GBPCAD - The GBP Is Unstoppable!Analysis: This is another setup that we see involving the GBP and this is pretty much the same as our GBPUSD setup. Firstly looking at price it's clear to see that we're in an upwards trend. We're forming higher highs and higher lows. We also have an upwards trendline which is being respected giving us even more confluence that we're in a strong upwards trend. Price formed this pullback last week which was expected, however we've now pulled back to an area that interests us and an area where we expect to see bullish momentum form. At this level we have a previous area of resistance. As we know resistance often becomes support once broken so this to us looks like a possible area of support. We have more confluences however which line up with our area making it not just a possible area of support but instead a strong area of support. At this level we have the 61.8% fib retracement level. This is often classed as the strongest fib retracement level meaning that we should see buyers step in and push price higher, going in favour of our idea. Another confluence that we have is the upwards trendline. When this trendline has been touched in the past we've see it be respected then the buyers step in and push price higher. History often repeats itself especially in trading so we expect this to happen. Again going in favour of our bullish thesis. The final technical confluence that we have is the slowing bearish momentum. On Friday last week we saw some bullish momentum step in and take control of the market, which is a strong sign to us that we could be seeing price reverse and continue its move to the upside. This morning we had some news that was negative for the GBP, however this move that we got, in our opinion was an over reaction and we expect to see price continue with the bullish momentum we saw come into the markets at the end of last week. We don't just have the technicals on our side but we also have the fundamentals. Currently the GBP is the 2nd strongest major currency whereas the CAD is the 4th strongest major currency giving us even more reason to be long on this pair. That's not the end of it though. As of the most recent COT report we saw an increase of 18K short positions and an increase of 24K long positions on the GBP, which is bullish. For the CAD however we have a different story. We saw an increase of 3K short positions, whilst seeing a decrease of 1K long positions. This is bearish for the CAD. Both the fundamentals and the technicals favour being long on this pair which is why we have a bullish bias. Please feel free to leave any comments you have and like this idea if you agree with us.

Selling Canadian Bacon.CADCHF broke the above trend line that market have been respecting for the last 2 years & 6 months. When a 2+ year trendline have been broken the market is trying to tell us something, if you look close enough you'll see market dropped 680 pips to break that trendline and is currently consolidating that move. When market decides to break the previous low made (0.71154), i see market dropping towards 0.68, a (-6.06%) decline from markets current position covering -438.6 pips. The CAD have been suffering due to falling oil prices and the CHF is benefiting as a safe haven & aggressive hikes from the SNB. Adjust STOPLOSS to suit your RISK plan.
