Trade Video from the AUD setups below...

I have booked some on the position trade and scalped some of it! wow happy with whats happend already

targets are 8775 and stops still on highs 9050+ for position

http://www.youtube.com/user/scilliams#p/a/u/0/GLeuAUjGHyM

Enjoy the video :)

AUD/USD Continued

Ok i have taken my positions as indicated from twitter average is 9015

I dont know how much more analysis i could do on this pair but i guess now its time to step back and see if she works!!

This analysis here should go in conjunction with the charts below as the ones below are the TARGETS and this is the ENTRY and why

Now we hold and prey cauz we are loaded!!

HEAD AND SHOULDERS 1 hourly

WHY WE ENTERED AND WHAT WE LOOKING FOR... (see charts on previous post also)

Photobucket

AUD RANGE AND PROJECTIONS!!

These are the charts i have for AUD. We had turns on the index near the tops and that has played now we would look for a 50% rise and fail (lower swing top) to confirm the move and add into this position.

AUD has failed at this point and looks to be heading down. This now needs to get through the 50% of the rise up fib which has not been included on the chart but it does look good to complete to 75% or 100% of the range.

Photobucket

This target area coincides with the monthly range projections and would certainly present a good take profit area for those who have got the shorts from either the highs on the turn or from the lower swing confirmation.

Photobucket

Lets see if this all plays out but risk to reward now on the added position is minimal with stops moved to the lower swing top highs.

CABLE TREND CHANGE??

This is my analysis for a cable short position trade.

dont know if i like the thumbnails so thought id try this one with full size images see how it goes...

I see repeating range happening here....

Photobucket

Also then i see it rejecting from the 61.8% fib of the main drop. It broke previous highs so i would think this would be a trend change to longside is the main concern so this is more a short position trade scalp thing to take it long from around 1.55 or 1.53 area...

Photobucket

And this is where and how i get into it and what i will be watching for...

Photobucket

Anyway it could be risky but if i can catch trend change for couple 100 pips im laughing ;)

Keep it tight boys and girl :)

BHP

This is my BHP Gann resistance levels...

As for the time one... One could argue that today was a turn date and look where it is at the price levels... Certainly going to be interesting and ill watch closely but rob is the master of BHP and as always with BHP... i was early!

CTX

Update on CTX,

I have turn date today, I actually wanted it to open around 10.80 level and for price to fall through the open. This could be a wave 4 of a 5 wave down however i have a few differnt thoughts but i have not got charts on the web to share so you will just have to deal with this one and make your own conclusions and trade plans.

Update

Hey Guys,

Have not done to much this week as yet, Stocks look toppy but i will wait for turn before jumping into to much. Just day trades here as per Twitter and looking at the currencies a fair bit.

One that has been going so well is GBP/USD. Such a strong move up and its getting silly now i really cant see how it can keep going. It's now at the 61.8% fib of the drop and what i would call some resistance and a sell zone. Maybe on a lower top you could try catch a trend change. I am looking for it to get back down to one of the fibs of the move up and then take it long again...

If you look back you will see my old GBP/USD chart. Never really got that pull back but looks like its worked perfectly!!

Anyway Enjoy :)
