Although the EUR/USD continued on it’s merry way downward from pre-London into London itself, one can’t help but look for any clues/opportunities to sneak into a counter trend spot/scalp back up on the EUR/USD at least on the short term. With NFP tomorrow morning, and quite a solid extension this week on the EUR/USD drop, a short term counter seemed feasible. In this video I discuss how we setup for a possible counter trend trade, what we looked for, and how we entered/exited the trade for a 50 pip profit/20′ish pip risk sort of move before the short continued again.

Pre-London gave us some clues, along with one trade that ended up stopped out break even on the GBP/USD pairing. We had many clues of an impending rise, at least on the short term. In this video I show in detail how we planned, and ultimately confirmed our entry reasoning/criteria, primarily using Fibonacci, 21 ema’s , macd, stochastics and higher lows. Also, why we took significant profit pretty much exactly at what ended up being the top of the move. This top turned out to be a reversal point for the remainder of the London session going into the British rate announcement due this morning. This entire move took place within the first half hour of the London open, a quick 60-70 pips when played properly, nothing wrong with that one day before NFP. Have a great weekend!

During Pre-London we some some strength in the British Pound, the Euro, and some weakness in the Japanese Yen. While there were some very nice trade plans that followed through nicely throughout the London session in with all of these currencies in this video we focus on the GBP/JPY long, that was indeed a rather difficult entry to feel fantastic about at first. We primarily use Fibonacci, and recognition of higher low’s in this setup to identify the opportunity, and visual resistance, daily …

We began today’s London session already enjoying a decent GBP/USD short trade from pre-London. However, we find ourselves at a Weekly central pivot point, and 4 hour 21 ema exactly at London open. Even if there would be further downside in the British Pound’s future, opening a major market at support is always something to be very aware of, and probabilities are that we will head up from that point, at least back to some sort of Fibonacci pullback zone. In this video I show first how we …

Our London session today and tomorrow actually are pre-London into London, as one of our coaches is on break. With that in mind, our first hour today was completely our planning/plotting hour where we set-up all area’s of support/resistance, price traps, pattern formations etc. Once this was done we developed technical bias and reasoning for several of our setups, then simply wait for one of them to cough up a clue. Well one of these trade plan’s involved the EUR/USD forming a double bottom …

Considering the Holiday week we are currently within, it should not be a surprise how we find ourselves in a relatively ‘thin’ trading market. Certainly most of the big money is sidelined right now as people spend time with their families, as they should. With this in mind it is not unwise advice to protect your profits perhaps a little more aggressively than normal, and not necessarily expect incredible trend swings during the majority of this week. Opening the London session today we found ourselves in a small identifiable price trap that wicked through the top of the trap just before the London open. After a rather violent 50 pip drop after the high price bounced hard off of the 1.4800 area. In this video I highlight how from this point we put together a trade plan with a fairly high probability of success for what resulted in a 60′ish pip trade. Not a steamroller thats fro sure, but in a thin market 50 pips here 60 pips there is what it’s all about. Happy Holidays!! FXBootcamp London Currency Coach- Christian Stephens
