Hello
everyone, it’s Dale here with a new weekly trading ideas video. Today, weโre
going to take a look at EUR/USD, GBP/USD, and NQ. So,
letโs get to it.
What
you see before you is the EUR/USD chart. Itโs a 30-minute time frame,
and today Iโd like to show you a resistance here at 1.1737. As you can
see, the market opened with a gap right here โ this was the gap. Before the
gap, let me use the Volume Profile here โ there was a heavy volume zone, this
one. This is actually a setup that I really like to trade. You wonโt see this
very often because Forex doesnโt open with gaps too frequently, but when it
does, and it forms a gap with a heavy volume zone behind it, then itโs a
perfect chance to trade this setup.
So
this is what you want to see: the gap, and behind that, the heavy volume zone.
Then you want to wait for a pullback to the beginning of that heavy volume
zone. I placed the level here because itโs also the beginning of a fair value
gap, and I plan to go short from there. There should be a reaction from this
heavy volume zone. The first thing is that the gap needs to get filled. Once it
does, the reaction is very likely to occur โ like this. Thatโs why Iโm waiting
here with a limit order at 1.1737. When the price hits this level, Iโm going
short.
By
the way, you can also notice that this level is the point of control from the
previous week. The gray profile on the left is the weekly profile from last
week, meaning from this whole area โ and this is the weekly point of control,
which is almost exactly at our level. This adds strength to the level because
the price went down from this place, which means the weekly point of control
should work as a resistance.
By
the way, you can also see that I had a long level here on EUR/USD โ this
level. I was trading from this significant volume cluster, which formed within
this rejection. This is where I went long, and honestly, my take profit was
just one pip above this reaction. So, this is where my take profit was. When
the price reacted to that level, I moved my stop, which originally was here, a
bit higher to this place โ the reaction point.
When
the price was one pip before my take profit, there was unexpected news that the
French Prime Minister resigned โ and boom, all this happened within one minute.
Complete reversal in one minute. Tough luck! Iโd say if he had resigned one
minute later, this would have been a profitable trade. Anyway, thatโs for the
euro.
Now,
letโs move to the British pound. On GBP/USD, weโre also looking at a
30-minute chart, and hereโs the same setup as on the euro because we have an
opening gap. Behind the gap, thereโs a significant volume zone โ this one. You
do it the same way as I showed you on the euro. You wait for a pullback, and
when the price hits this level at 1.3475 โ where the gap gets filled and
the price reaches the beginning of the heavy volume zone โ thereโs a high
probability of a reaction, and the price will likely go down from there.
So,
this is a significant resistance. Iโm currently waiting with a pending order
here at 1.3475. Now, Iโm not saying this needs to happen today, but gaps
usually get filled rather quickly, so my guess is that this will happen today
or maybe tomorrow. Even if it takes a week, I donโt really mind โ Iโll still
wait here with a limit order. My guess is that it will get filled sooner rather
than later.
All
right, thatโs the British pound. Letโs now switch over to the NQ.
This
is the NQ, and what I wanted to show you here is a support at 24,680.
Let me use the Volume Profile here โ by the way, youโre looking at a 30-minute
chart. This is a significant rejection of lower prices because there were
sellers trying to push the price down, but buyers stepped in here, in this
heavy volume zone. This is where buyers started to buy aggressively and
reversed the sell-off into a new uptrend.
So
this is a very important place โ this whole rejection. The most important part
of that rejection is this heavy volume zone because this is where you can
clearly see that buyers stepped in, and those buyers are likely to defend this
place in the future as well. If thereโs a pullback, chances are thereโll be a
reaction, as the buyers from here will want to defend this place, which is
clearly important for them.
