EURUSD Daily Chart
2 Bar Pushes Higher
In last week’s trade ideas we were looking at the 2 bar reversal and what would happen around the major daily support level that had just been tested.
After breaking above the bullish 2 bar reversal price moved back higher and now looks to test the immediate resistance.
Whilst there have been some large moves in this pair this year, price is still ranging without a clear trend.
This range along with the fairly clear support and resistance levels allow trading both sides of the market when high probability trigger signals form at the major support or resistance levels.

Watching Close Resistance
After a huge sell off lower price finally moved back into the major support level and popped higher.
As the weekly chart shows below there is a bullish pin bar that rejects this long term support level.
This looks a tricky market because just overhead is a box resistance area that price would need to move into and break higher through to make a sustained move higher.

Weekly Pin Bar
Similar to the EURAUD, the AUDSGD has also formed a weekly pin bar, just inverse.
We discussed this market recently and the many resistance levels price had coming up.
The resistance level that price has made a false break through now looks to be crucial for this market.
If this level holds as a resistance, then the next solid move lower could come into play. This level could also be a potential area to hunt smaller time frame trades with A+ trigger signals.

False Break of Resistance
In the past week there have been a lot of false breaks or attempted breakouts that had little follow through.
This is being seen in many markets at the moment as price is uncertain where it wants to go.
Whilst the weekly chart of this market shows a large false break pin bar, the daily chart highlights the uncertainty.
Price on the daily chart tested the resistance level and formed a false break pin bar. Price was not able to confirm the pin bar and move lower and we saw the large false break follow.
