Shooting Star

USDJPY high around 143.800The dollar has been in a weak uptrend for the past few hours so I decided to take advantage of some indecision at a high. Price presented a shooting star on the 30minute chart as well as a strong bearish engulfing on the 5min at the exact area needed for a short. This area is exactly where price closed at then was immediately rejected on last Friday (6/23). This retest could be early considering NY session is hours away. Also the lower timeframes haven't began creating lower low yet.

USDJPY rejected at 4H Lower HighI decided to short UJ here as the 4H shooting star at a re-tested area was a bearish enough signal for me to go short. Price has been making Lower Highs on 4H and daily chart. The bullish candles have been forming with a lot of indecision. This entry was taken based on the 4H close, as well as the 1H presenting a strong evening star at a Evening star re-test. My entry was upon a bearish 15min engulfing at a potential high/re-test of resistance. My stop loss is just Above the high of the shooting star. My target is the next daily Lower Low.

Ethereum is retracing to create its lower highIt's a great thing we're no longer fooled by big big candles being a big move. Proce closed pretty Bullish on Sunday only adding to the combination of randomness . Anytime price created a lower low, I project and expect it tush lower after a retest. This is exactly what price is doing, a reversal candlestick at a key area suggests its almost time to short. If anything price has determined where it wants to slow down. This 61.8 retracement is no surprise considering the fact that the weekly was rejected earlier when price attempted to break it. It seems price wants another crack at rejection. I'll short here since the 30min and 1H is already creating lower lows and lower highs upon reaching that area.

Potential High for usdjpy, intraday short setup 30mminUSDJPY has been uptrending rather strong for quite a few weeks now. Its common that you'd like to go go against the trend, however, the only way to learn how to trade reversals is to trade them. Price presented a volatile shooting star for the close of Thursday. (4H). The daily had some wick action also. The 1H had a moving average crossover to the downside before making the latest high. the 30Min has already created a srtrong eveing star and began downtrending on its 2nd lower low. Im looking to get in on the Lower high. A counter trend trade short back down to Weekly support.

So lets dive in and see how to use this powerful technique in your trading arsenal. Enjoy! Trade Well, Clifford
