Hi Traders, Andrew Mitchem here, the Forex Trading Coach.
Today is Friday, the 25th of January – it's nearly the end of the first month of the year already – Can you believe it!?
Well, it’s been a fairly quiet week in terms of the couple first few days of the week. Fairly quiet but then as we’ve developed into the week things are really starting to move again. Earlier in the week we saw renewed strength in the Japanese Yen and I said at that time to my clients, “Look just be really careful with this.”
I actually did take the trade where I was short in the Euro/Yen looking for a pull back. But I mentioned all along throughout the week up until Wednesday: Just be really careful because we are trading against the major trend which has been Japanese weakness. And so we did fairly well out with the trade. It didn't hit full profit and then there was an obvious reversal bar looking for the price in the Yen to weaken the Euro/Yen almost everything against the Yen to push back up again.
And that’s what we’re seeing now at the end of the week.
So today being Friday, I’ve gone long on the EUR/JPY, the CHF/Yen, the CAD/JPY and looking for that JPY weakness to continue. And right now with the trades behind me, when I just looked, they we’re going ready well.
So that’s great!
Euro Forex Focus
And the Euro, although its been fairly quiet throughout a lot of the week, it’s now showing a lot of strength heading into the last day of the week. And I would anticipate at this stage unless anything dramatic happens later today in the European and then US session, I would anticipate that the Euro strength continuing probably into next week.
Australian Dollar Forex Focus and Weakness
And also I’m looking for Australian Dollar weakness today. I mentioned the Australian Dollar weakness in last night’s client’s webinar. So every two weeks I hold a live trading room webinar with my clients and we were looking at opportunities to go short in the Australian Dollar. And there were few days showing and clients did take some of those.
I did take a short position on the Australian Dollar/New Zealand Dollar on the one hour chart and it worked absolutely perfectly. Just took me out this morning my time when I woke up and hit full profit so I was really pleased to get that one.
