EURGBP is trading near a LT level in a short term range, as you already know, LT levels are zones instead of “levels”, that zone can easily be determined in the short term charts, in this case, the zone is from 0.8570 to 0.8633:

EURGBP – Short term range

Monday, February 21st, 2011

The EURGBP is trading in a short term range 0.8441 – 0.8357 around a LT important level. Since the range is well defined (clear S&R levels) we are allowed to trade it, the strategy is simple: once the market gets to the top, look for short opportunities and once it reaches the bottom of the range, look for long opportunities (price action patterns):

Take in consideration that if the EURGBP breaks the range, it will trigger a trading condition in the direction of the breakout, and only trade opportunities in that direction will be valid.

EURGBP – At an important level

Thursday, January 27th, 2011

The EURGBP has been trading smoothly between LT support and resistance levels. I like it when it behaves like that, it goes from one important level to the other giving us opportunities to trade and increase our position size when it moves in our favor.

Right now it is trading at an important level and I’m waiting for a breakout before looking for any opportunity:

I’ll look for opportunities in the direction of the eventual breakout.

Thursday, December 30th, 2010

The EURGBP is trading in a very strong bullish market condition. What is interesting about this cross is that the next LT resistance level is around 0.8919, and it is currently trading at 0.8611, you know that 300 pips in the EURGBP are a lot of pips, most of the time the SL used in this cross are pretty tight:

As long as the EURGBP trades above 0.8588 I will be looking for long opportunities.
