Yesterday’s Report

It took a while to play out but the mixed nature of yesterday’s market manifested in a buying surge followed by the expected sell off to Daily/Weekly Pivot & beyond. An early opportunity to enter Short was ignored. We were patient and awaited a second Secret Surfing The Pips Candle Pattern at our Hotspot. That signal provided us a Free Trade, leading into a news announcement. The Long entry went to target just prior to the announcement but those wishing to take advantage of a potential “boost” provided by appropriate news, gained further pips. The selloff was in immediate response to the News surge & untradeable. Our Swing & Relax Strategy was in action Long on GBP/JPY, earlier in the day. That produced a TP1 but news intervened (this time adversely) and a Break Even trade was the result.

Technical Analysis

The Inverted Head & Shoulders http://clip2net.com/s/56IBuywe spotted yesterday has now been violated so the expectation is for further downside. Yesterday’s High has kept Daily Pivot (DP) above Weekly, maintaining a “Pivotal Mixup” however. DP sitting above PA untested would suggest pullback will occur prior to further falls.
