Forex Signals – EURUSD Gap Zone

By:

Recap: EU opened with a bullish large gap as hopes have been raised (or at least modestly improved) of a Greek bailout package getting approved by the ECB. The bailout comes with strict austerity provisions, provisions that could hurt the Greek recovery. We are short-term bullish at the moment, but there is a decent rising trend support forming:

Trading Idea: We will take an aggressive short on a break of rising trend support with targets down to the Friday close (20/20/25/25 for 90 pips). We will keep our SL tight and move to BE on the first target.

We are bullish in the medium term and will look to close our short and get long when a falling trend resistance forms (this is the more conservative trade if you skip the aggressive short primary trade).

    reason for this trade, a Three inside down, (Bearish Engulfing Pattern) on 60 TF which can give us the chance for some down movement in hourly

    @luxmafx says:

    but pay attention all shorter TFs offers bullish pattern and candle closing which can take the SL very easy but RR for this trade is good at the moment
