Trade Advice

by Francois Bidwai (Ichimoku Specialist)

Euro/Dollar: The currency pair brock through broad clouds of Ichimoku and took a course to our next target at $1.5400. This morning it may try to stabilize the price above 61% Fibonacci correction level at $1.5485, but please note that momentum is ready to roll to bear side. If not today, then early next week we expect a breakthrough below.

Strategy. Set sell positions at 1.5500, reinforce positions till 1.5550, stop above 1.5655. Short-term target at 1.5400 and then at 1.5350.

Dollar/Yen. During yesterday's third-time test a new maximum has been recorded at 105.88 level. This morning we wait for signs of forming peak, then slowly return to 104.50 (if not at the end of the day, then early next week).

Strategy. Open short positions in the area of 105.30/105.50, stop above 105.95. Short-term target at 104.50, the next at 103.50.

Pound/Dollar. Many people watched, how Pound/Dollar was traded within a narrow range, while the Euro fell. Yesterday's short-term minimum indicated that the pair might be able to hold above 1.9700. Price movements of this week seem preparation for a serious upward movement this summer.

Strategy. Open small long positions at 1.9765, stop below 1.9670. Short-term target at 1.9850/1.9880, then at the figure of 2.0000.
