Anyone watching overbought USDCHF today?
Will it form a shooting star or engulfing pattern today/tomorrow with the 200P SMA sitting right on its top (D1 chart) and then collapse? Or will it attempt to touch psych level 0.90000 before it will eventually reverse?

Last Long signal was issued 20 days ago.

For the moment, there is no reason to sell this pair. (no sell signal on market)

Let's see how market will react from this psycho level.

Seems like there will be continuation of the uptrend. On the weeklly chart the pair has a wide space to run.

Sometimes it's worth to try/risk an early entry.
If there is no bearish signal in day chart yet, you could find one in a lower timeframe (i.e. 15min or 30min chart), open a short position based on that signal, let it run into profit, continuously keeping an eye on the higher timeframes. As soon as a signal occures in a higher TF, switch over to that TF, increase the distance of TP level accordingly, and so on...

Each one his own strategy. Mine isn't based on such low TimeFrame. I trade the trend. As long as the trend is unchanged , if I have to enter it would be into the major trend direction.

It's funny and paradoxal. I trade the trend and I'm a contrarian in the same time as 75% traders are short.

Well, USDCHF found resistance at the SMA200 (day chart) and formed a nice red bar on Friday. In hourly chart price clearly broke SMA200 support, retraced back to SMA200 and closed below it.
I further predict that it will continue to fall during the comming week and my next targets would be the SMA200 in 4-hours chart and the Ichimoku cloud / 50%-Fibo in day chart.

CrazyTrader, you said you don't trade in low time frames and that you follow the trend. But if you open weekly chart and monthly chart, you will see that USDCHF is in strong downtrend!

That is correct and the daily chart above shows that bearish trend. Sell signal has now been provided by market breaking down 0.8950 as mentionned above.

However, this pair seems to developp a stronger bullish move. Only a daily close below 0.8800 would cancel this outlook.

0.8800? Are you serious?
My short entry will be with the first strong bearish momentum bar in H1, M30 or even M15 after the markets open on Monday.

I vounched for you for your trading style description:
'Specializing in trend-following price breakouts with a strong rise in volume (momentum)...' => Keep following the trend... not only for 2 hours.

My followers are about to close 50 pips on being Long USDCHF @ 0.8941 from last friday: (Signal received by email)

There was a bullish spike today caused by fundamental news but price didn't close above SMA200 yet (day chart).

Thanks for the voucher btw :)
