Near term momentum is on the bullish side - From my previous post, i have suggested to look for long opportunity at the strong support level. I will be targetting approx the 0.74800 as a partial take profit, and perhaps aiming for even the 0.75-759

For this week
I would suggest to wait for price action to break and stay above 0.743 and look for continuation

AUDUSD Update - At major support - perhaps a trade idea? Last week of July 2015

AUDUSD Update - At major support - Last week of July 2015


Monthly Chart


  • This is a monthly candle with two more days to go
  • We have just hit major support
    • Look at previous price reaction at this level
    • Ascending Trendline drawn from the lows from 2000 and bounce from 2009, and possible bounce in 2015 ?

Weekly Chart



  • Just another closer look at the level we are at, (Support) - note weekly candle not closed

Outlook Trade opportunity

So what does this mean? - I have exited my shorts for the Aussie and now based on yesterday's price action on the H4, from an expected support level, I have entered long with stops at the low . Looking for at least 1:2 (Risk to reward)

- Will exit once hit my target at shy of 0.74, and will reenter accordingly if bullish bias is to continue.

Risk Level - Medium

AUDUSD - Weekly Forecast and Trade Setup for week ending 3rd of July, 2015

AUDUSD - Weekly Forecast and Trade Setup for week ending 3rd of July, 2015


Weekly Chart



  • The week ended negative, closing at the lows of the week prior. With the bearish momentum, I would not be suprised for continuation and breaking recent lows (this would be the fourth touch if so)
  • Ichimoku - Bearish

Daily Chart

  • Candles for the whole week has been closing below the kijun and tekan line, pointing to a weak aussie.
  • Friday's candle has given a hint of trend continuation to the downside
  • Ichimoku - Bearish

4 Hourly Chart


  • Very clear 4hr candle breaking the trendline and also support 
  • The yearly low / Support of 0.755 - My view will be easily broken due to earlier this year it had been tested three times, which means most buy orders had been filled - hence a very weak level.
  • Perhaps new lows in the coming week or two?

Outlook Trade opportunity

My short term trade idea from last week (of bullish), had failed. However for the longer term trade idea, this is working in favor so far.

Short term i am aiming for 0.7600 as i have opend a short trade last friday

Long term - target 0.70-0.72 (50% fib retrace of the decade)

AUDUSD - Weekly Forecast and Trade Setup - Week ending 26th of June, 2015

Monthly Chart


  • Nothing major have happened after breaking major support in January.
  • RSI - is flurting around the 30' level
  • nb - june candle not complete 
  • Ichimoku - Bearish


Weekly Chart

  • Price did retrace / retest the breakout level and pushed prices all the way to the lows
  • Tekan and Kinjun lines are starting to narrow and is possible another attempt towards the 79-80 area is possible.
  • RSI is strenghtening 
  • Ichimoku - Bearish

Daily Chart


  • Although prices are still below the clouds, prices are now trading above the Tenkan Sen (blue line), If it continues to hold / acting as support, - this would be aisngs that a potential test towards the strong resistance at the 80c is coming



4 Hourly Chart



  • From the price action and break of the triangle? and second break of the ichimoku clouds - My bias would be towards the long side.
  • I would aim for 0.78700 area as the first target.

Outlook Trade opportunity

Based on the 4hr chart, I would have a short term trade (intraweek) to the longside with target to the .78700 as first target, and if this breaks and hold, would aim for 0.795-0.80

Long term view - still bearish. so if your a long term trader, I shall wait for this retrace to finish and enter a short towards the 0.70

AUDUSD Trade Setup and Forecast for 30th March to 3rd April, 2015

AUDUSD Trade Setup and Forecast for 30th March to 3rd April, 2015

Last analysis from the 16th of March, I have indicated that there was a false break, so going on a bias to the upside. This had played in my favour, but where to from now?

Weekly Chart


  • Last week candle looks like a shooting star formation
    • however the previous candle was a relatively bullish pattern which
  • RSI is above 30
  • On the weekly, seems heavy and obvious downtrend on the bigger picture

Daily Chart

  • After RSI positive divergence, we can see that the markets is on steps higher, however now that we are trading in the clouds and did have some rejection, we may retest the lows or a fib 61.8 before attempting a shot higher?
4 Hourly Chart


  • On the 4hr chart, ichimoku trend is up
  • As long as the lows don't break, or perhaps holding at the pivot, i still see another high coming


Outlook Trade opportunity

Personally, i believe we are on a shot to test the 0.80, I am still long

$AUDUSD - Forecast and Trade setup for the week 23 - 27 February 2015


Comments from Last week Analysis:

Last week's bullish analysis for the Aussie worked out quite well, and my mid week report  for a pullback long entry at the 38.2 fib / cloud retest was a perfect entry, and currently is in profit if your still on it, or if you want to manage your risk, you can put your break even stops for a risk free look for higher.  

Weekly Chart


  • Last weeks candle closed the week at the highs of the weeks range, and also the highest close for February.
    • This was followed from the previous two weekly candle's bullish candle pattern signal.
  • Ichimoku Study - Kijen-Sen is becoming flat, which usually attracts price towards it
    • However we are still in a very bearish trend trading well below the clouds


Daily Chart



  • From the five daily candles last week, there are two bullish candles, and both of the body of the candle is much larger in comparison to the 3 bearish (small body candle)
    • I am identifying this because looking at the price action momentum moves, and from that I can see a slightly stronger bulls right now.
  • I am still waiting for a larger thrust up to create the first significant move
  • Ichimoku Study - We are trading above the Tenkan Sen and below the Kijun-Sen, so you could expect some sideway action around the 0.775-0.792
    • Still below the clouds so still in a bearish trend on the daily

Hourly Chart



  • Possible Double bottom formation - note that i said Possible, because the neckline has not been broken yet, and until the neckline is broken, then i could identify it as a double bottom.
  • Ichimoku Study - We broke Ichimoku Clouds, so now in a bullish trend on the 4hr chart
    • After breaking clouds, price retraced back towards the clouds and has rebounded strongly., which we are currently sitting at resistance, and closed the week near the resistance.
    • Break of the resistance, should see 0.79-0.80

Outlook Trade opportunity

If we get a good break of resistance and price retrace back towards the breakout level, then a good place to go long and target 0.79-0.80 for the intraweek / intraday trade

For traders who don't want to go long on this pair, then wait for price to reach the 0.79-.80 for a rejection candle pattern, and go short.

AUDUSD Forecast and Trade setup - Thursday 29th Jan, 2015

AUDUSD Forecast and Trade setup - Thursday 29th Jan, 2015

For today - perhaps going against the trend gives a good trade idea. however, a much better trade idea for medium term / swing gives a better opportunity.


Weekly Chart


  • Note weekly candle has not closed, so look at the candle prior
  • A very convincing bearish candle closing breaking support zone
  • Next support zone is around 150-200 pips away

Daily Chart





  • Targets of 0.77 is on the cards,
  • short term we should see a retrace towards the 0.815-0.82


Outlook Trade opportunity

On all time frames, Monthly, Weekly , Daily, H4 - its all bearish (ichimoku).  

Swing / Medium term trades -
I'll be looking at a opportunity to go short when prices retrace towards 0.815-0.82 , and have targets towards 0.77. ( 3:1 reward to risk)

For shorter term trades
Going against the trend today might be a good idea, as the risk in terms of pips is low, and a Potential Bullish Cypher pattern is drawn out, where currently price is flirting in the 78.6 fib level.

Risk Level - Low for swing, and high for short term idea
