US/CAD and Murrey

More and More I find adding the T.H.Murrey math divisions along with fibo's are making sense, have a look at this 4H chart:

Just split the difference between fibo lines (marked in orange) and you will see candles stopping or starting to move off those divisions.
At present, I don't have a trade set-up for this pair as I'm seeing several pairs (kiwi post & Murrey explained in an Interview last summer) just out of reach at the moment, so I wait.
I'll be watching to see if the candles move higher to the intermediate (blue) moving average before I even think about getting in with a possible short.
The 50 sma is still sloping down, STOCH still up and MACD still climbing (as of close Friday)
No Sir....I'm not in a rush, I'll wait...ready to pounce

For now

http://ibankcoin.com/testicules/2011/12/01/trading-nfp-fx-if-you-really-must/

I'll work on joining these 2 blogs soon, looking over the US/CAD and will post my view over the weekend

check out the other blog too

http://ibankcoin.com/testicules/

Trying to stream-line the process and get both these blogs updated at least once per evening for over-night trades. NFP week is usually a short week for me but so far the trades keep lining up. I think this last Long US/JPY will be my last until next week.
Who knows...every time I think I'm out...I get pulled back in

The Longer Time Frame

Pulling up monthly and weekly charts, putting things in perspective. I don't trade from these times but I do use them for reference when bombarded with daily/ minute by minute doom and gloom reports.

First up is AUD/USD :
 On a weekly chart we can see a  past triple top that should give us support around .9370* and would also create a double bottom.
RSI, MACD signal lines and STOCH'S seem to support this target as well.

US/CAD:

Again looking at a weekly chart, it seems to be heading toward 1.0670* area for ...5x...at least
Looking at the indicators: RSI, STOCH, MACD still climbing with the 50 sma flatish...hooking upwards ever so slightly...keeping an eye on that



EUR/US:

Monthly chart...we are about half way into this descending channel...NO it's no guarantee it will follow the path down but once we break that center line...the odds get better.
Like I stated earlier, few of us trade from a long time frame, it's just something I keep an eye on.



at present I am long  US/JPY and will add smaller positions if it drops...REASON: INTERVENTION

I am also taking longs off the 50 sma with the US/CAD...30m and 1H charts

The watch list

Only 2 I'm really watching at the moment for possible short.
EUR/JPY any pops to 104.30 range and I'll be looking to short (trade as I see fit when moment comes).
So far momentum is fading, looks like a drop may happen


Also, keeping an eye on EUR/CAD
Weekly trend line around 1.41, if price reaches 1.4070's+ then I'll be looking to short. At this point I'm not getting a strong signal that momentum is fading...slowed but not dropping...so far.


*hanging on to a US/CAD long as 50sma still rising and price keeps bouncing off the line...will it break previous tops upwards? (*1.0410)...we wait

An Indicator set-up

First off: I AM NOT PART OF THE "WINNERS EDGE" Team.

I saw this posted by Casey Stubbs and read the comments..added one myself but the point is those of us that use MT4 could not achieve the same set-up with standard MT4 accessories.

UNTIL NOW: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=92412

ACTUALLY THERE ARE MORE THAN A FEW OUT THERE, sometimes you just have to search harder.




3 ema (low) crosses above 25 & 30 ema (low) -BUY
3 ema crosses below -SELL

RSI (3 LOW)  over-bought/over-sold rules apply.
When RSI (dotted) crosses MACD signal lines, close trade

WORKS BETTER WHEN FOLLOWING TREND DIRECTION (25/30)

Just thought I would post this if you are relying on indicators or looking for something different to try out. (may not apply to all pairs...looked better on some than others)
