Rational Move
$EURUSD I was wondering what news would cause short term reversal to up trend
Looking back this week, passing the opportunity of almost 400pips
trade was certainly not a good experience, but there wasn't a valid
entry point based on my current trading rule or life style: I do not
buy/sell break b/c I have not come up with good way to measure and set
appropriate stop loss line in that case. Risk and max loss have to be
clearly defined in every single trade I make. Anyways life goes on,
and so does market.
We can say wave 1 (from 1.5063 to 1.4683) is over, and almost
completing A wave up. I would expect corrective B wave down, then
impulsive C wave up.
So my plan is to enter long at the end of B wave down. The price level
I would be entering is not very clear yet, but should be between
1.4722 and 1.4777, and I would aim this long position to carry us up
to 1.4917 ~ 1.4981. The stop loss order, of course, will be set at
1.4675, or just below the end of purple .1 wave. This makes max loss
of about 47 to 98 pips, and expected gain to be 140 to 259 pips. It's
a great risk reward ratio.
After this long trade is done, I will enter short position, possibly
from 1.4917~1.4981 level.
