General Market Outlook - September 28th, 2014

Unlike last week, I actually had an hour everyday to watch the markets this week; which worked out for the best because it put me into scalper mode instead of swing trader mode.

In what little time I had to trade, I noticed the scalper range on USD/JPY and just set my orders accordingly. Granted, I didn't catch the whole range but 60 pips x 3 = +180 pips is pretty good for a few hours of "work".

Not being in swing trader mode saved me from taking losing positions on AUD/USD and EUR/USD. All of my levels of interest were wiped out, which gives me a chance of getting in at even better prices now.

-------------------------------------------------

AUD/USD (Bullish): With price sitting on the blue trend line right now, I'm interested in loading some longs at market open today.
> Stop loss depends on your risk tolerance, the widest stop you should set is under 0.866X (100+ pips)

EUR/USD (Bullish): My previous level of 1.275X was merely support. I noticed the 1.265X level acted as support and resistance at one point in time. So I'm interested in loading up some longs as we get closer to 1.265X.
> Risk tolerance shouldn't really be a factor on this trade because the most you should risk is 50 pips (1.260X)

GBP/USD: No comment

USD/CAD: Broke the upper trend line, looks like it's heading towards the 1.127X level

USD/JPY (Bearish): As mentioned above, I was scalping 60 pips each time this bounced within the range this week.
> With price sitting at the monthly downward trend line, I'm still bearish on this pair, so I'm interested in loading some shorts at market open today.
> Stop loss depends on your risk tolerance, the widest stop you should set is 110.5X (130+ pips)

XAG/USD (Bearish): Might get a retrace back up to 18.8X but should keep dropping after that.
