June 26 – July 1 2022

BTCUSD – Nothing much happened this week with Bitcoin.

EURAUD – Price ranged

EURCHF – Price continued to fall

GBPCAD – Price melted down

GBPUSD – 150 pips downside after the triangle break

USDJPY – Price ranged

After 2 great weeks, we were expecting a little slowdown in our pip totals and that’s what happened.  179 pips potential on the four setups that were listed.  Currency charts are not in a great condition right now with quite a few messy ranges and overextended price.

BTCUSD

EURAUD

EURCHF

GBPCAD

GBPUSD

USDJPY

June 19 – June 24

AUDJPY – Breakout on the four hour chart for an entry into the pullback on the daily for 96 upside potential. Price then fell back inside the range

EURJPY – There was a strong move up but no entry on the four hour chart.

GBPNZD – Price stayed inside the triangle

GBPCAD – Four hour chart entry on the obvious reversal candlestick. 83 pip run before collapse.

Good week last week with 1023 potential pips up for grabs.  We are still in dicey territory as we are seeing interest rate hikes which, along with the economy, are the biggest drivers of the currency markets.  Adhere to your stops, don’t get greedy, and look forward to when stability returns to take advantage of big trend runs.

June 12 – June 17 2022

AUDJPY – Pullback into our zone and a strong reversal candle on the four hour chart led to a 164 pip run to the upside

EURJPY – Price blew through our first level and right into our second level. Reversal candlestick off the lows led to a 320 pip upside move

GBPJPY – Price blew through the first zone and came into the area of the down sloping trend line. Long shadow reversal candlestick on four hour entry chart gave us a buy stop entry for a 369 pip run.

EURAUD – Price stayed inside the bull flag channel. There was a potential break for about 170 pips but there was no consolidation prior.

Big week with over 1000 pips potential following the setups below.  A few good examples of using the four hour chart to enter a setup on the daily chart.  Breakouts may fail on larger time frames but as an entry on a lower time frame, it is one of the best.  You can read up on how some of the setups played out below.  Only four setups this week as some currency pairs are already moving and you need some type of consolidation to get involved.

EURAUD

June 5 – June 10 2022

AUDJPY – 188 pips upside from the level off a tight consolidation

EURAUD – Price consolidated with candlesticks with upper and lower shadows. Not a good setup

EURJPY -Consolidation breakout on the four hour chart gave us our entry for potential of 368 pips

EURUSD – Price broke to the downside but did so with an outside bar. Not an entry here

NZDUSD – Was thinking an upside break. Once we got a test of lows and no further upside, shifted to lows. Not a great entry off the lower wick on June 7 but a conservative one that led to 74 pips

GBPJPY – We broke the level with strength and switched to the four hour chart for an entry. Inside bar break (lower time frame consolidation) on the 6th led to 429 potential upside

GBPCAD – Consolidation. No trade.

Solid week with potential of 979 pips! Another good example of where simple works in trading. No need to complicate any of it. The tricky one was AUDJPY but you could read the break of the trend line as strong. This week, a few more selections but after a week of good moves, the next week is up in the air. Still not impressed with Bitcoin and the price action. The indecision of what it wants to do next makes it something I am staying away from.

      Certainly not a far fetched outcome for Bitcoin. While I don’t usually make projections, 12-17K is doable.

    Signals 16-21 January, please explain the following:
    AUDJPY on the monthly timeframe is in downtrend, making lower highs. On the weekly timeframe, it makes double top. On the daily timeframe, if you draw a trendline joining the lows of 3 December, 20 December and 10 January, it has just break the trendline. What are your criteria to look for upside?

    1. SD

      I submit that the monthly has been moving higher off the lows of March 2020 and is putting in higher highs and lows with over a 2000 pip run. I also submit that the monthly is a range at highs.

      I don’t consider monthly outside of structures…such as the consolidation.

      The weekly double top has done it’s job. I’d have been more impressed with the double top if there was an actual momentum break of highs and immediate rejection. If that had occurred, we may have seen a true down trend form. I see more the weekly forming a triangle.

      If I were a weekly chart trader, I would have shorted the recent rally due to the strong move to the downside.

      Daily. My trendlines rules don’t just connect any high or low. I have to be able to connect the last low into a high for a valid uptrend line. Your trend line, for me, is not valid.

      Because your trend line is not valid for me, this recent move was, at first, the making of a complex correction. However, once price started basing on support, that is bearish. The momentum move down on the last day of the week, confirmed the break.

      I am a swing trader. While I take the trend into consideration, I have other price action and structures I concern myself with. I know my time frame. I can easily trade a bull flag on a daily during a down trend on the weekly. It’s paid off extremely well over the years not only in FX and Crypto, but also stocks. I don’t trade futures much anymore.

      How is audjpy in a downtrend on Monthly. It is a clear uptrend having broken all kinds of previous highs.

    EURGBP longs will not be ready until the price takes out the Double Bottom it established in 2020. Once that is done, it will be a great trade for the year, all the way to 0.90

    1. SD

      I see where you are going with that. Take out the potential support, reverse, and look to trap shorts who must reverse. What you trade in time frame dependent. Most certainly as a swing trader there were clear opportunities to buy. Keep in mind the currencies are driven by different factors that have a greater effect on sustained price moves than standard technical analysis.

      1. jor

        Well, as I had pointed out eurgbp did take out that DB. But euro is still very weak bcos of the war. I will wait until the war situation cools down and then look for setups in euro to buy

        1. SD

          Yes. One look at the Euro futures and it’s easy to see how weak the Euro is.
          By the same token, the Yen futures is also weak.
          Depending on your time horizon, playing long in a EUR cross can work.
          Traders just have to ensure they have a trade manage plan or they can get eaten up.

    Is basing at highs or lows essentially a flag pattern, traded in the usual manner? Fantastic content all round, thank you for your efforts!

    1. SD

      Appreciate it Ben.

      Basing would generally mean a horizontal range but they take many forms. Patterns are rarely perfect and I find the uglier it is, the better it can trade.
      The basing can have you enter a position before breaks that will lure in other traders. Failure test of the lows of the base, a break of a previous candle high, can be entries. I also don’t look for a perfect entry location. As long as I have direction right and use smart stops, I don’t have to pick the top or bottom.

      That said, basing, flags, etc, I will generally call all of them a consolidation for simplicity sake.

    Hi. For wk 10th Oct, you mentioned that you traded inside bar set ups for CAD/JPY and CHF/JPY for very good pip gains. I’m learning so would really appreciate it if you could confirm the date and timeframe, which these occurred please.

    1. SD

      I don’t have the time to go back over old charts however any time frame entry other than the daily, will be the four hour chart. Inside bars are obvious.
      Keep in mind that all you have with an inside bar, is a lower time frame consolidation. You can play the break of the inside bar OR head to a lower time frame to see the consolidation.

    Hi SD,

    I just discovered this website. Do you typically send out alerts of when you enter these given trades?

    1. SD

      Thanks for coming by. The only time I update is on the weekend. Every trader will have their own way of triggering into the trades. As you go through the history of this section, you will read about the few triggers that are used. This was never about having a trade alert service.

  15. Mohamed

    Thank you so much i find it promising since
    It provides the signals with educational touches.
    So clever idea and productive
    Keep it up you deserve all support

  16. PGT

    Thanks for all the information you provide.

    I started trading in May this year. Am only on a demo account for the time being. I have learnt alot from Youtube etc and think that I have a gresp of the basics.

    I started off alright but now I am making the wrong decisions, and am finding it increasingly difficult to read the charts. It’s all becoming a nightmare.

    Any advice would be most welcome.

  19. OBAKENG MOKOKA

    Hi SD.. I’m Bkay, thank you so much for the information you share with us new traders, highly appreciated…I was wondering as a price action trader, what timeframes do I have to use to check for reversal candlestick patterns?

    1. SD

      Thanks for the words. All timeframes are important depending on your style. For me, daily charts, four hour charts, and a bigger picture weekly/monthly are used.

  22. Jay Singh

    @SD

    Many thanks for replying and I would just like to add that for someone who is 53 years old…..starting out all over again I wanted to say thankyou for the amount of information you have provided for the likes of me who are just starting out.

    Good luck to you and all that follow your trade setups as for me I am going to be practicing until I know, understand the tools I will be using (including charting software), and develop my edge as a PA trader.

    Best

    1. SD

      Hey Jay. You are welcome. Take your time, understand why I choose these setups and the trade triggers.

  24. Mohann

    Is there a way that the charts with recommendations can be enlarged or blown larger so that the level numbers are visible clearly. Thank you. Mohann

    1. SD

      You don’t need the exact price point. Just find the location on the chart and draw a box. You used to be able to click on the image and get the larger….but a few sites were using my images on their sites. I disabled that function.

  27. John Njoroge

    Hi SD,

    I have been following your trade set ups. To be honest, I like your approach which has taught me alot in this market. Great work

    1. SD

      Glad to read that John. What’s great about the setups I pick and the trade triggers on the lower time frames, there’s usually a trade that works (even a little) or a trade that never triggers. Really helps win loss rate which, although not the only measure of success, it’s a good starting point.

  29. Shingi

    Hi SD,
    I hope I find you well.
    I can now easily find the triggers and trade successfully.

    Now, I want to spot the setups for the coming week on my own and compare what I have with yours.
    Can you tell me what should I look for or how should I go about it.

    Your help in this regard will be much appreciated.

    1. SD

      Hey Shingi. Glad to see that finding the triggers has become easier. You probably have about 3 you can use on the lower time frame trigger chart – trend line breaks, breakouts, failed tests of lows/highs. If you go back over all he setup charts, you will start to see a theme as to why I pick the ones that I do. Much better way to “get it” as opposed to me explaining it

  31. Jonathan McGrath

    Really nice content. I’m learning a lot on how to get in to the markets at the right levels. Cheers.

  33. David

    Hi SD, do you have a social media platform where you traders signals so I that I can know exactly when to take a trade. Thanks
    And great work, you’re the best at what you do

    1. SD

      Hey David. Thanks for the words. No, I don’t use social media. Weird, I know! Your goal should be to find trade triggers that work for you. So many ways to do that – indicator, reversal candle, breakouts on lower time frames, trend line breaks……..

      1. Kazeez

        Please,I need some of the indicators that you mentioned in ur scalping trading strategy.
        (1)Fisher Indicator
        (2)supertrendTrend Indicator.
        kindly help on how to get them.Because it’s not in the indicators list on my MT4 platform.

            1. SD

              I use Tradingview for all my charts. There is a free version but since I trade stocks and futures as well, I use the pro plan and data add-ons.
