On September 24, 2017 I wrote that I was starting this journal to assess my proficiency with respect to making Forex market forecasts.
At this point however, I am relatively comfortable with the amount of validity I’ve judged to be present in the manner I now construct and interpret my charts, so I will therefore be using this thread going forward simply as a convenient place to record my thoughts without taking up any more space on my laptop, while simultaneously ensuring they are available of me anytime, anywhere, provided I have Internet access. (If I don’t have access, it doesn’t matter because I won’t be able to trade anyway.)
That said, from a monthly perspective, Tuesday through Thursday AUDUSD was, in my eyes, pushing the limits of what I call statistical support, so I was not surprised to see it form a long green daily candlestick on Friday. In fact, if the rate continues to climb at the start of next week, I will be forced to conclude that the pair has reversed its day-to-day sentiment from bearish to bullish and will therefore primarily be looking to enter long positions.
EURGBP has been range bound for a month or longer and, if this is going to continue, presently has more room below than above. (I calculate significant statistical resistance as being located somewhere in the neighborhood of 0.8821.)
From a monthly perspective EURJPY just turned slightly bullish. From a daily point of view, it’s still technically bearish, but will turn bullish immediately if it continues to climb at all at the start of next week.
EURUSD is still technically bearish from a monthly perspective, but will probably be adopting a bullish day-to-day bias if it continues to climb at the start of next week.
GBPJPY has been climbing for three days, but it is still technically bearish.
GBPUSD is in the same situation as EURUSD.
USDCAD is in the exact opposite situation as AUDUSD. The pair is crazy bullish though, so being nimble and flexible is going to be extremely important if the pair continues to fall, with any subsequent trades depending on whether the pair reverses direction to begin climbing once more, or continues sinking, pulling the trend down into a full-fledged bearish reversal.
A continued drop in USDCHF’s rate at the start of next week will probably constitute a reversal in bias from bullish (due to a wicked climb on June 14th) back to bearish (which would kind of make what happened on the 14th somewhat of a fluke).
USDJPY is day-to-day bearish and is at a decision point from a monthly perspective, with the longer-term trend remaining bullish if the rate bounces off of 109.98, or joining the bearish daily sentiment if the rate falls below this level.
