Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi - "The pound has rebounded modestly over the past week with GBP/USD rising from an intra-day low of 1.4832, and EUR/GBP declining from an intra-day high of 0.8794 both recorded on the 12th March. The pound’s recent rebound follows heavy selling during early 2013 which has resulted in the BoE’s nominal trade-weighted pound index declining by just over 5.0% reaching its lowest level since the middle of 2011.

The pound has found support in the near-term from both a…

EURUSD bounced sharply from 1.3000 psychological level at the start of January which was most-likely low of a red wave 2). Notice that bounce from 1.3 is very strong which typical represents third wave of a five wave Elliott Wave model. As such, we suspect that pair is at the start of a red wave 3) within an impulsive wave (C) that may reach even 1.4000 target in 2013. With that said we will continue to look higher as long as market trades above rising channel line from November lows and…

Often times, we measure our success as a trader by our account value, whether it has grown, perhaps doubled in size, or whether we have lost and are under water.  Unfortunately, this is really a myopic way of measuring our success in trading.  If this was the true benchmark, then for my first 6 mos of trading, I must have been a rock star turning 3k into 83k.  How did I do it? Over-leveraging to the hilt and having the most unbridled approach to the markets.  If you measured success by my…

While we have all be shorting the Eur/Usd for weeks, this week we expected a return to some Fibonacci pullback zones to begin, the first of which being back to the Daily 5ema (also 38.2 fib pullback of the last 4hour swing). In this video I layout what we were waiting for just after the London market open as our first clue to take the scalp long, along with how we determined target, stop/risk, and ultimately what caused the trigger to be pulled. This was only intended to be a scalp long with…

In 2009, Gary Kasparov, one of the world's greatest chess players of all time (now retired from competitive chess), played what is a called a simul game exhibition. In this exhibition, he played 25 simultaneous games against some of the top local talent all that the same time. The opposing players had as much time as they wanted to think about their moves while Gary had only about 5 seconds (max 30) per table to make his move.  Below are the results of this…

We have been getting a lot of questions from newer traders to price action on what is price action and how can one do price action trading.  What we are going to cover is the traditional definition of price action, how we approach it differently than others, and how can one trade price action in the forex market.

But first, we are going to start with a question;

After ranging for what seemed an eternity this week on the extremely weak Eur/Usd, Aud/Usd and others, we finally started showing some signs today, beginning in Asia of a breakout pullback of the overall drop about to ensue. In this video I show 100% how we set-up, and executed this live trade in the London session real-time, for a relatively painless 50+ pips depending on entry.  We also had an even better reload after this entry I on the eur/usd & aud/usd that once I was done this…
