Geovanni412: Today market just dey look funny on eurusd
I can't see a blinker of trading opportunity
Na to close shop unless magic happens due to news and move of 70 pips appears 
How u take see am? I don't have any sell bias on any USD pair for now especially eurusd except if price broke below that blue line.if I see any buy chart pattern on lower tf I will be buy small small till it get to that box at middle.when price finally broke the box and retest.that is when I will be buying with better lot size.

Geovanni412: Na so 
Houseboy to audusd.
I no suppose look am but once news enter...ma usually one way traffic for both of them
Good idea to stick to the normal six pairs you mentioned or trim it down to three.
If you're trading six pairs, indirectly, you are trading twelve pairs.
Unless you choose negatively correlated pairs.
Do you have the energy to monitor twelve charts? Normal I don't believe in fa.i do only ta and anyway market face that is where news push it more to the direction.i don't need to monitor many everyone of them I just need check the one with trade opportunity.gbpjpy have been ranging since Monday and it just broke the range.i will be waiting retest.only need to for opportunity.the usdcad I open yesterday.i have been watching it since last week.

Geovanni412: Damn....you could have taken a trade on nzdusd instead
News came out by 11:54 pm.
Moved by Abt 30 pips
Here's what I observed:
Nzdusd and audusd can move well even without eurusd moving because of thinner liquidity
Both pairs are moved heavily by news
Also, I observed that recently euraud and audusd have negative correlation and eurnzd and nzdusd have negative correlation
I used this info to check my nzdusd trade I took this morning on a $100 cent acct.
Details on nature of audusd and nzdusd movement are explained in depth in that currency book by Brian Dolan I mentioned earlier.
Boss, that eurgbp is a cross and is hard to call.
Eurgbp can correlate +/- to gbpusd or gbpchf or eurusd depending on the nature of the news.
I think it's best to target it around major news event day like tomorrow for gbp.
For all news, use forexfactory website to check. I have long removed nzdusd from my watchlist since I notice it's houseboy to AUDusd. I will decide to stick to normal six pair I start with. Thanks for your contribution. |

As for gbpjpy
I advice you read the book on currency trading for dummies by Brian Dolan
Forget the funny title name...
There is a passage there on trading crosses like eurjpy and gbpjpy...
I read it this morning, it says...
If you find an opportunity on crosses, trade the cross alone. If you see a trade on gbpjpy, do not expect to see the same trade on usdjpy or the reverse trade on gbpusd, trade that cross opportunity alone.
You'll also find more specific information on how particular pairs move (audusd, usdjpy, eurusd)
On audusd and nzdusd, they are like twins
USD pairs tend to move in one direction but sometimes they might differ in timing.
Jpy pairs , eurjpy might move down while usdjpy is still ranging. If you check July 25, you'll observe this. Thanks I will check the book |
Investment › Re: My Forex Journey by randy01(op): 9:43am On Jul 29, 2023 |
Geovanni412: Audusd and eurusd are strongly correlated
You are doubling your risk if you trade both of them 70% of the time
Usdjpy and gbpjpy has a significantly strong correlation.
Usdjpy and gbpusd are negatively correlated especially during news events
My observation is that when usdjpy ranges, gbpusd will trend for a short while within that day and vice versa.
The pairs tend to lag each other in movement from time to time.
https://www.myfxbook.com/forex-market/correlation/USDJPY
My two cents:
Try focus on eurusd and usdchf. Both are negatively correlated.
Or focus on usdjpy pair when you notice gbpusd ranging and vice versa. Special thanks bro. I have noticed almost All USD pair move same and jpy follow each order.nzdusd was on down trend sometimes last month and I was trading it.immediately AUDusd move up nzdusd just reverse and follow without forming any reversing pattern even on lower tf which is why I was buying gbpjpy and also selling AUDusd. I always trade it against each other since I notice that. Thank you bro.one love |
