Yesterday Recap: Pretty good day of trading yesterday as 3 trades were triggered as I capitalized on the tightening consolidation pattern of the pair. First was the aggressive sell triggered by the bearish break of 1.3580, which dropped for a quick 30 pips to rising support. That activated the primary long at 1.3550 which rose for 100 pips.

Daily Outlook: Despite the large up and down swing the daily outlook didn’t change a bit – the pair continues to consolidate in a tight triangle pattern with the overall downtrend still intact. I will look for a false breakout to occur to the topside, possibly even challenge the stronger falling trend resistance on the daily charts (you can just see the top of it – its the top blue line) currently around 1.3700.

Trading Idea: Not as aggressive today as we are running out of room to maneuver in this pattern. Primary trade is a short on a signal under 1.3700 resistance, with targets at 1.3670, 1.3640, 1.3605 and eventually 1.3560. Secondary trade is a bearish break of 1.3620 support could trigger a run to the trend support again (currently at 1.3570).
