Weekly Price Action Trade Ideas – 8th Jan 2019

Weekly Price Action Trade Ideas – 8th Jan 2019

Markets Discussed Today: AUDUSD, EURUSD, GOLD & BITCOIN

 

EURUSD Daily Chart

Price Stuck In Box Looking For Break

Price action on the EURUSD daily chart is stuck inside a tight ranging box with a clear high and low.

As the daily chart shows below; price is now looking to test the major high of this range and box with a potential break higher.

Trading inside these super tight box situations is incredibly difficult and can be very tricky as price has a tendency to whipsaw and make small erratic moves.

Once price breaks either higher or lower, it will then often open up a wide range of trading opportunities that can be a lot more fast paced including breakouts and looking for breakout and quick retrace trades.

AUDUSD Daily Chart

Huge False Break & Now Test

On many of the Asian markets that carry the AUD, JPY currency we have seen huge false breaks. These moves were looking like creating huge breaks only to snap right back.

The AUDUSD and AUDNZD are good examples of these moves with both charts below.

We can see on the AUDUSD price has now snapped back higher and is looking to re-test the important price flip level we have discussed in previous summaries.

The same can be seen on the AUDNZD 4 hour chart with an incredibly important few sessions coming up at the major resistance level.

BITCOIN Daily Chart

Stuck Between Two Levels

Price action in the Bitcoin market is stuck between the Very Big Round Number = VBRN and key daily resistance.

Price just at the moment is hovering around the support and resistance of 4000.

Price is in a sideways and consolidation pattern after a huge breakout and move lower after price broke the VBRN 6000. A price action consolidation will often occur after a large and aggressive move because no market can go straight higher or lower.

Bearish traders can look to find A+ trade setups if price fires off bearish signals at the major daily resistance level.

GOLD Daily Chart

Up-trend in Place

After discussing the Gold market in our last few summaries, the market reversal and short-term trend has taken shape.

In the summary we posted 18th December we discussed how price action formed a base and reversal in this market and was looking to move higher.

Price has now formed a Bearish Engulfing Bar = BEEB after a large run higher with a small pull-back.

If price does breakout and continue higher, price could move into the next box highs around the 1306 area. If price pulls back from the BEEB, bullish traders could look for A+ trades with the move higher around the major daily support level.
