B&B Buy signal

Hi Sive

Thanks for your reply. Following your way of explanation of this B&B buy signal with potentially forming ‘W’ shape in the retracement move upside, can we assume that the first part of this ‘W’ shaped wave could be considered as ABC(top) pattern and then, entering the market on some suitable poolback from the top.

If this could be the case, what would be that ENTRY level, as well as - the corresponding EXIT level (maybe in terms of Fiv Expansion)?

Thanks!

EUR/USD Daily Update, Tue 15, February 2011

Good day,
Although we've expected some bouncing from 1.3520 - that has not happened and market has accelerated to the downside and reached:
1. Daily K-area at 1.3475-1.3479
2. Weekly pivot support +monthly pivot at 1.3438
3. Gartley AB=CD target at 1.3420 area.
At the same time, daily trend is strongly bearish.

So, if you are day trader - you have no context for enter long. Also you should not enter short also - because market stands at strong support and just has reached AB-CD target, it's ready for pullback.
I suggest you wait for pullback to enter short, and here is a couple of comments:
There are two areas that could appear to be suitable for open shorts - 1.36 (Daily K-resistance +weekly pivot) and 1.3690 (weekly pivot resistance 1+5/8Fib resistance) - watch intraday charts for Sell signals around them.

If you're intraday trader - you may use current situation for scalp Buy trades, but this should be just fast trade - not "Buy&Hold". The profit objectives are the same 1.36 or 1.3690, depending on how market will behave around them.

And common note - if market will take high at 1.3720 and hold above it - then bears' dominating will be under question. If bears are still strong - this should not happened.

EUR/USD Daily Update, Wed 16, February 2011

Good morning,
today we will start directly from intraday charts.

On hourly chart trend is bullish, and will remain bullish till 1.35-1.3510 area roughly. Now there are two patterns is forming - Butterfly and AB-CD, with targets around 1.3590-1.3600. So, what do we have around this area:
1. 1.272 target of Butterfly "Sell"
2. Target of AB-CD
3.Weekly pivot point at 1.3588
4. Daily K-resistance 1.3580-1.3619.

So, if you're day trader - wait for reaching of this area, drop your time frame and look for "Sell" signals.

If your are intraday trader - take a look at 15-min chart.
You can anticipate of reaching 1.36 (this is the target of this trade), entering Long with s/l below 1.3495. You may enter partially at first K-support and Agreement at 1.3516 and again at next support 1.3500-1.3508. Risk/reward ratio is nice. One thing that you do not want to see - shifting hourly trend to bearish, and this could only happen, if market will break 1.3490-1.350 area, that's why, we place stop right there -below 1.3495.
