FX Review FxTaTrader Weekly Strategy Week 27 / Sunday 28-June-2015

In this article I will provide my view on the CHF/JPY, GBP/AUD, NZD/CHF and the USD/JPY. These are the pairs that I am currently interested in or was interested in last week for trading with the FxTaTrader weekly strategy. I will pick one to analyse in more detail from the pairs that have not been discussed yet recently.

Open/pending positions of last week

CHF/JPY

This pair will be analyzed briefly, for more information read the article Weekly Review Strategy Wk25 where the pair was tipped for going long. Last week the pair made a double top on monday after the previous top of June 9. Also the 4 Hour chart started to show weakness. Because of this the position was closed and a profit of 189 pips was made. The pullback seems of a temporary nature and the uptrend is still valid. However, as a precaution the open position has been closed.

From a longer term view the pair found the uptrend again in week 18 after a strong pullback in March and April. The pair found support around the 23,6% Fibo level measured from the low of Jan 14 at 114,079 and the high of the day after at 138,870. The pair offered a good opportunity in week 19 week and (pending) orders have been opened for this pair and closed last week. The CHF is a strong currency from a longer term perspective and has this week a currency score of 6. The JPY is a weak currency and has a currency score of 3 this week. With a Currency score difference of 3 and the CHF better classified it is an interesting pair.

• On the weekly(decision) chart the indicators are looking strong for going long.
• In the weekly chart the Ichimoku is meeting all the conditions.
• The MACD is in positive area but the histogram is getting a bit weaker..
• The Parabolic SAR is long and showing the preferred pattern of higher stop loss on opening of new long and short positions.

This pair will be analyzed briefly, for more information read the article Weekly Review Strategy Wk21 where the pair was tipped for going long. Three weeks ago the pair succeeded to break through the highs of last February and to close above it in the Weekly chart.

From a longer term perspective the pair found the uptrend again in week 18 after a strong pullback in March and April. The pair found support around the 38,2% Fibo level measured from the low of Jan. 20 at 1,83416 and the high of Feb. 2 at 2,0028.

Possible positions for coming week

NZD/CHF

This pair will be analyzed briefly, for more information read the article Weekly Review Strategy Wk26 where the pair was tipped for going short. The pair is clearly in a downtrend and it is gaining momentum.  It broke convincingly through a previous significant bottom of January 22 at 0,6441. It is a pair to monitor in the coming week. The NZD is an average currency and has the lowest currency score at the moment of all currencies. The CHF is a strong currency and has a score of 6. With a score difference of 5 and the CHF being better classified it remains an interesting pair.

USD/JPY

This pair will be analyzed in detail. The pair succeeded last month to break through the highs of December 2014. This high was around 122 and this was a resistance level and now it has become a support level. In the last weeks the pair lost momentum but did not reach 122 and recovered again. It seems as this important support level has been tested especially after the rally of last Friday.

• As can be seen in the Currency Score chart in my previous article of this weekend the USD has a score of 7 and the JPY a score of 3. 
• In the current Ranking and Rating list of this weekend the pair has a rank of 9. This list is used as additional information besides the Currency score and the Technical Analysis charts.
• Besides the general information mentioned the outlook in the TA charts also makes this an attractive opportunity.
