Although the EUR/USD continued on it’s merry way downward from pre-London into London itself, one can’t help but look for any clues/opportunities to sneak into a counter trend spot/scalp back up on the EUR/USD at least on the short term. With NFP tomorrow morning, and quite a solid extension this week on the EUR/USD drop, a short term counter seemed feasible. In this video I discuss how we setup for a possible counter trend trade, what we looked for, and how we entered/exited the trade for a 50 pip profit/20′ish pip risk sort of move before the short continued again.

Pre-London completed some of our earlier trades going on and finally hit some support targets we had been after on several pairings. So here we were in familiar territory, London open at support/reversal pivot points, pretty much know what happens there, countertrend scalping back to resistance. So in this video I show one of these trades, the EUR/JPY, and how we set it up, why we did, and where the executions here. Ultimately an unexpected news release just before London lunch finished our move to it’s finally target before fully coming back down to the support zone again. Hey whatever it takes =) Have a great weekend! FXBootcamp London Currency Coach- Christian Stephens
Hi Everyone Todays video takes a look at the Pound and where my last video went wrong and why you should not have traded it. We then stick with the Pound and look at what the rest of the week should bring. We then finish the video off by looking at the USD/CAD. This pair can make some nice pips, set and forget type stuff. I think we are positioned to rise several hundred pips before looking to break the 1.0000 level again. Have a great weekend everyone. Thanks Rob Helean
Asia’s activity today left us with a little cloudy picture on several pairs coming into London. We definitely had clear direction on many pairs but found ourselves near interim support/resistance on the same pairs as London was opening, so what we needed were some pullbacks. One such pairing was the GBP/USD today, which found itself pulling back to a near perfect Fibonacci zone which overlapped multiple types of dynamic ema resistance exactly as London opened. While this entry was ideal, should one have missed this entry (which sadly I did due to my alarm being 2 pips further), how could we try and still enter this trade conservatively and not feel like we were price chasing. Well in this video I show you how I walked the FXBootcamp room through that very process. Ultimately it offered us two opportunities to join this move, one ended up break even while the other ended up a 50-60 pip traded depending how you decided to take profit, near or at the Weekly Central Pivot point. Regardless of your bias on a pairing you still must be able to build a trade plan with acceptable risk parameters or you simply should not take the trade. This video shows how we finally were able to make the risk/reward make sense to join this in the middle of it’s move. FXBootcamp London Currency Coach- Christian Stephens

The USD has been quite the bull lately and we have not yet seen any reason technically for that to cease. With the situation in Greece very tense, the Euro has shown even further weakness. With this Euro weakness and USD strength we again were looking to the EUR/USD for some further clues of continuation down. In this video I highlight how we built a trade plan starting at today’s London Session around a 40′ish pip hourly price trap, break, and then retest. Once the break occurs it was time for our favorite friend Mr. Fibonacci to step in, and sure enough he coughed up several opportunities to snag a nice EUR/USD short entry to start the day. While it took all night to really follow through, it completed its drop today of 120 pips or so from the Fib in dramatic fashion with China raising it’s reserve requirements unexpectedly, causing a strong push to the 1.3550 area which also happened to be our daily M1 reversal pivot point, Profit take time! Lovely trade. Have a fantastic weekend folks! fxbootcamp London Currency Coach- Christian Stephens
Non farm payrolls “high volitility event driven continuation breakout strategy” employed during a live webinar at fxstreet.com with close to 1000 registered traders. Headline numbers were “less good” and created a bullish opportunity on the EUR/USD, as the EUR/GBP was also bullish after the news. We used price action, resistance and then a fibonacci pull back for possible entry. An S1 low pivot offered a R1 profit target. www.fxbotcamp.com Live FOREX Training EVERYDAY!
