On the chart above you can see that USDCHF rallied but when the rally lost steam a bearish engulfing pattern occured. This was a sign of trouble for the bulls. After a correction the market made another attempt for new highs but it failed and two spinning tops occured. This completed a 1-2-3 top and [...]
EUR/USD breaks below the previous lows 1.2700 and 1.2697. This is e very strong support level and we can expect a retracement. We place a buy order @ 1.2702 and stop loss @ 1.2688. As you can see a nice 40 pips profit could be made in the first 30 minutes.

EUR/USD goes up and we are long @ 1.2553 with protective stop @ 1.2505. Our [...]
Very interesting situation from today. After a massive rally in USDJPY the market was in an extremely overbought condition as you can see from the RSI and Stochastics readings above 70 and 80 respectively. A few candlesticks reversal patterns show that the market reached a point of indecision and a correction is in the cards. [...]
