| September 4, 2010 | Posted by admin under Day Trading Ideas, Forex Technicals, Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
The EUR/USD is pushing at resistance between 1.2900-1.2930 – this level was tested multiple times intra-day between early and mid-August. During the mid-August push higher the highest close remained below 1.2850 therefore this weeks close at 1.2894 indicates buying pressure in this region.

EUR/USD Resistance at 1.3100 holds
| May 11, 2010 | Posted by admin under Day Trading Ideas, Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
What a time to take a few days off! Noteworthy action in the EUR/USD as it tested 1.3100 but could not penetrate it on the pullback. The pair once again trades lower at 1.2775 on a wide ranging day. A rise above 1.3100 would indicate some strength and forewarn of a further pullback, but the downtrend is…

The Euro saw another very weak day against the USD as the primary target at 1.2800 was penetrated, putting in a low of 1.2788 so far. Trend remains down on all time frames with further targets at 1.2700, 1.2650 and 1.2550 and 1.2500. The aggressiveness of these targets simply account for increase volatility over the last two days. There…
EUR/USD: Mother of False Breakouts (at least right now)
| April 25, 2010 | Posted by admin under Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
I used to include a caption below my name when I wrote an analysis, that caption was: “Remember, False Breakouts are Tradable Too!” It was meant to be a reminder that just because a trade looks like it may not be working out, does not mean there isn’t money potential there. In fact, false breakouts…

There are several methods for trading a breakout, but I have a favourite. I bring this up only because it is the exact strategy that I have discussed using for the EUR/USD when it broke out – which it did on Wednesday, March 24. If you have read my daily analysis, I talk about waiting…

| March 17, 2010 | Posted by admin under Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
The following is your daily EUR/USD outlook for March 18, 2010. The pair finally did break above 1.3800 Wednesday, did a quick stop clear to just below 1.3820 and then retreated, currently trading at 1.3735. As I pointed out yesterday the break of 1.3800 was almost inevitable, and the bias remains to the upside. Targets…

The following is your EUR/USD outlook for March 17. Even on a Fed day the pair could not get above 1.3800 on Tuesday. That said, it does appear that it will happen. Since early march the EUR/USD has continually put in higher and higher swing lows. 1.3800 does need to be moved through, but barring…
EUR/USD Outlook for Feb 24
| February 23, 2010 | Posted by admin under Day Trading Ideas, Stock Market Analysis, Swing Trading Ideas |
A Return to Volatility… Tuesday saw a turn of volatility relative to the quietness of Monday. The break above 1.3660 was short lived, and collapsed back through the former resistance level, erasing the possibility that a minor uptrend (within the larger downtrend) was emerging. If we zero in the last two weeks, we see a…

The EUR/USD could not not get above 1.3800 after making attempts earlier this week. There is a resistance band running above 1.3800 and it was said in previous posts that not being able to climb above that point is bearish for the EUR.
