The Hourly chart above is currently forming a tradable pattern. Price seems to have topped temporarily @ 1.6543. Hence, we expect price to retrace to the area between 1.6471 and 1.6399 (which is the area between the 50% and 100% fib. retracement levels – drawn from the most recent Hourly swing low to the current price-top). Let’s seek to buy around this area. If price breaks the 1.6399 level downward, our bullish bias is no more valid and we enter a no-trading zone. Our primary profit target is @ 1.6582 (the 127% fib. ext.).Also, if price breaks above 1.6543 (current price-top) before retracing to the buy-area, we’ll have to redraw our Fibonacci tools using a new top & the most recent Hourly swing low to determine new potential areas to buy.
The 15min. chart above gives us a clearer view of the Hourly price action and the potential areas to buy (please note it’s advisable to set a Limit order ahead of time as price could move down to these levels and reverse sharply in our favor)This chart is rather cluttered but if we look closely, there is a particular potential reversal level available:
fib 78.6% ret. @ 1.6430.
Personally, I consider this 78.6% level a potentially strong reversal level based on the broken most-recent Hourly swing high @ 1.6435.
Initial Stop Loss @ 1.6397; primary Profit target @ 1.6580 (Please remember to factor in your broker’s pip-spread).
Please note that this Fibonacci (fib.) level also has a Weekly pivot, an overlapping fib supporting it.
Please keep your risk low. Don’t risk more than 2% of your capital. Personally, I risk about 0.5% per trade; and each trade has a potential profit target of 1% or more – based on my exit levels.
We MUST NEVER assume we KNOW where price is going next!
P.S.:
Always keep in mind any major news releases. Be wary of possible price volatility during these periods.
