GBPJPY

My trading journal for next week, I use same chart with this week at GBPJPY.
160509gbpjpyh4

160509gbpjpyd1
My trading plan:
  • SELL, when prices break black trendline and close below it at daily. I use red-line for target.
  • BUY, when prices break down-channel and stay above that at weekly. I recommend that price close above purple line for confirmation. I use blue-horizontal line for target.

GBPUSD

I like GBPUSD this week, I saw head and shoulders and price retraced at 38.2 at H4 yesterday. I've sold this pair at 15 May 2009 16.25 GMT, check my other post today.

EURUSD

Next week EURUSD can be in ranging. I see ascending triangle can be formed. 160509eurusdd1

160509eurusdh4
Trading plan:
  • SELL, price had closed below channel at H4. I think price will go south next week
  • BUY, if price close above resistance line, I consider to buy at this pair.
  • Until this pattern (ascending triangle) breaks out, just buy when price touch support line and sell when touch resistance line. I use candlestick pattern at H4 as confirmation.

USDJPY

I see reversal pattern (head and shoulders) this week for this pair and prices had closed below trendline. I think USDJPY will be in bearish next week. 160509usdjpyd1
Trading plan:
I just think to sell USDJPY next week. If next week prices still close below trendline, I'll consider to sell it.

Trading Strategy

GBPJPY

My trading journal this week is not different with my review last week.
But I have modified down-channel at daily chart to get better channel.
From charts below, I see that trend is still downtrend and then I am still waiting for confirmation @ H4 to set up short entry. If direction is changed, I have buy setup above purple line.
120509w1 120509d1 120509h4
Trading Plan :
  • Sell when prices close below blue-trend line @ H4.
  • Buy, if direction is changed and prices go to north, buy when prices close above purple-line @ daily.
  • Set stoploss as I can find support or resistance area @ H4 and set my target @ lime-line (167.29) for buying and set @ red-line (128.16) for selling.
