Gap Trading In Forex!!

 

Gap Trading In Forex!!

 

African proverb for the week:

Gap Trading In Forex!!

………………………………………………………………………….

1) `Red Flag News` that can make you lose your pants if you are not careful. 💡

You can use the following web site for `SCHEDULED NEWS` for the week @ http://www.dailyfx.com/calendar

Don`t take any trades just before `Red Flag News` If you are already in a trade, protect your entry. I don’t want to meet up with you at Little Beach, Maui, Hawaii. Did you know this is a nudist beach?

For reference if you don’t want to believe me, have a look at the 4th of April 2013 at all the JPY pairs what happened with price after `Red Flag News` came out. ALWAYS TRADE WITH A STOP! 

Still don’t believe me? Then you must be new to Forex Trading

Have a look at what the Swiss did to the market on the 15th of January 2015!!

You would have lost the shirt on your back, your house, your car, your personality and your virginity for a 2nd time if you didn’t have a stop in place!!! 👿

………………………………………………………………………….

2) Where is the `Forum Hang out Spot` that everyone is talking about?

On the top of this main page, go to the `Members Forum` Tab and click on it…….once in there, look for `Pierre`s Corner` and click on it………Once in there look for `Pierre`s Trading week `and click on it……..once in there, look for the Current week`s Thread Tab and click on it………..easy as pips! 😉

Or if you have the need for speed and want to trade Gold. Oil and some other instruments and want to hang out with Omar………… On the top of this main page, go to the `Members Forum` Tab and click on it…….once in there, look for the `Operation Gold Rush` Tab and click on it – there you have it, you have struck gold!! 🙂

3) This week`s Analysis:

This is my current `Earth and Sky Trading Zones` – Please take note of the time frames I am looking at. 

Sometimes I will refer to `The mother in law` in my video`s or in my write up. The mother in law represents the 200 EMA (the pink line) on that specific time frame.

If you new to the `Earth and Sky` method, please make sure you download your free e-book.

Go to the ` Education Tab` here in the main blog and look for the `Earth and Sky Trading System` where you will find helpful videos using this system and some Indi`s I use.

Remember to have a look at some of the other methods we teach here at Forex Mentor Pro too.

Did the gap close? N/A

If the gap didn’t close, pop over to the education tab – Look under Marc`s name for his “Gap Trading Strategy” and how to trade it.

Earth and Sky Trading Zone for the week:

Remember, if price don’t give us the pull back but instead make new lows/highs follow price with your fib to get the “adjusted” Earth and Sky Trading Zones for the week.

Price is above the 200 EMA
34 EMA (sky) is above the 55 EMA (earth)
Direction: Long
Potential trading zone: Between the 99.06 and 98.14 levels

Potential area to look for reaction: At the 99.49 ( 38.2 fib) and 99.06 ( 50% fib) and 98.60 ( 62.5 fib and daily 200 EMA) levels

Potential Profit take areas: At the 100.16 (WR1)  and 100.90 (WR2 and last month’s high)

Stochastic: Going into oversold

Counter Trades:

Potential Counter Trades: At the 100.90 level ( last month’s high and WR2 pivot)

Potential Profit take areas: At the 99.71 ( main weekly pivot)

Warning: Counter trades are always more riskier than trading with the main trend so change your lot size accordingly if you want to counter trade !!!

Notes:

Currently we camping out at the 38.2 fib and monthly main pivot…….so I will be looking for good solid support and confirmation to long…….if we do break to the downside next line in the sand for me will be the 200 EMA at 98.60 where I will re look to go long.

Correlation: Remember that the following pairs make out the `Euro Index Basket` – The Euro/Dollar, Euro/JPY, EURO/GBP and the EURO/CHF. (They all move in the same direction) Use the `Euro Index` for extra confirmation and information to trade the basket pairs. If you don’t have the index on your platform…..download a demo account with Forex LTD at http://www.forexltd.co.uk/
