Quit or not a position in advance?

by admin ·

One of the biggest problems that can have foreign exchange market participants is to decide whether to go ahead of time whether or not a position.

What does exit a position in advance?
Imagine that we have invested in a specific currency pair, setting a stop loss to a certain number of pips, and the profit target to another number of pips. A few hours later or the day after the position is monitored to see how our investment is doing, and if so verify that the gain is considerable. Has not yet reached the predetermined targets, but we get nervous and we close the position to keep the profits achieved so far, and avoid losses.

Forex Technical Analysis of the dollar against sterling January 24 to 28

by admin ·

Hello, we are Sunday, January 24 and I propose an analysis of the Forex-GBP USD valid for the week of January 24 to 28.

Last week we said “The daily MACD is bullish, but still necessary that parity is finally going back to 5880 1.60 and 1.62. The monthly MACD is still bearish. But up to 1.60/6050, could allow him to cross positive and therefore more strongly support a return to 1.62. This is still a guess. But let’s not forget that the monthly MACD is bullish and thus a reversal of more extensive and may be being put in place much higher in the weeks and months ahead. However, the requirement is to pass 5880, after it should go alone. “And we ended the week at 1.60.

Technical analysis of the euro-forex dollar valid for the week of January 24 to 28

by admin ·

Hello, we are on Sunday 24 and I offer an analysis of the euro-forex dollar valid for the week of January 24 to 28.

Difficult week because if the trend was clearly upward many traders have watched the sale of parity and unfortunately for them we have spent 3420 to finish the week at 3620.

As can be seen in our daily chart, the price should continue to rise and, by extension, go to 3820. Intermediate resistance should be around 3680/3720.

This week, we will pay attention to this week’s events including the Fed Wednesday, January 26 and last Friday, the U.S. GDP, these two appointments you can give us a continuation of movement up or rather a reversal of the trend … So beware.
Also, Monday and Tuesday, the parity could store between 3480 and 3680.

In relation to this cross currency for the day today we could open a new long position if its value should break 1.3635 on the upside of the share, setting for our first target for 1.3650 share and 1.3670 share our second goal.

Schaff Trend Cycle

by admin ·

The Schaff Trend Cycle identifies a surge in the trend. The STC is made by running the index difference between two exponential moving averages and using a stochastic algorithm. This oscillator measures the tendency of acceleration or deceleration, showing a measure of trend cycles.

We can apply this indicator to different currency pairs, such as the EUR / USD. The STC value tends to be more regular if the value of the stochastic is in order. The STC reaches a value of between 25 and 75 making it possible to have a better idea of when relative moment to enter and exit positions.
